The four-way selector valve 2 is in the heating operating state (the refrigerant flow passage in the four-way selector valve is shown by the solid line in fig. 1), the three-way valve 7 is in the first operating state (the refrigerant flow passage in the three-way valve 7 is shown by the solid line in fig. 1), and the control valve 8 is in the closed state.
T5 is the temperature of the hot water in the first water storage tank 5, T6 is the temperature of the hot water in the second water storage tank 6, and Ts is the temperature of the hot water set by a user of the water heater.
Example 2: as shown in fig. 2, the heat pump water heater according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of tanks (4 tanks in total in the illustrated configuration, a, b, c, and d), only a refrigerant-water heat exchanger and corresponding control valves are shown, and a tank main body and a temperature sensor are not shown. The water tanks a, b, c, d are connected in sequence, wherein the water tank a is a basic water tank and comprises a refrigerant-water heat exchanger 51a and a control valve 8a. The water tanks b, c and d have the same structure and are composed of a refrigerant-water heat exchanger, a three-way valve and a control valve. As shown in fig. 2, when the water heater according to the present embodiment needs to install more than 4 water tanks, the water tank, such as the water tank b (or the water tanks c and d), may be installed at the position of "…" in fig. 2. The heat pump hot water heater as shown in fig. 2 can adjust the series-parallel relation between the current water tank and the subsequent water tank and the water tank before the water tank by adjusting the three-way valve and the control valve in the non-basic water tanks (b, c, d).
To describe the control when the heat pump water heater according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of water storage tanks, a case where there are 4 water storage tanks will be described here:
