Abstract
The invention relates to an intelligent control method of a water heater return circulating pump, which belongs to the technical field of household appliances. A circulating system comprises a water heater as a hot water source and a hot water supply pipeline, wherein the water heater has a sensor for monitoring the water temperature at the upper part and the ambient temperature and an intelligent control circuit; the hot water supply pipeline is provided with a return circulating pump controlled by the intelligent control circuit; and the intelligent control circuit controls the return circulating pump to start and stop through reading, operation and control when the water heater is in supplied condition. When the intelligent control method of the invention is adopted, the stop and start time of the return circulating pump can be calculated by means of the original intelligent control circuit of the water heater by inputting related heat radiation parameters of the specific hot water supply pipeline after installation, then the return circulating pump is controlled to start and stop, and the hot water can be obtained at the most economical condition.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of control of water heater, especially a kind of water heater backwater circulation pump intelligence control method belongs to household electrical appliance technical field.
Background technology
Hot water supply system cools off because of the tube wall heat radiation away from the water in thermal water source's pipeline in order to prevent; Thereby guarantee no matter where be in hot water supply system; All can open at any time has the hot water supply at any time, and needing constantly, control thermal water source's hot water circulates in system pipeline.Understand according to the applicant, the loop control of existing hot-water heating system has following two kinds of forms:
1) timing controlled: i.e. certain hour at interval, start pump operating cycle, make the water circulation in the pipeline, thereby keep water temperature.
2) temperature control: i.e. mounting temperature sensor in pipeline, when the water temperature in detecting pipeline is lower than setting value, start circulating pump, make the water circular flow in the pipeline, thereby keep water temperature.
Facts have proved that in use there is following problem in above-mentioned two kinds of control forms:
1) timing controlled: though can realize the hot water plug and play,, therefore exist, need often to adjust the time interval according to environment temperature or user's water custom than mistake because the variation of environment temperature and user's water custom is different.Otherwise, or the backwater circulation pump operation is not enough, need bleed off the cold water in the pipeline during water, and hot water output is just arranged; The backwater circulation pump operation time is excessive, wastes energy.In addition, if the user is easy to produce water temperature and stirs just in time at backwater circulation pump startup stage water, cause the comfortableness of water to descend.
2) temperature control: though also can realize the hot water plug and play; But need independently to be provided with backwater control system; Human factor when not only install at the precision of temperature sensor and scene is bigger to following control accuracy influence, and the Installation and Debugging trouble, and cost is also than higher.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to: the shortcoming to above-mentioned prior art exists proposes a kind of water heater backwater circulation pump intelligence control method that temperature sensor can rationally be controlled hot water circuit that need not, thereby reduces equipment cost and installation cost.
In order to reach above purpose; Water heater backwater circulation pump intelligence control method of the present invention is in the circulatory system that is made up of water heater and hot water supply line as the thermal water source; Said water heater has self upper water benign environment temperature monitoring sensor and intelligence control circuit; The backwater circulation pump that is controlled by said intelligence control circuit is installed in the said hot water supply line; Said intelligence control circuit is under the water supply state at water heater, controls the start and stop of backwater circulation pump through following basic step:
Read step---the backwater circulation pump discharge and the pipeline heat radiation of reading input influence parameter (comprising hot water supply line length, pipeline heat insulation situation, pipe laying mode);
Calculation step---according to water heater top water temperature, environment temperature monitor value and read in data, calculate the hot water supply line respectively according to the thermodynamics formula and reduce to backwater circulation pump dwell time and the running time of setting minimum water temperature apart from water heater far-end water temperature;
Especially calculating the hot water supply line respectively by following concrete formula reduces to backwater circulation pump dwell time and the running time of setting minimum water temperature apart from water heater far-end water temperature:
When the hot water supply line is walked pipe well:
When the hot water supply line buries wall and walks:
The implication and the unit of each letter representative are following in the aforementioned calculation formula:
