A first electronic expansion valve 206 is disposed on a pipe between the first heat exchanger 204 and the evaporator 210, and a second electronic expansion valve 207 is disposed on a pipe between the second heat exchanger 205 and the evaporator 210.
The first temperature sensor 208 is disposed in the first inner container 202 for collecting a first water temperature of the first inner container 202, and the second temperature sensor 209 is disposed in the second inner container 203 for collecting a second water temperature of the second inner container 203.
The first electronic expansion valve 206, the second electronic expansion valve 207, the first temperature sensor 208 and the second temperature sensor 209 are all connected with a controller, and the controller is used for executing the water heater control method provided by any of the foregoing embodiments of the invention.
In particular, a first water temperature T in the first inner container 1 Lower than the lower limit temperature T of domestic water L When the refrigerant is in a gas state, the controller controls the first electronic expansion valve 206 to be opened, the second electronic expansion valve 207 is operated at the lowest opening degree (the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is controlled at the lowest opening degree instead of being completely closed in the heating switching process in order to prevent the refrigerant from migrating to the closed heat exchanger and not participating in the whole system circulation, so that the system operation failure is caused), the high-pressure liquid refrigerant generated by the compression of the compressor 212 is evaporated into a gas state through the evaporator 210, absorbs a large amount of heat energy from the air, then almost all enters the first heat exchanger 204, concentrates the heat source on the first heat exchanger 204, quickly heats the stored water in the first inner container 202, improves the heating efficiency, and reduces the waiting time of users.
At a first water temperature T 1 Greater than or equal to the lower limit temperature T of the domestic water L In time, the first water temperature T is judged 1 And a second water temperature T 2 Whether all are less than the set starting temperature T D . If the first water temperature T 1 And a second water temperature T 2 Are all less than the set starting temperature T D The controller controls the first electronic expansion valve 206 and the second electronic expansion valve 207 to be opened, and simultaneously heats the water in the first inner container 202 and the second inner container 203. If the first water temperature T 1 Greater than or equal to a set starting temperature T D And the second water temperature T 2 Less than a set starting temperature T D The controller controls the second electronic expansion valve 207 to be opened, the first electronic expansion valve 206 is operated at the lowest opening degree, and the heat source is concentrated on the second heat exchangerThe water stored in the second inner container 203 is rapidly heated in the heat device 205, so that the heating efficiency is improved. Meanwhile, after the hot water in the first inner container 202 is used, the hot water in the second inner container 203 is supplemented to the first inner container 202 in time, so that the heating efficiency is improved, and the waiting time of a user is reduced. If the first water temperature T 1 Greater than or equal to a set starting temperature T D And the first water temperature T 1 Is equal to the second water temperature T 2 It is noted that the temperatures of the water in the two liners are high, and the first electronic expansion valve 206 and the second electronic expansion valve 207 are controlled by the controller to operate at the lowest opening degree without heating.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the water heater further comprises a pressure relief switch 213, and the pressure relief switch 213 is disposed on a pipe between an outlet of the compressor 212 and the liquid inlet D of the four-way valve 211. When the pressure in the pipeline is greater than the preset pressure threshold, the pressure relief switch 213 is turned on to relieve the pressure.
In some embodiments of the present invention, both the first heat exchanger 204 and the second heat exchanger 205 are coil heat exchangers. The coil heat exchanger and water have larger heat exchange area, which is beneficial to improving the heating efficiency.
In the embodiment of the present invention, a connecting pipe 221 is connected to a water outlet at the top of the second inner container 203, the connecting pipe 221 extends to the bottom of the first inner container 202, and a hot water outlet is arranged at the top of the first inner container 202. During the use of hot water, the hot water is gradually pushed out from the top of the first inner container 202, and simultaneously, the hot water of the second inner container 203 is supplemented to the bottom of the first inner container 202, and the cold water is supplemented to the bottom of the second inner container 203.
Illustratively, the capacity of the first inner container 202 and the second inner container 203 are both 100L, and the single inner container is 200L. The current water temperature is not used for bathing at 35 ℃, and the water temperature for bathing is 40 ℃. Calculate according to single inner bag 200L, suppose we are 60L according to one person's water consumption of bathing, and unit heating capacity 10KW then need heat 200L water to temperature T can satisfy the water demand. Then there is the following formula:
C×(40℃-35℃)×200L+C×(40℃-15℃)×60L=C×(Ta-15℃)×200L
wherein Cx (40 ℃ -15 ℃) x 60L represents the energy required for heating the supplemented 60L cold water at 15 ℃ to 40 ℃ after 60L hot water is used up. Ta was calculated to be equal to 47.5 ℃.
I.e. the time t1 required for heating 200L of water to 47.5 ℃ is:
t1=C×(47.5℃-35℃)×200L/10KW
t1 was found to be equal to 17.5min.
If the scheme of the invention is adopted, because the water stored in the first inner container is more than 60L, only the water in the first inner container needs to be heated, the capacity is 100L, the water supplementing temperature is not the direct water supplementing of tap water, the second inner container supplements water to the first inner container, and the heating temperature difference is greatly reduced. Assuming that the water temperatures in the first and second inner containers are both 35 ℃, there is the following formula:
c x (40 ℃ -35 ℃) X100L + C x (40 ℃ -35 ℃) X60L = C x (Tb-35 ℃) X100, tb equals 43 ℃.
I.e. equivalent to heating 100L of water to 43 ℃, the time t2 required is:
t2=C×(43℃-35℃)×100L/10KW
t1 was found to be equal to 5.6min.
As described above, the time required for heating is shortened, and the heating efficiency is improved.
