Background technique
Refrigeration system or heat pump loop can comprise the four-way change-over valve that is used to change by the flow of refrigerant direction of this refrigeration system.For example, when refrigeration agent was mobile along a direction, refrigeration system turned round under refrigerating mode.Then, when refrigeration agent flowed in opposite direction, refrigeration system turned round under heating mode.
A kind of selector valve of prior art defines two fluid passages.A passage is limited at the valve element internal, and another passage is limited at the valve element-external.When the valve element was in primary importance, fluid flow through the system related with this selector valve along first direction.When the valve element was in the second place, fluid flow through this system along second direction.
The selector valve of another kind of prior art comprises the valve element that is provided with four U type grooves.On primary importance, the first cover U type groove defines first flow channel, and on the second place, the second cover U type groove defines second flow channel.Gap between every grooving is less than the width of groove.Every suit U type groove turns over 90 degree with respect to another set of U type groove.The valve element is linear moving between the primary importance and the second place, thereby direct fluid flows through system.When the valve element was in the first position, the first cover U type groove alignd with four short tubes of valve body, makes this system turn round under refrigerating mode.When the spool linearity moved to the second place, the second cover U type groove alignd with four short tubes of valve body, makes this system turn round under heating mode.
The selector valve of another kind of prior art comprises the valve element, and this element comprises two passages of the refrigeration agent directed stream being crossed refrigeration system.This valve element can rotate between the primary importance and the second place.When the valve element was in the first position, first end of first passage alignd with compressor discharge, and second end of first passage aligns with the first heat exchanger mouth.First end and the compressor suction of second channel continue to align, and second end of second channel aligns with the second heat exchanger mouth.When the valve element turned to the second place, second end of first passage alignd with compressor discharge, and first end of first passage aligns with the second heat exchanger mouth.Second end of second channel aligns with first heat exchanger.In rotation process, only there is the compression pump port to keep being communicated with the continuous fluid of passage.Another port temporarily disconnected in rotation process is communicated with the fluid of passage, increases the friction in the rotation process.
The selector valve of the refrigeration system of available technology adopting R22 refrigeration agent has common limited capacity less than 130RT.If the total volume of compressor is worth greater than this, along the pressure drop increase of this selector valve.When power system capacity increased, the pipe diameter of selector valve needed to increase, so as with the pipe diameter coupling of this system.If the pipe diameter of selector valve is big inadequately, then need to adopt ABAP Adapter.Yet, adopt ABAP Adapter will further increase overall pressure drop.
In order to overcome this problem, this system can two or more selector valves of parallel employing.Yet this has increased the complexity of pipeline, and is very expensive and increased owing to selector valve quantity increases the possibility that internal leakage takes place.For example, if a selector valve has the leakage speed of 90l/min under the pressure reduction of 1.0Mpa, if then adopt a plurality of selector valves, internal leakage speed will increase 2 or 3 times.In addition, the possibility that also exists selector valve under different time, to turn round.If this thing happens, then same time selector valve will be on the diverse location.For example, first selector valve can be reduced to pressure reduction zero.If the second selector valve entry into service, because the reduction of pressure reduction, it will stop on the branch road position.If this thing happens, selector valve need be repaired or replace.
