Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl einer Kältemaschine, insbesondere einer Wärmepumpe, die einen ein Kältemittel aufweisenden geschlossenen Kreislauf umfasst, in dem ein Verdampfer, ein Verdichter, ein Verflüssiger und ein Expansionsventil angeordnet sind.The present invention relates to a method for determining the coefficient of performance of a refrigerating machine, in particular a heat pump, comprising a refrigerant having a closed circuit in which an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser and an expansion valve are arranged.
Als Leistungszahl (COP) einer Kältemaschine wird der Quotient aus Heizleistung der Kältemaschine und aufgenommener elektrischer Leistung der Kältemaschine bezeichnet. Herkömmlicherweise wird die elektrische Leistungsaufnahme der Kältemaschine über einen Stromzähler erfasst, während die Heizleistung der Kältemaschine durch eine Temperatur- und Volumenstrommessung auf der Wasserseite des Kältemittelkreislaufs, d.h. also hinter dem Verflüssiger, ermittelt wird.The coefficient of performance (COP) of a chiller is the quotient of the heating power of the chiller and the recorded electrical power of the chiller. Conventionally, the electric power consumption of the refrigerating machine is detected by an electricity meter, while the heating power of the refrigerator is detected by a temperature and volume flow measurement on the water side of the refrigerant circuit, i. So behind the condenser, is determined.
Bekannt ist auch ein Verfahren, bei dem mit Hilfe von zwei Drucksensoren und drei Temperatursensoren die Temperaturen und Drücke des Kältemittels an verschiedenen Stellen des Kreislaufs erfasst und zur Berechnung der Leistungszahl herangezogen werden. Mittels eines Stromzählers wird außerdem die elektrische Leistungsaufnahme der Kältemaschine erfasst. Durch Multiplikation der Leistungszahl mit der aufgenommenen elektrischen Leistung kann dann die Heizleistung der der Kältemaschine errechnet werden.Also known is a method in which, with the aid of two pressure sensors and three temperature sensors, the temperatures and pressures of the refrigerant are detected at different points of the circuit and used to calculate the coefficient of performance. By means of an electricity meter also the electrical power consumption of the chiller is detected. By multiplying the coefficient of performance with the recorded electrical power, the heating power of the chiller can then be calculated.
Als problematisch erweist sich bei den bekannten Verfahren bzw. Kältemaschinen, dass sowohl der Stromzähler als auch die Drucksensoren einen nicht unerheblichen Kostenfaktor darstellen.As problematic proves in the known methods or refrigeration that both the electricity meter and the pressure sensors represent a significant cost factor.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein kostengünstigeres Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl einer Kältemaschine zu schaffen.The invention has for its object to provide a cost-effective method for determining the coefficient of performance of a chiller.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe ist ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 bzw. 4 vorgesehen.To achieve the object, a method having the features of claim 1 or 4 is provided.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren nach Anspruch 1 werden zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl einer Kältemaschine, insbesondere einer Wärmepumpe, die einen ein Kältemittel aufweisenden geschlossenen Kreislauf umfasst, in dem ein Verdampfer, ein Verdichter, ein Verflüssiger und ein Expansionsventil angeordnet sind, mit Hilfe von mindestens drei Temperatursensoren, die in dem Kreislauf angeordnet sind, wenigstens drei Temperaturen des Kältemittels ermittelt. Aus den ermittelten Kältemitteltemperaturen werden Enthalpien und Drücke des Kreislaufs berechnet, und aus Differenzen der berechneten Enthalpien werden sowohl die Heizleistung als auch die aufgenommene elektrische Leistung der Kältemaschine berechnet. Aus dem Quotienten der berechneten Heizleistung und der berechneten aufgenommenen elektrischen Leistung wird schließlich die Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine bestimmt.In the inventive method according to claim 1 are for determining the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator, in particular a heat pump, comprising a refrigerant having a closed circuit in which an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser and an expansion valve are arranged, with the aid of at least three temperature sensors , which are arranged in the circuit, determined at least three temperatures of the refrigerant. From the determined refrigerant temperatures, enthalpies and pressures of the circuit are calculated, and from differences in the calculated enthalpies, both the heating power and the consumed electric power of the refrigerator are calculated. From the quotient of the calculated heating power and the calculated absorbed electrical power finally the coefficient of performance of the chiller is determined.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren nach Anspruch 1 wird die Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine mit anderen Worten ausschließlich anhand von Temperaturwerten ermittelt, die von drei in dem Kältemittelkreislauf angeordneten Temperatursensoren geliefert werden, wobei eine gewisse Kenntnis der thermodynamischen Eigenschaften des Systems, insbesondere des Kältemittels und des Verdichters, vorausgesetzt wird. Durch die Messung der Kältemitteltemperaturen an drei verschiedenen Stellen des Kältemittelkreislaufs wird ein Minimum von Information über den Kältemittelkreislauf ermittelt, der erforderlich ist, um die Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine bestimmen zu können.In other words, in the method according to the invention, the coefficient of performance of the refrigerating machine is determined exclusively on the basis of temperature values supplied by three temperature sensors arranged in the refrigerant circuit, assuming some knowledge of the thermodynamic properties of the system, in particular of the refrigerant and of the compressor becomes. By the Measurement of the refrigerant temperatures at three different points of the refrigerant circuit, a minimum of information about the refrigerant circuit is determined, which is required to determine the coefficient of performance of the chiller can.
Eine Verwendung von zusätzlichen Sensoren, z.B. weiteren Temperatursensoren oder Drucksensoren, die typischerweise etwa zehnmal teurer als Temperatursensoren sind, ist somit grundsätzlich nicht erforderlich. Insbesondere kann auf den Einsatz eines kostspieligen Stromzählers verzichtet werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Verwendung einer minimalen Anzahl von Temperatursensoren ermöglicht es also, die Leistungszahl einer Kältemaschine mit einem minimalen Kostenaufwand zu ermitteln.Use of additional sensors, e.g. further temperature sensors or pressure sensors, which are typically about ten times more expensive than temperature sensors, is therefore generally not required. In particular, can be dispensed with the use of a costly electricity meter. The inventive use of a minimum number of temperature sensors thus makes it possible to determine the coefficient of performance of a chiller with a minimum cost.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform des Verfahrens wird eine erste Temperatur im Bereich des Eingangs des Verdichters, eine zweite Temperatur im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verflüssigers und eine dritte Temperatur im Bereich des Ausgangs des Expansionsventils gemessen. Die an diesen Stellen des Kältemittelkreislaufs gemessenen Kältemitteltemperaturen reichen grundsätzlich aus, um die Enthalpien des Kreislaufs zu ermitteln und hieraus letztlich die Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine zu bestimmen.According to an advantageous embodiment of the method, a first temperature in the region of the inlet of the compressor, a second temperature in the region of the outlet of the condenser and a third temperature in the region of the outlet of the expansion valve are measured. The refrigerant temperatures measured at these points of the refrigerant circuit are generally sufficient to determine the enthalpies of the circuit and ultimately to determine the coefficient of performance of the refrigerator.
Alternativ kann mittels eines vierten Temperatursensors zusätzlich eine vierte Temperatur ermittelt und zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl herangezogen werden, wobei die vierte Temperatur bevorzugt im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verdichters ermittelt wird. Durch die Messung der Kältemitteltemperatur am Verdichterausgang braucht diese nicht mehr durch ein Verdichtermodell berechnet zu werden, sondern sie kann exakt ermittelt werden. Auf diese Weise kann die Leistungszahl einfacher, schneller und genauer bestimmt werden.Alternatively, by means of a fourth temperature sensor additionally a fourth temperature can be determined and used to determine the coefficient of performance, wherein the fourth temperature is preferably determined in the region of the output of the compressor. By measuring the refrigerant temperature at the compressor outlet, this no longer needs to be calculated by a compressor model, but can be determined accurately. In this way, the figure of merit can be determined easier, faster and more accurately.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren nach Anspruch 4 werden zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl einer Kältemaschine mit Hilfe von wenigstens zwei Temperatursensoren und mindestens einem Drucksensor, die in dem Kältemittelkreislauf angeordnet sind, wenigstens zwei Temperaturen und ein Druck des Kältemittels ermittelt. Aus den ermittelten Kältemitteltemperaturen und dem ermitteltem Kältemitteldruck werden Enthalpien des Kreislaufs und aus Differenzen zwischen den Enthalpien die Heizleistung und die aufgenommene elektrische Leistung der Kältemaschine berechnet. Aus dem Quotienten der berechneten Heizleistung und der berechneten aufgenommenen elektrischen Leistung wird dann die Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine bestimmt.In the method according to claim 4 of the invention, at least two temperatures and a pressure of the refrigerant are determined to determine the coefficient of performance of a chiller with the aid of at least two temperature sensors and at least one pressure sensor, which are arranged in the refrigerant circuit. From the determined refrigerant temperatures and the determined refrigerant pressure enthalpies of the circuit and from differences between the enthalpies the heating power and the absorbed electric power of the chiller are calculated. The coefficient of performance of the chiller is then determined from the quotient of the calculated heating power and the calculated absorbed electrical power.
Auch bei dieser Variante des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens lässt sich die Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine unter Verwendung einer minimalen Anzahl von Sensoren und insbesondere ohne einen Stromzähler und somit besonders kostengünstig ermitteln. In diesem Fall erfolgt die Bestimmung der Leistungszahl ausschließlich anhand der durch die zwei Temperatursensoren und den einen Drucksensors gelieferten Messwerte, wobei auch hier gewisse Kenntnisse des Systems, insbesondere der thermodynamischen Eigenschaften des Kältemittels und des Verdichters, vorauszusetzen sind.Also in this variant of the method according to the invention, the coefficient of performance of the chiller can be determined using a minimum number of sensors and in particular without an electricity meter and thus particularly cost. In this case, the determination of the coefficient of performance takes place exclusively on the basis of the measured values supplied by the two temperature sensors and the one pressure sensor, whereby here too knowledge of the system, in particular of the thermodynamic properties of the refrigerant and of the compressor, must be assumed.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform des Verfahrens nach Anspruch 4 wird eine erste Temperatur im Bereich des Eingangs des Verdichters, eine zweite Temperatur im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verflüssigers und ein erster Druck im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verdampfers gemessen.According to an advantageous embodiment of the method according to claim 4, a first temperature in the region of the inlet of the compressor, a second temperature in the region of the outlet of the condenser and a first pressure in the region of the outlet of the evaporator is measured.
Zusätzlich kann eine dritte Temperatur ermittelt und zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl herangezogen werden, wobei die dritte Temperatur bevorzugt im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verdichters ermittelt wird. Aufgrund der zusätzlichen Messung einer dritten Temperatur ist es möglich, Berechnungen, die bei der Verwendung von nur drei Sensoren zur Ermittlung der Enthalpien erforderlich sind, insbesondere zur Bestimmung der Kühlmitteltemperatur am Verdichterausgang, durch eine tatsächliche Messung zu ersetzen, wodurch die Bestimmung der Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine einfacher, schneller und mit einer höheren Genauigkeit erfolgen kann.In addition, a third temperature can be determined and used to determine the coefficient of performance, wherein the third temperature is preferably determined in the region of the output of the compressor. Due to the additional measurement of a third temperature, it is possible to replace calculations that are required with the use of only three sensors for determining the enthalpies, in particular for determining the coolant temperature at the compressor output, by an actual measurement, whereby the determination of the coefficient of performance of the chiller easier, faster and with greater accuracy.
Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann ein zweiter Druck ermittelt und zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl herangezogen werden, wobei der zweite Druck vorzugsweise im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verflüssigers ermittelt wird. Auch die Messung des zweiten Druckes trägt zu einer schnelleren und genaueren Bestimmung der Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine bei, indem auf die ohne die direkte Messung erforderliche Berechnung des Druckwertes verzichtet werden kann.Alternatively or additionally, a second pressure can be determined and used to determine the coefficient of performance, wherein the second pressure is preferably determined in the region of the outlet of the condenser. Also, the measurement of the second pressure contributes to a faster and more accurate determination of the coefficient of performance of the chiller, by eliminating the need to calculate the pressure value without the direct measurement.
Weitere Gegenstände der Erfindung sind außerdem die Kältemaschinen nach Anspruch 8 bzw. 11. Mit Hilfe dieser Kältemaschinen lassen sich die erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren besonders gut durchführen und die voranstehenden Vorteile entsprechend erreichenFurther objects of the invention are also the chillers according to claim 8 or 11.

Zur Ermittlung der Kältemitteltemperatur ist ein Temperatursensor 28 im Bereich des Eingangs des Verdichters 14, ein Temperatursensor 30 im Bereich des Ausgangs des Verflüssigers 16 und ein Temperatursensor 32 im Bereich des Ausgangs des Expansionsventils 18 angeordnet. Die Temperatursensoren 28, 30, 32 sind mit einer Auswerteeinheit 26 verbunden, die in eine Steuerung der Kältemaschine integriert sein kann.For determining the refrigerant temperature, a
Die Kältemaschine wird hier in ihrer Funktion als Wärmepumpe beschrieben.
Der Punkt E in
Der Verdichter 14 sorgt für eine Verdichtung (B-C) des Kältemittels, die mit einer entsprechenden Temperaturerhöhung einhergeht. Beispielsweise kann die Temperatur des Kältemittels von etwa +10°C am Ausgang des Verdampfers 12 durch den Verdichter 14 bis auf etwa +90°C erhöht werden.The
Im Verflüssiger 16 erfolgt eine Verflüssigung (C-D) des Kältemittels, wobei die Verflüssigungstemperatur zum Beispiel +50°C betragen kann. Das nunmehr flüssige und nur noch 50°C warme Kältemittel wird anschließend durch das Expansionsventil 18 entspannt (D-E), wobei es beispielsweise bis auf etwa 0°C abkühlt.In the
Nachfolgend wird als T1 die Temperatur des gasförmigen Kältemittels am Eingang des Verdichters 14, als T2 die Temperatur des flüssigen Kältemittels am Ausgang des Verflüssigers 16, als T3 die Temperatur des expandierten Kältemittels am Ausgang des Expansionsventils 18 und als T4 die Temperatur des gasförmigen Kältemittels am Ausgang des Verdichters 14 bezeichnet.Hereinafter, as T1, the temperature of the gaseous refrigerant at the inlet of the
Als P1 wird der Verdampfungsdruck, d.h. also der Druck des gasförmigen Kältemittels am Ausgang des Verdampfers 12, und als P2 der Verflüssigungsdruck, d.h. also der Druck des flüssigen Kältemittels am Ausgang des Verflüssigers 16 bezeichnet.As P1, the evaporation pressure, i. that is, the pressure of the gaseous refrigerant at the outlet of the
Zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl der Kältemaschine wird zunächst die Enthalpie H1 am Ausgang des Verflüssigers 16, die Enthalpie H2 am Eingang des Verdichters 14 und die Enthalpie H3 am Ausgang des Verdichters 14 ermittelt.To determine the coefficient of performance of the chiller, first the enthalpy H1 at the outlet of the
Dabei ist die Enthalpie H 1 eine Funktion der Kältemitteltemperatur T2 am Ausgang des Verflüssigers, die Enthalpie H2 eine Funktion der Kältemitteltemperatur T1 am Eingang des Verdichters 14 und des Kältemitteldrucks P1 am Ausgang des Verdampfers 12 und die Enthalpie H3 eine Funktion der Kältemitteltemperatur T4 am Ausgang des Verdichters 14 und des Kältemitteldrucks P2 am Ausgang des Verflüssigers 16:
Bei der in
Die Auswerteeinheit 26 berechnet unter Verwendung der Druckgleichung des verwendeten Kältemittels aus dem empfangenen Wert für die Temperatur T2 am Ausgang des Verflüssigers 16 den Druck P2 und aus dem Temperaturwert T3 am Ausgang des Expansionsventils 18 den Druck P1. Als Druckgleichung kann beispielsweise die allgemein bekannte Clausius-Clapeyron-Gleichung verwendet werden.The
In Kenntnis der Temperaturen T1 und T2 sowie des Druckes P1 lassen sich nun durch die Gleichungen (1) und (2) die Enthalpien H1 und H2 bestimmen.Knowing the temperatures T1 and T2 and the pressure P1, the enthalpies H1 and H2 can now be determined by equations (1) and (2).
Die Enthalpie H3 wird, da die Temperatur T4 nicht bekannt ist, aus dem Verdichtermodell berechnet.The enthalpy H3, since the temperature T4 is not known, is calculated from the compressor model.
Hierzu wird angenommen, dass etwa 95 % der von dem Verdichter 14 aufgenommenen elektrischen Leistung in den Kältekreislauf induziert werden. Die von dem Verdichter 14 aufgenommene elektrische Leistung Qel wird dabei nicht durch einen Stromzähler ermittelt, sondern durch ein die thermodynamischen Eigenschaften des Verdichters 14 beschreibendes Modell berechnet, z.B. ein 10-Koeffizienten-Modell.For this, it is assumed that about 95% of the electric power consumed by the
Mit Hilfe dieses Modells kann nicht nur die von dem Verdichter 14 aufgenommene elektrische Leistung, sondern auch die Kälteleistung Q0 des Verdichters 14, der von dem Verdichter 14 aufgenommene elektrische Strom I und der Massenstrom m° des durch den Verdichter 14 strömenden Kältemittels berechnet werden.By means of this model, not only the electric power consumed by the
Dabei gelten die berechneten Werte nur für den dokumentierten Arbeitspunkt des Verdichters 14 bei entweder konstanter Überhitzung oder konstanter Sauggastemperatur, d.h. konstanter Temperatur T1 des Kältemittels am Verdichtereingang. Um die Werte des realen Betriebspunkts zu berechnen, müssen die Werte in Abhängigkeit von der realen Verdichtereingangstemperatur T1 korrigiert werden.The calculated values apply only to the documented operating point of the
Die von dem Verdichter 14 aufgenommene elektrische Leistung Qel wird durch den Massenstrom m0 geteilt, um die Enthalpiedifferenz H3-H2 zu bestimmen:
Da die Enthalpie H2 aus Gleichung (2) bekannt ist, lässt sich aus der Enthalpiedifferenz H3-H2 leicht die Enthalpie H3 berechnen.Since the enthalpy H2 from equation (2) is known, the enthalpy H3-H2 can be easily calculated from the enthalpy difference H3-H2.
Zur Kontrolle wird die Kältemitteltemperatur T4 am Verdichterausgang aus dem Schnittpunkt der Linie der Enthalpie H3 mit der Linie des Druckes P2 in dem Log p, H - Diagramm von
Aus der Differenz der berechneten Enthalpien H3 und H 1 wird anschließend gemäß der Gleichung
die Heizleistung Qh der Kältemaschine berechnet. Die von dem Verdichter 14 aufgenommene elektrische Leistung Qel wurde bereits mit Hilfe des Verdichtermodells ermittelt und ist gemäß Gleichung (4) proportional zu der Differenz der Enthalpien H3 und H2.From the difference of the calculated enthalpies H3 and H1 is then according to the equation
calculates the heating capacity Qh of the chiller. The electrical power Qel received by the
Zur Bestimmung der Leistungszahl COP bzw. des Wirkungsgrades der Kältemaschine braucht abschließend nur noch der Quotient aus der Heizleistung Qh und der elektrischen Leistung Qel gebildet zu werden:
Durch eine Integration der Leistungszahl über die Zeit kann aus der Leistungszahl außerdem die Jahresarbeitszahl der Kältemaschine ermittelt werden. Entsprechend können die Heizleistung Qh und die elektrische Leistung Qel über die Zeit integriert werden, um die Heizenergie und die aufgenommene elektrische Energie anzuzeigen. Die Leistungsaufnahme von Zusatzgeräten, wie z.B. Pumpen, Elektronik, etc., kann dabei durch geeignete Parameter in die Berechnung einfließen.By integrating the coefficient of performance over time, it is also possible to determine from the coefficient of performance the annual working factor of the chiller. Accordingly, the heating power Qh and the electric power Qel can be integrated over time to indicate the heating energy and the absorbed electric power. The power consumption of ancillary equipment, such as Pumps, electronics, etc., can be incorporated into the calculation by suitable parameters.

Anschließend werden gemäß den Gleichungen (1) bis (3) aus den gemessenen Temperaturen T1, T2, T4 und den berechneten Drücken P1, P2 die Enthalpien H1, H2 und H3 bestimmt und hieraus nach Gleichung (6) die Leistungszahl ermittelt.According to the first embodiment, the

Anders als bei der dritten Ausführungsform braucht der Druck P2 bei dieser Ausführungsform also nicht unter Verwendung der Druckgleichung des verwendeten Kältemittels aus der Temperatur T2 am Ausgang des Verflüssigers 16 berechnet zu werden, sondern er wird direkt gemessen.
