Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temperature control technology for energy storage power stations, specifically to a temperature control device for an energy storage power station that integrates air cooling and water cooling. Background Technology

[0002] Energy storage power stations are established to regulate peak and off-peak electricity demand. They generally come in two forms: pumped-storage hydroelectric power stations and ultra-large battery packs. Ultra-large battery pack power stations are typically composed of multiple battery packs. Energy storage power stations store the electricity that would otherwise be wasted during off-peak hours and release it back into the grid during peak hours to solve energy problems. Ultimately, they achieve functions such as regulating peak and off-peak electricity demand, enabling black starts, and ensuring stable output. Because energy storage power stations generate a lot of heat during operation, temperature control is required at all times. Temperature sensors are typically installed in the energy storage power station, and heat dissipation structures are set on the sides of the power station. These structures generally include natural cooling, forced air cooling, liquid cooling, and phase change direct cooling.

[0003] In the temperature control devices of energy storage power stations, the most commonly used heat dissipation structures are air cooling and water cooling. However, the air cooling and water cooling in existing temperature control devices generally work independently, that is, as two different heat dissipation methods in energy storage power stations, they lack coordination and have a low degree of integration.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a temperature control device for an integrated air-cooled and water-cooled energy storage power station to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated temperature control device for energy storage power stations that combines air cooling and water cooling. This solves the problem that in existing temperature control devices, air cooling and water cooling generally operate independently, meaning that as two different heat dissipation methods in energy storage power stations, they lack synergy and have a low degree of integration.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A temperature control device for an integrated air-cooled and water-cooled energy storage power station includes a side plate that can be installed in the energy storage power station, an upper slot opened above the side plate, a lower slot opened below the side plate, and a water pump located in the middle of the right side of the side plate. An upper outer frame is connected to the right side of the side plate at the position adapted to the upper slot. Multiple air-cooled components for air cooling are installed in the upper outer frame. An extension frame that can serve as an air-cooled circulation channel is connected to the end of the upper outer frame away from the side plate. An upper water-cooled component that can enter the extension frame is installed on the water pump. A lower outer frame is connected to the right side of the side plate at the position adapted to the lower slot. A lower inner frame is connected to the left side of the side plate at the position adapted to the lower slot. A lower water-cooled component that can enter the space between the lower outer frame, the lower slot, and the lower inner frame is installed on the water pump.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the upper outer frame is provided with multiple card holders, the air-cooling component includes a rotating component and a fan installed at the output end of the rotating component, the multiple fans are all located in the upper slot, and the multiple rotating components can be detachably snapped into the card holders.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the upper water cooling assembly includes an upper water inlet pipe installed above the peripheral side wall of the water pump and an upper water outlet pipe installed on one side wall of the water pump. An upper water cooling pipe that can penetrate through the side of the extension frame and enter the air-cooled circulation channel inside the extension frame is installed between the upper water inlet pipe and the upper water outlet pipe. A wastewater pipe that can discharge water-cooled wastewater is connected to the middle of the bottom side wall of the extension frame.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the lower water cooling assembly includes a lower water inlet pipe installed below the peripheral wall of the water pump and a lower water outlet pipe installed on one side wall of the water pump. A lower water cooling pipe that can enter the space between the lower outer frame, the lower groove and the lower inner frame is installed between the lower water inlet pipe and the lower water outlet pipe.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the upper water inlet pipe and the lower water inlet pipe are each equipped with a refrigerant adding pipe on their peripheral sidewalls, and the upper water inlet pipe, the upper water outlet pipe, the lower water inlet pipe and the lower water outlet pipe are each equipped with a control valve to control the flow of the pipe.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an outer connecting panel is embedded in the side of the upper outer frame near the extension frame, an air intake grille is embedded in the side of the extension frame away from the side plate, an upper heat dissipation panel is embedded in the side of the upper inner frame away from the side plate, a lower outer card plate is embedded in the side of the lower outer frame away from the side plate, a lower heat dissipation panel is embedded in the side of the lower inner frame away from the side plate, and the lower water cooling pipe passes through the lower outer card plate.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:

[0014] In this invention, the air-cooled component dissipates heat through the upper slot and upper outer frame, while the upper water-cooled component installed on the water pump can penetrate the extension frame and enter the air-cooled circulation channel therein, thereby achieving cooling within the airflow circulation channel of the air-cooled component. On one hand, the upper water-cooled component dissipates heat from the air-cooled component; on the other hand, it cools the air about to flow through the air-cooled component, lowering the temperature of the air discharged into the energy storage power station, thus improving the air-cooled component's heat dissipation effect. The lower water-cooled component installed on the water pump can directly enter the space between the lower outer frame, lower slot, and lower inner frame. The space allows for direct water cooling of the energy storage power station. In this application, air cooling directly cools the energy storage power station through the side panel, while the upper water cooling component can dissipate heat from the air cooling component, improving the air cooling effect. The lower water cooling component directly cools the energy storage power station through the side panel, enabling the upper water cooling component and the air cooling component to work together. Without affecting the water cooling, some water cooling efficiency is used to dissipate heat from the air cooling component, improving the synergy between air cooling and water cooling for temperature control of the energy storage power station, and thus improving the integration of air cooling and water cooling.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-5 The temperature control device for an integrated air-cooled and water-cooled energy storage power station, as shown, includes a side plate 1 that can be installed on the energy storage power station, an upper slot 2 formed above the side plate 1, a lower slot 3 formed below the side plate 1, and a water pump 4 located in the middle of the right side of the side plate 1. An upper outer frame 6 is connected to the right side of the side plate 1 at the position adapted to the upper slot 2. Multiple air-cooled components for air cooling are installed in the upper outer frame 6. An extension frame 12, which can serve as an air-cooled circulation channel, is connected to the end of the upper outer frame 6 away from the side plate 1. The water pump 4 is equipped with... The upper water-cooling component can be inserted into the extension frame 12. The lower outer frame 10 is connected to the lower slot 3 on the right side of the side plate 1, and the lower inner frame 11 is connected to the lower slot 3 on the left side of the side plate 1. The water pump 4 is equipped with a lower water-cooling component that can enter the space between the lower outer frame 10, the lower slot 3 and the lower inner frame 11. The side plate 1 can be used as a mounting plate for the energy storage power station, so that the heat dissipation effect of the air-cooled component, the upper water-cooled component and the lower water-cooled component can be directly applied to the energy storage power station through the side plate 1.

[0024] The upper outer frame 6 is provided with multiple card holders 22. The air-cooling component includes a rotating part 23 and a fan 24 installed at the output end of the rotating part 23. Multiple fans 24 are located in the upper slot 2. Multiple rotating parts 23 can be detachably snapped into the card holders 22. The card holders 22 can fix the position of the rotating parts 23 in the upper outer frame 6. The rotating part 23 is generally a motor. In the process of driving the fan 24 to rotate for air-cooling heat dissipation, a certain amount of heat will be generated. Therefore, it is necessary to dissipate heat from the air-cooling component through the upper water-cooling component.

[0025] The upper water cooling assembly includes an upper water inlet pipe 5 installed above the side wall of the water pump 4 and an upper water outlet pipe 14 installed on one side wall of the water pump 4. An upper water cooling pipe 25 is installed between the upper water inlet pipe 5 and the upper water outlet pipe 14, which can penetrate through the side of the extension frame 12 and enter the air cooling circulation channel inside the extension frame 12. A wastewater pipe 19 is connected to the middle of the bottom side wall of the extension frame 12 to discharge water cooling wastewater. There may be surface air water vapor condensation on the upper water cooling pipe 25 inside the extension frame 12. Therefore, the wastewater pipe 19 can be used to discharge this part of the water vapor.

[0026] The lower water cooling assembly includes a lower water inlet pipe 15 installed below the side wall of the water pump 4 and a lower water outlet pipe 16 installed on one side wall of the water pump 4. A lower water cooling pipe 26 is installed between the lower water inlet pipe 15 and the lower water outlet pipe 16, which can enter the space between the lower outer frame 10, the lower groove 3 and the lower inner frame 11. The space between the lower outer frame 10, the lower groove 3 and the lower inner frame 11 serves as a water cooling heat dissipation channel. The lower water cooling assembly can be inserted into it to dissipate water cooling heat to the energy storage power station through the side plate 1.

[0027] Both the upper water inlet pipe 5 and the lower water inlet pipe 15 are equipped with refrigerant adding pipes 20 on their surrounding side walls. The upper water inlet pipe 5, the upper water outlet pipe 14, the lower water inlet pipe 15 and the lower water outlet pipe 16 are also equipped with control valves 21 to control the flow of water in the pipes. Adding refrigerant into the upper water cooling pipe 25 and the lower water cooling pipe 26 can reduce the temperature of the circulating water and thus improve the water cooling effect.

[0028] An external connecting panel 8 is embedded in the side of the upper outer frame 6 near the extension frame 12. An air intake grille 13 is embedded in the side of the extension frame 12 away from the side plate 1. An upper heat dissipation panel 9 is embedded in the side of the upper inner frame 7 away from the side plate 1. A lower outer frame 17 is embedded in the side of the lower outer frame 10 away from the side plate 1. A lower heat dissipation panel 18 is embedded in the side of the lower inner frame 11 away from the side plate 1. A lower water cooling pipe 26 passes through the lower outer frame 17. The upper heat dissipation panel 9 and the lower heat dissipation panel 18 serve as the connection structure between the energy storage power station and the air-cooled components and the lower water-cooled components, and can exchange and circulate heat.

[0029] In this invention, the air-cooled component dissipates heat through the upper slot 2 and the upper outer frame 6, while the upper water-cooled component installed on the water pump 4 can penetrate the extension frame 12 and enter the air-cooled circulation channel therein, thereby cooling the air within the airflow circulation channel of the air-cooled component. On the one hand, the upper water-cooled component dissipates heat from the air-cooled component, and on the other hand, it cools the air about to flow through the air-cooled component, thus lowering the temperature of the air discharged into the energy storage power station through the air-cooled component, thereby improving the air-cooled component's heat dissipation effect. The lower water-cooled component installed on the water pump 4 can directly enter the lower outer frame 10, the lower slot 3, and the lower inner frame 1. The space between the two sides allows for direct water cooling of the energy storage power station. In this application, air cooling directly cools the energy storage power station through the side plate 1, while the upper water cooling component can cool the air cooling component, improving the air cooling effect of the air cooling component. The lower water cooling component directly cools the energy storage power station through the side plate 1, enabling the upper water cooling component and the air cooling component to work together. Without affecting the water cooling, the air cooling component is cooled through part of the water cooling efficiency, improving the synergy between air cooling and water cooling for temperature control of the energy storage power station, and thus improving the integration of air cooling and water cooling.

[0030] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
