  • the object of the invention is achieved by the method according to claim 1. Furthermore, the object of the invention is achieved by the control device according to claim 10 and claim 11 and by the heat pump according to claim 12.
  • a heat pump is also understood, depending on the context, to be a reversible heat pump, a refrigeration machine or a refrigeration system.
  • a cooling medium is also called a refrigerant.
  • the temperature of the compressor is recorded and a function of the heat pump is controlled as a function of the temperature of the compressor. In this way, efficient control of the heat pump can be achieved. In particular, overloading of the compressor or damage to the compressor can be avoided.
  • the temperature of the compressor is used to prevent the compressor from starting when the temperature of the compressor is below a first limit value. This will prevent damage to the compressor.
  • the temperature of the compressor should be at least a predetermined value higher than the temperature of the surroundings. For example, 10 ° C should be sufficient as a difference between the ambient temperature and the temperature of the compressor.
  • an opening cross section of the throttle is defined as a function of the temperature of the compressor, in particular an opening cross section of the throttle is limited. In this way, further cooling of the compressor can be avoided.
  • Monitoring the temperature of the compressor has the advantage, for example, that the cooling medium of the heat pump does not dissolve in the oil of the compressor.
  • the cooling medium can dissolve in the compressor oil if the compressor oil is too cold.
  • the absorption of the cooling medium in the oil affects the properties of the oil, in particular the lubricity of the oil can be reduced.
  • operation of the compressor is prevented if the temperature of the compressor is below a second limit value. This function also prevents the compressor from malfunctioning.
  • the temperature of the cooling medium is detected in the direction of flow upstream of the compressor, and the delivery rate of the compressor is controlled as a function of the detected value. For example, the delivery rate of the compressor can be reduced or the compressor can be switched off if the temperature of the cooling medium is below a predetermined value. This ensures that the compressor is not damaged by liquid refrigerant.
  • the temperature of the cooling medium in the flow direction downstream of the compressor is recorded and the delivery rate of the compressor is controlled as a function of the recorded value, in particular the delivery rate is reduced or the compressor is switched off.
  • the delivery rate of the compressor is reduced if the detected temperature value is below a predetermined limit value. This also reduces the risk of damaging the compressor.
  • a period of time can be provided during which the recorded value of the temperature must be below the predetermined limit value before an intervention in the function of the compressor, in particular a reduction in the delivery rate of the compressor or a shutdown of the compressor he follows. This ensures that brief, uncritical temperature fluctuations do not interfere with the functioning of the compressor.
  • sensors in particular temperature sensors, which are used to detect the temperature of the compressor, are monitored with regard to a malfunction. If a malfunction is detected, at least one error signal is output and / or the compressor is switched off. This can prevent a malfunction of the heat pump or damage to the compressor.
  • a torque of the compressor is monitored, an error signal being generated and / or the power of the compressor being at least limited when a predetermined limit value is exceeded.
  • the compressor is preferably switched off when the limit value is exceeded. This procedure prevents damage to the compressor in the event of excessive torque.
  • the torque of the compressor is monitored during a starting phase of the compressor. This situation can occur, for example, if the compressor is iced up. A start should be avoided if the compressor is iced up. The start phase is aborted when the torque of the compressor is above a specified value. In this way, overloading or damage to the compressor during the start-up phase is reliably avoided.
  • the operation of the compressor is prevented and an error signal is output if more than a predetermined number of aborted start phases have occurred. This avoids unnecessary repetition of start phases. This means that the compressor is not unnecessarily stressed.

  • a start process is then attempted again. For example, after five may be unsuccessful Starting processes, an alarm signal is generated and output by the control device 32.

Claims (12)

  1. Procédé pour commander une pompe à chaleur comprenant un compresseur, un condenseur, un étrangleur et un évaporateur, la température du compresseur étant détectée et une fonction de la pompe à chaleur étant commandée en fonction de la température du compresseur, caractérisé en ce qu'un démarrage du compresseur est inhibé lorsque la température détectée est inférieure à une première valeur limite.
  2. Procédé selon la revendication 1, une section transversale d'ouverture de l'étrangleur étant fixée, notamment limitée en fonction de la température mesurée.
  3. Procédé selon l'une des revendications précédentes, un fonctionnement du compresseur étant inhibé lorsque la température détectée est inférieure à une deuxième valeur limite.
  4. Procédé selon l'une des revendications précédentes, la température d'un fluide frigorigène étant détectée avant le compresseur dans le sens de l'écoulement et une capacité de refoulement du compresseur étant commandée, notamment réduite en fonction de la valeur détectée.
  5. Procédé selon l'une des revendications précédentes, la température d'un fluide frigorigène étant détectée après le compresseur dans le sens de l'écoulement et une capacité de refoulement du compresseur étant commandée, au moins réduite en fonction de la valeur détectée.
  6. Procédé selon l'une des revendications 4 et 5, la température étant détectée avec un capteur, un fonctionnement du capteur étant surveillé et au moins la puissance du compresseur étant réduite dans le cas d'un défaut de fonctionnement du capteur, le compresseur étant de préférence mis à l'arrêt.
  7. Procédé selon l'une des revendications précédentes, un couple du compresseur étant surveillé et, en cas de dépassement d'un couple prédéfini, un signal de défaut étant généré et/ou la puissance du compresseur étant au moins limitée, le compresseur étant notamment mis à l'arrêt.
  8. Procédé selon la revendication 7, le couple lors d'une phase de démarrage du compresseur étant surveillé, la phase de démarrage étant interrompue lorsque le couple dépasse une valeur prédéfinie.
  9. Procédé selon la revendication 8, une phase de démarrage étant de nouveau effectuée après une interruption de la phase de démarrage, et le démarrage du compresseur étant inhibé et un signal de défaut étant généré après un nombre prédéfini de phases de démarrage interrompues.
  10. Contrôleur, qui est configuré pour mettre en œuvre un procédé selon l'une des revendications 1, 2, 3, 7, 8 et 9.
  11. Contrôleur, qui est configuré pour mettre en œuvre un procédé selon l'une des revendications 4, 5 et 6.
  12. Pompe à chaleur (1), comprenant un compresseur (3), un condenseur (4), un étrangleur (5), un évaporateur (2), un contrôleur (32) selon la revendication 10 et un capteur de température (26) qui est configuré pour détecter une température du compresseur (3) et la communiquer au contrôleur (32).
