Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of combined heat and power generation, in particular to a novel combined heat and power generation control device. Background Art
[0002] Combined heat and power (CHP) has become a mature energy utilization technology in many countries and regions. Patent CN210041755U proposes a solar CHP control system, including a concentrating photovoltaic array, a heat medium tank, an adjustable pump device for a cold medium tank, and a control device. The control device can adjust the pumping flow of the adjustable pumping device so that the flow rate fed into the CPV array matches the heat exchange capacity of the CPV array, thereby maintaining a relatively stable temperature of the heat exchange medium flowing out of the CPV array. This avoids the use of large-sized heat tank media, thereby reducing system costs. Analysis reveals that this solar CHP control system has the following shortcomings: First, it cannot adjust the specific temperature of the delivered heat exchange medium; and second, it is not suitable for small-scale users, such as households.

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Example
[0022] like Figure 1 and2 As shown, a novel cogeneration control device proposed in one embodiment of the present invention includes a relay water tank 1. The top of the relay water tank 1 is connected to a water inlet pipe 2. The middle of the water inlet pipe 2 is connected to an electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3. The water inlet elbow on the left side of the top of the electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3 is connected to a solar water heater 4. The water inlet elbow on the right side of the top of the electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3 is connected to an electric water heater 5. One side of the bottom end of the relay water tank 1 is connected to a water outlet pipe 6. The middle of the water outlet pipe 6 is connected to a water outlet valve 7.
[0023] A valve switching controller 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the relay water tank 1, and the output end of the valve switching controller 8 is electrically connected to the electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3. A thermal relay switch 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom end of the relay water tank 1. The temperature measuring probe of the thermal relay switch 9 extends to the bottom end of the inner cavity of the relay water tank 1, and the output end battery cell of the thermal relay switch 9 is connected to the valve switching controller 8.
[0024] In this embodiment, the electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3 is a commercially available HG61AC-B type electrically controlled three-way valve, which connects the solar water heater 4 to the relay water tank 1 when the power is off, and connects the electric water heater 5 to the relay water tank 1 when the power is on;
[0025] When the power is off, the water in the solar water heater 4 flows into the relay water tank 1. At this time, the thermal relay switch 9 detects the temperature of the water in the relay water tank 1 through its temperature measuring probe. When the temperature reaches the set value, for example, fifty degrees Celsius, the electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3 continues to connect to the solar water heater 4, allowing the hot water therein to continue to flow into the relay water tank 1. When the thermal relay switch 9 detects that the temperature of the water in the relay water tank 1 is lower than the set value, the valve switching controller 8 controls the electrically controlled three-way switching valve 3 to be connected to the electric water heater 5. At this time, the hot water in the electric water heater 5 flows into the relay water tank 1, maintaining the water flow temperature of the relay water tank 1 and the water outlet valve 7.
[0026] This novel cogeneration control device can flexibly use the hot water in the solar water heater 4 and the electric water heater 5 according to demand, and flexibly switch through the electronically controlled three-way switching valve 3 to adjust the water temperature, thereby adjusting the specific temperature of the heat exchange medium and making comprehensive and orderly use of multiple energy sources.
[0027] Furthermore, a battery 10 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the relay water tank 1, and the battery 10 is electrically connected to the power supply end of the valve switching controller 8 to provide power to the valve switching controller 8 so as to enable it to perform the above-mentioned control of the electric-controlled three-way switching valve 3.
[0028] Furthermore, the relay water tank 1 includes a bottom box 101, the front of which is fixedly connected to a transparent plastic cover 102 by screws, and a sealing ring 103 is engaged between the bottom box 101 and the transparent plastic cover 102. Therefore, the capacity of the water body in the relay water tank 1 can be observed through the transparent plastic cover 102.
[0029] Furthermore, the thermal relay switch 9 is an XH-W3002 digital display adjustable temperature control switch.
[0030] The XH-W3002 digital display adjustable temperature control switch can set the starting temperature, and its temperature adjustment range is from -50 degrees to 110 degrees. Therefore, the temperature in the relay water tank 1 can be set according to demand. When the temperature is higher than the adjusted set value, the valve switching controller 8 is powered off. At this time, the electric three-way switching valve 3 is connected to the solar water heater 4 to inject water into the relay water tank 1. When the temperature is lower than the adjusted set value, an adjustment signal is sent to the valve switching controller 8 to control the electric three-way switching valve 3 to connect the electric water heater 5 to inject water into the relay water tank 1.
[0031] Furthermore, a mounting ear hole 104 is fixedly provided on the back side of the relay water tank 1. The mounting ear hole 104 can fix the relay water tank 1 on a wall or a bracket, making it easier for construction workers to install it.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
