[0022] The first network water supply main 24, the first network return water main 25, the second network water supply main 21, and the second network return water main 22 are all connected to the heat exchanger 4; the first network circulation pump group module 2 is installed on the first network water supply main 24, the second network circulation pump group module 17 is installed on the second network water supply main 21, the first network heat metering device 1 is installed on the first network return water main 25, and the second network flow meter 20 is installed on the second network return water main 22; the first network heat metering device 1, the second network flow meter 20, the first network circulation pump group module 2, and the second network circulation pump group module 17 are all connected to the control cabinet 23; the heat exchanger 4 is an exchanger for the first network hot water and the second network cold water in the heat exchange process.

[0023] After the hot water of the first network passes through the first network circulation pump group module 2 and the temperature sensor and pressure sensor installed on the first network water supply main 24 to adjust the flow, the hot water provided by the first network water supply main 24 exchanges heat with the second network circulating water pressurized by the second network circulation pump group module 17 in the heat exchanger 4, and the heat of the first network is transferred to the second network.

[0024] The one-network circulating pump group module 2 includes a one-network circulating water pump 2-1, a one-network frequency converter 2-2, a one-network check valve 2-3, a one-network inlet butterfly valve 2-4 and a one-network outlet butterfly valve 2-5.

[0025] The circulating water pumps in the first network circulating pump group module and the second network circulating pump group module both use three circulating water pumps connected in parallel, and each of the parallel circulating water pumps is a water pump with the same head and different flow rates.

[0026] The circulating water pump 2-1 of the first network adjusts the pressure of the circulating water of the first network appropriately according to the data provided by the temperature sensor and pressure sensor on the water supply pipe 24 of the first network and the operating temperature of the second network. The circulating water pump 2-1 adopts the parallel connection of large, medium and small pumps, and the head of each pump is similar. The flow rate of a single pump is configured at 70%, 50% and 30% of the total circulating flow rate respectively to meet the variable flow operation requirements of the system, improve the problem of low efficiency of the water pump under low load and improve the operation efficiency of the water pump. The circulating water pump 2-1 of the first network is all fully variable frequency controlled, and the circulating water pump 21 and the frequency converter 22 adopt an integrated design, which is more compact. The frequency conversion and addition and subtraction pump of the circulating water pump 2-1 of the first network are controlled by comparing the pressure sensor and temperature sensor set on the water supply main pipe 24 of the first network and the temperature sensor on the water supply main pipe 22 of the second network with the set value in the control cabinet 23.

[0029] The circulating water pump 17-1 pressurizes the circulating water of the second network to overcome the circulation resistance of the second network system and provide a suitable flow to meet the normal heating of the most unfavorable end of the second network. The second network circulating water pump 17-1 adopts a parallel connection of large, medium and small pumps. The head of each pump is similar.

The second network circulating water pump 17-1 is all fully variable frequency controlled. The second network circulating water pump 17-1 and the second network inverter 17-2 adopt an integrated design, which is more compact. The frequency conversion and addition and subtraction pump of the second network circulating water pump 17-1 are controlled by the pressure difference of the pressure sensors set on the second network water supply main pipe 21 and the second network return water main pipe 22.
