The operation of air-conditioning system according to the preferred embodiment of the invention below will be described.
As shown in Figure 2, when cooling down operation, second cold-producing medium of circulation is by compressor 51 compressions in thermal source circulation 2.Then, cold-producing medium is introduced compressor 51 then through first cross valve 53, outdoor heat converter 55, second cross valve 61, heating unit 52, outdoor expansion valve 63, cooling unit 54, second cross valve 61, first cross valve 53 and liquid reservoir 59.Above-mentioned cyclic process is repeatedly carried out.
Controller 65 cuts out heating pipe line switch valve 49, but opens cooling line switch valve 45.Therefore, the entrance side refrigerant line 11b of first liquid refrigerant by cooling line 43 and indoor unit 11 that is stored in second container 41 introduces indoor unit 11.First liquid refrigerant of introducing indoor unit 11 is through indoor expansion valve 15 and indoor heat converter 13, thereby is inflated and carries out heat exchange.Then, first liquid refrigerant absorbs latent heat, thus and cooling chamber inner room.
First gaseous refrigerant that evaporates in the indoor expansion valve of process 15 backs is introduced first container 21 by the outlet side refrigerant line 11b of indoor unit 11.Then, first gaseous refrigerant cools off, reduces pressure, is condensed into first liquid refrigerant by cooling unit 54, stays then on the dividing plate 23.
When the pressure reduction of a certain amount of first liquid refrigerant by explanation subsequently was stored among the lower space 21b of first container 21, refrigerant liquid level sensor 28 detected first liquid refrigerant.
Controller 65 is opened switch valve 33 and 37, and opens connecting line 31 and pressure balance pipeline 35, thereby first liquid refrigerant that will be stored in lower space 21b returns to second container 41.
Because the position that second container 41 is provided with is lower than first container 21, therefore first liquid refrigerant returns to second container 41 by gravitational difference by first container 21.
First gaseous refrigerant of second container 41 is introduced the lower space 21b of first container 21 by pressure balance pipeline 35.Then, when controller 65 cuts out connecting line 31 and pressure balance pipeline 35, first gaseous refrigerant of introducing first container, 21 lower space 21b dispels the heat by first liquid refrigerant that is stored in first container, 21 upper space 21a, thereby is condensed into first liquid refrigerant.Under this state, between the upper space 21a of first container 21 and lower space 21b, produce pressure reduction.Therefore, first liquid refrigerant of staying in upper space 21a on the dividing plate 23 passes through the lower space 21b that first liquid refrigerant line 25 is introduced first container 21.First liquid refrigerant that is stored in first container, 21 lower space 21b returns to second container 41 with the method identical with said method.
First liquid refrigerant that returns to second container 41 and therefore be stored among second container, the 41 lower space 41b is introduced indoor unit 11 by cooling line 43.Then, first liquid refrigerant is through indoor expansion valve 15 and indoor heat converter 13, thereby is inflated and carries out heat exchange, thus the cooling chamber inner room.
First gaseous refrigerant is introduced into first container 21 by the outlet side refrigerant line 11b of indoor unit 11.Then, first gaseous refrigerant cools off, reduces pressure, is condensed into first liquid refrigerant by cooling unit 54, stays then on the dividing plate 23 of first container 21.Above-mentioned cyclic process is repeatedly carried out.
As shown in Figure 4, when heating operation, second cold-producing medium of circulation is by compressor 51 compressions in thermal source circulation 2.Then, cold-producing medium is introduced compressor 51 then through first cross valve 53, second cross valve 61, heating unit 52, outdoor expansion valve 63, cooling unit 54, second cross valve 61, outdoor heat converter 55, first cross valve 53 and liquid reservoir 59.Above-mentioned cyclic process is repeatedly carried out.
Controller 65 cuts out switch valve 45, but opens switch valve 49.Therefore, the entrance side refrigerant line 11a of first gaseous refrigerant by heating pipe line 47 and indoor unit 11 that is stored in second container 41 introduces indoor unit 11.Introduce the indoor expansion valve 15 of first gaseous refrigerant process of indoor unit 11, and carry out heat exchange by indoor heat converter 13, thus the heating clamber inner room.
First gaseous refrigerant of process indoor heat converter 13 is introduced first container 21 by the outlet side refrigerant line 11a of indoor unit 11.Then, first gaseous refrigerant cools off, reduces pressure, is condensed into first liquid refrigerant by cooling unit 54, stays then on the dividing plate 23 of first container 21.
Stay first liquid refrigerant on the dividing plate 23 in upper space 21a inside and introduce the lower space 21b of first container 21 by the pressure reduction between above-mentioned upper space 21a and the lower space 21b.When a certain amount of first liquid refrigerant was stored in lower space 21b, controller 65 returned to second container 41 with first liquid refrigerant of first container, 21 lower space 21b inside.
First liquid refrigerant that returns to second container 41 and therefore be stored among second container, the 41 lower space 41b is introduced indoor unit 11 by heating pipe line 47.Then, first liquid refrigerant indoor expansion valve 15 of process and indoor heat converter 13, thus carry out heat exchange, thus the heating clamber inner room.
Introduce the upper space 21a of first container 21 by the outlet side refrigerant line 11a of indoor unit 11 through first gaseous refrigerant of indoor heat converter 13.Then, first gaseous refrigerant cools off, reduces pressure, is condensed into first liquid refrigerant by cooling unit 54, stays then on the dividing plate 23 of first container 21.
As mentioned above, in the present invention, first liquid refrigerant that is stored in first container returns to second container without intermediate receptacle.Therefore, reduced the difference in height between first container and second container, thereby simplified the overall structure of air-conditioning system, be convenient to the system of installing an air-conditioner, and reduce production costs.
And, in the present invention, owing to not only first cold-producing medium is sent back to, therefore compares and more reduced first refrigerant amount that is stored in first container and second container with conventional art by the difference in height between first container and second container but also by the first container median septum.
Because the present invention can implement under the situation that does not break away from spirit of the present invention or essential feature in many ways, it will also be appreciated that the above-mentioned specific embodiment is not limited by any details of aforementioned specification, unless it is dated especially, can very wide in range explanation in the defined spirit and scope of claims, therefore belong to the border of claim and the institute in the scope and change and revise, therefore the equivalent structure of perhaps this border and scope also is contained in the appended claim.
