Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 1, fig. 5 and fig. 6, a control method of a gas hot water system includes that a gas hot water system 100 includes a water heater 110, a hot water pipe 130, a water inlet pipe 120 and a cold water pipe 150 communicated with the water inlet pipe 120, the water inlet pipe 120 and the hot water pipe 130 are respectively communicated with a water inlet end and a water outlet end of the water heater 110; a connecting pipe 160 is communicated between the hot water pipe 130 and the cold water pipe 150; and/or a water return pipe 140 is communicated between the hot water pipe 130 and the water inlet pipe 120; so as to form a circulating water path, and the control method of the gas hot water system comprises the following steps:
s100, acquiring the temperature of inlet water in the water inlet pipe 120;
s200, if the temperature of inlet water is less than or equal to a first preset temperature, controlling the water heater 110 to ignite, preheating water in the circulating water path to a second preset temperature, and stopping preheating;
s300, if the water inlet temperature is higher than a first preset temperature, controlling the water heater 110 to ignite to preheat water in a circulating water path according to the pre-stored energy-saving circulating total water quantity Qe, and stopping preheating when the circulating water quantity in the circulating water path reaches the energy-saving circulating total water quantity Qe; the energy-saving cycle total water quantity Qe is equal to the total preheating water quantity Q0 multiplied by a correction coefficient, the total preheating water quantity Q0 is the total water quantity required when the water inlet temperature of the first preset temperature is preheated to the second preset temperature, and the correction coefficient is smaller than 100%.
In the control method of the gas water heating system, the inlet water temperature in the inlet pipe 120 is obtained in the preheating process; and comparing the acquired inlet water temperature with a first preset temperature. And if the temperature of the inlet water is lower than the first preset temperature, controlling the water heater 110 to ignite to preheat the water in the circulating water channel. At this time, the preheating is stopped when the water inlet temperature reaches the second preset temperature, based on the water inlet temperature. Since the inlet pipe 120 and the cold water pipe 150 and/or the return pipe 140 are heated simultaneously, when a user takes a bath, the water entering the water heater 110 before and during the ignition process is preheated, so that the cold water entering the water heater 110 at the initial stage of the bath (for example, water in section AB before the water inlet end of the heat exchanger 111 in fig. 5) is very little, which is beneficial to reducing the temperature drop amplitude of the bath water. And if the inlet water temperature is higher than the first preset temperature (which indicates that the inlet water temperature is higher and the influence of cold water entering the water heater 110 on bath water is less), controlling the ignition of the water heater 110 to preheat. At this time, the preheating is stopped when the amount of water circulating in the circulation water passage reaches the energy-saving circulation total water amount Qe, based on the energy-saving circulation total water amount Qe. Because the energy-saving circulating total water quantity Qe is equal to the sum of the preheating total water quantity Q0 and the correction coefficient, and the correction coefficient is less than 100 percent, the preheating circulating water quantity is effectively reduced, the preheating part of the cold water pipe 150 or the water return pipe 140 is reduced, the energy is saved, and the aim of effectively saving energy and preheating is fulfilled. Therefore, the control method of the gas hot water system utilizes the judgment between the water inlet temperature and the first preset temperature to carry out classified preheating on the water in the circulating water path, thereby reducing the preheating circulating water quantity and saving energy; but also can reduce the temperature drop amplitude of bath water and improve the bath comfort.
The control method of the gas water heating system according to the present embodiment may be applied to the gas water heating system 100 having the return pipe 140, or may be applied to the gas water heating system 100 not having the return pipe 140. When the gas water heating system 100 does not have the water return pipe 140, a connection pipe 160 may be communicated between the hot water pipe 130 and the cold water pipe 150, so that a circulation waterway is formed in the gas water heating system 100. Such as: the circulating water path may be formed between the water inlet pipe 120, the heat exchanger 111, the hot water pipe 130, the water return pipe 140 and the water inlet pipe 120, or may be formed by the water inlet pipe 120, the heat exchanger 111, the hot water pipe 130, the connecting pipe 160, the cold water pipe 150 and the water inlet pipe 120, etc.; of course, the circulating waterway may include both of the above-mentioned waterways.
It should be noted that the correction factor is less than 100%, that is, the total energy-saving circulating water amount Qe is less than the total preheating water amount Q0, so that the preheating circulating water amount of the cold water pipe 150 or the water return pipe 140 is reduced, which can effectively reduce the heat loss in the cold water pipe 150 or the water return pipe 140, so that the preheating part is mainly concentrated in the hot water pipe 130, and the preheating efficiency is improved. The value of the correction factor can be determined according to the ratio between the lengths of the combined hot and cold water pipes 130. Such as: the correction factor can be, but is not limited to, 60% -80%; and may be 65% to 75% or the like.
Specifically, the correction coefficient was 70%.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the method further includes, before:
s400, acquiring the temperature of inlet water in the water inlet pipe 120;
s500, when the water inlet temperature is higher than a first preset temperature, controlling the water heater 110 to ignite, preheating water in the circulating water path, and starting timing;
s600, when the water in the circulating water path is preheated to a second preheating temperature, acquiring the total preheating time T0 of the water heater 110 and the average water flow q in the circulating water path v
S700, according to the formula Qe = T0 × q v And xAA, calculating the total water quantity Qe of the energy-saving cycle, and pre-storing the total water quantity Qe in the water heater 110 as an operation parameter in the subsequent preheating process, wherein A is a correction coefficient.
Therefore, the process of obtaining the total water quantity Qe of the energy-saving cycle is performed based on the inlet water temperature being higher than the first preset temperature. When the temperature of the inlet water is higher than the first preset temperature, the water heater 110 is controlled to ignite, the circulating water path is preheated, and timing is started. Taking the preheating temperature as a standard, when the temperature of the inlet water reaches the second preheating temperature, it indicates that the water in the inlet pipe 120, the cold water pipe 150 or the return water pipe 140 is preheated, and the obtained time is the total preheating time T0. Therefore, the total preheating water quantity Q0 can be calculated, and the embodiment corrects the total preheating water quantity Q0, so as to reduce the preheating circulating water quantity of the cold water pipe 150 or the water return pipe 140, ensure that the preheating time is concentrated in the hot water pipe 130, and greatly improve the utilization rate of energy.
It should be noted that the pre-stored data of the total water amount Qe of the energy saving cycle may be stored when the water heater 110 is operated for the first time (for example, data obtained by an installer operating program when the water heater 110 is installed); or can be completed in the last preheating process of the water heater 110 before the bath; alternatively, the water heater 110 is operated periodically according to a built-in program during standby, and the data of the total energy-saving circulation water amount Qe is updated and replaced. Meanwhile, the data of the total water quantity Qe of the energy-saving cycle is acquired based on the fact that the temperature of the inlet water is higher than the first preset temperature, so that the preheating of the cold water pipe 150 or the water return pipe 140 can be reduced as much as possible during energy-saving preheating, and the fuel gas is further saved.
In addition, the subsequent preheating process in the present embodiment is understood as: and obtaining the preheating process of any time after the operation of the energy-saving cycle total water quantity Qe.
Further, please refer to fig. 4, S600, obtaining the average water flow q in the circulation water path v Comprises the following steps:
s610, when the water in the circulating water path starts to be preheated, acquiring the real-time water flow in the circulating water path once every preset time, and recording the real-time water flow as q n Wherein n is a positive integer;
s620, when the water in the circulating water path is preheated to a second preheating temperature, according to a formula q v =(q 1 +q 2 +……q n ) Acquiring the average water flow q in the circulating water path v . Thus, the present embodiment adopts an averaging method, so that the obtained average water flow q is obtained v The data is more accurate, thereby ensuring the amount of preheating circulation water required for preheating and effectively reducing the preheating part in the cold water pipe 150 or the return water pipe 140. In an embodiment, referring to fig. 3, after the step of obtaining the temperature of the inlet water in the inlet pipe 120 in S100, the method further includes:
s110, judging whether the water heater 110 meets a circulating preheating condition;
and S120, when the water heater 110 meets the circulating preheating condition, executing a comparison step of the inlet water temperature and a first preset temperature. Therefore, the present embodiment adds the execution condition before the comparison between the inlet water temperature and the first preset temperature is executed. Only when the water heater 110 satisfies the circulation preheating condition, the water heater 110 performs the subsequent ordinary preheating and energy-saving preheating processes.
Further, referring to fig. 3, the method further includes: and S130, when the water heater 110 does not meet the circulating preheating condition, controlling the water heater 110 to be in a standby state, and judging to obtain common preheating and energy-saving preheating is not needed.
It should be noted that the circulation preheating condition may be any one of an all-weather mode, a reservation service mode, a jog mode, and a single circulation mode; of course, the cyclic preheat condition may be other modes of operation. The all-weather mode is a mode in which the temperature sensor monitors the temperature of water in the water heater 110 all day long, and the operation is started when the temperature is lowered and stopped when the temperature is reached, that is, the set time corresponding to the reservation service mode is 0h to 24h. The subscription service mode should be understood as that the user sets a cycle preheating time in advance, for example, 6 to 8 pm, during which the water heater 110 automatically operates to preheat. The inching mode is a mode in which a user activates a button or a valve or the like as required to drive the water heater 110 to run a preheating program, such as: in the water control mode, a user can start and stop the switch on the water mixing valve once to trigger the water heater 110 to run a preheating program. And single circulation mode is when needing to preheat, and the single circulation button on remote controller or cell-phone APP etc. is clicked to press, and water heater 110 opens the circulation and preheats, stops preheating after the temperature reaches the temperature that sets up.
In an embodiment, referring to fig. 3, before the step of obtaining the temperature of the inlet water in the inlet pipe 120 in S100, the method further includes: s800, starting a display in the water heater 110, and selecting a preheating function in the display, so that a user can conveniently select the preheating function.
In one embodiment, the first predetermined temperature is 12 ℃ to 18 ℃. In the present embodiment, the first preheating temperature is 15 ℃. In addition, the second preset temperature can be determined according to the actual requirement of the user on the hot water temperature, for example, the second preset temperature is set to be 30-70 ℃; of course, the temperature may be set to 40 ℃ to 60 ℃.

The water inlet pipe 120 and the hot water pipe 130 are respectively and correspondingly communicated with the water inlet end of the water heater 110 and the water outlet end of the water heater 110. The cold water pipe 150 is connected to the water inlet pipe 120. A connecting pipe 160 is communicated between the hot water pipe 130 and the cold water pipe 150; and/or, a return pipe 140 is communicated between the hot water pipe 130 and the water inlet pipe 120 to form a circulation water path.

And if the temperature of the inlet water is lower than the first preset temperature, controlling the water heater 110 to ignite to preheat the water in the circulating water channel. At this time, the preheating is stopped when the water inlet temperature reaches the second preset temperature, based on the water inlet temperature. Because the water inlet pipe 120, the cold water pipe 150 and/or the water return pipe 140 are heated at the same time, when a user bathes, water entering the water heater 110 before and during ignition is preheated, so that little cold water enters the water heater 110 at the initial stage of bathing, and the temperature drop amplitude of bathing water is reduced. And if the inlet water temperature is higher than the first preset temperature, controlling the ignition of the water heater 110 to preheat. At this time, the preheating is stopped when the preheating time of the water heater 110 reaches the energy-saving preheating time Te based on the energy-saving preheating time Te. Because the energy-saving preheating time Te is equal to the total preheating time T0 multiplied by the correction coefficient, and the correction coefficient is less than 100%, the preheating time is effectively reduced, the preheating part of the cold water pipe 150 or the water return pipe 140 is reduced, the energy is saved, and the aim of effectively saving energy and preheating is fulfilled. Therefore, the control method of the gas hot water system utilizes the judgment between the water inlet temperature and the first preset temperature to carry out classified preheating on the water in the circulating water path, thereby not only reducing the preheating time and saving the energy; but also can reduce the temperature drop amplitude of bath water and improve the bath comfort.
Specifically, referring to fig. 5, the water heater 110 is provided with a water inlet nozzle 115 and a water outlet nozzle 116, the water inlet nozzle 115 is communicated with the water inlet end of the heat exchanger 111, and the water outlet nozzle 116 is communicated with the water outlet end of the heat exchanger 111. The water inlet pipe 120 is connected to the water inlet nozzle 115. The hot water pipe 130 is connected to the water outlet nozzle 116.
It should be noted that the circulating water path may be formed between the water inlet pipe 120, the heat exchanger 111, the hot water pipe 130, the water return pipe 140 and the water inlet pipe 120, or may be formed by the water inlet pipe 120, the heat exchanger 111, the hot water pipe 130, the connecting pipe 160, the cold water pipe 150 and the water inlet pipe 120, etc.; of course, the circulating water path may include both of the above-mentioned water paths.
Further, referring to fig. 5, the water heater 110 includes a heat exchanger 111, a burner, and a first temperature sensor 112. The inlet pipe 120 and the hot water pipe 130 are respectively communicated with opposite ends of the heat exchanger 111. The first temperature sensor 112 is used for detecting the temperature of the inlet water between the inlet pipe 120 and the heat exchanger 111. The burner is used to provide heat to the heat exchanger 111. In this way, the temperature of the inlet water in the inlet pipe 120 can be obtained in real time through the first temperature sensor 112, so that the water heater 110 can perform normal preheating or energy-saving preheating correspondingly.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the gas-fired hot water system 100 further includes a water consumption point 170. The hot water end 171 of the water consumption point 170 communicates with the hot water pipe 130. The cold water end 172 of the water consumption point 170 is in communication with the cold water pipe 150. The connection pipe 160 communicates between a hot water end 171 of the water usage point 170 and a cold water end 172 of the water usage point 170. In this manner, the connection pipe 160 is connected between the hot water end 171 of the water consumption point 170 and the cold water end 172 of the water consumption point 170, so that the water flow can completely go through the hot water pipe 130 and the cold water pipe 150, so as to sufficiently preheat the hot water pipe 130 and the cold water pipe 150.
Further, referring to fig. 5, the number of the water consumption points 170 is two or more, and the two or more water consumption points 170 are connected in parallel between the hot water pipe 130 and the cold water pipe 150.
It should be noted that when the gas-fired hot water system 100 employs the non-return pipe 140, the connection pipe 160 may communicate between the hot water end 171 and the cold water end 172 of any water usage point 170. However, the connection pipe 160 is connected between the hot water end 171 and the cold water end 172 which are farthest from the water consumption point 170 of the water heater 110, so that the preheating effect is more excellent. When the gas water heating system 100 adopts the water return pipe 140, one end of the water return pipe 140 can be connected to the hot water end 171 of the water consumption point 170 farthest from the water heater 110, and the other end has two connection modes. Referring to fig. 5, when the water heater 110 is provided with a water return nozzle 117 communicated with the water inlet end of the heat exchanger 111, the other end of the water return pipe 140 is communicated with the water return nozzle 117. Referring to fig. 6, when the water heater 110 is not provided with the water return nozzle 117, the water return pipe 140 is directly connected to the water inlet pipe 120 (for example, at the point C of the water inlet pipe 120 in fig. 6). In addition, a first check valve 141 is provided on the return pipe 140 to allow water in the return pipe 140 to flow into the water inlet pipe 120 in a one-way manner. Meanwhile, a second check valve 161 is provided on the connection pipe 160 to make the water in the hot water pipe 130 flow into the cold water pipe 150 in a single direction.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the water heater 110 further includes a second temperature sensor 113, and the second temperature sensor 113 is used for acquiring the temperature of water between the heat exchanger 111 and the hot water pipe 130.
In one embodiment, referring to fig. 5, the water heater 110 further includes a water pump 114, and the water pump 114 is disposed between the water inlet pipe 120 and the heat exchanger 111 to provide power for the water flowing in the water heater 110.
