DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0030] The structural diagram of the existing heat exchange unit with a water supply tank is as follows: Figure 3 As shown; the utility model proposes a water replenishment structure for a heat exchanger unit, which eliminates the traditional water replenishment tank and adopts the method of directly connecting the primary side return water pipe to the water replenishment main pipe for water replenishment. This design not only saves space, but also reduces costs. The specific implementation is as follows:

[0031] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a water replenishment structure of a heat exchange unit includes a primary water network and a secondary water network, wherein the primary water network and the secondary water network perform heat transfer in the heat exchange unit and transfer heat to the secondary water network, the primary water network includes a primary side water supply pipe and a primary side return pipe; the secondary water network includes a secondary side water supply pipe and a secondary side return pipe;

[0032] It also includes a water replenishment structure; the water replenishment structure includes a water replenishment main pipeline 13 and a water replenishment pump 8, and the water replenishment pump 8 is arranged on the water replenishment main pipeline 13 to provide the pressure required for water replenishment;

[0033] The water inlet end of the water supply main pipe 13 is connected to the primary side return pipe; the water outlet end of the water supply main pipe 13 is connected to the secondary side return pipe; the water supply main pipe 13 replenishes the water in the primary side return pipe into the secondary side return pipe;

[0034] The water replenishment main pipeline 13 is provided with a solenoid valve 5, which is opened or closed according to a control signal to control the water replenishment work.

[0035] Furthermore, a first manual valve 4 and a second manual valve 7 are respectively provided upstream and downstream of the solenoid valve 5. When the first manual valve 4 and the second manual valve 7 are both opened, water flows in the main pipeline, passes through the solenoid valve 5, and the water flow is controlled by the solenoid valve 5.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes a bypass pipe 14; the bypass pipe 14 is connected in parallel to the water supply main pipe 13; the bypass pipe 14 and the solenoid valve 5 are in parallel relationship; the input end of the bypass pipe 14 is arranged upstream of the first manual valve 4, and the output end of the bypass pipe 14 is arranged downstream of the second manual valve 7;

[0037] An emergency water replenishment valve 6 is arranged on the bypass pipe 14. The emergency water replenishment valve 6 serves as a bypass valve of the solenoid valve 5 and is used for emergency water replenishment when the solenoid valve 5 fails. When the solenoid valve 5 fails, the first manual valve 4 and the second manual valve 7 are closed, and the emergency water replenishment valve 6 is opened. The water flow in the water replenishment main pipe 13 will flow into the bypass pipe 14, bypassing the solenoid valve 5 and continuing to flow downward from the bypass pipe 14 to perform water replenishment work.

[0038] Furthermore, a return water pressure transmitter 2 is provided on the primary-side return water pipeline, and the return water pressure transmitter 2 is used to monitor the pressure of the primary-side return water pipeline.

[0039] A secondary return water pressure transmitter 12 is provided on the secondary return water pipeline, and the secondary return water pressure transmitter 12 is used to monitor the pressure of the secondary return water pipeline.

[0040] Furthermore, it also includes a main water inlet valve 1 and a main water outlet valve 11; the main water inlet valve 1 is arranged on the main water supply pipeline 13 near the primary side return water pipeline, and the main water inlet valve 1 is used to control the primary return water to flow into the main water supply pipeline 13;

[0041] The water outlet main valve 11 is arranged at the end of the water supply main pipeline 13 to control the water outlet.

[0042] Furthermore, it also includes a filter 3, which is arranged on the water supply main pipeline 13 and located between the main water inlet valve 1 and the solenoid valve 5; the filter 3 is used to filter impurities in the water flowing into the water supply main pipeline 13.

[0043] Furthermore, a check valve 9 is included, which is arranged downstream of the water supply pump 8 to prevent the water from flowing in the reverse direction.

[0044] Furthermore, it also includes a water replenishment flow meter 10, which is arranged on the water replenishment main pipeline 13, between the check valve 9 and the main water outlet valve 11, and is used to monitor the water replenishment flow.

[0045] The working principle and process are as follows:

[0046] First, open the main water inlet valve 1, let the water flow from the primary side return water pipe into the water supply main pipe 13 and pass through the filter 3. The filter 3 can effectively filter impurities in the water flow to prevent impurities from clogging the solenoid valve 5. Then open the first manual valve 4, the second manual valve 7 and the main water outlet valve 11, and close the emergency water supply valve 6. When the pressure value of the secondary side return water pipe detected by the second network return water pressure transmitter 12 is lower than the set value, the solenoid valve 5 is opened through the PLC output signal, and the water supply pump 8 is turned on after an interval of 3 seconds. While replenishing water, the pressure value of the primary side return water pipe is detected by the first network return water pressure transmitter 2. If the pressure value is lower than 0.5 bar, the water supply structure stops replenishing water and generates an alarm to prevent the pressure value from being too low and causing the water supply pump 8 to burn due to lack of water. When the pressure value detected by the first network return water pressure transmitter 2 is greater than 0.5 bar, the system replenishes water normally. When the pressure value detected by the second network return water pressure transmitter 12 reaches the PLC set value, the water supply pump 8 is turned off and the solenoid valve 5 is closed at the same time. In this way, a cycle of water replenishment is completed.

[0047] It should be noted that if the pressure value of the primary side return pipe is always higher than the pressure value of the secondary side return pipe, the water supply pump 8 does not need to provide additional power, and only the solenoid valve 5 can be opened to carry out water supply work; when the pressure value of the primary side return pipe is lower than the pressure value of the secondary side return pipe, the solenoid valve 5 and the water supply pump 8 need to be opened at the same time to carry out water supply work;

[0048] The emergency water supply valve 6 is a bypass valve of the solenoid valve 5. When the solenoid valve 5 fails, the emergency water supply valve 6 can be opened manually, and the first manual valve 4 and the second manual valve 7 can be closed to perform emergency manual water supply.

[0049] The embodiments of the present invention are provided for the purpose of illustration and description, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and thereby design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific uses.
