Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of waste heat energy from air conditioners, and in particular to a heat recovery type refrigeration cycle system for a computer room air conditioner. Background Art

[0002] During winter operation, computer room air conditioners must exhaust heat from the room through a refrigeration cycle to maintain a suitable temperature and humidity. However, this exhausted heat contains a significant amount of thermal energy, which is typically discharged outdoors through the refrigeration cycle, effectively wasting energy. Heat recovery technology uses specific devices and systems to recycle this otherwise wasted heat. For example, the recovered heat can be used for domestic hot water supply, swimming pool heating, and other purposes, thereby achieving energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0003] Existing heat recovery solutions for computer room air conditioners primarily include air-to-air and water-to-water. The air-to-air solution uses a heat exchanger to exchange hot air exhausted from the computer room with cold air drawn in from outside. This preheats the cold air before supplying it to other rooms, reducing the heating load on the air conditioners in those rooms. The water-to-water solution uses a heat exchanger to exchange cooling water from the computer room air conditioner system with other systems requiring hot water.

[0004] With the rapid development of technologies such as cloud computing, big data, the Internet of Things, and 5G, some enterprises and institutions are establishing computer rooms to meet their business needs. Since some small computer rooms may be used to process relatively small amounts of data and business, they may not be suitable for installing traditional heat recovery systems due to cost and space constraints.

[0005] Common air-to-air heat recovery solutions and water-to-water heat recovery solutions can both recycle heat that would otherwise be wasted. Although these solutions can meet the requirements of energy conservation and consumption reduction and improve energy comprehensive utilization efficiency, they still have some shortcomings.

[0006] Air-to-air heat recovery solutions: First, their heat recovery efficiency is limited. Due to temperature differentials and unstable air flow, it is often difficult to achieve a high level of heat recovery efficiency. Therefore, the amount of heat that can be transferred through air-to-air heat exchange is limited. Second, air quality can affect the air quality and the normal operation of the equipment in the computer room. Without a good filtration system, long-term use of air-to-air heat recovery may cause the air quality in the computer room to gradually deteriorate. Third, air-to-air heat exchangers are generally large and require a certain amount of space. For computer rooms with limited space, installing heat exchangers can be difficult.

[0007] Water-to-water heat recovery solution: First, the system complexity increases. Water-to-water heat recovery requires additional piping systems, heat exchangers, and control devices, which makes the entire computer room air conditioning system more complicated and increases the possibility of failure. Complex systems also require professional maintenance personnel to perform regular inspections and maintenance, which increases maintenance costs. Second, the water quality requirements are high. Water-to-water heat exchange has high requirements for water quality. If the water quality is poor, it may cause scaling and corrosion inside the heat exchanger, reducing heat exchange efficiency and even damaging the heat exchanger. Third, the computer room has strict requirements on continuous operation time, and the water piping system has the risk of leakage, which can easily damage the equipment in the computer room and cause losses.

[0008] In view of this, the main purpose of this application is to provide a heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system, which is conducive to solving the problems that the existing technology is not suitable for small computer rooms, and the existing technology has problems such as low efficiency, high cost, and difficult maintenance.

[0009] The present application provides a heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system, which includes:

[0016] From the above, the present application sets the heat exchanger on the machine room side (i.e. the indoor unit of the machine room air conditioner) in parallel with the heat recovery control mechanism to improve energy utilization efficiency; in the existing conventional machine room air conditioning refrigeration system, a flow control mechanism and a heat recovery control mechanism for switching the flow direction of the refrigerant medium are added, so that the waste heat generated by the machine room during winter cooling can be provided to other places in need for heating through the heat recovery control mechanism, and no additional electricity is needed when heating other rooms in winter, so it is more energy-efficient. By integrating the heat recovery function into the existing machine room air conditioning refrigeration system, the need to install an additional set of The independent heat recovery system reduces costs and saves installation space. The branch pipe enables the heat recovery computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system to provide cooling services for two indoor units (i.e., the heat exchanger on the computer room side and the heat recovery side) at the same time in summer, and to perform cooling and heating separately in winter to meet the needs of different seasons. The throttling device can automatically adjust the refrigerant medium flow according to actual operating conditions to ensure the optimal superheat inside the air conditioner indoor unit, thereby improving efficiency and saving energy.

[0022] Optionally, the first control valve, the second control valve and the third control valve include solenoid valves.

[0023] As described above, the solenoid valve has a fast response speed, which enables the heat recovery computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system to quickly adjust the flow path of the refrigerant medium; during the heat recovery process, the solenoid valve can accurately adjust the amount of refrigerant entering the heat recovery heat exchanger, thereby improving the heat recovery efficiency; the solenoid valve has a simple structure, a relatively low failure rate, and a correspondingly low maintenance cost.

[0024] Optionally, the flow direction control mechanism includes a four-way reversing valve.

[0025] As shown above, the four-way reversing valve can change the flow direction of the refrigerant medium, thereby realizing the switching of the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system between different modes; by adjusting the flow direction of the refrigerant medium by the four-way reversing valve, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged by the compressor can be fully utilized for heat recovery without the need for additional electricity consumption; the four-way reversing valve has a simple structure, reduces installation complexity and cost, and improves space utilization.

[0026] Optionally, one end of the flow direction control mechanism is connected to the first branch pipeline in the three-pronged pipeline, and the other ends of the flow direction control mechanism are respectively connected to the medium outlet side of the compressor, the medium outlet side of the heat recovery control mechanism, and the medium inlet side of the condenser, and further includes:

[0028] The D port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the pipeline on the medium outlet side of the compressor;

[0029] The S port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the medium outlet side pipeline of the heat recovery control mechanism provided with the second control valve;

[0030] The C port of the four-way reversing valve is connected to the pipeline on the medium inlet side of the condenser.

[0031] From the above, by rationally configuring the four-way reversing valve and its port connections, the heat recovery computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system can provide dual-inner cooling in summer and realize the function of one inner cooling and the other inner heating in winter, meeting the needs of different seasons.

[0032] Optionally, a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor are provided on the medium inlet side and the medium outlet side pipeline of the compressor, wherein a high-pressure switch is also provided on the medium outlet side pipeline of the compressor, and the pressure sensor, the temperature sensor and the high-pressure switch are electrically connected to the controller.

[0033] As shown above, the high-pressure switch, as a safety device, will automatically trigger an alarm and cut off the power supply when it detects that the preset safety pressure is exceeded, preventing safety accidents caused by excessive pressure; the controller can automatically adjust the working mode of the heat recovery computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system based on the information feedback from the pressure sensor and temperature sensor, such as switching the state of the four-way reversing valve and adjusting the opening of the electronic expansion valve, thereby improving the convenience and reliability of operation.

[0034] Optionally, the throttling device includes a first electronic expansion valve.

[0035] As mentioned above, the electronic expansion valve can adjust the flow of the refrigerant medium in real time according to system requirements. By receiving data from the sensor, the controller can adjust its valve opening to ensure that the refrigerant medium flow matches the current load to improve heat exchange efficiency and system performance.

[0036] Optionally, a second expansion valve is provided on the medium outlet side pipeline of the heat exchanger on the heat recovery side.

[0037] Optionally, a third expansion valve is provided on the medium inlet side pipeline of the machine room side heat exchanger.

[0039] In summary, the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system provided by the present application, when the computer room air conditioning is cooling in winter, uses the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged from the compressor, which first flows through the heat recovery side heat exchanger for heat dissipation through the added flow control mechanism and heat recovery control mechanism, and then enters the condenser, and realizes heat recovery through the refrigerant medium circulation inside the system, without the need to add a separate heat recovery system, reducing costs and saving installation space. Compared with the conventional method of adding a separate heat recovery system, the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system is more integrated, and the waste heat generated during cooling is directly recovered to the heat recovery computer room air conditioning The refrigeration cycle system is adjusted to generate heat, so that heating in winter does not require additional electricity consumption, which is more energy-efficient; when the heat recovery side heat exchanger needs to be operated for cooling, the flow direction of the refrigerant medium on the heat recovery side is controlled by the flow control mechanism and the switching direction through the heat recovery control mechanism, so that the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system can be used in winter. The heat exchanger on the computer room side can be used for cooling, and the heat exchanger on the heat recovery side can be used for heating. In summer, the heat exchanger on the computer room side and the heat recovery side can be used for cooling at the same time, which meets the heat recovery needs in winter and the cooling needs in summer at the same time, thereby improving the convenience of system use.

At this time, the flow direction of the refrigerant in the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system is: after the compressor 1 is exhausted, it passes through the four-way reversing valve 2 and flows into the heat recovery side heat exchanger 4 and the condenser 9 in turn to dissipate heat to the outdoors, then enters the first electronic expansion valve 11 for throttling, and the computer room side heat exchanger 13 (used as an evaporator at this time) evaporates and absorbs heat, and finally returns to the compressor 1 to complete a heat recovery cycle.

[0079] While the refrigerant is running, the first blower 5 operates, using the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant discharged from the compressor 1 to dissipate heat in the heat recovery-side heat exchanger 4. Meanwhile, the second blower 10 controls its operation and speed based on the refrigerant temperature and degree of subcooling. The third blower 14 operates to absorb heat from the interior of the room. While the third blower 14 delivers cool air to the room, the first blower 5 can deliver hot air to the room, thereby achieving heat recovery.

[0080] Cooling mode

[0081] like Figure 2As shown, at this time, the four-way reversing valve 2 switches the refrigerant flow direction, that is, the D port and the C port of the four-way reversing valve 2 are connected, and the E port and the S port of the four-way reversing valve 2 are connected, so that the compressor 1 is connected to the condenser 9. At this time, the second solenoid valve 6, the third solenoid valve 7, and the fourth solenoid valve 15 are opened, and the first solenoid valve 3 is closed. At this time, the flow direction of the refrigerant in the heat recovery type machine room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system is: after the compressor 1 is exhausted, it flows into the condenser 9 after passing through the four-way reversing valve 2 to dissipate heat to the outdoors, and then enters the first electronic expansion valve 11 for throttling, and flows into the heat recovery side heat exchanger 4 (used as an evaporator at this time) and the machine room side heat exchanger 13 (used as an evaporator at this time) through the branch pipe 12 to evaporate and absorb heat, and finally returns to the compressor 1 after converging to complete a refrigeration cycle.

[0082] While the refrigerant medium is running, the second blower 10 is running to take away the heat dissipated by the condenser 9. The third blower 14 and the first blower 05 are running to cool down different rooms.

[0083] This application utilizes the heat recovery control mechanism 8 to recycle heat energy that would otherwise be wasted in a small computer room into rooms that require heating. This system is simple to install and control, improves system energy efficiency, and reduces computer room operating costs. By reducing energy consumption and lowering energy costs, the operating costs of a small computer room can be significantly reduced. This is an important consideration for cost-sensitive small businesses or organizations.

[0084] This heat recovery computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system enables simultaneous cooling and heating. Using a one-for-two indoor and outdoor unit configuration (i.e., one condenser and two evaporators in summer), the two indoor units can independently provide cooling and heating in winter, while simultaneously providing cooling in summer. This reduces the number of outdoor units, enabling a single unit to serve multiple purposes. For small computer rooms with limited space, this can save the space required to install separate heat recovery equipment, improving space utilization. It also makes installation and maintenance easier, and provides more centralized control.

[0085] This application enables the controller to accurately calculate the heat load of the computer room, including heat generated by factors such as heat dissipation from equipment within the computer room and lighting. By accurately calculating the heat load, the capacity of the heat exchanger on the heat recovery side is determined, ensuring that the heat recovery computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system can meet the heating needs of the rooms on the heat recovery side.

[0086] In addition, the pipeline layout on the refrigerant heat recovery side should be reasonable, and the pipeline length and the number of elbows should be minimized to reduce pipeline resistance and the risk of refrigerant leakage. At the same time, high-quality insulation materials should be used to insulate the pipeline to ensure that the temperature of the refrigerant medium in the pipeline remains stable and improve the heat recovery efficiency.

[0087] The heat recovery control mechanism in this application utilizes three-inlet, two-outlet piping installed within the refrigeration cycle of the computer room air conditioner. One side of the heat recovery control mechanism has a three-pipe interface, while the other side has a two-pipe interface. The heat recovery control mechanism switches the refrigerant flow direction on the heat recovery side in different modes. When the computer room is cooling in winter, the heat exchanger on the heat recovery side functions as a condenser, recovering the heat it emits, which can be used for winter heating and preheating fresh air in the surrounding area.

[0088] In this application, a four-way reversing valve and a heat recovery control mechanism are used to switch the flow direction of the refrigerant medium to realize the opening and closing of the heat recovery heating mode. Only the flow direction of the four-way reversing valve and the heat recovery control mechanism is controlled. No other moving parts are required. The system has high reliability, easy installation, stable operation of the unit, efficient operation, simple control and high reliability.

[0089] In summary, the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system provided by the present application, when the computer room air conditioning is cooling in winter, uses the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged from the compressor, which first flows through the heat recovery side heat exchanger for heat dissipation through the added flow control mechanism and heat recovery control mechanism, and then enters the condenser, and realizes heat recovery through the refrigerant medium circulation inside the system, without the need to add a separate heat recovery system, reducing costs and saving installation space. Compared with the conventional method of adding a separate heat recovery system, the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system is more integrated, and the waste heat generated during cooling is directly recovered to the heat recovery computer room air conditioning The refrigeration cycle system is adjusted to generate heat, so that heating in winter does not require additional electricity consumption, which is more energy-efficient; when the heat recovery side heat exchanger needs to be operated for cooling, the flow direction of the refrigerant medium on the heat recovery side is controlled by the flow control mechanism and the switching direction through the heat recovery control mechanism, so that the heat recovery type computer room air conditioning refrigeration cycle system can be used in winter. The heat exchanger on the computer room side can be used for cooling, and the heat exchanger on the heat recovery side can be used for heating. In summer, the heat exchanger on the computer room side and the heat recovery side can be used for cooling at the same time, which meets the heat recovery needs in winter and the cooling needs in summer at the same time, thereby improving the convenience of system use.
