Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.
In order to make the technical solution of the present application easier to understand, the structure and operation principle of the related refrigeration equipment to which the control method of the present application can be applied will be briefly described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, first, the control method of the present application may be applied to a "one-driving-one (single evaporation branch)" refrigeration device, and may also be applied to a "one-driving-multiple (multiple evaporation branches)" refrigeration device, however, since the difference between the one-driving-one refrigeration device and the one-driving-multiple refrigeration device is mainly the difference in the number of evaporation branches, when explaining the structure of the refrigeration device, only the "one-driving-multiple" refrigeration device is taken as an example for explanation.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a "one-drive-many" showcase apparatus to which the control method of the present application can be applied, and fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a refrigeration circuit (i.e., an evaporation branch) inside each of the showcases in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 1, the apparatus comprises a condensing unit and three showcases (i.e., showcase 1, showcase 2, and showcase 3) connected in parallel, wherein the condensing unit includes a compressor, a condenser, and the like (not shown in the drawings) for generating a low-temperature liquid refrigerant, and the low-temperature liquid refrigerant is introduced into the three showcases through liquid supply pipes, respectively; as shown in fig. 2, a refrigeration loop (i.e. an evaporation branch) of the showcase mainly includes an electromagnetic valve, a filter, an electronic expansion valve and an evaporator connected in sequence, a liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator through the electronic expansion valve to be changed into a gaseous refrigerant after heat exchange, and then returns to a condensing unit through an air return pipe, thereby implementing a refrigeration cycle. In addition, a cabinet inner temperature sensing bulb is arranged in the display cabinet and used for collecting real-time temperature in the cabinet, so that adjustment of system parameters can be realized through the relative relation between the real-time temperature and the target refrigerating temperature set by a user.
In the refrigeration process, the flow of the refrigerant entering the evaporator can be adjusted by adjusting the opening value of the electronic expansion valve, so that the refrigerating capacity and the refrigerating efficiency are adjusted. The opening degree value adjusting principle of the electronic expansion valve is as follows: the target superheat degree Delta T of the evaporator is pre-determined according to factors such as refrigeration load and the like Target Setting, and respectively setting an inlet temperature sensing bag and an outlet temperature sensing bag at an inlet and an outlet of the evaporator, wherein the inlet temperature sensing bag and the outlet temperature sensing bag of the evaporator are respectively used for acquiring an inlet temperature value Tin (DEG C) and an outlet temperature value Tout (DEG C) of the evaporator so as to calculate the current superheat degree delta T (DEG C) of the evaporator, wherein the delta T is Tout-Tin; the system can then obtain the target superheat degree delta T according to the current superheat degree delta T Target The opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted according to the relative relation.
In addition, the refrigerating capacity and the refrigerating efficiency of the equipment can be adjusted by adjusting the frequency of the compressor, and the adjustment of the frequency of the compressor can also be based on the current superheat degree delta T and the target superheat degree delta T of the evaporator Target The relative relationship of (a) to (b) is implemented.
In the traditional scheme, the current superheat degree delta T and the target superheat degree delta T of the evaporator are used as the basis Target The relative relationship between the frequency of the compressor and the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is independently adjusted. However, the inventors have found, after investigation, that Δ T and Δ T when one of the compressor frequency and the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted Target However, in the conventional scheme, the other one is not fully considered in the process of adjusting the other one, so that a phenomenon of hysteresis or overshoot occurs, and in order to cope with the hysteresis or overshoot, the system parameters need to be continuously adjusted in a fine manner, so that the whole system cannot be rapidly in a stable optimal operation state due to oscillation, and energy consumption loss is caused.
In order to solve the problems, the application provides a control method, a control device, a controller and refrigeration equipment of the refrigeration equipment, aiming at the refrigeration equipment, the cooperative control of electronic expansion valve adjustment and compressor frequency conversion is realized, so that the refrigeration requirement of a system is fully met, the operation efficiency of the refrigeration equipment is improved, the operation stability of the refrigeration equipment is enhanced, and the energy waste is reduced. The details of the embodiment are described below by way of examples.
Examples
Referring to fig. 3-4, fig. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a control method of a refrigeration apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application, and fig. 4 is a control process diagram illustrating the method of fig. 3 applied to the showcase apparatus of fig. 1. As shown in fig. 3, the method comprises at least the following steps:
s101: acquiring a current opening value of the electronic expansion valve;
in practical application, after the superheat degree of the evaporator is obtained, the superheat degree signal can be converted into an opening degree signal of the electronic expansion valve through a converter such as a fuzzy controller, and then the current opening degree value of the electronic expansion valve is obtained.
S102: determining the target frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve according to the pre-established corresponding relation between the frequency of the compressor and the opening value of the electronic expansion valve;
specifically, in practical applications, when the system is in stable operation, a certain correspondence exists between the frequency of the compressor and the opening degree value of the electronic expansion valve, so that the specific condition of the correspondence can be predetermined, and the frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening degree value of the electronic expansion valve can be further determined based on the correspondence.
For example, in practical applications, the frequency of the compressor and the refrigerant flow rate have a corresponding relationship, and the opening degree value of the electronic expansion valve and the refrigerant flow rate have another corresponding relationship. Furthermore, the corresponding compressor frequency can be determined according to the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve.
S103: and controlling the compressor to run at the target frequency.
The target frequency of the compressor calculated by the previous steps is matched with the current load required by the storage equipment (namely, the load, such as a display cabinet), and the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve and the frequency of the compressor can be adjusted cooperatively. In addition, if the target refrigeration temperature set by the storage equipment changes, the load changes along with the change of the target refrigeration temperature, and the system can realize adjustment with a smaller amplitude by taking the previous adjustment as a reference to meet the current load, so that the system instability caused by frequent adjustment of the system can be effectively eliminated.
In the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application, when refrigeration control is performed on the refrigeration equipment, the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve is obtained; determining the target frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve according to the pre-established corresponding relation between the frequency of the compressor and the opening value of the electronic expansion valve; the compressor is controlled to operate at the target frequency, so that the target frequency corresponding to the compressor can be determined according to the actual opening value of the electronic expansion valve, the operation of the compressor is controlled, the electronic expansion valve can be adjusted and the frequency conversion of the compressor can be cooperatively controlled, the refrigeration requirement can be fully met, the operation efficiency of refrigeration equipment is improved, the operation stability of the refrigeration equipment is enhanced, and the energy waste is reduced.
Further, in some embodiments, when the refrigeration apparatus is a one-to-many type refrigeration apparatus, that is, when the refrigeration apparatus includes a plurality of evaporation branches connected in parallel to each other (the evaporation branches also have a structure similar to the refrigeration circuit shown in fig. 2), and each evaporation branch includes an electronic expansion valve and an evaporator connected to the electronic expansion valve, the step S101, that is, the step of obtaining the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve specifically includes: respectively acquiring the current opening value of each electronic expansion valve; correspondingly, the step S102, namely, the step of determining the target frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve according to the pre-established correspondence between the frequency of the compressor and the opening value of the electronic expansion valve, specifically includes: determining the target frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening values of all the electronic expansion valves according to the pre-established corresponding relation between the frequency of the compressor and the opening values of the electronic expansion valves,
that is, when the control method is applied to a multi-split refrigeration device, the current opening value of each electronic expansion valve can be respectively obtained, and then the target frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening values of all the electronic expansion valves is determined, so that the cooperative control of the opening adjustment of the electronic expansion valves and the frequency adjustment of the compressor is realized.
It should be noted that the refrigeration apparatus shown in fig. 1 includes three evaporation branches (i.e. three display cases), but it should be understood that, in practical applications, the number of the evaporation branches of a multi-split refrigeration apparatus is not only three, but rather, the number thereof may be increased or decreased according to practical situations.
In addition, in some embodiments, before the step S101, that is, before the step of obtaining the current opening value of the electronic expansion valve, the method further includes: acquiring the current superheat degree of an evaporator corresponding to the electronic expansion valve; and adjusting the opening value of the corresponding electronic expansion valve based on the current superheat degree and a preset target superheat degree.
That is, in this embodiment, the current superheat Δ T and the target superheat Δ T of the evaporator may be based on the same as described above Target The opening degree value of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted according to the relative relation of the two parts. If the refrigerating equipment is multi-split refrigerating equipment, different target superheat degrees can be set for different storage equipment in the same refrigerating equipment according to factors such as types, positions and loads of stored articles, and then evaporators of different storage equipment (different evaporation branches) can correspond to different target superheat degrees and current superheat degrees at the same time. Based on this, the opening degree values of different electronic expansion valves may be different at the same time.
Further, as a possible embodiment, the establishing of the correspondence relationship between the frequency of the compressor and the opening degree value of the electronic expansion valve includes:
collecting flow data corresponding to different frequencies of a compressor of the refrigeration equipment under a preset working condition, and fitting according to the flow data corresponding to the different frequencies to obtain a corresponding relation between flow and frequency; under the preset working condition, collecting flow data corresponding to different opening values of the electronic expansion valves of the evaporation branches, and fitting according to the flow data corresponding to the different opening values to obtain a corresponding relation between the flow and the opening values; and establishing a corresponding relation between the frequency of the compressor and the opening value of the electronic expansion valve based on the corresponding relation between the flow and the frequency and the corresponding relation between the flow and the opening value. The preset working condition may be a standard working condition.
That is, a large amount of real data (including data corresponding to frequency and flow, data corresponding to opening and flow, and the two data must be collected under the same working condition) may be collected through a previous experiment, and the corresponding relationship between flow and frequency and the corresponding relationship between flow and opening value are obtained through fitting based on the real data, and then the corresponding relationship between frequency and opening is further obtained.
For example, in some embodiments, the flow rate and the opening of the electronic expansion valve fitted to the collected data is as follows:
Q=A 1 +B 1 N+C 1 N 2 +… (1)
wherein Q is mass flow, N is opening step number of the electronic expansion valve, A 1 、B 1 、C 1 … are all fitting coefficients.
It should be noted that, since the flow curves of different electronic expansion valves are different, the fitting coefficients in the relational expressions between the flow and the opening degree obtained by fitting to different electronic expansion valves are also different, but the fitting principle and the overall trend of the fitting result are the same. Therefore, in practical applications, if different electronic expansion valves are used in different evaporation branches of a multi-split refrigeration device, a relational expression between the flow rate and the opening degree needs to be obtained by fitting for each electronic expansion valve.
In addition, assume that the relationship between the flow rate and the compressor frequency, which is obtained by fitting the collected data, is:
Q=A 2 +B 2 F+… (2)
wherein Q is the mass flow, F is the compressor frequency, A 2 、B 2 … … are all fitting coefficients.
Further, based on the equations (1) and (2), the relational expression between the compressor frequency and the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is obtained with the mass flow rate Q as an intermediate quantity:
Figure BDA0003208137560000101
based on this, in some embodiments, if the method is applied to a multi-split refrigeration device, the determining the target frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening values of all the electronic expansion valves according to the pre-established correspondence relationship between the frequency of the compressor and the opening values of the electronic expansion valves includes: respectively determining the frequency of the compressor corresponding to the current opening value of each electronic expansion valve according to the pre-established corresponding relationship between the frequency of the compressor and the opening value of the electronic expansion valve; and accumulating the frequencies of the compressors corresponding to the current opening values of the electronic expansion valves to obtain the target frequency.
For example, when the unit operates under a certain condition, if the electronic expansion valves of the multiple evaporation branches have the same structure and the opening values are X1, X2, X3, and … …, the required compressor frequency can be obtained according to equation (3):
Figure BDA0003208137560000111
in the formula, F 1 、F 2 、F 3 … …, respectively corresponding to the required compressor frequency for the opening of the electronic expansion valve in each evaporation branch, and accumulating the frequencies (for example, as shown in fig. 4, in practical application, the accumulation can be realized by a signal accumulator) to obtain the final required target frequency F of the compressor Target
F Target =F 1 +F 2 +F 3 +… (5)
Therefore, the compressor frequency matched with the opening value of the electronic expansion valve can be obtained based on the opening value of the electronic expansion valve, namely, the opening value of the electronic expansion valve and the compressor frequency can be cooperatively adjusted through the control process.
In addition, based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present application further provides a control device of a refrigeration apparatus, corresponding to the control method of the refrigeration apparatus provided in the above embodiment.
