Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water-cooled air conditioning technology, and in particular to an energy-saving water-cooled air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] With the escalating global energy crisis and increasing environmental awareness, reducing building energy consumption and developing green and energy-saving technologies have become important issues in today's society. Among these, air conditioning systems, as a major component of building energy consumption, have received much attention for their energy efficiency. Traditional air-cooled air conditioners rely on air for heat exchange, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency, especially in high-temperature environments. The compressor needs to start and stop frequently and operate at full load, leading to high energy consumption and potentially shortening equipment lifespan. While existing water-cooled air conditioners improve heat exchange efficiency by using water as the heat exchange medium, they still have many problems in practical applications. Some water-cooled air conditioning systems have unreasonable water circulation designs, leading to excessive water pump energy consumption. Furthermore, the cooling water is easily affected by ambient temperature during heat exchange. When the ambient temperature rises, the condensing temperature increases, increasing compressor power consumption and limiting energy-saving effects. Therefore, developing an energy-saving water-cooled air conditioner that can effectively reduce energy consumption, improve heat exchange efficiency, and has intelligent adjustment functions has become an urgent need for industry development.

[0003] Some water-cooled air conditioning systems have unreasonable water circulation designs, which directly leads to excessive water pump energy consumption. Inappropriate water circulation paths and pipe diameter selections increase water flow resistance, requiring the pump to consume more energy to maintain water circulation, thus increasing the overall system energy consumption and weakening the energy-saving advantages that water-cooled air conditioning should possess. Furthermore, the problem of not being able to recycle unevaporated water remains unresolved. Currently, the market is introducing variable frequency water pump technology and matching it with the water circulation system. Variable frequency water pumps can automatically adjust their speed according to the system's real-time water flow demand. When the system load decreases, the pump speed decreases, and energy consumption decreases accordingly; when the load increases, the speed increases accordingly to ensure stable water circulation. However, the problem of not being able to recycle unevaporated water still exists. During the operation of water-cooled air conditioning, cooling water continuously circulates and partially evaporates. If the unevaporated water is directly discharged, it means that a large amount of treated and transported water resources are not fully utilized. Especially in water-scarce areas, this waste will exacerbate local water pressure, which is inconsistent with the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection. Utility Model Content
