Detailed Description
Referring to fig. 1 to 5 in combination, according to an embodiment of the present application, a composite refrigeration system includes a compression refrigeration system and a magnetic refrigeration system, the compression refrigeration system includes a first heat exchanger 2 of a compressor 1, a throttling device 3, and a second heat exchanger 4, the magnetic refrigeration system includes a bi-directional pump 6, a first regenerator 7, and a second regenerator 8, the first regenerator 7 is connected in parallel with the throttling device 3, the first regenerator 7 and the throttling device 3 can be selectively communicated with the first heat exchanger 2, a second pipeline is connected in parallel with the outside of the first pipeline where the compressor 1 is located, the bi-directional pump 6 and the second regenerator 8 are connected in series on the second pipeline, and the second regenerator 8 is located between the bi-directional pump 6 and the second heat exchanger 4.
The composite refrigerating system couples the magnetic refrigerating system and the compression refrigerating system together, so that heat exchange fluid of the magnetic refrigerating system and heat exchange fluid of the compression refrigerating system use refrigerants of the vapor compression refrigerating system, and the composite refrigerating system has three working modes of vapor compression refrigerating, magnetic refrigerating and natural cold source refrigerating by controlling the switching of different flow paths, thereby fully playing the advantages of the systems and improving the refrigerating efficiency of the systems.
The composite refrigeration system can utilize the vapor compression refrigeration system to perform rapid refrigeration, and utilize the magnetic refrigeration system or the natural cold source to realize low-power-consumption refrigeration, and can select different control modes according to different working states of the composite refrigeration system, so as to realize the energy efficiency maximization of the composite refrigeration system.
The first regenerator 7, the throttling device 3 and the first heat exchanger 2 are connected through a three-way valve 5. The first regenerator 7, the throttle device 3 and the first heat exchanger 2 may also be realized by other valves or combinations of valves.
For example, in one embodiment, the throttle device 3 is provided with a first shut-off valve in the line and the first regenerator 7 is provided with a second shut-off valve in the line.
The throttling device is an electronic expansion valve.
The compressor 1 and the bi-directional pump 6 can drive the refrigerant in the flow path of the system to circulate in the closed loop, the first heat exchanger 2 is arranged in the non-refrigeration area and used for radiating the heat generated by the system into the non-refrigeration area, and the second heat exchanger 4 is arranged in the refrigeration area and used for radiating the cold generated by the system into the refrigeration area so as to realize the refrigeration purpose.
In each of the above drawings, A0, A1, A2, B0, B1, B2, C1, C2 are flow paths; s1 is a first control valve, and S2 is a second control valve.
The system can switch different working modes according to the working requirements so as to achieve different refrigeration functions and system performances. By controlling the start and stop of the compressor 1 and the bi-directional pump 6, the compound refrigeration system shown in fig. 1 can have at least the following three modes of operation:
(1) Mode 1: vapor compression refrigeration mode
This mode is operated when the temperature of the non-cooling region is high, i.e., the ambient temperature differs greatly from the cooling target temperature. When the mode is started, the controller controls the compressor 1 to start to operate, simultaneously controls the bi-directional pump 6 to stop operating, and controls the three-way valve 5 to connect the pipeline A0 and the pipeline A1, so that a circulation flow path of the compressor 1, the first heat exchanger 2, the three-way valve 5, the throttling device 3, the second heat exchanger 4 and the compressor 1 is formed, as shown in fig. 2. This mode is substantially the same as a conventional vapor compression refrigeration system, and allows the temperature in the refrigeration zone to be reduced to a target temperature value in a short period of time.
More specifically, the working principle of the vapor compression refrigeration mode is as follows: the compressor 1 highly compresses the refrigerant circulated from the second heat exchanger 4, compresses the gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure state, and sends the compressed refrigerant to the first heat exchanger 2, and dissipates heat to a non-cooling area to form a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant. The liquid refrigerant can be subjected to further depressurization and cooling through the throttling device 3 through the three-way valve 5 to become a low-pressure low-temperature gas-liquid mixed state, and then enters the second heat exchanger 4, the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is vaporized in the second heat exchanger 4, and the refrigerant absorbs a large amount of heat in the phase change process from liquid state to gas state, so that the refrigeration of a refrigeration area is realized. The refrigerant from the second heat exchanger 4 becomes superheated gaseous, and then the gaseous refrigerant returns to the compressor 1 to continue circulation.
(2) Mode 2: magnetic refrigeration mode
The working principle of the magnetic refrigeration system is as follows: the application of a varying magnetic field to the magnetocaloric material causes a magnetocaloric effect, i.e. the magnetocaloric material releases heat outwards when the magnetic field generator applies a magnetic field to the regenerator (magnetizing) and releases cold outwards when the magnetic field generator removes a magnetic field from the regenerator (demagnetizing). The mode of the magnetic field generator in the system for generating the changing magnetic field can be the changing magnetic field generated by an electromagnet, or the changing magnetic field generated by the movement of a permanent magnet and a cold accumulator.
This mode is operated when the temperature of the non-cooling region is low, i.e., the ambient temperature is less different from the cooling target temperature. When the mode is started, the controller controls the bi-directional pump 6 to start to operate, controls the compressor 1 to stop operating, and controls the three-way valve 5 to connect the pipeline A0 and the pipeline A2, so that a circulation flow path of the bi-directional pump 6-the first heat exchanger 2-the three-way valve 5-the first cold accumulator 7-the second heat exchanger 4-the second cold accumulator 8-the bi-directional pump 6 is formed, as shown in fig. 3. This mode is substantially the same as existing magnetic refrigeration systems, can operate at lower frequencies and achieve refrigeration under operating conditions with small temperature span requirements. Compared with a compression refrigeration mode, the mode fully exerts the advantages of the magnetic refrigeration system, namely high refrigeration efficiency, low operation frequency and low noise power consumption. After the rapid refrigeration is performed by using the compression refrigeration mode, the refrigeration balance of the small temperature span can be performed by using the magnetic refrigeration mode, so that the temperature in the refrigeration area is dynamically kept near the target temperature.
More specifically, the working principle of the magnetic refrigeration mode is as follows: the first regenerator 7 and the second regenerator 8 in the system can periodically perform magnetization and demagnetization under the action of the magnetic field generator, and the magnetization and demagnetization states of the first regenerator 7 and the second regenerator 8 are just opposite, namely, when the first regenerator 7 performs magnetization and heating, the second regenerator 8 performs demagnetization and cooling, otherwise, when the first regenerator 7 performs demagnetization and cooling, the second regenerator 8 performs magnetization and heating. When the mode works, the refrigerant in the pipeline flows back and forth under the drive of the bidirectional pump 6.
Each working cycle period of the mode is divided into a first stage and a second stage according to the flow direction of the refrigerant in the pipeline, and the specific working conditions are as follows:
the first stage: the magnetic field generator magnetizes the first regenerator 7 and demagnetizes the second regenerator 8. When the first regenerator 7 is magnetized to generate heat, the refrigerant flows along the directions of the first regenerator 7-pipeline A2-pipeline A0-first heat exchanger 2 under the action of the bidirectional pump, so that the refrigerant can transfer the heat in the first regenerator 7 to the first heat exchanger 2 for heat dissipation; at the same time, the second regenerator 8 demagnetizes to generate cold, the refrigerant flows along the direction from the bi-directional pump 6 to the pipeline B2 to the second regenerator 8 to the pipeline B0 to the second heat exchanger 4 under the drive of the bi-directional pump 6, so that the refrigerant can transfer the cold in the second regenerator 8 to the second heat exchanger 4, and then the temperature of the refrigerating area is gradually reduced through the heat exchange between the second heat exchanger 4 and the air in the refrigerating area.
And a second stage: the magnetic field generator demagnetizes the first regenerator 7 and magnetizes the second regenerator 8. When the first regenerator 7 demagnetizes to generate cold energy, the refrigerant flows along the direction of the first regenerator 7-second heat exchanger 4 under the action of the bidirectional pump 6, so that the refrigerant can transfer the cold energy in the first regenerator 7 to the second heat exchanger 4, and then the refrigerant exchanges heat with the air in the refrigerating area through the second heat exchanger 4 to gradually reduce the temperature in the refrigerating area; at the same time, the second regenerator 8 is magnetized to generate heat, and the refrigerant flows along the direction of the pipeline B0-the second regenerator 8-the pipeline B2-the bidirectional pump 6-the first heat exchanger 2 under the drive of the bidirectional pump 6, so that the refrigerant can transfer the heat in the second regenerator 8 to the first heat exchanger 2 and then radiate the heat to a non-refrigeration area through the first heat exchanger 2.
The above two cooling modes are operation modes in which cooling of the cooling region is required when the temperature of the non-cooling region is higher than the temperature of the cooling region. In addition, in the case that the temperature of the non-refrigeration area is lower than that of the refrigeration area, the refrigeration system of the present application can adopt the following operation modes:
(3) Mode 3: natural cold source refrigeration mode
In the refrigeration mode, the controller controls the bi-directional pump 6 to start to operate, simultaneously controls the compressor 1 to stop operating, simultaneously controls the magnetic field generator to stop operating, and controls the three-way valve 5 to connect the main flow path A0 and the branch flow path A1, so that the composite refrigeration system forms a system loop shown in fig. 4, namely the bi-directional pump 6-the first heat exchanger 2-the flow path A0-the three-way valve 5-the flow path A1-the throttling device 3-the second heat exchanger 4-the flow path B0-the flow path B2-the bi-directional pump 6.
More specifically, when the temperature of the non-cooling region is lower than that of the cooling region, the controller switches the system to a mode in which the refrigerant reciprocally flows by the bidirectional pump 6, and each flow cycle period of the mode can be divided into two stages according to the flow direction of the refrigerant:
The first stage: the two-way pump 6 drives the refrigerant into the first heat exchanger 2, the temperature of the refrigerant entering the first heat exchanger 2 is reduced because of lower temperature of the non-refrigeration area, then the refrigerant flows through the three-way valve 5 and the throttling device 3 under the action of the pumping pressure and flows into the second heat exchanger 4 to provide cold for the refrigeration area, and the refrigerant returns to the two-way pump after heat exchange is completed.
And a second stage: the two-way pump 6 drives the refrigerant into the second heat exchanger 4 to perform secondary heat exchange, further fully releases cold in the refrigerant into a refrigerating area, then flows into the first heat exchanger 2 through the throttling device 3 and the three-way valve 5, releases heat in the refrigerant into a non-refrigerating area to obtain cold, and flows into the two-way pump 6.
When the refrigerant in the first stage flows into the first heat exchanger 2 under the action of the pump pressure after passing through the second stage, secondary refrigeration is actually performed, so that the cooling capacity in the refrigerant is larger, and the heat exchange efficiency of the system is higher.
The mode is operated when the temperature of the non-refrigeration area is lower than that of the refrigeration area, and the natural cold source is fully utilized for refrigeration when the refrigeration area is required to be refrigerated, so that the system efficiency can be effectively improved.
The bidirectional pump 6 can be a double-acting piston pump with an anti-corrosion function, the piston pump realizes bidirectional driving of the refrigerant through reciprocating motion of the piston, and the liquid containing volumes at two sides of the piston are the same.
In order to enable the composite refrigeration system to meet the requirements of more efficient automatic temperature control and intelligent refrigeration, a plurality of sensors are arranged in the system and used as signal input sources of a control system. The temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the refrigerating area is arranged in the refrigerating area, the real-time temperature value of the refrigerating area detected by the temperature sensor is T1, the temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the non-refrigerating area is arranged in the non-refrigerating area, and the temperature value of the non-refrigerating area detected by the temperature sensor is T2. In addition, the system also needs to set a target temperature value T0 for the cooling zone.
Referring to fig. 5 in combination, there is shown a structure of another composite refrigeration system, which is basically the same as the structure of the foregoing composite refrigeration system, except that in this embodiment, a first bypass line C1 is provided in parallel outside the first regenerator 7, and a first control valve S1 is provided on the first bypass line. A second bypass pipeline C2 is arranged outside the second cold accumulator 8 in parallel, and a second control valve S2 is arranged on the second bypass pipeline. The first control valve S1 is a solenoid valve. The second control valve S2 is a solenoid valve.
In this embodiment, when the system is in the natural cold source refrigeration mode, the controller controls the first control valve S1 to switch on the first bypass pipeline C1, and the second control valve S2 to switch on the second bypass pipeline C2, so that the refrigerant can pass through the first bypass pipeline C1 and the second bypass pipeline C2, thereby reducing the pressure resistance of the system and reducing the power consumption of the system.

Further, the controller judges whether the temperature T2 of the non-refrigeration area is smaller than or equal to the temperature value b, when the temperature T2 of the non-refrigeration area is smaller than or equal to the temperature value b, the temperature T2 of the non-refrigeration area is lower at present, refrigeration of the refrigeration area can be realized by utilizing a natural cold source mode, the controller starts and operates the natural cold source refrigeration mode of the mode 3, and the low-temperature cold quantity of the non-refrigeration area is brought into the refrigeration area through heat exchange fluid, so that a green and efficient refrigeration effect is realized; otherwise, if the temperature T2 of the non-refrigeration area is greater than b, the temperature T2 of the non-refrigeration area is higher at present, the refrigeration of the refrigeration area is not realized by using a natural cold source mode, the controller starts and operates the magnetic refrigeration mode of the mode 2, and the magnetic heating effect is utilized to realize the green and efficient refrigeration effect.
