Description

Magnetic refrigeration system and control method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a refrigerating system and a control method, in particular to a magnetic refrigerating system and a control method.
Background
Refrigeration systems are widely used in the domestic and industrial fields, which utilize a refrigerant, such as a chlorofluorocarbon or hydrochlorofluorocarbon, to exchange heat with other media, such as air, during condensation and evaporation. However, such refrigerants may cause environmental problems such as destruction of the ozone layer and global warming.
Magnetic cooling devices are currently the best alternative to refrigerant cooling devices. The magnetic cooling device is a cooling device utilizing a magneto-caloric effect. Specifically, the magnetic cooling device utilizes the heat absorption or heat release process of the magnetic material due to the change of the magnetic field, thereby completing the heat exchange with the air.
In a conventional magnetic cooling device, at least one magnetic regenerator including a magnetic material rotates or reciprocates between the inside and outside of a magnetic field generated by a magnet, resulting in a temperature change of the magnetic material included in the magnetic regenerator. Because of the alternating cold and hot changes of the magnetic material, the continuity of cooling cannot be achieved by only one regenerator. Therefore, the continuous refrigeration realized by alternately working a plurality of cold accumulators is a problem which needs to be solved at present.
Chinese patent CN 109780751a discloses a magnetic refrigeration system, which, although it claims to achieve continuous refrigeration of the system with its control scheme, is not difficult to find by careful analysis, which only achieves continuous flow of cold storage liquid/cooling liquid and not continuity of the cooling liquid endothermic process. The scheme is that magnetization, hot flow and demagnetization and cold flow in a single basic flow path respectively account for half of the whole control period, which is unreasonable on a magnetic refrigerating system, and the scheme inevitably leads to unstable refrigeration, low refrigeration efficiency and small refrigeration temperature span.
Chinese patent document CN105452783a discloses a magnetic refrigeration device. In the document, a plurality of cold accumulators are alternately cooled by a permanent magnet rotation mode, and continuous cooling is realized by switching a flow path through a valve body. However, it is not difficult to analyze the scheme, and the flow path switching period is necessarily 1/2 of one refrigerating period. The problems of the method are the same as those of the Chinese patent document.
To achieve stable refrigeration and large temperature spans for magnetic refrigeration systems, a back-cooling/back-heating process is necessary. In the heat absorption process of the cold accumulator, the long-time flowing of the cooling liquid can increase the heat load of the refrigeration end and reduce the efficiency of the refrigeration system. Researches show that the heat absorption time of the cold accumulator is about 30% in a refrigeration cycle to be in a reasonable state.
