The refrigeration system will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
An embodiment of the present application provides a refrigeration system, and fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the refrigeration system provided in the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the refrigeration system includes: a cold storage tank 120, at least two sets of refrigeration units 110 (four sets are illustrated in the figure), and an end load 130. Wherein the end load 130 may be an air conditioner or other equipment requiring water cooling, etc.
Each refrigeration unit 110 includes a refrigerator 111 and a plate heat exchanger 112 connected in series, that is, the water outlet end of the plate heat exchanger 112 is connected to the water inlet end of the refrigeration unit 110, the water inlet end of the plate heat exchanger 112 is the water inlet end of the refrigeration unit 110, and the water outlet end of the refrigerator 111 is the water outlet end of the refrigeration unit 110. Wherein the plate heat exchanger 112 is also called plate heat exchanger, is a heat exchanger formed by stacking a series of metal sheets with certain corrugated shape; while the refrigerator 111 transfers heat of the cooled object having a low temperature to the ambient medium to obtain cold, and energy conversion and heat transfer are achieved by the refrigerant. Typically the plate heat exchanger has a lower refrigeration efficiency than the refrigerator.
In the present embodiment, the water inlet end of each refrigeration unit 110 is respectively communicated with the water outlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water outlet end of the end load 130; the water outlet end of each refrigeration unit 110 is respectively communicated with the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130. By connecting at least two sets of refrigeration units 110 in parallel, it is possible to flexibly employ a configuration in which at least one set of refrigeration units 110 simultaneously supplies cold water to the end load 130 and the cold storage tank 120, i.e., supplies cold to the end load 130 while simultaneously charging the cold storage tank 120.
In the present embodiment, at least two sets of refrigeration units 110 are used to control whether the refrigerator 111 and/or the plate heat exchanger 112 of each refrigeration unit 110 is operated when the cooling capacity requirements of the end load 130 are different, respectively, so as to inject cold water into the end load 130 and the cold storage tank 120.
In this embodiment, since at least two sets of refrigeration units 110 are used in parallel, and each refrigeration unit 110 includes a refrigerator 111 and a plate heat exchanger 112 connected in series, for any refrigeration unit 110, there are three refrigeration modes, namely: only the plate heat exchanger 112 is turned on, only the refrigerator 111 is turned on, and both the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are turned on.
The temperatures of the cold water provided by the three refrigeration modes are different, for example, only the plate heat exchanger 112 is started to have the highest water temperature, only the refrigerator 111 is started to have the lowest water temperature, and the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are started to have the lowest water temperature, if at least two sets of refrigeration units 110 are adopted at the same time, the cold water output by each refrigeration unit can be mixed, and the mixed cold water can realize more possible temperatures by taking into account the starting number of the refrigeration units 110, the starting modes of the refrigeration units 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 between the started refrigeration units 110, various strategies of starting the refrigerator 111 and/or the plate heat exchanger 112 of each started refrigeration unit 110, and the like, and of course, the flow rate of the cold water output by the started refrigeration units 110 can be controlled.
For example, the first set of refrigeration units 110 only starts the plate heat exchanger 112, the second set of refrigeration units 110 simultaneously starts the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112, the first set of refrigeration units 110 outputs a relatively high water temperature, and the second set of refrigeration units 110 outputs a relatively low water temperature, so that the water temperature obtained after mixing is between the two water temperatures, and if the two sets of refrigeration units 110 output the same cold water flow, the water temperature after mixing can be a middle value of the two water temperatures.
Based on the above-mentioned refrigerating system, in this embodiment, considering that the cooling capacity requirements of the end load 130 are different, for example, when the data center is operated under high load, the cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130 is higher, a lower water temperature is adopted, and when the data center is operated under low load, the cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130 is lower, a lower water temperature is adopted, and through the above-mentioned refrigerating system and different control strategies, the corresponding required water temperature can be output, so that energy saving can be realized while the cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130 is satisfied. It should be noted that, the above-mentioned refrigerating system adopts different control strategies, which can be controlled manually or automatically by the controller.
In the refrigeration system provided in this embodiment, at least two sets of refrigeration units 110 are provided through the refrigeration system, each refrigeration unit 110 includes a refrigerator 111 and a plate heat exchanger 112 connected in series, and whether the refrigerator 111 and/or the plate heat exchanger 112 of each refrigeration unit 110 operate or not is controlled according to the cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130, so that cooling water with a required temperature can be provided to the cold storage tank 120 and the end load 130, so that energy saving is achieved while the cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130 is satisfied; in addition, the refrigerating system can stably operate, the cold accumulation tank 120 can stably charge and discharge cold, and the phenomenon of surge and the like of the refrigerator 111 can not occur; and the refrigeration system has low cost, is convenient to implement and maintain, can be suitable for refrigeration of scenes such as a data center and the like, and is also beneficial to reducing the energy efficiency index PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) of the data center.
Optionally, the refrigeration system may further comprise a controller to implement automatic control of different refrigeration strategies of the refrigeration system.
Specifically, the controller is respectively connected with the end load 130 and at least two sets of refrigeration units 110; the controller is configured to obtain a target cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130, and control whether the refrigerator 111 and/or the plate heat exchanger 112 of each refrigeration unit 110 operate according to the target cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130, so as to inject cold water into the end load 130 and the cold storage tank 120.
The controller obtains the target cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130, and may specifically detect an operation state of the data center, for example, when the data center is operated under a high load, determine that the target cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130 is higher, and if the data center is operated under a low load, determine that the target cooling capacity requirement of the end load 130 is lower. Specifically, the level of the data center operation load may be quantified in advance, and a corresponding relationship between the load and the target cooling capacity demand of the end load 130 may be determined, so that after the data center load is detected, the target cooling capacity demand of the end load 130 may be determined according to the corresponding relationship.
The current refrigerating capacity of the refrigerator and the plate heat exchanger in the refrigerating unit is influenced by relevant factors such as current weather and the like, for example, the refrigerating capacity of the refrigerator and the plate heat exchanger is reduced when the air temperature is high. The refrigeration capacity of the refrigerator and the plate heat exchanger needs to be taken into account when specifying the refrigeration strategy, while taking into account the refrigeration demand of the end load. In addition, the corresponding relationship between the current refrigeration capacities of the refrigerators and the plate heat exchangers in the refrigeration units and the preset refrigeration strategy can be obtained in advance, and then after the target refrigeration capacity of the terminal load 130 and the current refrigeration capacities of the refrigerators and the plate heat exchangers are determined, the corresponding relationship between the preset terminal load 130 refrigeration capacity, the current refrigeration capacities of the refrigerators and the plate heat exchangers in the refrigeration units and the preset refrigeration strategy is queried, so that the target refrigeration strategy of the refrigeration system is determined, and then whether the refrigerators 111 and/or the plate heat exchangers 112 of each refrigeration unit 110 work or not is controlled according to the target refrigeration strategy, so as to meet the refrigeration capacity requirement of the terminal load 130.
On the basis of any one of the above embodiments, the refrigeration system specifically further includes a primary pump 140; the number of the primary pumps 140 may be the same as the number of the refrigerating units 110, the water inlet end of each refrigerating unit 110 is respectively connected to one primary pump 140, and the water outlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water outlet end of the end load 130 are converged and then connected to each primary pump 140, so as to feed water into the water inlet end of the refrigerating unit 110 connected with the primary pump 140 after the primary pump 140 is started.
That is, in this embodiment, when the first set of refrigeration units 110 needs to be applied, the primary pump 140 connected to the first set of refrigeration units 110 is started, and the water collected at the water outlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water outlet end of the end load 130 is input to the water inlet end of the first set of refrigeration units 110 through the primary pump 140; likewise, when a second set of refrigeration units 110 is desired, then the primary pump 140 to which the second set of refrigeration units 110 is connected is activated, and so on.
It should be noted that whether the primary pump 140 is activated is determined by the above-described refrigeration strategy. The control of the primary pumps 140 may be manually controlled or may be automatically controlled by the controller described above, and accordingly, it is necessary that the controller is connected to each of the primary pumps 140.
In addition to any of the above embodiments, the refrigeration system may further include an annular circuit 150; the water outlet end of each refrigeration unit 110 is connected to the annular pipeline 150, and the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130 are connected to the annular pipeline 150, respectively, so that the cold water output from the water outlet end of the refrigeration unit 110 reaches the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130 in the shortest path in the annular pipeline 150.
In this embodiment, the shortest path can be selected by the loop pipe 150 for the cold water output by the refrigeration unit 110 to reach the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130, for example, as shown in fig. 1, the cold water output by the left refrigeration unit 110 can reach the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130 from the path on the left side of the loop pipe 150, and the cold water output by the right refrigeration unit 110 can reach the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130 from the path on the right side of the loop pipe 150, in addition, the loop pipe 150 can facilitate the mixing of the cold water output by the different refrigeration units 110, and the cold water output by the different refrigeration units 110 can be converged from the different paths to the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end of the end load 130 and then be input to the water inlet end of the cold storage tank 120 and the water inlet end 130 after mixing.
On the basis of the above embodiment, the refrigeration system further includes a secondary pump 160 for connecting the water inlet end of the end load 130 with the loop pipe 150 to feed water into the water inlet end of the end load 130 after the secondary pump 160 is started.
Optionally, the secondary pump 160 includes a first type of secondary pump 161 and a second type of secondary pump 162;
at least two secondary pumps 161 of the first type are provided, and the water inlet end of each secondary pump 161 of the first type is connected to different positions of the annular pipeline 150, so that water can be fed to the end load 130 by starting the secondary pump 161 of the first type when only one refrigeration unit 110 is used for refrigeration, or when at least two refrigeration units 110 are used for refrigeration and the starting modes of each refrigeration unit 110 on the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are the same. And the flow rate of the second-type secondary pump 162 is larger than that of the first-type secondary pump 161, so that when the plurality of refrigeration units 110 are used for refrigeration and the starting modes of each refrigeration unit 110 on the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are different, the cold water of different refrigeration units 110 is mixed by starting the second-type secondary pump 162 and then water is fed to the end load 130.
In this embodiment, when only one refrigeration unit 110 is used for refrigeration, or when at least two refrigeration units 110 are used for refrigeration and the starting modes of each refrigeration unit 110 for the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are the same, the cold water output by the refrigeration unit 110 in this case has a single temperature, and is not required to be mixed, the water inlet ends of the at least two first-type secondary pumps 161 are connected to different positions of the annular pipeline 150, so that the cold water output by the water outlet ends of the refrigeration units 110 can reach the water inlet end of the end load 130 in the shortest path in the annular pipeline 150, as shown in fig. 1, when the left refrigeration unit 110 is used, the left-side first-type secondary pump 161 closest to the water outlet end of the left refrigeration unit 110 can be started, and the cold water output by the left-side refrigeration unit 110 can reach the left-side first-type secondary pump 161 from the left path of the annular pipeline 150, and is input to the water inlet end of the end load 130 through the left-side first-type secondary pump 161; when the right side refrigeration unit 110 is used, the right side first type secondary pump 161 closest to the water outlet end of the right side refrigeration unit 110 may be activated. In addition, at least two secondary pumps 161 of the first type may also be used for mutual backup, for example, when one secondary pump 161 of the first type fails, another secondary pump 161 of the first type may be used, and water can be fed to the water inlet end of the end load 130.
In the case that a plurality of refrigeration units 110 are used for refrigeration and the starting modes of each refrigeration unit 110 on the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are different, the cold water output by each refrigeration unit 110 is different in temperature and needs to be mixed, so that the cold water of different refrigeration units 110 is mixed by the second-type secondary pump 162 with a larger flow and then is input to the water inlet end of the end load 130, a better mixing effect is ensured, and the water temperature after mixing is stable.
It should be noted that whether the secondary pump is started is also determined by the above-described refrigeration strategy, that is, the first type secondary pump 161 is started at a proper position when water mixing is not required, and the second type secondary pump 162 is started when water mixing is required. Likewise, the control of the secondary pumps may be manually controlled or automatically controlled by the controller described above, and accordingly, the controller is required to be connected to each secondary pump.
On the basis of any of the above embodiments, the annular pipeline 150 is connected to the water inlet end of the cold accumulation tank 120 through at least two pipes 170; the water inlet end of each pipeline 170 is connected to different positions of the annular pipeline 150, and each pipeline 170 is provided with a valve 171, so that when a plurality of refrigeration units 110 are adopted for refrigeration and the starting modes of each refrigeration unit 110 on the refrigerator 111 and the plate heat exchanger 112 are different, cold water of different refrigeration units 110 is controlled to be mixed through the valve 171 and then fed into the cold storage tank 120, and the cold storage tank 120 is charged with cold.
