The dehumidification control method of the heat pump dryer of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 3 based on the heat pump dryer of the corresponding embodiment of fig. 2.
Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart illustrating a dehumidification control method of a heat pump dryer according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and referring to fig. 3, the dehumidification control method of the heat pump dryer may include the following steps 310 to 330.
Step 310: the coil temperature of the heat pump dryer dehumidifier is obtained, and the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is calculated.
Illustratively, as in the heat pump dryer shown in fig. 2, a first temperature sensor 208 is provided on the dehumidification coil of the dehumidifier 204, and the controller 212 may obtain the coil temperature of the dehumidifier 204 via the first temperature sensor 208.
The target temperature may be indicative of a critical temperature at which moisture in the air can be removed, and may be determined based on the dew point temperature, for example, a result of subtracting a preset temperature value from the dew point temperature Ta may be determined as a target temperature Tm, such as tm=ta-5. The dew point temperature refers to the temperature at which the air is cooled to saturation under the condition that the water vapor content in the air is unchanged and the air pressure is kept constant.
By way of example, the dew point temperature Ta may be calculated according to the following equation (1), which may be expressed as:
Wherein,tout represents the return air inlet temperature, RH represents the relative humidity, and can be determined based on the return air inlet humidity, rhout, where a and b are constants, e.g., a=17.27 ℃, b=237.7 ℃.
The dew point temperature Ta may also be calculated based on the return air inlet temperature Tout and the return air inlet humidity Rhout, for example. For example, the dew point temperature Ta may be calculated according to the formula ta=a×rhout+b×tout+c, where A, B and C are both constants, and may be determined according to empirical values, for example, a=0.2 may be taken, b=1, and C may be determined according to the return air inlet temperature Tout, for example, tout > 50 ℃ may take c= -30, and t is less than or equal to 50 ℃ may take c= -27.
The target temperature may also be set by the user, for example.
After the coil temperature and the target temperature are obtained, a temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature may be calculated.
Step 320: and opening the first stop valve in response to the temperature difference being greater than the first temperature difference threshold, and adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the initial designated valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference to adjust the coil temperature.
The first temperature difference threshold may reflect the humidity of air in the heat pump dryer drying chamber to determine whether dehumidification by the dehumidifier is required. The lower the coil temperature, the more moisture in the air it can remove, and based on this, the coil temperature adjustable range can be reflected by the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature. If the temperature difference is greater than the first temperature difference threshold value, which indicates that the drying chamber air still needs to be dehumidified, and the coil temperature still has a reducible range, the first stop valve is kept in an open state, so that the dehumidifier in the dehumidification thermodynamic loop dehumidifies the drying chamber air, and the valve opening of the first expansion valve in the dehumidification thermodynamic loop is controlled based on the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature, so as to adjust the coil temperature, and the dehumidification force is adapted to the humidity of the air in the current drying chamber. Therefore, the heat pump dryer can exert a better dehumidification state, reduce energy consumption and improve drying efficiency.
The initial specified valve opening may be determined based on a temperature difference, for example, when the temperature difference is greater, indicating that the coil temperature needs to be reduced by a greater amount, at which time the valve opening of the first expansion valve may be opened to a maximum, i.e., the initial specified valve opening is determined to be the maximum valve opening of the first expansion valve, and then further refined on the basis thereof; for example, when the temperature difference is smaller, which indicates that the coil temperature is close to the target temperature, the valve opening of the first expansion valve can be finely adjusted to adjust the coil temperature, and then the current valve opening of the first expansion valve can be determined to be the initial designated valve opening, and the valve opening can be further finely adjusted on the basis. Therefore, the efficiency and the accuracy of valve opening adjustment can be improved, and the dehumidification efficiency is improved.
The expansion valve has an allowable valve opening range, for example, 80 to 360 degrees, and when the valve opening of the expansion valve is adjusted, the expansion valve needs to be adjusted within the allowable valve opening range. The valve opening range may also be configured by a user, for example.
Step 330: and repeatedly executing the steps until the temperature difference is smaller than or equal to the first temperature difference threshold value, and closing the first stop valve.
The dehumidification control process of steps 310-320 is repeatedly performed until the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is less than or equal to the first temperature difference threshold, which indicates that the dehumidification purpose has been achieved, at which time the first shut-off valve may be closed to stop dehumidification. At this time, the drying chamber can be with the environment of better humidity to the stoving of being dried thing, has guaranteed stoving quality and efficiency.
In an exemplary embodiment, when the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is less than or equal to the first temperature difference threshold, the second expansion valve 207 may be opened, and the drying thermodynamic loop operates, and the released heat is continuously transferred to the drying chamber, and the drying chamber may dry the object to be dried in a preferable humidity environment.
The dehumidification control method of the heat pump dryer provided by the invention can control the opening and closing of the dehumidification thermodynamic loop by utilizing the temperature difference between the temperature of the coil pipe of the dehumidifier and the target temperature and the magnitude relation between the temperature difference and the first temperature difference threshold, and adjust the valve opening of the first expansion valve in the dehumidification thermodynamic loop based on the temperature difference in the opening state of the dehumidification thermodynamic loop so as to adjust the temperature of the coil pipe, thereby realizing the real-time control of the dehumidification process of the heat pump dryer, determining the currently adapted valve opening according to the current temperature of the coil pipe of the dehumidifier so as to adjust the temperature of the coil pipe, and enabling the heat pump dryer to work in a better dehumidification state, thereby improving the drying efficiency and reducing the energy consumption; in addition, in the dehumidification control process, the initial appointed valve opening of the first expansion valve can be determined according to the temperature difference, and then the valve opening based on the temperature difference is adjusted on the basis, so that the efficiency and the accuracy of valve opening adjustment are improved, the drying efficiency is further improved, and the energy consumption is reduced.
Based on the dehumidification control method of the heat pump dryer according to the corresponding embodiment of fig. 3, the dehumidification control method of the heat pump dryer according to the embodiment of the present invention is further explained below by taking the example that the target temperature is Tm, the coil temperature is Tp, and the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is (Tp-Tm).
In an example embodiment, the interval greater than the first temperature difference threshold may be further subdivided, and different dehumidification control logic is set for each subdivided temperature difference interval, so that the dehumidification process of the heat pump dryer is more refined, and the accuracy of dehumidification control is improved. Illustratively, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the initial specified valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference may include: and under the condition that the temperature difference is larger than the first temperature difference threshold value and smaller than or equal to the second temperature difference threshold value, determining the initial designated valve opening as the minimum valve opening of the first expansion valve, and controlling the valve opening of the first expansion valve to be kept at the initial designated valve opening until the temperature difference is smaller than or equal to the first temperature difference threshold value. The first and second temperature difference thresholds may be negative.
For example, the first temperature difference threshold is-5, the second temperature difference threshold is-3, and if-5 < (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to-3, which indicates that the humidity of the drying chamber is close to the target humidity requirement, the dehumidification purpose can be achieved by using smaller dehumidification force, and longer time is not spent, the valve opening of the first expansion valve can be kept at the minimum valve opening until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to-5. In the case of (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.5, it is indicated that dehumidification is completed, and the first cut-off valve may be closed to stop dehumidification. At this time, the drying chamber can be used for drying the dried object in a better humidity environment, so that the drying quality and efficiency are ensured, and the energy consumption is reduced.
Illustratively, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the initial specified valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference may further include: in the case where the temperature difference is greater than the second temperature difference threshold and less than or equal to the third temperature difference threshold, an initial specified valve opening may be determined based on the temperature difference and the current valve opening of the first expansion valve; then controlling the valve opening of the first expansion valve to be the initial designated valve opening, and acquiring the temperature variation of the temperature of the coil pipe once every first preset time to obtain the first coil pipe temperature variation; and adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the first coil temperature variation until the temperature difference is less than or equal to the second temperature difference threshold.
When determining the initial designated valve opening based on the temperature difference and the current valve opening of the first expansion valve, the interval greater than the second temperature difference threshold and less than or equal to the third temperature difference threshold may be further divided, for example, into an interval greater than the second temperature difference threshold and less than the fourth temperature difference threshold and an interval greater than the fourth temperature difference threshold and less than or equal to the third temperature difference threshold, different initial designated valve openings may be determined for different temperature difference intervals where the temperature difference is located, and different dehumidification control logic may be adopted.
In an example embodiment, for a case where the temperature difference falls within a range greater than the second temperature difference threshold and less than or equal to the fourth temperature difference threshold, determining the initial specified valve opening based on the temperature difference and the current valve opening of the first expansion valve may include: and determining the initial designated valve opening as the current valve opening of the first expansion valve under the condition that the temperature difference is larger than the second temperature difference threshold and smaller than or equal to the fourth temperature difference threshold. Accordingly, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the first coil temperature variation amount may include: reducing the valve opening of the first expansion valve by a third adjustment amplitude in response to the first coil temperature variation being greater than a third variation threshold; and in response to the first coil temperature variation being less than or equal to a fourth variation threshold, increasing the valve opening of the first expansion valve by a fourth adjustment amplitude. The third adjustment amplitude and the fourth adjustment amplitude may be the same or different, and the present invention is not limited in particular. The fourth variation threshold is less than or equal to the third variation threshold.
It may be appreciated that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the values of the third adjustment amplitude, the fourth adjustment amplitude, the third variation threshold and the fourth variation threshold may be set according to actual needs. For example, if the third variation threshold value and the fourth variation threshold value are tx3 and tx4, respectively, tx 3=1 and tx 4=0 may be taken, or tx 3=tx 4=0 may be taken. For example, the third adjustment amplitude and the fourth adjustment amplitude may each take a value of 2.
Based on this, taking the example that the second temperature difference threshold value is-3 and the fourth temperature difference threshold value is 0, if the fact that-3 < (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 0 is determined at first, dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of-3 < (Tp-Tm) is entered. At this time Tp has already begun to approach Tm, the valve opening K of the first expansion valve can be set 1 The current value is used as an initial specified valve opening, and then valve opening adjustment based on the coil temperature variation is performed on the basis of the initial specified valve opening. For example, the first set period may be set as a period, for example, 20 seconds, and the temperature change amount Δt=t1-t 0 of the coil temperature Tp of the dehumidification coil may be determined once every period, where t1 is the coil temperature at the end of the 20 second period, and t0 is the coil temperature at the beginning of the 20 second period; assuming that tx 3=tx 4=0, the third adjustment amplitude and the fourth adjustment amplitude are both 2, then there are: if Deltat > 0, the valve opening of the first expansion valve at this time may be reduced to K 1 =K 1 -2; if Δt is less than or equal to 0, the valve opening of the first expansion valve at this time may be increased to K 1 =K 1 +2. Repeating execution of the valve opening K based on Δt 1 And (3) until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to-3, entering dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of less than or equal to-5 (Tp-Tm) which is less than or equal to-3, and continuing to perform dehumidification control.
In an example embodiment, for a case where the temperature difference falls within a temperature difference interval that is greater than the fourth temperature difference threshold and less than the third temperature difference threshold, determining the initial specified valve opening based on the temperature difference and the current valve opening of the first expansion valve may include: and under the condition that the temperature difference is larger than a fourth temperature difference threshold and smaller than a third temperature difference threshold, determining that the initial designated valve opening is the difference between the current valve opening of the first expansion valve and the preset valve opening, wherein the fourth temperature difference threshold is larger than the second temperature difference threshold. Accordingly, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the first coil temperature variation amount may include: in response to the first coil temperature variation being greater than a first variation threshold, reducing a valve opening of the first expansion valve by a first adjustment magnitude; and increasing the valve opening of the first expansion valve by a second adjustment amplitude in response to the first coil temperature variation being less than or equal to the second variation threshold. Wherein the first adjustment amplitude may be greater than the second adjustment amplitude. The first variable quantity threshold value is larger than the second variable quantity threshold value, so that the temperature variable quantity of the first coil pipe can be stabilized between the first variable quantity threshold value and the second variable quantity threshold value, the heat pump dryer is prevented from being out of control due to larger variable quantity, and the energy consumption can be reduced.
It may be appreciated that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the values of the first adjustment amplitude, the second adjustment amplitude, the first variation threshold value, and the second variation threshold value may be set according to actual needs. For example, the first variation threshold and the fourth variation threshold are tx1 and tx2, respectively, where tx 1=1 and tx 2=0 may be taken. For example, the first adjusting amplitude can be 5, and the second adjusting amplitude can be 2, so that the coil temperature can be ensured to be stably close to the target temperature under the condition that the first adjusting amplitude is larger than the second adjusting amplitude, and the stability of the dehumidification control process of the heat pump dryer is ensured.
Based on the above, taking the example that the third temperature difference threshold value is 10 and the fourth temperature difference threshold value is 0, assuming that the humidity of the drying chamber is determined to be less than or equal to 0 < (Tp-Tm) and less than or equal to 10 at first, indicating that the humidity of the drying chamber does not reach the target humidity requirement, and entering dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of less than or equal to 0 < (Tp-Tm) and less than or equal to 10. In this case, the valve opening K of the first expansion valve may be set based on the temperature difference at this time 1 The difference obtained by subtracting the preset valve opening from the current value of (a) is used as the initial specified valve opening, such asThe determined initial specified valve opening may be K 1 -10; then, valve opening adjustment based on the coil temperature variation is performed on the basis of the initial specified valve opening. For example, the second set period may be taken as one period, for example, 20 seconds, and the temperature change amount Δt=t1-t0 of the coil temperature Tp of the dehumidification coil may be determined once every period, where t1 is the coil temperature at the end of the 20 second period, and t0 is the coil temperature at the beginning of the 20 second period; assuming that the first variation threshold is tx1, the second variation threshold is tx2, and tx1 > tx2, the first adjustment amplitude is 5, and the second adjustment amplitude is 2, there are: if Deltat > tx1, the valve opening of the first expansion valve at this time may be reduced to K 1 =K 1 -5; if Deltat is less than or equal to tx2, the valve opening degree of the first expansion valve at the time can be increased to K 1 =K 1 +2. Repeating the execution of the valve opening K based on Deltat 1 And (3) performing an adjustment process and re-acquiring Tp until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 0, entering dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of-3 < (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 0, and continuing to perform dehumidification control according to the control logic.
As shown in connection with fig. 2, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, in case that the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is greater than the first temperature difference threshold and less than or equal to the third temperature difference threshold, the second shut-off valve 213 in the drying thermodynamic loop is opened, and the valve opening of the second expansion valve 207 is controlled to be a preset valve opening.
For example, in the case where the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is greater than the first temperature difference threshold value and less than or equal to the second temperature difference threshold value, the valve opening degree K of the second expansion valve 207 may be controlled 2 Is maintained in the current valve opening state.
For example, in the case where the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is greater than the second temperature difference threshold value and less than or equal to the third temperature difference threshold value, the valve opening degree K of the second expansion valve 207 may be controlled 2 =K 2max 2, wherein K 2max K is the maximum valve opening of the second expansion valve 207, for example, the valve opening of the second expansion valve 207 ranges from 80 to 360 2max 360.
In an example embodiment of the present invention, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the initial specified valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference may further include: determining a maximum valve opening of the first expansion valve as an initial specified valve opening in the case where the temperature difference is greater than a third temperature difference threshold; and adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference and the initial specified valve opening until the temperature difference is less than or equal to a third temperature difference threshold.
In the process of adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve by using the temperature difference and the initial designated valve opening, one temperature difference threshold point can be selected in a range larger than a third temperature difference threshold value and is recorded as a fifth temperature difference threshold value, the range larger than the third temperature difference threshold value can be divided into a section larger than the third temperature difference threshold value and smaller than or equal to the fifth temperature difference threshold value and a section larger than the fifth temperature difference threshold value by the fifth temperature difference threshold value, different initial designated valve opening is determined according to different temperature difference sections where the temperature difference is located, and different dehumidification control logic can be adopted for dehumidification.
In an example embodiment, for a case where the temperature difference falls within a fifth temperature difference threshold interval that is greater than the third temperature difference threshold and less than or equal to the fifth temperature difference threshold interval, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference and the initially specified valve opening may include: when the temperature difference is larger than the third temperature difference threshold value and smaller than or equal to the fifth temperature difference threshold value, controlling the valve opening of the first expansion valve to be an initial designated valve opening, namely controlling the first expansion valve to work at the maximum valve opening, and acquiring the temperature variation of the temperature of the coil once every second preset time to obtain the temperature variation of the second coil; and adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature change amount of the second coil until the temperature difference is less than or equal to a third temperature difference threshold.
For example, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the second coil temperature variation may include: responsive to the second coil temperature variation being greater than a fifth variation threshold, reducing the valve opening of the first expansion valve by a fifth adjustment magnitude; and responsive to the second coil temperature variation being less than or equal to a sixth variation threshold, increasing the valve opening of the first expansion valve by a sixth adjustment magnitude. By way of example, the fifth variation threshold is greater than the sixth variation threshold, so that the second coil temperature variation can be stabilized between the fifth variation threshold and the sixth variation threshold, preventing the heat pump dryer from being out of control due to the greater variation, and reducing energy consumption. For example, the fifth adjustment amplitude may be greater than or equal to the sixth adjustment amplitude.
It may be appreciated that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the values of the fifth adjustment amplitude, the sixth adjustment amplitude, the fifth variation threshold, and the sixth variation threshold may be set according to actual needs. For example, the fifth variation threshold and the sixth variation threshold are tx5 and tx6, respectively, where tx 5=2 and tx 6=1 may be taken. For example, the fifth adjusting amplitude can be 5, and the sixth adjusting amplitude can be 2, so that the coil temperature can be ensured to be stably close to the target temperature under the condition that the fifth adjusting amplitude is larger than the sixth adjusting amplitude, and the stability of the dehumidification control process of the heat pump dryer is ensured.
Based on this, taking the example that the third temperature difference threshold is 10 and the fifth temperature difference threshold is 20, assuming that 10 < (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 20 is determined from the beginning, the humidity of the drying chamber is considered to be large, and dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of 10 < (Tp-Tm) is entered. In this case, the valve opening K of the first expansion valve may be set based on the temperature difference at this time 1 Controlling the maximum valve opening K of the first expansion valve 1max For example, if the valve opening of the first expansion valve is 80-360, K 1max =360; then at K 1max And (3) adjusting the opening of the valve based on the coil temperature variation. For example, the third set time period may be set as one period, for example, 25 seconds, and the temperature change amount Δt=t1-t0 of the coil temperature Tp of the dehumidification coil may be determined once every period, where t1 is the coil temperature at the end of the 25 second period, and t0 is the coil temperature at the beginning of the 25 second period; assuming that the fifth variation threshold is tx5, the sixth variation threshold is tx6, and tx5 > tx6, the fifth adjustment amplitude is 5, and the sixth adjustment amplitude is 2, there are: if Deltat > tx5, the valve opening of the first expansion valve at this time may be reduced to K 1 =K 1 -5; if Deltat is less than or equal to tx6, the valve opening degree of the first expansion valve at the time can be increased to K 1 =K 1 +2. Repeated execution baseAt Deltat for valve opening K 1 And (3) performing regulation until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 10, entering dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of less than or equal to 0 < (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 10, and continuously performing dehumidification control according to the control logic.
In an example embodiment, for a case where the temperature difference falls within a threshold temperature difference interval, adjusting the valve opening of the first expansion valve based on the temperature difference and the initial specified valve opening may include: and controlling the valve opening of the first expansion valve to be maintained at the initial designated valve opening in the case that the temperature difference is greater than the fifth temperature difference threshold. The initial specified valve opening is the maximum valve opening of the first expansion valve.
In this case, assuming that the fifth temperature difference threshold is 20, and (Tp-Tm) > 20 is initially determined, the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the section (Tp-Tm) > 20 is entered. In this case, the valve opening degree K of the first expansion valve is controlled 1 Maintained at the maximum valve opening K of the first expansion valve 1max Until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 20, the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of 10 < (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 20 can be entered, and the control of the dehumidification process can be continuously performed according to the control logic.
In the embodiment of the invention, under the condition that the temperature difference is larger than the third temperature difference threshold value, the humidity of the drying chamber can be considered to be larger, and at the moment, the maximum dehumidification efficiency can be exerted by controlling the valve opening of the first expansion valve to the maximum valve opening, so that the humidity of the drying chamber is reduced as soon as possible, the dehumidification efficiency is improved, the drying quality of the heat pump dryer is further ensured, and the drying efficiency is improved.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, when the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature is greater than the third temperature difference threshold, the humidity of the drying chamber is considered to be greater, and at this time, the second stop valve 213 in the drying thermodynamic loop may be closed, so that the refrigerant may completely pass through the dehumidification thermodynamic loop, thereby improving the dehumidification strength and efficiency, further ensuring the drying quality of the heat pump dryer, and improving the drying efficiency.
Based on the above embodiments, it may be understood that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the dehumidification process of the heat pump dryer is controlled based on the temperature difference between the coil temperature and the target temperature of the heat pump dryer, the control logic of the first stop valve, the first expansion valve, the second stop valve, and the second expansion valve may be different according to the temperature difference. The values of the first temperature difference threshold, the second temperature difference threshold, the third temperature difference threshold, the fourth temperature difference threshold and the fifth temperature difference threshold can be set according to actual needs.
In the following, referring to fig. 2, a dehumidification control method of a heat pump dryer according to an embodiment of the present invention is further illustrated by taking a first temperature difference threshold of-5, a second temperature difference threshold of-3, a third temperature difference threshold of 10, a fourth temperature difference threshold of 0, and a fifth temperature difference threshold of 20 as an example.
Assuming that the temperature difference (Tp-Tm) > 20 determined by the heat pump dryer at first, the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval (Tp-Tm) > 20 is entered. In this case, the second shut-off valve 213 may be closed, the first shut-off valve 205 may be opened, and the refrigerant may be circulated entirely through the dehumidification thermodynamic loop. At this time, the valve opening degree K of the first expansion valve 206 may be controlled 1 =k1max, at K 1 Is used for controlling the dehumidification of the valve opening; in the process of executing the dehumidification, the heat pump dryer acquires Tp again and determines a temperature difference (Tp-Tm), and as the dehumidification is carried out, (Tp-Tm) is gradually reduced until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to 20, and dehumidification control logic corresponding to a section of 10 < (Tp-Tm) is entered.
In the case where 10 < (Tp-Tm) < 20, the closed state of the second shut-off valve 213 and the open state of the first shut-off valve 205 can be maintained, K can be controlled 1 =K 1max The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the And the temperature change amount Δt of Tp may be determined with the set period of time as one cycle, for example, with 20 seconds as one cycle, and K may be adjusted based on the magnitude relation between Δt and the fifth change amount threshold value tx5 and the sixth change amount threshold value tx6 1 For example, if Δt > tx5, K will be 1 Reduced to K 1 -5, if Δt.ltoreq.tx 6, K 1 Increase to K 1 +2. Again, tp will be retrieved and the temperature difference (Tp-Tm) will be determined during this process until (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.10, and the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval 0 < (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.10 will be entered.
In the case where 0 < (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.10, the second section may be turned onCheck valve 213 maintains the open state of first shutoff valve 205, controlling K 2 =K 2max 2; at the same time, control K 1 =K 1 -10, then on the basis of this, the temperature variation Δt of Tp can be determined with a set period of time as one cycle, for example with 20 seconds as one cycle, and K can then be adjusted based on the magnitude relation between Δt and the first variation threshold value tx1 and the second variation threshold value tx2 1 For example, if Δt > tx1, K will be 1 Reduced to K 1 -5, if Δt.ltoreq.tx2, K 1 Increase to K 1 +2. Again, tp will be retrieved and the temperature difference (Tp-Tm) will be determined during this process until (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.0, and the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval-3 < (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.0 will be entered.
In the case of-3.ltoreq.Tp-Tm.ltoreq.0, the open state of the second shutoff valve 213 and the first shutoff valve 205 can be maintained, K is controlled 2 =K 2max 2; at the same time, hold K 1 On the basis, the temperature change delta t of Tp can be judged by taking a set time period as one period, for example, 20 seconds as one period, and K can be adjusted based on the magnitude relation of delta t and 0 1 For example, if Δt > 0, K will be 1 Reduced to K 1 -2, if Δt is less than or equal to 0, K 1 Increase to K 1 +2. Again, tp will be retrieved and the temperature difference (Tp-Tm) will be determined during this process until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to-3, and the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of-5 < (Tp-Tm) less than or equal to-3 will be entered.
In the case where-5 < (Tp-Tm) < 3, the opening states of the second shut-off valve 213 and the first shut-off valve 205 can be maintained, K can be controlled 1 Hold at K 1min Wherein K is 1min Is the minimum valve opening of the first expansion valve 206. Again, tp will be retrieved and the temperature difference (Tp-Tm) will be determined during this process until (Tp-Tm) is less than or equal to-5, and the dehumidification control logic corresponding to the interval of (Tp-Tm) less than or equal to-5 will be entered. For example, in the case of-5 < (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.3, K 2 Can be controlled according to the control logic of the drying thermodynamic loop.
In the case of (Tp-Tm). Ltoreq.5, it is considered that the humidity of the drying chamber has reached the humidity requirement, the opening state of the second shut-off valve 213 can be maintained, the first shut-off valve 205 is closed, and the dehumidification control is ended.
Therefore, proper dehumidification control logic can be selected for dehumidification according to the temperature difference between the coil temperature of the dehumidification disc and the target temperature, so that the heat pump dryer works in a better dehumidification state, the humidity requirement of the drying chamber is ensured, the drying quality is ensured, the drying efficiency is improved, and the energy consumption is reduced.
