System controller 46 can be combined using non-measured operating parameter with the operating parameter of measurement to indicate multi-joint compressor 14 And/or startup, stabilization, shutdown, capacity increase and the capacity of each compressor in refrigeration system 12 reduce.
System controller 46 can receive common discharge pipe line temperature with the compressor in the multi-joint compressor of determination 14 Stablize, as described further below.System controller 46 can also be communicated with various sensors with the multi-joint compressor of determination Stablize.For example, stabilization can be by measuring the current sensor 50 of the motor current of each compressor in multi-joint compressor 14 To determine.Stabilization can also be determined by suction line temperature.Suction line temperature sensor 54 can be in suction line It is arranged into multi-joint compressor 14.Common discharge pipe line temperature can be by discharge pipe line temperature sensor 58 from leaving multi-joint pressure The discharge pipe line of contracting machine 14 directly senses, and system controller can search stablize progress discharge pipe line temperature signal and/ Or the signal derivative value to go to zero.Similarly, when the output by current sensor 50 or suction line temperature sensor 54 is true When the stabilization of fixed multi-joint compressor, system controller 46, which will be searched, stablizes the signal carried out and/or the signal derivative value to go to zero.
System controller 46 can also receive the operating condition of compressor, for example be saturated evaporator temperature (Ts) and be saturated cold Solidifying temperature (Tc).Can directly it feel from the temperature sensor 66 in the temperature sensor 62 and condenser 18 in evaporator 22 respectively Survey saturation evaporator temperature and saturation condensation temperature.It is saturated evaporator temperature and saturation condensation temperature can also be respectively by by steaming The pressure that the pressure sensor 70 at device 22 and the pressure sensor 74 at condenser 18 sense is sent out to determine.By pressure sensor The condensing pressure of 74 sensings is the pressure that refrigerant becomes liquid from vapor phase.The evaporating pressure sensed by pressure sensor 70 is Refrigerant from liquid phase-change be steam pressure.
Only as an example, saturation evaporator temperature can be directly related with saturation evaporator pressure, and it is saturated condensation temperature Degree can be directly related with saturation condensing pressure.Fig. 6 provides for various refrigerant types that pressure is related to temperature The example chart of connection.Therefore, system controller 46 can be by searching in the memory 78 being stored in system controller 46 Sensing value in table is saturated evaporator temperature and saturation condensation temperature to determine.
System controller 46 can also be that each compressor in multi-joint compressor 14 stores ten coefficients in memory 78 Performance model.Ten coefficient performance models are determined by manufacturer or setter, and ten coefficient performance models describe the behaviour of compressor Make characteristic.Ten coefficient performance models can be input in installation or inspection period or when manufacturing completion by user interface 82 In memory 78.Ten coefficient performance models are compressor model and size specifically and are announced by compressor Manufacturing business.Compression Machine capacity can pass through ARI (air-conditioning and refrigeration research institute (Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute air-conditioning), now, for warm refrigeration research institute (Air-Conditioning, Heating,; Refrigeration Institute)) ten coefficient performance curve formula calculate:
X=C0+ (C1*S)+(C2*D)+(C3*S2)+(C4*S*D)+(C5*D2)+(C6*S3)+(C7*D*S2)+(C8*S* D2)+(C9*D3)
Wherein, X is capacity (BTU/HR) or power (watt or ampere), and S is saturation evaporating temperature, and D is saturation condensation temperature Degree.
Although discussing ten coefficient performance models it should be appreciated that different coefficients can be applied to characterize.Example Such as, compressor can be modeled based on 20 coefficient systems.The present disclosure is not limited to ten coefficient performance models, but can be real What incumbent compressor characterization scheme, such as ten coefficient schemes, 20 coefficient schemes or any other number of coefficients scheme.
The position of each compressor in multi-joint compressor 14 or configuration also are stored in memory 78.For example, in addition joining According to Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 4, if multi-joint compressor 14 presses double-stage compressor, fixed-capacity compressor 1 and fixed-capacity compressor 2 Be ranked sequentially, then double-stage compressor can be assigned location A, and fixed-capacity compressor 1 can be assigned B location, and solid Constant volume capacity compressor 2 can be assigned location of C.Therefore, memory 78 stores the mark of each compressor in multi-joint compressor 14 Knowledge and position or configuration.
The input of 46 receiving sensor data of system controller calculates common discharge pipe line according to sensing data It is every in temperature, saturation evaporator temperature, saturation condensation temperature, ten coefficient performance models or curve and multi-joint compressor 14 The mark of a compressor and position.According to the data, system controller 46 order the startup of multi-joint compressor 14, stabilization, shutdown, Capacity increases and capacity reduces.
System controller 46 may include the processing electricity of the function for executing the method 100 for adjusting compressor capacity Road device 86.Referring now to Fig. 5 and Fig. 7, system controller 46 receive at step 104 to goal systems capacity (or capacity need Ask) request.For example, can be based on the Current Temperatures in air-conditioning or refrigerating space and the target temperature in air-conditioning or refrigerating space Comparison be calculated or determined goal systems capacity.Freeze with target for another example current refrigerant temperature or pressure can be based on Agent temperature or pressure are compared to that goal systems capacity is calculated or determined.In step 108, processing circuit unit 86 can be with base Carry out in capacity requirement or to the request of goal systems capacity one in the compressor 26,30,34 in the multi-joint compressor of order 14 Or more compressor startup.In step 112, once compressor operating in multi-joint compressor 14, then processing circuit fill The stable state of compressor 26,30,34 of the enabling in multi-joint compressor 14 can be waited for and determine by setting 86.
Stabilization/starting state after defined start-up course, this make compressor 26 in multi-joint compressor 14, 30, each compressor in 34 once connects one to limit inrush current (inrush current).For example, maximum capacity Single compressor can be initiated first.Remaining compressor can be activated with the order of maximum capacity to minimum capacity until mesh Until mark system capacity is satisfied.Stabilization/starting state of multi-joint compressor 14 passes through the first life from system controller 46 Signal is enabled to start, and terminate with the steady state operation of the compressor being activated in multi-joint compressor 14.Stablize State operation is by monitoring discharge pipe line temperature derivative value at any time and derivative value being waited for be connect during the period of setting Nearly low value or threshold value determine.Only for example, being less than discharge pipe line temperature at two points in derivative value (change of discharge pipe line temperature) In the time of clock in the case of three degrees Fahrenheits (°F), stablizes or plateau can be determined.Therefore, targets threshold can be three Degrees Fahrenheit (°F).It should be understood, however, that targets threshold can change with each different system or application type. Some systems are faster more stable than other systems.For example, if system uses electric expansion valve rather than the thermal expansion valve of routine (TXV), electronic expansion valve system will be faster more stable than the conventional system with TXV.Therefore, although provide three degrees Fahrenheits (° F example), but different targets thresholds may be used to determine stabilization or plateau for different system and application type Operation.
As described above, system controller 46 can be determined by monitoring common discharge pipe line temperature in multi-joint compression The stabilization of compressor 26,30,34 in machine 14.System controller 46 can be communicated with discharge pipe line temperature sensor 58 to receive Common discharge pipe line temperature.Alternatively, stabilization can be according to the output of the signal of current sensor 50 or suction line temperature The signal of sensor 54 exports to determine.System controller 46 can determine:When discharge pipe line temperature, come from current sensor 50 Signal or the signal of suction line temperature sensor 54 become stable and/or temperature or the derivative value of current signal become zero When, multi-joint compressor 14 is stable.
Processing circuit unit 86 communicates with memory 78 and can receive ten coefficient performance models and more from memory 78 Join mark and the position of each compressor 26,30,34 in compressor 14.At step 116, according to input, processing circuit dress Set 86 can based on current saturation evaporator temperature, saturation condensation temperature and in multi-joint compressor 14 when previous group is opened The applicable ten coefficients performance model of compressor determines the current of the compressor being activated in multi-joint compressor 14 The power system capacity (ESC) of assessment.Assessment system capacity can with from step 104 target capacity or capacity requirement is identical or phase Closely.Only for example, the power system capacity or target capacity of assessment can be imitated according to ten coefficient performance models and previously described compressor Rate formula determines.
Processing circuit unit 86 can be received from each sensor common discharge line temperature, saturation evaporator temperature and It is saturated condensation temperature, or common discharge pipeline temperature can be calculated according to the foregoing sensing data that other are received Degree, saturation evaporator temperature and saturation condensation temperature.At step 120, processing circuit unit 86 then can be according to various The compressor capacity of assessment that inputs to determine all applicable operation modes for multi-joint compressor 14 and associated The power dissipation of assessment.Only for example, compressor capacity can use ten systems for assessing compressor capacity and power consumption Performance model is counted to calculate.As above with reference to described in Fig. 3, each independent operation mode includes the group of the compressor enabled It closes, the compressor of enabling includes particularly to operate the arbitrary double-stage compressor of level operations.Processing circuit unit 86 uses use In ten coefficient performance models of capacity and power to calculate for each independent manipulation mode associated with multi-joint compressor 14 Assessment capacity and assessment power consumption.For example, as shown in Figure 3, non-uniform three-member type compressor has 11 phases Associated operation mode.In this case, processing circuit unit will use ten systems for incomparable inconsistent three-member type compressor Number performance models disappear come the capacity of assessment and the power of assessment for calculating for each operation mode in 11 operation modes Consumption.
At step 124, processing circuit unit 86 receives the capacity fault tolerance (ET) from memory 78.The ET can be with It is stored and is set in memory and initially by setter or manufacturer.The ET can also be changed by the user of system. Processing circuit unit 86 is subsequently used for the capability value of the assessment of each independent operation mode compared with target capacity, and Do not considered at step 128 with the assessment capability value beyond goal systems capacity plus or minus the range of fault tolerance (ET) All patterns.In other words, have the arbitrary of the assessment capability value in the fault tolerance (ET) for not falling within goal systems capacity Operation mode is not considered.
At step 132, processing circuit unit 86 to being analyzed for the performance number of remaining operation mode in consideration, And selection has the operation mode of minimum assessment power dissipation from the operation mode not being excluded in step 128.Mould The lowest power mode for meeting assessment system capacity in formula is optimization model, because lowest power mode meets target capacity Plus/minus fault tolerance (ET), while using the power of minimum.In other words, Optimum Operation pattern corresponds to multi-joint compressor 14 The power that can meet target capacity while consume minimum configuration.
At step 136, processing circuit unit 86 enables the contactor 38 and solenoid of multi-joint compressor 14 as needed 36 to realize optimization model or optimum state.As discussed above, optimum state will meet capacity need under lowest power mode It asks.In some cases, the current mode of multi-joint compressor 14 can already correspond to Optimum Operation pattern.In this feelings Under condition, processing circuit unit 86 need not enable or deactivate any compressor, or have no need to change any double-stage compressor Capacitance grade realize Optimum Operation pattern.In other cases, current mode can be different from Optimum Operation pattern. In this case, processing circuit unit 86 make as needed compressor enable or deactivate and order any double-stage compressor with Suitable capacitance grade operation, to realize Optimum Operation pattern.
