Referring next to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the specific steps of a preferred embodiment of the antifreeze control method of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, based on the air conditioning unit described in the above embodiment, the antifreeze control method of the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes the steps of:
s101: acquiring outdoor environment temperature and saturated evaporation temperature of a compressor;
s102: judging whether the outdoor environment temperature is smaller than a first preset outdoor environment temperature or whether the saturated evaporation temperature is smaller than a preset evaporation temperature; if yes, step S103 is performed; if not, executing step S101 again;
s103: communicating the first water diversion branch;
s104: obtaining the outlet water temperature of a chilled water circulation loop;
s105: if the water outlet temperature of the chilled water circulation loop is smaller than the first preset water outlet temperature, only heating water in the first diversion branch;
s106: obtaining the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop again;
s107: if the water outlet temperature of the re-acquired chilled water circulation loop is greater than or equal to the second preset water outlet temperature, stopping heating the water in the first water diversion branch;
s108: if the water outlet temperature of the chilled water circulation loop is greater than or equal to the first preset water outlet temperature and less than the second preset water outlet temperature, further acquiring the refrigerant liquid level height in the flooded evaporator;
s109: if the refrigerant liquid level height in the flooded evaporator is greater than or equal to the preset refrigerant liquid level height, heating water in the first water diversion branch and communicating and heating the second water diversion branch;
s110: obtaining the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop and the refrigerant liquid level height in the flooded evaporator again;
s111: if the water outlet temperature of the re-obtained chilled water circulation loop is greater than or equal to the second preset water outlet temperature and the refrigerant liquid level height is smaller than the preset refrigerant liquid level height, stopping heating water in the first water diversion branch and the second water diversion branch and cutting off the second water diversion branch;
s112: acquiring the outdoor environment temperature and the saturated evaporation temperature of the compressor again;
s113: and if the outdoor environment temperature is greater than or equal to the second preset outdoor environment temperature and the saturated evaporation temperature of the compressor is greater than or equal to the preset evaporation temperature, cutting off the first water diversion branch.
Further, in step S101, the controller can obtain the outdoor environment temperature and the saturated evaporation temperature of the compressor 112, so as to determine the possibility of the freezing phenomenon of the flooded evaporator 111 based thereon, and selectively communicate with the first diversion branch 14 according to the outdoor environment temperature and the saturated evaporation temperature of the compressor 112. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited in any way to obtain the outdoor environment temperature and the saturated evaporating temperature of the compressor 112, and those skilled in the art can set the present invention according to the actual use requirements.
Next, in step S102, the controller can determine whether the outdoor environment temperature is less than the first preset outdoor environment temperature or whether the saturated evaporating temperature of the compressor 112 is less than the preset evaporating temperature, so that the freezing prevention process can be performed in time when the freezing risk of the flooded evaporator 111 is likely to occur, so that as long as one of the above two determination conditions is satisfied, it is determined that the freezing risk of the flooded evaporator 111 exists and an anti-freezing measure is correspondingly taken, that is, the first water diversion branch 14 is communicated to raise the water inlet temperature of the flooded evaporator 111, thereby effectively alleviating the freezing phenomenon. It should be noted that, the specific values of the first preset outdoor environment temperature and the preset evaporation temperature are not limited in the invention, and can be set by a person skilled in the art according to actual use requirements; preferably, the first preset outdoor environment temperature is 1 ℃, and the preset evaporation temperature is 4 ℃, so as to effectively improve the accuracy of the judgment result.
Based on the determination result of step S102, if the outdoor environment temperature is less than the first preset outdoor environment temperature or the saturated evaporating temperature of the compressor 112 is less than the preset evaporating temperature, step S103 is performed, i.e. the first water diversion branch 14 is connected, and based on the structural setting in the preferred embodiment, the first electromagnetic valve 141, the second electromagnetic valve 142 and the antifreeze water pump 144 are controlled to be opened so as to introduce the cooling water with higher temperature into the chilled water inlet channel 121, thereby improving the inlet water temperature of the flooded evaporator 111, and thus effectively reducing the freezing risk.
Then, after the first water diversion branch 14 is communicated for a first preset period of time, step S104 is performed, namely, the water outlet temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12, that is, the temperature of water in the chilled water outlet channel 122 is obtained, so as to effectively judge the freezing condition in the flooded evaporator 111, and further selectively heat the water in the first water diversion branch 14 and/or communicate with and heat the second water diversion branch 15 according to the water outlet temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12, so as to reduce the freezing risk to the greatest extent and improve the heat exchange efficiency. It should be noted that, the specific value of the first preset duration is not limited in the present invention, and a person skilled in the art can set the value according to the actual use requirement; preferably, the first preset duration is 30 seconds.
In steps S105 to S107, if the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12 is less than the first preset outlet water temperature, only the water in the first water diversion branch 14 is heated so as to effectively secure a heating effect and a heating speed, thereby maximizing an anti-freezing effect. Then, the controller can acquire the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12 again so as to effectively judge the timing to stop heating. If the water outlet temperature of the re-acquired chilled water circulation loop 12 is greater than or equal to the second preset water outlet temperature, stopping heating the water in the first water diversion branch 14 so as to effectively save the energy consumption of the unit; wherein the second preset outlet water temperature is greater than the first preset outlet water temperature. It should be noted that, the specific values of the first preset water outlet temperature and the second preset water outlet temperature are not limited in the invention, and can be set by a person skilled in the art according to actual use requirements; preferably, the first preset water outlet environmental temperature is 4 ℃, and the second preset water outlet temperature is 9 ℃, so that accuracy of the judging result is effectively improved.
In steps S106 to S111, if the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12 is greater than or equal to the first preset outlet water temperature and less than the second preset outlet water temperature, it is indicated that there is still a certain freezing risk of the flooded evaporator 111, so the controller needs to further obtain the refrigerant level height in the flooded evaporator 111, so as to effectively determine whether the flooded evaporator 111 has a further heat preservation requirement, that is, selectively heat the water in the first water diversion branch 14 and connect and heat the second water diversion branch 15 according to the refrigerant level height in the flooded evaporator 111. Then, if the refrigerant liquid level in the flooded evaporator 111 is greater than or equal to the preset refrigerant liquid level, it is determined that the flooded evaporator 111 has a further heat preservation requirement, in this case, the water in the first water diversion branch 14 is heated, the second water diversion branch 15 is also communicated and heated, that is, the third electromagnetic valve 151 is also opened, a part of the cooling water heated by the heating device 143 is introduced into the heat exchange water cavity of the flooded evaporator 111, and a part of the cooling water is introduced into the heat preservation layer of the flooded evaporator 111, so that the evaporation efficiency of the flooded evaporator 111 can be assisted to be improved while freezing is prevented, and further the heat exchange efficiency of the whole unit is effectively improved. After that, the controller acquires again the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12 and the refrigerant level height in the flooded evaporator 111; if the obtained water outlet temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12 is greater than or equal to the second preset water outlet temperature and the refrigerant liquid level height in the flooded evaporator 111 is less than the preset refrigerant liquid level height, heating of the water in the first water diversion branch 14 and the second water diversion branch 15 is stopped and the second water diversion branch 15 is cut off, and the heating device 143 and the third electromagnetic valve 151 are closed correspondingly. It should be noted that, the specific value of the preset refrigerant liquid level height is not limited in the invention, and the present invention can be set by the person skilled in the art according to the actual use requirement; preferably, the preset refrigerant liquid level is 50mm, so that accuracy of the judging result is effectively improved. It is further preferred that step S112 is performed after the second preset time period is ended in step S111, that is, the heating device 143 and the third solenoid valve 151 are closed for the second preset time period, and then the outdoor ambient temperature and the saturated evaporating temperature of the compressor 112 are obtained again, so as to effectively improve the judging efficiency, and the second preset time period is preferably set to 30 seconds, so that the judging timeliness can be ensured while the judging efficiency is ensured.
Further, based on the result of the step S104, if the outlet water temperature of the chilled water circulation loop 12 is greater than or equal to the second preset outlet water temperature, the step S112 is directly performed to determine the timing of cutting off the first water diversion branch 14.
Further, in step S112, the controller can acquire the outdoor ambient temperature and the saturated evaporation temperature of the compressor 112 again, so as to determine the cut-off timing of the first water diversion branch 14 according to the acquired outdoor ambient temperature and the saturated evaporation temperature of the compressor 112 again. In step S113, if the outdoor ambient temperature is greater than or equal to the second preset outdoor ambient temperature and the saturated evaporating temperature of the compressor 112 is greater than or equal to the preset evaporating temperature, the first water diversion branch 14 is cut off; wherein the second preset outdoor ambient temperature is greater than the first preset outdoor ambient temperature. It should be noted that, the specific value of the second preset outdoor environment temperature is not limited in the present invention, as long as the second preset outdoor environment temperature is set to be greater than the first preset outdoor environment temperature, and a person skilled in the art can set the second preset outdoor environment temperature according to the actual use requirement; the second preset outdoor environment temperature is preferably 3 ℃, so that accuracy of the judging result is effectively improved.
