The refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 flows through the outdoor heat exchanger 105, enters the accumulator 201 through the liquid-side header pipe 3 and the first control valve 207, is supercooled, then enters the liquid-side header pipe 3 through the second liquid pipe 205 and the second throttle 209, is evaporated in the indoor heat exchanger, and then returns to the suction side of the compressor 101 through the gas-side header pipe 4 and the gas-liquid separator 110.

Instead of using the outdoor heat exchanger 105, the accumulator 201 is used as a condenser to provide cooling energy for the refrigeration cycle. Because the temperature of the cold storage material in the energy accumulator 201 is far lower than the outdoor ambient temperature, the refrigeration cycle can be operated under the condition of low pressure ratio, and the load of the compressor 101 is greatly reduced.

At this time, the accumulator 201 and the outdoor heat exchanger 105 are used together for condensation. Because the energy accumulator 201 and the outdoor heat exchanger 105 are used as condensing equipment at the same time, a larger condensing amount can be provided, and the requirement of high-load operation of the unit is met.

The accumulator 201 now bears the entire evaporation load

As shown in fig. 13, in the defrosting mode:

third throttling elements

The refrigerant discharged from the compressor 101 passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 105 and is condensed, and then enters the accumulator 201 through the liquid-side header pipe 3 and the first throttle 206, and after being evaporated, the refrigerant returns to the suction side of the compressor 101 through the fourth control valve 210, the second gas pipe 203, and the gas-liquid separator 110. The refrigerant evaporates in the accumulator 201 without flowing through the indoor unit, and the stored heat is used to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger 105.

When the electricity price is low, the energy storage equipment 2 is used for storing energy; when the electricity price is in a peak, the energy storage equipment 2 is used for cooling or heating, so that energy can be provided for the system, the running frequency of the compressor is reduced, the power consumption is reduced, the running cost is reduced, the peak clipping and valley filling of the electric power are realized, and the running cost of the air conditioner is reduced.

When defrosting is performed by using the energy storage device 2, the system can bear the evaporation load, and compared with a scheme of reverse cycle defrosting (namely, an indoor heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, and an outdoor heat exchanger is used as a condenser) adopted by a non-energy-storage air conditioner, heat does not need to be absorbed from the indoor space, so that the indoor comfort is kept. On the whole, the multifunctional energy storage air conditioning system can effectively achieve the purpose of reducing the operation cost aiming at various application scenes.

The user can generally determine from the real-time electricity rates and power consumption: when the electricity price is at the peak value or the refrigeration requirement of the air conditioner is large, the low energy consumption requirement and the ultra-low energy consumption requirement can be set according to the actual situation.

When the air conditioning system only has refrigeration requirement, the pipeline is switched to a 'normal refrigeration' mode, and the energy accumulator 201 is not used; when detecting that the system only has a cold accumulation requirement, switching to a 'complete cold accumulation' mode without using an indoor unit; when the system is detected to have cold accumulation requirements and refrigeration requirements at the same time, the system is switched to a refrigeration and cold accumulation simultaneous mode, and the flow of the refrigerant distributed to the energy accumulator 201 is adjusted through the opening degree of the first throttling element 206; when the system has the refrigeration requirements of low energy consumption and high condensation capacity and the cold quantity is stored in the energy accumulator 201, the system is switched to a parallel cold release mode, and in the mode, the energy accumulator and the outdoor heat exchanger are used as condensers at the same time, so that the purposes of reducing the energy consumption and increasing the condensation capacity can be achieved; when the system has the refrigeration requirements of low energy consumption and low condensation capacity and the cold energy is stored in the energy accumulator 201, the system is switched to a 'supercooling cold releasing' mode, and in the mode, the stored cold energy is utilized to supercool the refrigerant, so that extra cold energy is provided, and the purpose of reducing the energy consumption can be realized; when the system has the requirement of ultra-low energy consumption for cooling and refrigeration and the energy accumulator 201 stores cold, the system is switched to a 'condensing and cooling' mode, the energy accumulator 201 serves as a condenser, and an indoor unit serves as an evaporator to achieve refrigeration circulation.

When the air conditioning system only has heating requirements, switching the pipeline to a 'conventional heating' mode; when the system only needs heat storage, the system is switched to a 'complete heat storage' mode; when the system has the requirement of heating and heat storage, switching to a heating and heat storage mode; when the system has low energy consumption heat release and heating requirements and heat is stored in the energy accumulator 201, the system is switched to a 'mixed heat release' mode, and at the moment, the energy accumulator 201 and the outdoor heat exchanger 105 are simultaneously used as evaporators, so that the suction pressure of the compressor 101 is improved, the discharge capacity of the compressor 101 and the refrigerating capacity of the system are improved, the running frequency of the compressor 101 is reduced, and the purpose of reducing energy consumption is achieved; when the system has the ultra-low energy consumption heat release and heating requirements and heat is stored in the energy accumulator 201, the system is switched to an independent heat release mode, and at the moment, the energy accumulator 201 is used as an independent heat source and has a high heat exchange temperature, so that the heating capacity of a refrigerant can be greatly improved, and the energy consumption of the system is reduced; when the system is detected to have a defrosting requirement and heat is stored in the energy accumulator 201, the four-way valve is reversed and switched to a defrosting mode, and the heat stored in the energy accumulator 201 is released to provide heat for defrosting of the outdoor heat exchanger 105.

In the cooling mode, when there is a demand for a large reduction in power consumption in a short time, a condensing and cooling function may be used, that is, a refrigeration cycle may be performed by using an accumulator alone as a condenser without using an outdoor heat exchanger as the condenser. Because the temperature of the energy storage material in the energy accumulator after storing the cold energy is lower and is far lower than the outdoor environment temperature, the compressor does not need to provide overhigh pressure, the system can operate under the condition of low compression ratio, and the energy consumption of the system is greatly reduced. Meanwhile, the heat conduction between the low-temperature energy storage material and the refrigerant is utilized to replace the air cooling heat exchange of the outdoor heat exchanger, so that the heat exchange efficiency is improved. Under the heating mode, the energy accumulator can be independently used as an evaporator to form a refrigeration cycle with the indoor heat exchanger, so that the energy consumption is reduced, and the efficiency is improved.
