Chinese patent application. The entire contents of this patent application are incorporated herein by reference.

technical field

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of temperature regulation, and more particularly, to a control method for a temperature regulation system and a related computer-readable medium, a controller and a temperature regulation system.

Background technique

In the production, manufacture, storage and transportation of some products (such as milk, cooked meat products processed at high temperature, etc.), it is usually necessary to rapidly cool down in a short period of time by means of a refrigeration unit/condensing unit (a type of temperature adjustment system). , so that the temperature of the product quickly crosses the temperature zone where bacteria are easy to multiply, so as to reduce the chance of bacterial reproduction, thereby prolonging the storage period and ensuring the nutrition of the food. Therefore, in the refrigeration device, the target cooling time (usually several minutes or several hours) and the target cooling temperature are determined in advance according to the properties of the object to be cooled and the corresponding bacterial reproduction characteristics.

A temperature protection warning system is usually installed in the refrigeration device to ensure effective cooling of the product. In the prior art, the following alarm methods are often used: pre-setting the target temperature and the target time for cooling to the target temperature, the controller monitors the temperature and accumulates the time, When the time reaches the threshold (ie, the target time has elapsed), the detected temperature is compared with the target temperature, no alarm is given when the detected temperature is at or below the target temperature, and when the detected temperature is higher than the target temperature an alarm is issued.

Therefore, in the existing control method, it can only be determined whether the set temperature is reached after the set target time is reached. When there is an abnormality in the system and the cooling effect cannot be completed, an alarm cannot be issued in time. In this way, when the alarm is issued, the product temperature fails to reach the target temperature, which may have caused economic losses. Before that, people cannot predict whether the cooling can be successfully completed or when the target temperature can be reached.

Therefore, the inventor believes that it is necessary to improve the existing refrigeration device and control method.

Here, it should be noted that the content in this section merely provides background information related to the present disclosure, and it does not necessarily constitute prior art.

The features and advantages of one or more embodiments of the present disclosure will become more readily understood from the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

FIG. 1 is a schematic composition diagram of a temperature regulation system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

Detailed ways

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the scope of the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments specifically described.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a temperature regulation system 10 in accordance with the present disclosure. The temperature regulation system is used to rapidly cool items (eg, foods that require rapid cooling) and may include: a condensing unit 100; at least a temperature-controlled area 110 (eg, a temperature control area 110 that accommodates and stores items to be cooled and cools the items to a target temperature _tset ) , cold storage or liquid storage tank); cooling line 101, the cooling medium in the cooling line 101 is suitable for exchanging heat with the working fluid in the refrigeration circuit of the condensing unit to provide cooling for the temperature control area 110; and controlling the temperature adjustment system 10. Operation of the controller 120.

The controller of the temperature regulation system according to the present disclosure has a temperature warning protection function. The composition of the controller and the control method with the early warning mechanism will be described below based on FIGS. 1 to 3 .

The controller 120 includes: an input module 121 through which a user can set various operating parameters, including a target temperature t _set for the temperature control area 110 and making the temperature of the temperature control area 110 reach the target temperature t _set The target time _Tset ; the monitoring module 123, the monitoring module includes at least a timer (not shown) and a sensor 124, the sensor can monitor and record the temperature value in the temperature control area 110, which can also be combined with the monitored temperature. Value-related data output; the arithmetic module 125, which can obtain data for calculation from the monitoring module 123 for calculation, including calculating the target temperature t _set based on the time value and temperature value corresponding to the selected time point the calculation time; the alarm module 127, the alarm module can compare the calculation time and the target time _Tset , and based on the comparison result of the calculation time and the target time _Tset , issue an alarm instruction or not issue an alarm instruction and issue a cancel alarm instruction; and an output module 129 , the output module can receive an instruction from the alarm module and output an alarm signal to the user based on the instruction, and can also output information reflecting the operating status of the system, including the calculation time calculated by the operation module 125 .

In the example shown in FIG. 1 , the sensor 124 is a temperature sensor disposed at an appropriate position of the temperature control area 110 , which can directly measure the temperature of the temperature control area 110 . However, the temperature can also be measured in an indirect way. For example, considering that there is a certain linear relationship between the temperature of the temperature control area 110 and the low pressure of the condensing unit 100, if the low pressure of the condensing unit 100 reaches the set value, It basically means that the temperature control area 110 has also reached the target temperature t _set . Based on this principle, the temperature in the temperature control area 110 can be indirectly measured by a pressure sensor that measures the low pressure pressure of the compressor in the condensing unit 100 .

Considering that the high and low pressure difference needs to be established after the condensing unit 100 is turned on, the capacity output is usually unstable, and the output of the refrigeration capacity does not tend to be stable until the high and low pressure pressures are stabilized. The unit 100 is selected from the stage after the unit 100 runs for a predetermined time and the capacity output becomes stable. Usually, the aforementioned predetermined time is about 2 to 5 minutes. Accordingly, the first detection or selection of the temperature value can be performed, for example, 3 to 10 minutes after the condensing unit is turned on (that is, the temperature adjustment system 10 is turned on), and then The temperature value is detected at a predetermined time interval ΔT or a value to be used is selected from the temperature values measured in real time. In this paper, the stable cooling capacity of the temperature regulation system (ie, the condensing unit) output to the temperature control area may refer to a state where the cooling capacity reaches more than 90%, and the high and low pressures of the system are stable (for example, the saturation corresponding to the high and low pressures The temperature fluctuates within plus or minus 0.5°C/min).

In actual operation, the calculation time obtained by calculation may be the remaining time _{Tr from the current time point to reaching the target temperature tset} _, or may be the time from the time point when the temperature regulation system is turned on to reaching the target temperature ( _tset ). Total time (T _t ). In theory, this total time T _t is equal to the sum of the aforementioned remaining time Tr and the current time ( _ie , the time when the calculation is performed). The calculation method can use any suitable existing mathematical operation method.

Taking the linear operation as an example, the remaining time _Tr can be calculated by the following equation (1):

Correspondingly, the total time T _t can be calculated by the following formula (2):

In the formula,

T _n and T _n-1 refer to the time values elapsed from the time point when the temperature regulation system is turned on to the nth and n-1th time points, respectively, where n≥2;

t _n and t _n-1 refer to the temperature values monitored and recorded at the nth and n-1th time points, respectively; and

k is the correction coefficient.

Therefore, when passing through the above linear equations (1) and (2), only two sets of temperature values and time values are required for each operation. Although in the above example, two adjacent sets of values are used, however, as required, It is also possible to use two sets of values that are not adjacent, for example, the nth set and the n-3th set of temperature and time values.

In the above equations (1) and (2), the value of the correction coefficient can be based on the working state of the condensing unit 100 (for example, the speed of the compressor, etc.), the specification and model of the condensing unit 100 (for example, the number), the time the temperature regulation system 10 has been activated, the size of the temperature-controlled zone 110 (eg, the volume of the temperature-controlled zone), and the properties of the items stored in the temperature-controlled zone (eg, the thermal capacity of the item) set at least one. In addition, the value of the correction coefficient is manually set by the user according to experience or automatically through a predetermined program.

In addition, since the change of temperature with time is non-linear in practice, in addition to linear operation, polynomial curve fitting, logarithmic function, exponential function and curve regression analysis can also be used for different operation methods. You can also select three or more sets of temperature and time values.

Preferably, the output module 129 includes a display interface such as a liquid crystal display screen to visually display one or both of the calculated total time T _t and remaining time T _r to the user, through the display interface, the user can predict in advance Whether the target temperature t _set can be reached within the target time T _set can also be predicted in advance when the target temperature t _set can be reached, which will facilitate the customer to understand and control the operating status of the system, so that corresponding measures can be taken according to the operating status.

The alarm module 127 is configured to issue an alarm instruction when the calculated total time T _t is greater than the target time T _set , and when the calculated total time T _t is less than or equal to the target time T _set , it will not issue an alarm instruction but issue an alarm cancellation. instruction. When an alarm command is issued, it means that the temperature in the temperature control area 110 cannot reach the target temperature _tset when the target time _Tset is reached. At this time, the user can choose to increase the capacity output of the condensing unit. This is done by the user manually modifying operating parameters based on experience, or can be set to automatically increase the volume output when an alarm occurs. However, it will be appreciated that the user may choose to dismiss the alarm without taking any action when the alarm is raised.

An exemplary embodiment of a control method for a temperature regulation system according to the present disclosure will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 . Wherein, FIG. 2 shows a flowchart of the control method of this exemplary embodiment, and FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of a temperature curve of this exemplary embodiment.

When the condensing unit 100 is turned on, the temperature of the temperature control area 110 (or the product to be cooled) is the initial temperature t ₀ , the timer will be turned on synchronously at this time and the running time will be recorded. After running for a predetermined time T _p , the capacity input of the condensing unit 100 has basically stabilized, and the first number of value recordings can be started immediately or later, that is, the recording time point T ₁ and the corresponding temperature value t in the temperature control area 110 ₁ , so T ₁ is greater than or equal to T _p . After the condensing unit 100 continues to operate for a predetermined time interval ΔT, a second set of time points T ₂ and corresponding temperature values t ₂ are recorded.

Here, it is assumed that the theoretical total time T _t for cooling from the initial temperature t ₀ to the target temperature t _set is directly calculated using the aforementioned equation (2). After the second time value recording is completed, the obtained two sets of data can be substituted into the aforementioned equation (2) to calculate the total time T _t for the first time, and then the value of T _t and the value of the target time T _set By comparison, when T _t >T _set , the alarm module 127 issues an alarm command; on the contrary, if T _t ≤ T _set , no action is taken.

Next, a set of data is recorded every predetermined time interval ΔT, and after each recording (the nth time, n≥2) is completed, the time point Tn and temperature value _tn recorded in this time are the same as those of the previous time (the _nth time, n≥2). The time point T _n-1 and the temperature value t _n-1 recorded for n-1 times) are substituted into the aforementioned equation (2) for calculation.

It can be understood that since the temperature drop has a non-linear relationship with time, the slope of the actual temperature curve is constantly changing, which will cause the calculation time calculated at different time points to be constantly changing. Therefore, in the prediction process, it is possible to switch between the alarm state and the non-alarm state. In the case of the alarm state, when the calculated total time T _t becomes less than or equal to the target time T _set , or when the measured When the temperature tx becomes less than or equal to the target temperature _tset or the unit stops, the previous alarm state can be released.

Taking the temperature curve shown in FIG. 3 as an example, after completing the recording and calculation of the _third group of data T3 and _t3 , the obtained total time T _t is greater than the target time T _set , at this time, the alarm module 127 will issue an alarm command. , to indicate that the temperature may not be able to drop below the target temperature _tset before the target time _Tset , at which time the user can choose whether to take some measures to improve the cooling efficiency or manually dismiss the alarm. In the following data recording and calculation process, since the user has obtained an alarm reminder, appropriate measures can be taken to increase the cooling efficiency. For example, by adjusting the operating parameters of the condensing unit 100 by the user to increase its capacity output, the total time T _t calculated at the time point T _n is less than or equal to the target time T _set , so that the previous alarm can be released, and Finally, the temperature is reduced to below the target temperature _tset before the target time _Tset , so as to avoid possible economic losses.

To further facilitate understanding, the above control method will be explained below with a specific application scenario of cooling a milk product with a refrigeration system. The initial temperature t ₀ of the manufactured milk product was 35° C., the set target temperature t _set was 4° C., and the set target time T _set was 2 hours. After the refrigeration system was turned on for 3 minutes, the capacity output of the refrigeration system was basically stable. In the 4th minute after the operation, record the first temperature value t ₁ =33.5°C, after a predetermined time interval of 1 minute, that is, in the 5th minute, record the second temperature value t ₂ =33.0°C, at this time, set The value of the fixed correction coefficient k is 1.5, and the time points and temperature values recorded twice are substituted into formula (1), that is, the theoretical remaining time _Tr is calculated:

In the case where the calculated remaining time Tr is 87 minutes, the total time _{T t} _that needs to be consumed in theory is: 87+5=92 (minutes), 92 minutes is less than 120 minutes (2 hours), therefore, the system does not Need to call the police. Both the calculated remaining time Tr and total time _{T t} _can be provided to the user through the display screen.

In this linear calculation method, the selection of the k value will significantly affect the accuracy of the prediction results. Generally, the value of k can be obtained through empirical inference and set according to the working state of the temperature regulation system. In particular, the value of k can be adjusted with the change of the slope of the temperature curve. In general, the value of k can be adjusted within the range of 0.2 to 5. The adjustment of its value can be set manually by the operator based on experience or automatically through a predetermined program. In different applications, the value of k can also be adjusted accordingly. With this adjustable correction factor, the calculated results will have higher accuracy.

It should be understood that the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and it may also be applied in other temperature regulation systems such as air conditioners or for heating, for example. The technical solution according to the present disclosure makes it possible to predict the temperature adjustment effect of the temperature adjustment system, and by issuing an alarm in advance and displaying the prediction result, it is helpful for the user to timely discover the problems that may affect the adjustment effect in the temperature adjustment process and take remedial measures. measures to effectively avoid economic losses.

The present disclosure is not limited to the specific embodiments described and illustrated in detail herein, and other modifications and variations can be effected by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.

Furthermore, all elements or structures described herein may be replaced by other technically equivalent elements or structures.
