The invention provides a mechanical flash type
air conditioning refrigeration system and a working method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
refrigeration. The
system uses water as a working medium, and compared with a conventional
refrigeration system using
freon as the working medium, the mechanical flash type
air conditioning refrigeration system has the
advantage that the circulating working medium is free of any environmental hazards; and
chilled water obtained by
flash evaporation in the working process directly exchanges heat with
indoor air, the cold release only requires one-stage heat exchange, the system cold loss is small, the operation condition of a
water vapor compressor is improved, the operation
energy consumption of the
water vapor compressor is reduced, and the system has a relatively high refrigeration coefficient. According to the system, the frequency of the
water vapor compressor is adjusted during a night valley
electricity price period so that the flash refrigerating capacity of the system can be increased; and cold accumulation is carried out through a flash tank, and cold is released during a high-
electricity-price period so that the
peak load shifting of the
electric power resources can be realized, and meanwhile, the operation cost of the system is reduced. The mechanical flash type
air conditioning refrigeration system has the advantages of being energy-saving,
environmentally friendly and the like.
