Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without making any creative effort based on the embodiments in the present invention, belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
Referring to fig. 1 to 6, an inverter cooling system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a condenser 10, an inverter 20, an economizer 30, an evaporator 40, a compressor 50, and a throttling device 60.
The compressor 50, the condenser 10, and the throttling device 60 are respectively communicated with the economizer 30 and the evaporator 40 to form channels through which the refrigerant circulates. It should be noted that the condenser 10, the throttling device 60 and the economizer 30, the throttling device 60 and the evaporator 40 of the present embodiment are communicated, so that the compressor 50 can cool or heat the external air according to the use requirement when operating, and the conversion of the refrigerant among the economizer 30, the evaporator 40, the compressor 50 and the condenser 10, between the condenser 10 and the economizer 30, and between the economizer 30 and the evaporator 40 and the form thereof into the prior art is not described herein.
In the present embodiment, the cooling system of the present embodiment further includes an inlet pipe 101, a first outlet pipe 102, and a second outlet pipe 103.
The condenser 10 is connected and communicated with the frequency converter 20 through an inlet pipeline 101, and the inlet pipeline 101 is provided with a flow regulating valve for controlling the flow of a refrigerant flowing from the bottom of the condenser 10 to the frequency converter 20 on the inlet pipeline 101; the frequency converter 20 is connected and communicated with the economizer 30 through a first outlet pipeline 102, and a first flow control valve 201 is arranged on the first outlet pipeline 102 and used for controlling the opening and closing of a return air passage which flows from the frequency converter 20 to the economizer 30 on the first outlet pipeline 102; the inverter 20 is connected and communicated with the evaporator 40 by a second outlet pipe 103, and a second flow control valve 202 is provided on the second outlet pipe 103 for controlling the opening/closing of a return air passage from the inverter 20 to the evaporator 40 on the second outlet pipe 103. That is, in the cooling system of the present embodiment, the inverter 20 can selectively return air to the economizer 30 or the evaporator 40 according to the pressure, thereby ensuring the cooling effect when the cooling system is operated. It should be noted that the first flow control valve 201 and the second flow control valve 202 are in an open-close working state, so as to ensure that the refrigerant on the inverter 20 in the cooling system can return air, and the first flow control valve 201 and/or the second flow control valve 202 may be specifically an electric regulating valve, an electronic expansion valve, a thermal expansion valve, an electromagnetic valve, and the like, and can close the corresponding first outlet pipe 102 and the corresponding second outlet pipe 103.
In the present embodiment, the inlet pipeline 101 is communicated with the capillary pipeline 104, and the refrigerant in the inlet pipeline 101 can be communicated with the frequency converter 20 through the capillary pipeline 104, so as to ensure that a small amount of liquid refrigerant in the inlet pipeline 101 cools the frequency converter 20 all the time when the cooling system operates, and further prevent the temperature of the frequency converter 20 from greatly fluctuating in the process of adjusting the refrigerant flow flowing from the condenser 10 to the frequency converter 20 by the flow adjusting valve of the cooling system. It should be noted that the pipe diameter of the capillary line 104 is smaller than the pipe diameter of the inlet line 101, so that the inlet line 101 can always flow a small amount of refrigerant to the frequency converter 20 through the capillary line 104.
As can be seen from the above, the flow regulating valve is applied to the inlet pipeline 101 for regulating the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing to the frequency converter 20, so as to control the temperature of the frequency converter 20 during operation, so that the frequency converter 20 always operates within the temperature reference range of the frequency converter 20, thereby performing the anti-condensation function on the frequency converter 20, and further prolonging the service life of the frequency converter 20.
Specifically, the number of the flow rate adjustment valves of the present embodiment is two, and is defined as a first flow rate adjustment valve 203 and a second flow rate adjustment valve 204, respectively, wherein one of the connection nodes between the inlet line 101 and the capillary line 104 is provided at a position between the first flow rate adjustment valve 203 and the second flow rate adjustment valve 204. The cooling system uses two flow regulating valves to regulate the refrigerant flowing from the inlet pipeline 101 to the frequency converter 20, and when the cooling system is used, the flow opening degree of the first flow regulating valve 203 adjacent to one side of the frequency converter 20 can be regulated first, and when the flow opening degree regulated by the first flow regulating valve 203 cannot meet the requirement of regulating the temperature of the frequency converter 20, the flow opening degree of the second flow regulating valve 204 is regulated. It should be noted that, one of the connection nodes of the inlet pipeline 101 and the capillary pipeline 104 specifically refers to a position where the refrigerant in the inlet pipeline 101 flows to the capillary pipeline 104, and the other connection node of the capillary pipeline 104 is specifically disposed on the inlet pipeline 101, and the first flow rate adjusting valve 203 is located between the two connection nodes of the capillary pipeline 104, but it is also possible that the other connection node of the capillary pipeline 104 is also located at a position where the frequency converter 20 is located, that is, one end of the capillary pipeline 104 is connected and communicated with the inlet pipeline 101, and the other end is connected and communicated with the frequency converter 20. It should be noted that the first flow regulating valve 203 and/or the second flow regulating valve 204 may be specifically an electric regulating valve, an electronic expansion valve, a thermal expansion valve, an electromagnetic valve, etc., wherein the first flow regulating valve 203 can be used for regulating or closing the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant on the inlet line 101, and the second flow regulating valve 204 is used for regulating or closing the amount of the refrigerant extracted from the condenser 10 by the inlet line 101.
As a preferable aspect of the present invention, in the cooling system of the present embodiment, the inlet pipeline 101, the first outlet pipeline 102, and the second outlet pipeline 103 are respectively provided with a flow stop valve 205, and the flow stop valve 205 may be specifically a valve having a shut-off function, such as a ball valve or a gate valve, for closing the inlet pipeline 101, the first outlet pipeline 102, and the second outlet pipeline 103, respectively, so as to facilitate the inspection or maintenance of the parts on the inlet pipeline 101, the first outlet pipeline 102, and the second outlet pipeline 103. That is, the flow shutoff valves 205 in the inlet line 101, the first outlet line 102, and the second outlet line 103 according to the present embodiment are normally open, and when inspection or maintenance is required, the corresponding lines are closed by the flow shutoff valves 205. It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, a part of the pipe section can be shared between the first outlet pipeline 102 and the second outlet pipeline 103, so that the three flow shutoff valves 105 can be used to close the first outlet pipeline 102 and the second outlet pipeline 103.
Specifically, the number of the flow cut-off valves 205 on each line is two, and two flow cut-off valves 205 are divided on both outer sides of the corresponding inlet line 101, the corresponding first outlet line 102, or the corresponding second outlet line 103. When the cooling system overhauls or maintains the inlet pipeline 101, the first outlet pipeline 102 and the second outlet pipeline 103, the corresponding two flow stop valves 205 can be closed. In the present embodiment, the two flow stop valves 205 are provided on both outer sides of the inlet pipe 101, the first outlet pipe 102, or the second outlet pipe 103, and specifically, the two flow stop valves 205 are provided on both sides of the corresponding flow control valves, the first flow control valve 201, and the second flow control valve 202, on the inlet pipe 101, the first outlet pipe 102, and the second outlet pipe 103.
In the present embodiment, the inverter 20 is provided with the temperature sensor 301 for detecting the temperature of the inverter 20 during operation in real time, and the cooling system can control the flow opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve using the comparison result between the temperature value measured by the temperature sensor 301 and the temperature reference range of the inverter 20 as control information. That is, in the present embodiment, the adjustment of the flow opening degree of the first flow rate adjustment valve 203 and the second flow rate adjustment valve 204 can be determined based on the real-time comparison result between the temperature value measured by the temperature sensor 301 and the temperature reference range of the inverter 20.
Specifically, the temperature reference range of the frequency converter 20 of the present embodiment is 20 ° to 60 °, that is, the temperature of the frequency converter 20 during operation cannot be lower than 20 ° and cannot be higher than 60 °, and the flow opening of the first flow regulating valve 203 is adjusted as required, and then the flow opening of the second flow regulating valve 204 is adjusted as required, so that the temperature value of the frequency converter 20 during operation measured by the temperature sensor 301 is always between 20 ° and 60 °. Of course, it should be noted that the temperature reference range of the frequency converter 20 can be specifically adjusted according to the operating conditions applied to the cooling system, and will not be described herein.
In the cooling system of the present embodiment, the condenser 10, the economizer 30, and the evaporator 40 are provided with the pressure sensors 302, respectively, and the cooling system can control opening and closing of the first outlet line 102 and the second outlet line 103 using the differential pressure between the evaporator 40 and the condenser 10 and the differential pressure between the evaporator 40 and the economizer 30 as control signals.
For convenience of description, it is defined that the condensing pressure of the condenser 10 on the cooling system of the present embodiment is Pc, the intermediate pressure of the economizer 30 is Pm, the evaporating pressure of the evaporator 40 is Pe, and the pressure difference between the evaporator 40 and the condenser 10 needs to satisfy the condition of Pe +200kPa < Pc, and the pressure difference between the evaporator 40 and the economizer 30 needs to satisfy the condition of Pe +100kPa < Pm. Of course, it should be noted that the pressure difference condition among the evaporator 40, the condenser 10 and the economizer 30 can be specifically adjusted according to the operating conditions of the cooling system, and will not be described herein.
It is understood that, when the pressure difference among the evaporator 40, the condenser 10 and the economizer 30 in the cooling system of the present embodiment satisfies the above condition, the cooling system is in a high pressure ratio operation state, and the inverter 20 returns to the economizer 30 through the first outlet line 102; on the contrary, when the pressure difference among the evaporator 40, the condenser 10 and the economizer 30 does not satisfy one of the above conditions, the cooling system is in a low pressure ratio operation state, and the inverter 20 returns to the evaporator 40 through the second outlet line 103. That is, the cooling system of the present embodiment can select the return air from the first outlet line 102 or the second outlet line 103 according to the pressure among the condenser 10, the economizer 30, and the evaporator 40, and further has an effect of ensuring the cooling effect of the cooling system on the inverter 20 when the cooling system is in operation.
The invention also requests to protect a cooling method of the frequency converter, which is applied to the frequency converter cooling system, wherein the cooling method comprises the following steps:
acquiring the temperature of the frequency converter 20, comparing the measured temperature value with the temperature reference range of the frequency converter 20, and controlling the flow opening of the flow regulating valve on the inlet pipeline 101 by taking the temperature value as a control signal;
the pressures of the condenser 10, the economizer 30 and the evaporator 40 are obtained, and the measured pressure values are used for comparing the pressure differences between the evaporator 40 and the condenser 10 and between the evaporator 40 and the economizer 30, and the pressure differences are used as control signals to control the opening and closing of the first outlet pipeline 102 and the second outlet pipeline 103.
Wherein, in the step of controlling the opening and closing of the first outlet pipeline 102 and the second outlet pipeline 103:
judging a relationship between a pressure difference between the evaporator 40 and the condenser 10 and a first reference pressure value, and a relationship between a pressure difference between the evaporator 40 and the economizer 30 and a second reference pressure value;
if the pressure difference between the evaporator 40 and the condenser 10 is greater than a first reference pressure value and the pressure difference between the evaporator 40 and the economizer 30 is greater than a second reference pressure value, controlling the first outlet pipeline 102 to be opened and the second outlet pipeline 103 to be closed;
otherwise, the first outlet pipeline 102 is controlled to be closed, and the second outlet pipeline 103 is controlled to be opened.
From the above, in the cooling method of the present embodiment, the first reference pressure value is 200kPa, and the second reference pressure value is 100kPa. Of course, it should be noted that the first reference pressure value and the second reference pressure value are not limited to those shown above, and those skilled in the art may modify the pressure values according to different working conditions.
Further, in the cooling method of the present embodiment, in the step of controlling the flow opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve on the inlet pipeline 101, when the inlet pipeline 101 is in the fully open state, the relationship between the temperature value measured by the frequency converter 20 and the temperature reference range of the frequency converter 20 is determined; if the value is larger than the preset value, the frequency converter 20 controls the compressor 50 to stop and give an alarm. That is, when the temperature value measured by the temperature sensor 301 cannot fall to the temperature reference range of the inverter 20, the inverter 20 controls the compressor 50 to stop and alarm, thereby preventing the inverter 20 from working under load. It should be noted that, when the inlet pipe 101 is in a fully open state, specifically, when the flow opening degrees of the first flow rate adjustment valve 203 and the second flow rate adjustment valve 204 are adjusted to the maximum, the refrigerant in the inlet pipe 101 flows.
