The preset value of the delta Q can be determined through experiments in the circulation flow preheating process, for example, the preset value of the delta Q is 1L/min, and when the delta Q is larger than or equal to 1L/min, the user is judged to use hot water in the circulation preheating process.

s32, igniting and preheating the water heater 10, and increasing the water flow in the circulating pipeline to q2 when the water flow temperature T' detected by the second temperature sensor 22 on the water outlet pipe 21 of the water heater 10 reaches T2 which is 25 ℃; q2 can be more than or equal to q1, when q1 is less than q2, the peak current of the water pump during starting is favorably reduced, and the service life of the water pump is favorably prolonged;
s33, the water heater 10 is continuously preheated, and when the water flow temperature T detected by the first temperature sensor 7 in the external control module 16 is 1-2 degrees lower than the preheating temperature, the water flow in the circulating pipeline is reduced to q 3; when the circulation preheating is close to stop, the water flow is reduced, the preheated water flow can be reduced to enter the cold water pipe 13, and the influence on the water flow temperature in the whole cold water pipe 13 is small;
s34, when the water flow temperature T detected by the first temperature sensor 7 in the external control module 16 reaches the preheating temperature of 43 ℃, the water pump 17 stops working, the water heater 10 stops preheating, and the water control valve 5 is reset and closed.
Further, in step S3, during the cyclic preheating process, the water flow rate detected by the first water flow rate sensor 6 is Q1, and the water flow rate detected by the second water flow rate sensor 9 is Q2; by comparing and analyzing the monitoring values of Q1 and Q2, the main controller 18 can judge whether the user uses hot water in the circulating preheating process, if the user uses hot water, the main controller 18 stops the water pump 17 to reduce the power consumption of the water heater 10, and at the moment, the water heater 10 enters a common or pressurized bathing heating mode to provide comfortable water for the user; if the user is not using hot water and the water flow temperature T detected by the first temperature sensor 7 is less than the preheating temperature 43 deg.c, the main controller 18 continues to perform the circulation preheating until the water flow temperature T detected by the first temperature sensor 7 is greater than or equal to the preheating temperature 43 deg.c.
Further, the specific method for the main controller 18 to determine whether the user is using hot water during the cyclic preheating process is as follows: when the second water flow sensor 9 is arranged between the first node 31 and the third node 33 on the hot water communicating pipe 3, the second water flow sensor 9 detects the water flow in the hot water pipe 14 at the farthest water using point 153; if the user uses hot water at the farthest water usage point 153, the hot water flowing through the hot water connection pipe 3 is branched to the connection pipe 1 and the farthest water usage point 153, and there is a large difference between Q2 and Q1; Q2-Q1 ═ Δ Q, when Δ Q is greater than or equal to 1L/min, then the main controller 18 determines that the user is using hot water at the farthest water usage point 153 during the cyclic warm-up. If the user uses hot water at the other consumption sites 15, there is no large difference between Q2 and Q1, and the values of Q2 and Q1 are significantly reduced before and after the user begins using hot water; therefore, when Δ Q is less than 1L/min, but Q1 and Q2 both decrease by a certain value, the main controller 18 determines that the user uses hot water at the other water usage points 15 during the cyclic preheating.
Example 4
The present embodiment is a control method of a gas water heater system of embodiment 3, and is similar to embodiment 3, except that the specific method for the main controller 18 to determine whether the user uses hot water in the cyclic preheating process is as follows: when the second water flow sensor 9 is arranged between the second node 32 and the third node 33 on the hot water communication pipe 3, the second water flow sensor 9 detects the water flow at the hot water end of the mixing valve at the farthest water using point 153; the value of Q1 is significantly reduced after the user begins to use hot water regardless of whether the user uses hot water at the remote water usage point 153 or the other water usage points 15, so in this case, when Q1 is reduced by a certain value, the main controller 18 determines that the user is using hot water during the circulation preheating process, and the reduced value of Q1 can also be experimentally determined during the circulation flow preheating process. By determining the value of Q2, it can also be determined whether the user is using hot water at the remote water usage point 153 or at the other water usage point 15. When the user uses hot water at the farthest water using point 153, Q2 is more than or equal to 2L/min; when the user uses hot water at the other water usage points 15, Q2 is less than 2L/min.
The other parts of this example are the same as example 3.
