Definitions
- Refrigeration device with a compartment that can be used in various ways
- the present invention relates to a refrigeration device, in particular a household refrigeration device, with at least one storage compartment which can be used at widely variable temperatures, possibly even at temperatures above ambient temperature.
- Such a refrigeration device is known from DE 102016 032 986 A, for example.
- heat exchangers of a first compartment and a second compartment, each with an upstream and a downstream expansion valve are arranged in parallel line strands of the refrigerant circuit, and both strands open onto the evaporator of a third cooled compartment.
- the pressure in the first or second compartment between the outlet and suction pressure of a compressor can be set largely as desired, and accordingly variable temperatures can be set to a large extent in the compartments. Keeping these temperatures constant with changing ambient temperatures is difficult, however, since each adjustment of a single expansion valve leads to changes in the pressure in more than one evaporator.
- a refrigeration device with several storage compartments, a refrigerant circuit in which a first expansion valve, a first heat exchanger, a second expansion valve and a second heat exchanger in between a pressure connection and a suction connection of a compressor Series are connected, and each heat exchanger is assigned to at least one storage compartment to control the temperature, and a control unit for controlling the speed of the compressor and the positions of the expansion valves, the control unit for each storage compartment a continuously linear controller with at least one P component for estimating a temperature control power requirement based on a difference between the setpoint and actual temperature of the storage compartment as well as a model computing unit which is set up for at least one first of the storage compartments temperature-controlled by the first heat exchanger and a second one of the storage compartments temperature-controlled by the second heat exchanger on the basis of their
- Temperature control power requirement to set a target evaporation temperature and by selecting the speed of the compressor and the positions of the valves, the heat exchangers of the first and second storage compartment at the target
- the P component is understood here to mean a component in the output signal of the controller that is proportional to the deviation entered into the controller.
- the controller can also have at least one I component, that is to say a component proportional to the time integral of the deviation and / or a D component, a component proportional to the time derivative of the deviation.
- heat exchanger instead of “evaporator” takes into account the fact that the temperature control effect can not only be cooling through evaporation of liquid refrigerant in the heat exchanger, but also, in particular in the first heat exchanger, heating through condensation of refrigerant vapor or subcooling of already liquid refrigerant.
- the temperature at which evaporation or condensation take place is always referred to as the evaporation temperature.
- the heat exchangers each have a heat transfer coefficient determined by their design, installation geometry and the like, which indicates the transfer performance per degree of temperature difference between the refrigerant in the heat exchanger and its surroundings, ie the storage compartment heated by the heat exchanger.
- a target evaporation temperature can therefore be obtained by reducing the compartment temperature by the quotient of the temperature control power requirement and the heat transfer coefficient (the sign of the temperature control power requirement being assumed to be positive if the temperature control is cooling).
- a heat exchanger can be combined in a manner known per se with a fan, which drives the air circulation via the heat exchanger, in order to increase performance.
- the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is assumed as a function of an operating parameter of the fan, in particular its output or speed.
- the relationship between the value of the operating parameter and the resulting heat transfer coefficient can be calculated using a formula during operation of the refrigeration device or looked up in a table - possibly based on measurements made on a prototype of the refrigeration device.
- a desired compartment temperature can be achieved both with a low fan speed and a low evaporation temperature and with a high fan speed and an evaporation temperature close to the desired compartment temperature, in which case the drying of the air des Storage compartment is much stronger than in the latter due to the formation of frost on the heat exchanger.
- This fact can be used to set the humidity in the storage compartment to a desired value.
- This humidity control can expediently be limited to the case that the deviation between the actual and setpoint temperature of the storage compartment does not exceed a limit value. If the limit value is exceeded, priority should be given to cooling the compartment down quickly; for this purpose, the fan should run at maximum speed regardless of the temperature of the heat exchanger.
- control unit In order to be able to end a deviation of a compartment temperature from its setpoint quickly and with minimal repercussions on other storage compartments, it is important that the control unit can estimate the "correct" values of a manipulated variable in advance and does not have to wait for the effects after making a manipulated variable correction then to compensate this if necessary. Contributing to this goal is if the control unit is set up to calculate a mass flow of refrigerant for each storage compartment, the evaporation of which covers the temperature control power requirement of the storage compartment, to add up the mass flows to a total mass flow and to select the speed of the compressor so that the total mass flow of the compressor provided. The evaporation can also have a “negative sign”, ie if the temperature control is a heating of the storage compartment, condensation can take place in the relevant heat exchanger.
- a third heat exchanger of a third storage compartment is connected downstream of the second heat exchanger without an interposed throttle point, in particular if the third storage compartment is a normal refrigeration compartment and the second is a freezer compartment, refrigerant vapor coming from the second heat exchanger makes a relevant contribution to the cooling effect of the third evaporator.
- the control unit should be set up to take into account the cooling capacity of the steam flowing in from the second heat exchanger when calculating the mass flow of refrigerant to be evaporated in the third heat exchanger.
- the heat transfer coefficient of the third heat exchanger is very different, depending on whether it is Contains vapor or liquid refrigerant.
- the control unit should take this into account by estimating a heat transfer coefficient of the third heat exchanger as a function of the volume ratio between liquid and gaseous refrigerant at the transition between the second and third heat exchanger.
- the heat transfer coefficient can be used as a weighted mean value based on the volume ratio between the
- Heat transfer coefficients of the steam-filled and the liquid-filled third heat exchanger can be calculated.
- the refrigerant circuit can comprise several parallel line strands, one of which is the first expansion valve, the first heat exchanger and the second Expansion valve and at least one other has a third expansion valve, a fourth heat exchanger and a fourth expansion valve.
- the fourth storage compartment can be controlled by the control unit in the same way as the first and second storage compartment.

- FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of a control unit of the refrigeration device.
- FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a refrigeration device according to the invention.
- a heat-insulating housing 1 at least three, here four storage compartments 2, 3, 4, 23 are cut out.
- a heat exchanger 5, 6, 7, 24 is assigned to each of these storage compartments 2, 3, 4, 23.
- the assignment can consist, for example, in that the heat exchanger is embedded in the manner of a cold wall evaporator between an inner container of the storage compartment and an insulating material layer surrounding the inner container, or that the heat exchanger 5, 6, 7, 24 is embedded in the inner container 8 of the relevant storage compartment 2 , 3, 4, 23 is mounted.
- a partition 9 can be provided in the inner container, which divides the volume of the inner container into the storage compartment 2, 3, 4 and a heat exchanger chamber 10 accommodating the heat exchanger 5, 6, 7.
- a fan 11 can be assigned to each heat exchanger 5, 6, 7, 24 in order to facilitate the heat transfer between the storage compartment 2, 3 , 4, 23 and their heat exchangers 5, 6, 7, 24 to intensify.
- the speed or power of such a fan 11 can be predetermined or, as will be explained in more detail below, controllable.
- Each storage compartment 2, 3, 4, 23 is equipped with a temperature sensor 12. Measured values from the temperature sensors 12 are recorded by a control circuit 13.
- a refrigerant circuit comprises, one after the other, a condenser 15, a pressure line 16, a first expansion valve 17, the heat exchanger 5, a second expansion valve 18, the second heat exchanger 6, the third heat exchanger 7 and a suction line 19 which leads to a suction connection of the compressor 14.
- a fourth storage compartment 23 is also provided, its heat exchanger 24, an upstream expansion valve 25 and a downstream expansion valve 26 can be arranged in a branch of the refrigerant circuit which is parallel to one of the expansion valves 17, 18 and the Branch containing heat exchanger 5 extends between two connection points 27, 28. If necessary, further parallel branches each with two expansion valves and a heat exchanger for temperature control of further storage compartments can be provided.
- the expansion valves 17, 18, 25, 26 are of a type known per se, not described here, and designed to set an opening cross-section between the inlet and outlet that is predetermined by a control signal.
- the source of the control signals is the control circuit 13.
- the pressure line 16 and the suction line 19 run in opposite directions over part of their length in close contact to form an internal heat exchanger 22 in which the compressed refrigerant gives off residual heat to the steam in the suction line 19 shortly before it reaches the expansion valve 17.
- the pressure difference occurring at the expansion valves 17, 25 is variable within wide limits.
- the expansion valve 17 (or 25) is opened to the maximum in the heat exchanger 5 (or 24) there is a pressure that differs only slightly, if at all, from the pressure at the pressure connection of the compressor 14, so that in the heat exchanger 5 (or 24) how in the condenser 15 condensation of refrigerant can take place and the storage compartment 2 (23) can be operated at a target temperature above the ambient temperature, and in the condenser 15 and heat exchanger s and / or 24 condensed refrigerant via the expansion valve 18 to the heat exchangers 6 and 7 is fed.
- the upper limit of the temperature at which storage compartment 2 or 23 can be operated should not be below + 18 ° C.
- a non-negligible pressure drop at the expansion valve 18 is necessary.
- the maximum pressure difference at the expansion valve 18 should be sufficient to enable the storage compartment 3 to operate in the freezer compartment even when essentially the full output pressure of the compressor 14 is present at the inlet of the expansion valve 18.
- both heat exchangers 6, 7 and a line connecting them can be manufactured from the same type of tube with constant cross-sectional dimensions.
- Setpoint temperatures for all three storage chambers 2, 3, 4 can be set on a user interface 20 of the control circuit 13. If one of the storage chambers 2, 3, 4 has a fan 11, the user interface 20 can also provide the option of selecting a humidity value for the relevant storage chamber.
- Fig. 2 shows a block diagram of the control unit 13.
- target sizes inputs especially target the target temperatures T, fiexi of the storage compartment 2, T target, f ri dge of the land under normal refrigeration compartment
- Storage compartment 4 and T target f r eeze r of storage compartment 3 operated as a freezer compartment and optionally Tt arge t, fiex2 of storage compartment 23 and target humidity values cptarget, fiexi of storage compartment 2 and cpt arge t, fiex2 of storage compartment 23.
- Each PID controller 30 supplies an output signal which is an estimated value for the temperature control power requirement Q 0 i , ie ⁇ flexi, flexi, freezer, fridge, ie for the cooling or heating power expected for the relevant storage compartment 2, 3, 4, 23 must be supplied in order to bring it to its target temperature or to keep it there.
- a model computing unit 31 receives the as input variables
- Output variables of the model computing unit 31 are positions of the pos valve i
- Expansion valves 16, 17, 25, 26 and the speed n compr of the compressor 14 are combined in a control system 32 in the diagram of FIG.
- the model computing unit 31 calculates the evaporation temperatures in compartments 2, 23, 4, and the temperature difference between compartment and evaporator results from the refrigeration capacity and heat transfer capacity of the evaporator.
- the enthalpy of vaporization results from the evaporation temperature of the
- the condensing temperature T c can be measured; alternatively, it is estimated by the model computing unit 31 on the basis of the ambient temperature T x and the heat transfer coefficient kA c eff of the condenser, it being assumed that the heat output emitted by the condenser is equal to the The sum of the temperature control power requirements recorded by the heat exchangers 5, 6, 7, 24 is.
- the enthalpy Ah 1HX is not known a priori, here an empirical value from the past can initially be assumed, which is then iteratively specified.
- the evaporation rate in each of the heat exchangers 5, 6, 7, 24, i.e. how much refrigerant evaporates there per unit of time (or, in the case of the compartments 2, 23, possibly also condenses) results from the temperature control power requirement Q 0 i of the assigned compartment 2, 3 , 4 or 23 and the enthalpy of vaporization determined according to (2).
- the evaporating mass flow is calculated from the temperature control power requirement and the evaporation enthalpy.
- Freezer compartment 3 merges into that of the refrigerator compartment 4, a contribution Q 0 gas to the cooling effect of the
- Heat exchanger 7 supplies, and results from the heat transfer of a warming single-phase medium.
- the model computing unit 31 could now calculate and output the speed of the compressor 14 required for this in a simple embodiment and as will be explained in more detail later. In doing so, however, it would have to neglect the influence of the internal heat exchanger 22.
- the enthalpy transferred in the internal heat exchanger 22 is calculated from the difference between the high pressure temperature and the outlet temperature of the refrigerated compartment evaporator, the total mass flow and the structure of the internal heat exchanger.
- the enthalpy at the outlet of the KF evaporator is calculated as the enthalpy at the condenser outlet, the enthalpy transfer of the internal heat exchanger and the quotient of the sum of the temperature control capacities and the mass flow. This then gives the temperature at the outlet of the refrigerated compartment evaporator.
- the compressor speed is determined on the basis of the total mass flow using the suction gas density, an approach for the degree of delivery and the compressor-specific stroke volume.
- the evaporation temperatures or pressures determined from the above calculations, the specific enthalpies and thus the gas proportions at the corresponding positions in the refrigerant circuit (and, if there are parallel heat exchangers such as 5 and 24 here, the distribution of the mass flow between them) are boundary conditions for a valve model with which the model computing unit 31 calculates the correct positions of the expansion valves
- Model computing unit 31 the evaporation temperature of the assigned to the subject
- Temperature at the target temperature of the compartment gives the desired relative humidity, and regulates the speed of the fan so that the target temperature of the compartment is reached.
- this type of control can be suspended and the fan can be set in such a way that the compartment is cooled as efficiently as possible. As a rule, this will be a high fan speed, but for acoustic reasons this speed can be set lower than a specified maximum fan speed.
