and S22, when the number of the secondary refrigerant heat exchangers is reduced, the pressure of the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger is enabled to exceed a set value, and redundant refrigerants flow back to the storage tank.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
the refrigerant in the invention circularly flows between the two air energy hosts, the supercharger and the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger, and is subjected to vaporization, pressurization, heat exchange and other processes, so that the recycling of the refrigerant can be realized, and the operation cost of a refrigerant circulating system of the central air conditioner is effectively reduced.
In the refrigerating mode, the circulating system can utilize the supercharger to pressurize the refrigerant, then utilizes the first air energy host machine to cool, and then reduces the pressure and adiabatically expands the cooled refrigerant through the first expansion valve, so that the enthalpy change value of the refrigerant during refrigeration is improved to obtain higher energy efficiency ratio, and the refrigerant enters the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger, thereby finally realizing the refrigeration purpose of the secondary refrigerant through the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger.
In the heating mode, the circulating system utilizes the air energy main machine to vaporize the refrigerant output by the storage tank when in use, then the supercharger is utilized to pressurize the refrigerant, then the refrigerant is input into the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger to exchange heat, the refrigerant discharged by the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger firstly enters the air energy main machine without starting the fan by utilizing the first return pipeline or the second return pipeline, so that the ice and frost melting speed on the air energy main machine can be accelerated by utilizing the waste heat of the normal-temperature refrigerant in the liquid circulating and returning process, the defrosting efficiency is improved, then the refrigerant enters the other normally working air energy main machine to be vaporized, the vaporized refrigerant enters the supercharger to be pressurized and enters the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger to exchange heat, and the circulation is completed. Therefore, according to the above description, the indoor unit does not need to be defrosted by using the reverse defrosting operation during use, so that cold air cannot be blown out from the indoor unit during defrosting, specifically, two air energy hosts which are used alternately are utilized, one air energy host heats and heats the other air energy host, and defrosts the other air energy host, so that the indoor temperature can be maintained in a temperature range comfortable for a user, the use experience of the user is improved, and one air energy host in the two air energy hosts can be alternately used after working for several minutes, so that too much frost cannot be condensed by the air energy host in working, the defrosting is facilitated, and the heating effect of the system is also ensured.
Meanwhile, the defrosting system has a good defrosting effect, so that the heating effect of the system can be ensured, and the condition that the indoor temperature can reach the temperature desired by people only by heating for a long time is avoided, so that compared with the prior art, the defrosting system saves a power supply to a certain extent, and ensures the energy efficiency ratio.
In the invention, when the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger is lower than a set value (for example, when the using number of the refrigerating medium heat exchangers is increased) through the matching of the supercharger and the storage tank in the refrigerating or heating process, the storage tank continuously outputs the refrigerant to compensate the pressure, the refrigerant is stopped to be discharged until the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger reaches the set value, and when the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger is higher than the set value (for example, when the using number of the refrigerating medium heat exchangers is reduced), redundant mass of the refrigerant flows into the storage tank by utilizing pressure difference to reduce the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger so as to stop inputting the refrigerant until the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger reaches the set value; if the pressure at the high pressure outlet of the booster is always at the set value, the storage tank does not need to output the refrigerant nor input the refrigerant. Therefore, the invention can adjust the flow of the refrigerant in real time according to the real-time use condition, for example, the flow is used when the use number of the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger is increased or decreased, the change of the mass flow (namely, the increase or decrease of the number of the refrigerant in the flowing process) of the refrigerant can be realized according to different working conditions in the closed operation, the self-adaptive adjustment is realized, and meanwhile, the supercharger can basically keep the high energy efficiency ratio of the control system under the state that the set value of the high-pressure side pressure of the supercharger is not changed, and the purpose of saving electricity is realized.

Through the arrangement, a small amount of liquid-state refrigerant reserved in places such as the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger 5 can be removed by the air energy main machine when the system is just started, the phenomenon that the liquid and gas refrigerants are mixed in the supercharger 2 to damage the supercharger 2 is avoided, and the service life of the supercharger 2 is prolonged.
Preferably, in the cooling mode: step S8, when the number of the secondary refrigerant heat exchangers 5 is increased, and the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger 2 does not reach a set value, the storage tank 1 is opened, the gaseous refrigerant is input into the supercharger 2 for supercharging, then the refrigerant sequentially passes through the first air energy host 3 and the first expansion valve 8 and enters the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger 5, the refrigerant output is stopped until the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger 2 reaches the set value, and redundant refrigerant flows back into the storage tank 1 through the inlet of the storage tank 1;

in the heating mode: step S21, when the number of the secondary refrigerant heat exchangers 5 is increased, the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the booster 2 does not reach a set value, the corresponding second expansion valve 9 or third expansion valve 10 is opened, the refrigerant in the storage tank 1 firstly passes through an air energy host machine (namely an air energy evaporator entering the host machine) without starting a fan, then is conveyed to the air energy host machine with the fan started through the corresponding first return channel 6 or second return channel 7 to be vaporized into gaseous low-temperature refrigerant, the vaporized refrigerant is conveyed to the booster 2 to be used for supplementing the refrigerant, finally the refrigerant enters the secondary refrigerant heat exchanger 5 through the first expansion valve 8 until the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the booster 2 reaches the set value, the refrigerant output is stopped, and the redundant refrigerant flows back into the storage tank 1 through the inlet of the storage tank 1;
and S22, when the number of the refrigerating medium heat exchangers 5 is reduced and the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger 2 is made to exceed a set value, the redundant refrigerating medium flows back to the storage tank 1.
For the above switch use of each control valve, expansion valve and electromagnetic valve, when the corresponding pipeline is needed, the control valve or expansion valve on the pipeline is opened, and the above method partially reflects the use condition of each valve, and no specific details are given here.
In this embodiment, the pressure set value at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger 2 may be set to be 3.5MPa to 18MPa, and the pressure at the high-pressure outlet end of the supercharger 2 is detected by a pressure sensor.
