Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Wärmepumpenanlage.The present invention relates to a heat pump system.
Wärmepumpen zur Erwärmung von Heizungswasser werden seit Jahren produziert und vermarktet. Die Bereitstellung der Heizwärme bei Wärmepumpen erfolgt durch die Kondensation von Kältemittel unter hohem Druck und damit bei hoher Temperatur, während die Wärme an ein Wärmeträgermedium, beispielsweise Heizungswasser, abgeben wird. Das verflüssigte Kältemittel wird anschließend in einem Drosselorgan, zum Beispiel einem Expansionsventil, entspannt und verdampft daraufhin unter Aufnahme von Umgebungswärme im Verdampfer der Wärmepumpe. Der Kältemitteldampf wird vom Verdichter der Wärmepumpe komprimiert, so dass er anschließend wieder im Kondensator der Wärmepumpe verflüssigt werden kann.Heat pumps for heating heating water have been produced and marketed for years. The provision of heating heat in heat pumps is done by the condensation of refrigerant under high pressure and thus at high temperature, while the heat to a heat transfer medium, such as heating water, will give. The liquefied refrigerant is then in a throttle body, for example, an expansion valve, relaxed and then evaporates while absorbing ambient heat in the evaporator of the heat pump. The refrigerant vapor is compressed by the compressor of the heat pump, so that it can then be liquefied again in the condenser of the heat pump.
Wird der Kreislauf des Kältemittels umgekehrt. d. h., wird das Kältemittel in dem Wärmeaustauscher, der im Heizbetrieb als Verdampfer dient, unter Wärmeabgabe verflüssigt und in dem Wärmeaustauscher, der im Heizbetrieb als Verflüssiger dient, unter Wärmeaufnahme verdampft, so kann die Wärmepumpe zum Kühlen des Wärmeträgermediums wie beispielsweise des "Heizungswassers" eingesetzt werden. Im Kühlbetrieb nimmt das "Heizungewasser" dann beim Durchströmen der Raum-Heizflächen, die im Kühlbetrieb zu Raum-Kühlflächen werden, Wärme aus dem Raum auf, die dann an den im Kühlbetrieb als Verflüssiger funktionierenden Verdampfer der Wärmepumpe abgegeben wird, so dass das Heizungswasser gekühlt wird.If the cycle of the refrigerant is reversed. ie, the refrigerant in the heat exchanger, which serves as an evaporator in the heating operation, liquefied under heat and in the heat exchanger, which serves as a condenser in the heating, evaporates under heat absorption, the heat pump can be used for cooling the heat transfer medium such as the "heating water" become. In cooling mode, the "heating water" then flows through the space-heating surfaces, which are in cooling mode to space-cooling surfaces, heat from the room, which is then delivered to the working in the cooling operation as a condenser evaporator heat pump, so that the heating water is cooled.
Ein Nachteil reversibler Heizungswärmepumpen zum Heizen und Kühlen besteht darin, dass sich beim Umkehren des Kältekreises die Durchströmungsrichtung der Wärmeaustauscher auf der Kältemittelseite ändert Da die Strömungsrichtung auf der Sekundärseite, auf der entweder (Heizungs)wasser oder Luft strömt, unverändert bleibt, wird dadurch mit der Umkehr des Kältekreises aus einem Gegenstrom-Wärmeaustauscher ein Gleichstromwärmeaustauscher mit verminderter Effizienz und vergrößertem mittleren Temperaturabstand zwischen Kältemittel und Wasser bzw. Luft. Dadurch sinkt die Leistungszahl der Wärmepumpe in einer der beiden Betriebsarten. Reversible Heizungswärmepumpen sind daher im Allgemeinen entweder für den Heiz- oder den Kühlbetrieb optimiert und erreichen in der jeweils anderen Betriebsart nur bescheidene Leistungszahlen.A disadvantage of reversible heating heat pumps for heating and cooling is that the direction of flow of the heat exchangers on the refrigerant side changes when the refrigerant circuit is reversed. The flow direction on the secondary side, where either (heating) water or air flows, remains unchanged Reversing the refrigeration circuit from a countercurrent heat exchanger, a DC heat exchanger with reduced efficiency and increased mean temperature distance between the refrigerant and water or air. This reduces the coefficient of performance of the heat pump in one of the two operating modes. Reversible heating heat pumps are therefore generally optimized for either heating or cooling operation and only achieve modest performance figures in the other operating mode.
Es ist somit Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Wärmepumpenanlage vorzusehen, die sowohl im Heiz- als auch im Kühlbetrieb effektiv arbeitet.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a heat pump system that works effectively both in heating and cooling operation.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Wärmepumpenanlage gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a heat pump system according to claim 1.
Durch eine geeignete Anordnung von Rückschlagventilen kann ein Wärmeüberträger, der im Heizbetrieb als Verdampfer arbeitet und im Kühlbetrieb als Verflüssiger arbeitet, in beiden Betriebsarten sowohl von Kältemittel als auch beispielsweise von Heizungswasser in der gleichen Richtung durchströmt werden, so dass der Wärmeüberträger in beiden Betriebsarten als (Kreuz)-Gegenstromwärmeüberträger arbeiten kann, was eine Verbesserung der Effektivität bewirkt.By a suitable arrangement of check valves, a heat exchanger, which operates in the heating mode as an evaporator and operates in the cooling mode as a condenser, are flowed through in both modes of both refrigerant and, for example, heating water in the same direction, so that the heat exchanger in both modes as ( Cross) countercurrent heat exchanger can work, which causes an improvement in the effectiveness.

Das Ventil 16 ist sowohl mit einem Schauglas 12 als auch mit einem elektronischen Expansionsventil 19 gekoppelt, Das Schauglas 12 ist wiederum mit dem Economizer 6 und in Reihe dazu mit einer Abtauschlange 7 gekoppelt, Die Abtauschlange 7 ist wiederum mit einem Anschluss des Rekuperators 5 gekoppelt. Das elektronische Expansionsventil 19 ist sowohl mit einem Ventil 17 als auch mit einem weiteren Schauglas 23 gekoppelt. In Reihe zu dem Expansionsventil 17 sind Einspritzkapillaren 22 vorgesehen, welche sowohl mit dem Verdampfer 3 als auch mit einem Ventil 20 gekoppelt sind. In Reihe zu dem Schauglas 23 ist ein Ventil 18 angeordnet, welches wiederum mit dem Verdampfer und einem Ventil 21 gekoppelt ist. Der Rekuperator ist sowohl mit einem Ventil 20 als auch mit einem Ventil 21 gekoppelt.The
Die Wärmepumpenanlage gemäß dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel kann in zwei Betriebsarten, nämlich einer Heizbetriebsart HB und einer Kühlbetriebsart KU betrieben werden. Bei der Heizbetriebsart HB erfolgt eine Bereitstellung der Heizwärme durch eine Kondensation von Kältemittel unter einem hohen Druck und somit einer hohen Temperatur, während die sich in dem Kältemittel befindliche Wärme an ein Wärmeträgermedium wie beispielsweise Heizungswasser abgegeben wird. Dies erfolgt in dem Verflüssiger 2, wobei das Wärmeträgermedium durch den Eingang E eintritt und den Ausgang A austritt, und das austretende Wärmeträgermedium die Wärme von dem Kältemittel zumindest teilweise aufgenommen hat. Das verflüssigte Kältemittel wird durch das Ventil 19 entspannt und verdampft unter Aufnahme von Umgebungswärme im Verdampfer 3. Der Kältemitteldampf wird in dem Verdichter 1 komprimiert und anschließend an den Verflüssiger weitergeleitet.The heat pump system according to the first embodiment can be operated in two modes, namely, a heating mode HB and a cooling mode KU. In the heating mode HB, the heating heat is provided by a condensation of refrigerant under a high pressure and thus a high temperature, while the heat contained in the refrigerant is discharged to a heat transfer medium such as heating water. This takes place in the
Das Ventil 19 dient als Expansionsventil in der Kühl- und der Heizbetriebsart.The
Da der Sekundärkreislauf in dem ersten Wärmeüberträger 2 (Wasser) die entgegengesetzte Strömungsrichtung aufweist wie das Kältemittel, wird ein Gegenstrom-Wärmeüberträger realisiert, welcher eine verbesserte Effizienz im Vergleich zu einem Gleichstrorn-Wärmeüberträger aufweist.Since the secondary circuit in the first heat exchanger 2 (water) has the opposite flow direction as the refrigerant, a countercurrent heat exchanger is realized, which has an improved efficiency compared to a direct-current heat exchanger.
Durch die Verschaltung des Verdampfers 3 mit den beiden Pfaden B, C kann ein Umschalten des Kältemittelkreislaufes bewirkt werden, ohne dass es zu einer Umkehrung des Kältemittelflusses durch den Verdampfer kommt, so dass der Verdampfer immer als ein Gegenstrom-Verdampfer arbeitet. Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Umschalteineinheit vor dem Verdampfer und eine Umschalteinheit nach dem Verdampfer angeordnet. Die Umschalteinheit vor dem Verdampfer kann sich aus den beiden Rückschlagventilen 20, 21 zusammensetzen, während die zweite Umschalteinheit hinter dem Verdampfer sich aus den Rückschlagventilen 17 und 18 zusammensetzen kann. Die beiden Pfade B. C sind jeweils parallel zu dem Verdampfer angeordnet. Durch die erste und zweite Umschalteinheit kann sichergestellt werden, dass das Kältemittel durch den Verdampfer immer nur in eine Richtung fließt.By the connection of the
Eine weitere Betriebsart, nämlich die Kreisumkehrabtauung, kann auf die gleiche Art und Weise wie der Kühlbetrieb während des Heizbetriebs aktiviert werden, wobei dabei der Lüfter L1 des zweiten Wärmeüberträgers 3 ausgeschaltet wird.Another mode, namely the Kreisumkehrabtauung can be activated in the same manner as the cooling operation during the heating operation, while the fan L1 of the
Der während des Heizbetriebs beschriebene innere Wärmetauscher, nämlich der Economizer 6, der Rekuperator 5 und die Abtauschlange sind lediglich optional. Der Rekuperator 5 dient dabei dazu, das zum Verdichter 1 strömende Sauggas während des Heizbetriebs weiter zu überhitzen. Der Economizer 6 dient während des Heizbetriebs dazu, einen Teilvolumenstrom des flüssigen Kältemittels unter Aufnahme von Energie aus dem Hauptvolumenstrom des unterkühlten Kältemittels zu verdampfen, bevor es in den Verdichter 1 eingespritzt wird. Somit kann der bereits um einen Teil des gesamten Druckverhältnisses pc/p0 komprimierte Hauptvolumenstrom des Kältemittels zwischengekühlt werden. Falls der innere Wärmetauscher nicht benötigt wird, dann muss eine direkte Verbindung zwischen dem Filtertrockner und dem Schauglas vorgesehen werden.The internal heat exchanger described during the heating operation, namely the economizer 6, the

Der Verdichter kann ferner als ein einstufiger Hubkolben-Verdichter, als ein zweistufiger Hubkolben-Verdichter, als ein einstufiger Rollkolben-Verdichter oder als ein zweistufiger Rollkolben-Verdichtsr ausgestaltet sein.The compressor 1 described above may be a scroll compressor or a scroll compressor designed for post-injection of vapor refrigerant. The compressor may also be configured as a single-stage reciprocating compressor, a two-stage reciprocating compressor, a single-stage rotary piston compressor, or a two-stage rotary piston compactor.
Die oben beschriebene Wärmepumpenanlage kann als eine Luft/Wasserwärmepumpe, als eine Luft/Luftwärmepumpe, als eine Sole/Wassörwärmepumpe oder als eine Wasser/Wasserwärmepumpe ausgestaltet sein.The heat pump system described above may be configured as an air / water heat pump, an air / air heat pump, a brine / water heat pump, or a water / water heat pump.
Als Kältemittel kann H-FKW-Kältemittel, Kohlenwasserstoffe oder CO2 verwendet werden.The refrigerant used can be HFC refrigerants, hydrocarbons or CO 2 .
