The following will describe a scale detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application in detail with reference to a specific embodiment, and fig. 2 is a flowchart of a scale detection method provided in the embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 2, specific steps are as follows:
step 201, after receiving a scale detection instruction of a user, acquiring a current solenoid valve current value, a current water flow, a water inlet water temperature, a water outlet water temperature, a flue gas temperature and an environmental temperature of the gas water heater.
In practice, after the gas water heater is operated for a long time, scale deposition in the heat exchange tube of the gas water heater is serious. When the scale is more, the heat exchange effect of the gas water heater can be affected. The scale absorbs heat, so that the heat exchange tube is overheated at high temperature, and the heat exchange tube is deformed or burnt out to leak water. Therefore, it is necessary to periodically or in real time detect the presence or absence of scale in the gas water heater. According to the characteristic of heat absorption of the scale, whether the scale exists in the gas water heater can be effectively detected by judging whether the total output energy comprises the energy absorbed by the scale. That is, when there is no scale in the gas water heater, the total input load generated by the gas combustion includes the energy consumed for water temperature increase (water flow energy consumption) and the energy consumed by the gas combustion to generate smoke (smoke energy consumption). When scale exists in the gas water heater, the total input load comprises energy (water scale energy consumption) for absorbing the scale in addition to energy (water flow energy consumption) for heating water and energy (flue gas energy consumption) for consuming flue gas generated by combustion of the gas. Based on this, it is possible to determine whether scale is present in the gas water heater by determining the total input load, water flow rate energy consumption and smoke energy consumption generated by the gas combustion of the gas water heater and then comparing them. Therefore, the scale detection instruction of a user can be received, the opening of the proportional valve is controlled to be fixed by outputting a fixed electromagnetic valve current value, and the incoming gas flow is ensured to be fixed, so that the total input load is a fixed value. The scale detection instruction input by the user can be in the form of a function key triggered by the user. For example, a user triggers a scale detection function key, the gas water heater receives a scale detection instruction of the user, and the current electromagnetic valve current value, the current water flow, the water inlet water temperature, the water outlet water temperature, the flue gas temperature and the environment temperature of the gas water heater are obtained. The subsequent steps determine the total input load, water flow energy consumption and flue gas energy consumption based on the parameters.
Step 202, determining the total input load according to the current solenoid valve current value, and inquiring the current flue gas flow in the corresponding relation between the pre-stored solenoid valve current value and the flue gas flow.
In practice, the total input load of the gas water heater is provided by the combustion gas of the gas water heater, so that the total input load of the gas water heater can be determined according to the gas flow of the combustion gas. The opening of the proportional valve is controlled by adjusting the current value of the electromagnetic valve, so that the gas flow entering the combustion chamber for combustion is ensured. The technical staff performs experiments in advance, and determines the total input load of each corresponding gas water heater according to the current value of each electromagnetic valve of the electromagnetic valve. Therefore, the total input load can be determined according to the solenoid valve current value of the gas water heater. The flue gas flow is the flow of the flue gas generated when the gas water heater burns the gas. The flue gas flow is related to the burnt gas flow, the burnt gas flow is different, and the consumed flue gas energy consumption is different, so the flue gas energy consumption consumed by the gas combustion is determined, and the flue gas flow needs to be determined first. Therefore, a technician collects the corresponding generated smoke flow according to the current values of the electromagnetic valves in advance, and determines the corresponding relation between the current values of the electromagnetic valves and the smoke flow. The gas water heater stores the corresponding relation between the current value of the electromagnetic valve and the smoke flow. Based on the corresponding relation, inquiring the current smoke flow corresponding to the current electromagnetic valve current value.
Step 203, determining water flow energy consumption for heating and consuming the water flow in the heating process according to the current water flow, the water inlet water temperature, the water outlet water temperature, the specific heat capacity of water and the water density.
In the implementation, the water flow energy consumption is the current water flow in the gas water heater in the heating process of the gas water heater, and the energy absorbed in the process of increasing the water inlet temperature to the water outlet temperature. Therefore, the water flow energy consumption is related to the current water flow, the water inlet temperature, the water outlet temperature, the specific heat capacity of water, the density of water and other parameters. Therefore, the water flow energy consumption for heating and consuming the water flow in the heating process can be determined according to the current water flow, the water inlet water temperature, the water outlet water temperature, the specific heat capacity of water and the water density.
As an alternative embodiment, the formula for determining the water flow rate energy consumption for heating the water flow rate in the heating process according to the current water flow rate, the water inlet water temperature, the water outlet water temperature, the specific heat capacity of water and the water density is as follows:
q1=c1*ρ1*V1*(t effluent water -t Inflow of water )
Wherein q1 represents water flow energy consumption, c1 represents specific heat capacity of water, ρ1 represents density of water, V1 represents current water flow, t Effluent water Shows the water temperature, t Inflow of water Representing the temperature of the incoming water.
Step 204, determining the flue gas energy consumption of the flue gas consumption generated by combusting the fuel gas in the fuel gas water heater in the heating process according to the flue gas temperature, the ambient temperature, the current flue gas flow, the specific heat capacity of the flue gas and the density of the flue gas.
In practice, the flue gas energy consumption is the energy absorbed by the gas water heater during the heating process when the flue gas flow is generated by the gas burning the current gas flow in the gas water heater. Therefore, the flue gas energy consumption is related to the flue gas temperature, the ambient temperature, the current flue gas flow, the specific heat capacity of the flue gas and the density of the flue gas. Therefore, the flue gas energy consumption of the flue gas consumption generated by combusting the fuel gas in the fuel gas water heater in the heating process can be determined according to the flue gas temperature, the ambient temperature, the current flue gas flow, the specific heat capacity of the flue gas and the density of the flue gas.
As an alternative embodiment, the formula for determining the flue gas energy consumption of the flue gas consumption generated by combusting fuel gas in the gas water heater during heating according to the flue gas temperature, the ambient temperature, the current flue gas flow, the specific heat capacity of the flue gas and the density of the flue gas is as follows:
q2=c2*ρ2*V2*(t flue gas -t Environment (environment) )
Wherein q2 represents flue gas energy consumption, c2 represents specific heat capacity of flue gas, ρ2 represents density of flue gas, V2 represents current flue gas flow, t Flue gas Indicating the temperature of the flue gas, t Environment (environment) Indicating the ambient temperature.
Step 205, determining the difference between the current total input load and the water flow energy consumption and the smoke energy consumption as the scale energy consumption.
In practice, when there is no scale in the gas water heater, the current total input load includes water flow energy consumption for water heating consumption and flue gas energy consumption for flue gas consumption resulting from gas combustion. I.e. q=q1+q2, Q represents the current total input load, Q1 represents the water flow energy consumption, Q2 represents the flue gas energy consumption. When the water scale exists in the gas water heater, the total input load comprises the water scale energy consumption for absorbing the water scale besides the water flow energy consumption for water heating consumption and the smoke energy consumption for smoke consumption generated by gas combustion. I.e. q=q1+q2+q3, Q represents the current total input load, Q1 represents water flow energy consumption, Q2 represents flue gas energy consumption, Q3 represents scale energy consumption. Based on this, the current total input load and the water flow energy consumption, the flue gas energy consumption can be made different, and the difference between the current total input load and the water flow energy consumption, the flue gas energy consumption can be determined as the scale energy consumption.
And 206, alarming if the energy loss of the scale is larger than a preset energy loss threshold value of the scale.
In implementation, after the energy loss of the scale is determined, the energy loss of the scale is compared with a preset energy loss threshold value of the scale, if the energy loss of the scale is larger than the preset energy loss threshold value of the scale, the scale in the current gas water heater is indicated to be more, and then an alarm is given for prompting and warning a user that the scale is needed to be removed, so that the service life and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger in the gas water heater are improved.
As an alternative embodiment, the preset scale energy loss threshold is a product of a preset scaling factor and the current total input load. The preset proportion coefficient can be ten percent, namely when the energy loss ratio of the scale is 10 percent higher than the current total input load, the gas water heater gives an alarm to prompt a user to perform scale removal operation.
Further, if the energy loss of the scale is smaller than or equal to a preset energy loss threshold of the scale, a prompt message is output, wherein the prompt message is the message for prompting the user that the condition of the gas water heater is good and the scale removal is not needed.
In the implementation, the energy loss of the scale is compared with a preset energy loss threshold value of the scale, if the energy loss of the scale is smaller than or equal to the preset energy loss threshold value of the scale, the scale in the current gas water heater is smaller or no scale is indicated, prompt information is output, and the prompt information is information for prompting a user that the condition of the gas water heater is good and no scale removal is needed.
The embodiment of the application provides a scale detection method, in the heating process of a gas water heater, if no scale exists in the gas water heater, the total input load is used for heating water to consume heat and burning gas to produce energy consumed by flue gas. If the gas water heater has scale, the total input load is used for the energy consumed by water heating, the heat consumed by flue gas generated by gas combustion and the energy consumed by the scale. Based on the above, the current total input load, water flow energy consumption and smoke energy consumption are determined, and the difference between the current total input load, water flow energy consumption and smoke energy consumption is determined, wherein the difference is the scale energy consumption, namely the energy absorbed by the scale. If the energy loss of the scale is larger than the preset energy loss threshold value of the scale, the alarm is given to prompt a user that the scale exists in the gas water heater, and the scale removing operation can be performed. Therefore, the scale in the gas water heater can be effectively detected.
