Description
Technical Field

Background Art
[0002] The parallel refrigeration compressor unit is a refrigeration unit composed of two or more compressors installed in parallel on a rack to jointly provide cooling for the cold storage. It consists of a rack, several compressors, exhaust manifolds, liquid supply manifolds, return air manifolds, oil separators, liquid storage tanks, filters, various stop valves, various control valves and control systems. It can adjust energy according to the final cooling capacity required by the cold storage. It has the characteristics of centralized control, remote control and reliable operation, and is widely used in cold storage or large cold storage.
[0003] At present, the superheated high-pressure circulating working fluid discharged from the parallel refrigeration compressor unit passes through the oil separator, and the lubricating oil is separated into the oil separator, while the refrigerant gas in the superheated high-pressure state directly enters the condenser. As the main heat exchange equipment in the refrigeration system, the condenser can exchange heat between the superheated high-pressure refrigerant gas entering it and the spray water and air outside the evaporative condenser discharge pipe, that is, the gaseous refrigerant enters the discharge pipe from the upper port of the evaporative condenser and gradually condenses into liquid refrigerant from top to bottom, and part of the spray water absorbs the heat of the superheated high-pressure refrigerant and becomes gaseous, and a large amount of heat energy of the spray water is taken away by the matching induced draft fan. However, the heat of the superheated high-pressure refrigerant discharged by the parallel refrigeration compressor directly enters the outside air through the evaporative condenser, and the exhaust working fluid heat of the parallel refrigeration compressor unit is not fully recovered and utilized, resulting in a large amount of heat energy dissipation and energy consumption.
[0004] In view of this, in order to improve the recovery rate of the exhaust working fluid heat of the parallel refrigeration compressor unit and convert the exhaust working fluid heat into a reusable energy form, a system that can recover and reuse the heat energy is urgently needed.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows: a parallel unit exhaust medium heat recovery system based on a high-pressure float switch, comprising a refrigeration compressor, an evaporative condenser, a vertical liquid storage device, a hot water recovery tank and a plate heat exchanger, wherein a plurality of refrigeration compressors are installed on a rack in parallel, a return air header is connected to the air inlet of a plurality of refrigeration compressors through a plurality of return air pipes, and the exhaust ports of the plurality of refrigeration compressors are connected to the exhaust header through a plurality of exhaust pipes, and the end of the exhaust header is connected to the condenser through the condenser.

[0007] Furthermore, a high-pressure float switch is installed on the plate heat exchanger liquid outlet pipe near the outlet on the lower left side of the plate heat exchanger, a stop valve is installed at the outlet of the high-pressure float switch, and stop valves are respectively installed on the plate heat exchanger high-temperature inlet pipe, the plate heat exchanger cold water inlet pipe and the plate heat exchanger hot water outlet pipe.
[0008] Furthermore, a water supply pump is installed at the open end of the plate heat exchanger cold water inlet pipe, and the inlet of the water supply pump is connected to the water reservoir through a pipeline.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the utility model proposes a parallel unit exhaust fluid heat recovery system based on a high-pressure float switch. By adding a plate heat exchanger based on a high-pressure float switch, the exhaust fluid heat of the refrigeration compressor can be converted into hot water, thereby realizing the recovery and utilization of the exhaust fluid heat.
