Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sanitary water storage and heating system for a sanitary water distribution installation.
  • the invention relates to a storage and heating system comprising a thermodynamic heating device for heating sanitary water present in the storage tank.
  • This storage and heating system is, for example, a combined device for heating sanitary water and heating water for a room, commonly called a “dual-service heat pump”.
  • thermodynamic heating device is a device whose operation is based on a thermodynamic loop, in which a compressor is connected to a condenser itself connected to an expansion valve, itself connected to an evaporator, which is connected to the compressor, which close the loop.
  • a working fluid circulates which is set in motion and compressed in the compressor, then undergoes condensation in the condenser before being expanded in the expansion valve and finally undergoes evaporation in the evaporator.
  • the evaporator and the condenser are heat exchangers, in each of which the working fluid partially exchanges its thermal energy with another fluid.
  • the evaporator allows heat exchange between the working fluid and a cold source. This cold source is for example outside air in a so-called “air/water” heat pump. Outside air means air outside the building in which the heating appliance is installed or air from an unheated technical room inside this building.
  • the water is heated by means of the condenser by the condensation of the working fluid which gives it its thermal energy.
  • the sanitary water can be heated directly by the condenser or indirectly via a fluid circuit between the condenser and a heat exchanger heating the sanitary water.
  • the fluid circuit can be a circuit of heating water heated by the condenser and then heating the sanitary water of the storage system and heating.
  • This heat exchanger of the storage and heating system is for example arranged outside or inside a water storage tank intended to supply hot water to a room.
  • a temperature sensor is generally placed in the tank and makes it possible to determine the level of hot sanitary water.
  • the temperature sensor is generally arranged in a middle position so as to be close to the interface between the volume of hot sanitary water and the volume of cold sanitary water.
  • the exact position of the temperature sensor depends on the exact configuration of the storage and heating system.
  • thermodynamic loop of the thermodynamic heating device is all the more important as the temperature of the volume of water present in the tank is low.
  • the colder the water inside the tank the better the efficiency of the heating device.
  • thermodynamic heating device causes a mixing of sanitary water over the entire height of the heat exchanger. If this volume of sanitary water is partially hot when the thermodynamic heating device starts up, this mixing will cause a rise in the temperature of the sanitary water in contact with the heat exchanger. The performance of the thermodynamic loop will therefore deteriorate. This degradation in performance leads to an increase in energy consumption and therefore in cost for users.
  • thermodynamic heating device It is thus difficult to guarantee the needs of the users, in particular by anticipation, while benefiting from satisfactory performance of the thermodynamic heating device.
  • the ideal way to guarantee user comfort would be to maintain the entire capacity of the tank at the set temperature in order to have a maximum reserve of hot sanitary water. Nevertheless, this solution leads to high energy consumption and would require the thermodynamic loop to operate under conditions in which it performs poorly.
  • the member for determining information relating to the volume of sanitary water entering the storage tank makes it possible to know precisely the volume of sanitary water drawn in and therefore the volume of hot sanitary water remaining in the storage tank.
  • the heating of the sanitary water, therefore the starting of the thermodynamic heating device, can thus be triggered only when the needs of the users so require.
  • the information determined by the determination member can be either relative to the volume of sanitary water entering or leaving the storage tank because these two volumes of sanitary water are identical.
  • the temperature measuring device no longer has the function of detecting the level of hot sanitary water, as in the state of the art, but to indicate the temperature of the remaining volume of domestic hot water.
  • This modification of the function of the temperature measuring device releases the constraints associated with its position in the storage tank. It is thus possible to move this temperature measuring member to improve the temperature measurement.
  • the more the temperature measuring device is arranged in the upper part of the storage tank the more the temperature measuring device is able to indicate precisely the temperature of the volume of hot sanitary water remaining. This is obtained because the temperature measuring device is closer to the draw-off point and further away from the hot water/cold water gradient which can falsify the temperature measurement.
  • the association of the information relating to the volume of sanitary water entering or leaving the storage tank with the temperature of the sanitary water makes it possible to know exactly the quantity of energy remaining in the storage tank. Indeed, it is possible to know if a remaining volume of sanitary water is at 40°C or at 55°C. For example, it is more advantageous to have a remaining domestic water volume of 100L at 55°C than 100L at 40°C.

  • a manual trigger corresponds to a command from the user.
  • Programmed or manual triggering replaces the process of determination of the triggering of the domestic water heater described in connection with the picture 3 , even if the conditions for triggering a domestic water heater are not met.
  • the heating modes that can be triggered by the controller 60 are an extended heating mode 230, a rapid heating mode 240 and a gradual heating mode 250.
  • This process is preferably implemented by the controller 60 following the triggering 120 of a sanitary water heater.
  • This triggering 120 can either come from the process of determining the picture 3 either a programmed or manual trigger.
  • the controller 60 first begins by determining 200 whether the heating and/or cooling fluid circuit is in operation.
  • the rapid heating mode is triggered.
  • the outdoor air temperature is determined 205.
  • the controller 60 determines 210 if the outside air temperature is above the optimization threshold value.
  • the controller 60 triggers 230 the extended heating mode. Indeed, if the outside air temperature is greater than or equal to this optimization threshold value, the outside temperature conditions make it possible to benefit from good performance of the thermodynamic heating device 13.
  • the speed of the compressor can be chosen as low to benefit from the increased performance of the refrigeration circuit under these conditions.
  • the controller 60 determines 220 whether the outdoor air temperature has reached the critical threshold value for optimization.
  • the controller 60 triggers 240 a rapid heating mode.
  • the speed of the compressor is preferably high to speed up the heating of the sanitary water.
  • the controller 60 triggers 250 the progressive heating mode.
  • the process for determining the domestic water heating mode can be devoid of the determination step 200 when the storage and heating system does not have or is not coupled to a heating circuit and/ or cooling.
  • the determination process begins directly with the determination of the outside air temperature.
  • the three extended, rapid and progressive heating modes can also be implemented.
  • the invention provides the following items:
