Description

Refrigerator equipment, refrigerating system and control method of refrigerating system

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of refrigeration equipment, and for example, to a refrigerator device, a refrigeration system, and a control method thereof.

Background

The electronic expansion valve is a throttling element which can adjust the flow of a refrigerant of a refrigerating device according to a preset program, and is commonly used for controlling the throttling of the flow of the refrigerant of refrigerating equipment such as a refrigerator, an air conditioner and the like; especially, in some occasions with severe load change or wider operation condition range in the operation process of refrigeration equipment, the traditional throttling elements (such as capillary tubes, thermal expansion valves and the like) can not meet the requirements of comfort and energy conservation, and the electronic expansion valve is more and more widely applied as a throttling element with more comprehensive functions.

The electronic expansion valve has the advantages of high response and action speed, generally, the electronic expansion valve only needs a few seconds from a fully closed state to a fully opened state, and the opening and closing characteristics and the speed can be set manually; the electronic expansion valve can be accurately adjusted within the range of 10% -100%, and the adjustment range can be set according to the actual working requirements of different refrigeration equipment products.

For the existing refrigeration equipment using an electronic expansion valve, a control method of the electronic expansion valve generally adjusts the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve according to the superheat degree of a refrigerant detected by an evaporator of the refrigeration equipment, for example, when the superheat degree of the refrigerant is high, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is increased, and when the superheat degree of the refrigerant is low, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is decreased. Correspondingly, in order to realize the control flow, the refrigeration equipment needs to be provided with a refrigerant superheat degree control system consisting of an electronic expansion valve, a pressure sensor, a temperature sensor, a controller and the like, wherein the pressure sensor is mainly responsible for detecting the evaporation pressure of the refrigerant in the evaporator and converting the evaporation pressure value into a current signal of 4 mA-20 mA; the temperature sensor can generate corresponding resistance value signals according to different temperatures; the controller can receive a 4 mA-20 mA current signal sent by the pressure sensor and a resistance value signal of the temperature sensor, determine the refrigerant superheat degree of the evaporator according to the signals, and further send out a pulse signal through a built-in program to control the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve; the electronic expansion valve controls the opening of the expansion valve according to the received pulse signal, and ensures proper liquid supply amount and proper superheat degree.

The control flow needs to arrange a plurality of sensors such as a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor at the middle part or the outlet position of the evaporator; because the evaporators of refrigeration equipment such as a refrigerator are mostly arranged in a foaming layer, on one hand, the sensor is inconvenient to install, and on the other hand, the sensor is not easy to disassemble, assemble and maintain when in failure.

Detailed Description

So that the manner in which the features and elements of the disclosed embodiments can be understood in detail, a more particular description of the disclosed embodiments, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the appended drawings. In the following description of the technology, for purposes of explanation, numerous details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced without these details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices may be shown in simplified form in order to simplify the drawing.

In the embodiment of the present application, the control method of the refrigeration system 11 can control and adjust the flow opening of the throttling device 14 according to the first temperature of the external environment, the suction temperature of the compressor 15, and the supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the outlet of the condenser; therefore, the internal structure complication caused by the arrangement of a plurality of sensors on the heat exchanger can be avoided, the internal assembly structure of the refrigeration system 11 and the refrigeration equipment using the refrigeration system can be effectively simplified, and the accurate adjustment and control of the opening degree of the throttling devices 14 such as the electronic expansion valve and the like can be still ensured.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating the construction of a refrigeration system 11 of the present application according to an exemplary embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, the refrigeration system 11 includes a refrigerant circulation loop mainly formed by connecting a condenser 111 for exchanging heat with the outside, an evaporator 112 for exchanging heat with the inside, a compressor 15, and a throttling device 14, and the refrigeration system 11 further includes a heat regenerator 16, wherein a first heat recovery chamber 161 of the heat regenerator is connected in series with a refrigerant pipe section between the condenser 111 and the throttling device 14, and a second heat recovery chamber 162 of the heat regenerator is connected in series with a refrigerant pipe section between the evaporator 112 and the compressor 15.

Herein, regenerator 16 includes a first regenerative chamber 161 and a second regenerative chamber 162. The first heat recovery chamber 161 of the heat regenerator is connected in series with the refrigerant pipe section between the condenser 111 and the throttle device 14, and the second heat recovery chamber 162 of the heat regenerator is connected in series with the refrigerant pipe between the evaporator 112 and the compressor 15. In a refrigeration system comprising a heat regenerator, if the opening degree of a throttling device is controlled by a conventional method for detecting the superheat degree of a refrigerant at an outlet of an evaporator, a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor are required to be arranged at the outlet of the evaporator, and in a refrigeration device such as a common refrigerator and the like, the evaporator is arranged in a foaming layer, so that the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor at the outlet of the evaporator are arranged in the foaming layer, thus the installation and the maintenance of the sensor are very inconvenient, and in view of the problems, in the application, a method for detecting the first temperature of the external environment, the suction temperature of a compressor and the supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the outlet of a condenser is adopted to control and adjust the flow opening degree of the throttling device, the opening degree is controlled without depending on parameters detected by the sensor arranged on the evaporator, the installation of the sensor is effectively simplified, and the maintenance is convenient, and still can guarantee to the accurate regulation control of throttling device aperture such as electronic expansion valve.

In some embodiments, in the case where the refrigeration system is applied to an air conditioning apparatus, the condenser 111 is a heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigeration system 11 and the outdoor environment; the evaporator 112 is a heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigeration system 11 and the indoor environment; under the condition that the refrigeration system is applied to the refrigerator equipment, the condenser 111 is a heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigeration system 11 and the environment outside the refrigerator equipment shell; the evaporator 112 is a heat exchanger for exchanging heat between the refrigeration system 11 and the refrigerated environment within the freezer housing.

In some optional embodiments, the control method comprises:

acquiring a first temperature of an external environment exchanging heat with the condenser 111 and a suction temperature of the compressor 15 in the operation process of the refrigeration system;

determining the supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the refrigerant outlet of the condenser 111;

the flow opening of the throttling device is controlled and adjusted according to the first temperature of the external environment, the suction temperature of the compressor 15 and the refrigerant supercooling degree of the refrigerant outlet of the condenser 111.

The application device of the refrigeration system 11 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present disclosure, and may be the refrigeration system 11 of the refrigerator device 1, at this time, all the refrigeration systems 11 are installed in the housing of the refrigerator device 1, the refrigerator device 1 is generally placed in an indoor environment, and the external environment temperature detected by the first temperature sensor 121 is the indoor environment temperature.

The refrigeration system 11 of the embodiment of the present disclosure can also be applied to an air conditioning apparatus, which generally includes an outdoor unit and an indoor unit, and the external ambient temperature detected by the first temperature sensor 121 is the outdoor ambient temperature.

Alternatively, in the refrigeration system 11, the evaporator 112 discharges a low-temperature low-pressure gaseous refrigerant through a refrigerant pipeline to the compressor 15, and the refrigerant in the pipeline is compressed into a high-temperature high-pressure gaseous refrigerant by the operation of the compressor 15, where the suction temperature of the compressor 15 is the temperature of the low-temperature low-pressure gaseous refrigerant entering the compressor 15.

Alternatively, in the refrigeration system 11, since the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid refrigerant flows into the pipeline of the evaporator 112, passes through the evaporator 112, in actual operation, it is difficult to ensure sufficient heat exchange, and the refrigerant flowing out of the evaporator 112 may have a gas-liquid coexisting state, however, the refrigerant entering the compressor 15 is very strict, must be a gaseous refrigerant, to ensure that the refrigerant in the refrigerant line section between the evaporator 112 and the compressor 15 is entirely in a gaseous state, therefore, the refrigeration system 11 incorporates a regenerator 16, after the refrigerant flows out of the evaporator 112, the refrigerant enters the second regenerative chamber 162 of the regenerator, so that the refrigerant in the pipeline is fully heat-exchanged and is completely in a gas state, upon exiting the second regenerative chamber 162 of the regenerator, into the gaseous refrigerant suction inlet of the compressor 15, at which time, the suction temperature of the compressor 15 is the temperature of the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant entering the compressor 15.

The throttling device 14 in the refrigeration system 11 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is not specifically limited, and may be an electronic expansion valve, and the electronic expansion valve receives an electrical signal generated by the controller 13, so that the refrigeration liquid supply amount of the stepless variable capacity refrigeration system may be adjusted in a wide range, the adjustment reaction is fast, and the flow opening of the refrigerant passing through the pipeline may be controlled steplessly.

Optionally, in the refrigeration system 11, a low-temperature low-pressure gaseous refrigerant enters the compressor 15, and through the working operation of the compressor 15, a gaseous high-temperature high-pressure gaseous refrigerant is output, enters the refrigerant pipeline, then enters the condenser 111, and through the heat exchange between the condenser 111 and the external environment, the temperature of the refrigerant is reduced, and a gaseous low-temperature high-pressure gaseous refrigerant is output, in order to reduce the flow pressure in the refrigerant pipeline, the refrigerant flowing out of the throttling device 14 is a low-temperature low-pressure liquid refrigerant through the throttling device 14, for example, through a partially reduced refrigerant pipeline, and then the low-temperature low-pressure liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator 112 to refrigerate the refrigeration portion of the refrigeration system 11, for example, the refrigeration system 11 is applied to a freezer, and the evaporator 112 refrigerates a heat preservation space in the freezer, so that a refrigeration environment is formed; if the refrigeration system 11 is used in an air conditioner, the evaporator 112 is installed in an indoor unit of the air conditioner to cool the indoor environment.

Optionally, in order to convert the low-temperature high-pressure gaseous refrigerant output by the condenser 111 into a low-temperature low-pressure liquid refrigerant as much as possible through the throttling device 14, and provide a sufficient cold source for the evaporator 112, the refrigeration system 11 may add the heat regenerator 16, and after the refrigerant flows out of the condenser 111, the refrigerant enters the first heat recovery chamber 161 of the heat regenerator, so that the refrigerant in the pipeline performs heat exchange, and meanwhile, the refrigerant in the second heat recovery chamber 162 of the heat regenerator also absorbs heat, is fully vaporized, and is completely converted into a gaseous refrigerant, and enters the compressor 15. The refrigerant passing through the first heat recovery chamber 161 of the heat regenerator flows out to enter the throttle device 14, and the circulation operation of the refrigerant circulation circuit is continued.

In this embodiment, the first temperature of the refrigeration system 11 and the suction temperature are both in degrees celsius.
