Abstract
U ovoj prijavi opisan je sustav za detekciju djelomičnog ili potpunog začepljenja zrakom izmjenjivača topline ventilokonvektora. Pritom je ključno korištenje informacije o temperaturi povratnog voda izmjenjivača topline (11) ventilokonvektora (8). Navedena su dva algoritma detekcije, jedan kojim je moguće samo detektirati potpuno začepljenje i zahtijeva vrlo malo informacija o sustavu i drugi kojim je moguće detektirati i potpuno i djelomično začepljenje te zahtijeva detaljnije modele ispravnih ventilokonvektora.In this application, a system for detecting partial or total air congestion of fan coil unit heat exchanger is described.

Description
Područje tehnike na koje se izum odnosi Technical field to which the invention relates
Ovaj izum odnosi se na sustav koji omogućuje detekciju začepljenja zrakom izmjenjivača topline ventilokonvektora, njihov daljinski nadzor u tom smislu, te samim time efikasno održavanje sustava grijanja i hlađenja koji se u prostorijama zgrade oslanja na ventilokonvektore. This invention relates to a system that enables the detection of air blockage of fan coil heat exchangers, their remote monitoring in this sense, and thus efficient maintenance of the heating and cooling system that relies on fan coil units in the premises of the building.
Tehnički problem Technical problem
Prilikom ulaska određene količine zraka u instalacije za grijanje odnosno hlađenje onemogućuje se normalan protok medija za grijanje odnosno hlađenje kroz izmjenjivač topline u ventilkonvektoru ili se taj protok potpuno obustavlja. Ulazak zraka u sustav događa se prilikom intervencija na cjevovodu za dovod/odvod medija do/od pojedinačnih ventilokonvektora ili određene katne grupe uređaja, te često prilikom promjene režima iz grijanja u hlađenje ili obrnuto kada se mijenja konfiguracija sustava ili izvor/ponor topline. Prilikom otklanjanja zraka iz sustava osoblje službe održavanja zgrade do sada trebalo je obići sve ventilokonvektorske uređaje prilikom čega oni ručno ispituju prisutnost zraka odgovarajućim ventilima te po potrebi obavljaju odzračivanje. When a certain amount of air enters the heating or cooling installations, the normal flow of the heating or cooling medium through the heat exchanger in the valve convector is prevented or this flow is completely stopped. The entry of air into the system occurs during interventions on the medium supply/drainage pipeline to/from individual fan convectors or a specific floor group of devices, and often when changing the regime from heating to cooling or vice versa when the system configuration or heat source/sink is changed. Until now, when removing air from the system, building maintenance personnel have had to visit all fan coil units, during which they manually check for the presence of air with appropriate valves and, if necessary, carry out venting.
Osoblje službe održavanja u tom slučaju najčešće dolazi na poziv korisnika prostorija kojima je prethodno narušen komfor budući da kod začepljenja izmjenjivača topline ventilokonvektora grijanje/hlađenje ventilokonvektorom nije moguće, te se samim time narušava i produktivnost samih korisnika. In this case, the maintenance service staff usually comes at the request of users of rooms whose comfort has been previously impaired, since heating/cooling with the fan coil is not possible when the heat exchanger of the fan coil is blocked, and thus the productivity of the users themselves is impaired.

Izlaganje biti izuma i detaljan opis najmanje jednog od načina ostvarivanja izuma Presentation of the essence of the invention and a detailed description of at least one way of realizing the invention
Pretpostavlja se paralelno postavljene ventilokonvektore (8) gdje je svaki priključen na dovodnu (9) i odvodnu (10) cijev medija za grijanje/hlađenje (Slika 1). Sustav za detekciju pogreške ventilokonvektora sastoji se od: jednog senzora polazne temperature medija na dolaznoj cijevi (1) koji je zajednički za cijelu grupu ventilokonvektora koji se napajaju iza mjesta gdje je senzor instaliran, jednog senzora ukupnog protoka medija na dolaznoj cijevi (2), senzora temperature povratnog medija (3) montiranog na kraju izmjenjivača topline (11) u svakom ventilokonvektoru (Slika 2), uobičajenog upravljačkog uređaja za ventilokonvektor (4) kojim se regulira temperatura prostorije, a s kojeg je moguće dobiti podatak o brzini vrtnje ventilatora ventilokonvektora i temperaturi prostorije, komunikacijskog sustava (5) koji prikuplja mjerenja s temperaturnih senzora na cijevima te s upravljačkog uređaja spojenog s ventilokonvektorom podatke o brzini vrtnje ventilatora ventilokonvektora i temperaturi zraka prostorije u kojoj se nalazi ventilokonvektor, baze podataka (6) gdje se navedena mjerenja i podatci spremaju i računalne aplikacije (7) u kojoj se implementira algoritam detekcije neispravnog rada ventilokonvektora korištenjem mjerenih temperatura, mjerenog protoka i podatka o brzini vrtnje ventilatora pojedinih ventilokonvektora. It is assumed that the fan coil units (8) are placed in parallel, where each one is connected to the supply (9) and drain (10) pipe of the heating/cooling medium (Figure 1). The fan coil error detection system consists of: one medium flow temperature sensor on the incoming pipe (1) which is common to the entire group of fan coil units that are fed behind the place where the sensor is installed, one sensor of the total flow of the medium on the incoming pipe (2), a sensor the temperature of the return medium (3) mounted at the end of the heat exchanger (11) in each fan coil unit (Figure 2), the usual control device for the fan coil unit (4) which regulates the temperature of the room, and from which it is possible to obtain information about the rotation speed of the fan coil unit and the temperature of the room , the communication system (5) which collects measurements from the temperature sensors on the pipes and from the control device connected to the fan coil unit, data on the rotation speed of the fan coil unit and the air temperature of the room where the fan coil unit is located, the database (6) where the said measurements and data are stored and computer applications (7) in which the implem completes the algorithm for detecting faulty operation of fan coil units using measured temperatures, measured flow and data on fan rotation speed of individual fan coil units.
Algoritam u navedenoj aplikaciji za detekciju začepljenja zrakom može funkcionirati na način (I) da ne upotrebljava nikakav model ventilokonvektora, pri čemu je moguće detektirati potpuno začepljenje ventilokonvektora zrakom, ili (II) da upotrebljava unaprijed određeni model ventilokonvektora i ventilokonvektorskog razvoda prilikom čega je moguće odrediti i stupanj začepljenja svih ventilokonvektora zrakom. The algorithm in the mentioned application for the detection of air blockage can function in a way (I) that it does not use any model of the fan coil unit, whereby it is possible to detect a complete blockage of the fan coil unit with air, or (II) that it uses a predetermined model of the fan coil unit and the fan coil unit distribution, in which case it is possible to determine and degree of clogging of all fan convectors with air.
Algoritam je primjenjiv za slučaj kada je temperatura polaznog medija veća od 303.15 K, što je redovita situacija prilikom procesa grijanja, odnosno kada je manja od 293.15 K, što je redovita situacija prilikom procesa hlađenja. Ako je dolazni medij u temperaturnom rasponu [293.15, 303.15] K, pretpostavlja se da se radi o neaktivnom sustavu, te tada detekcija nije moguća. The algorithm is applicable for the case when the temperature of the starting medium is higher than 303.15 K, which is a regular situation during the heating process, or when it is lower than 293.15 K, which is a regular situation during the cooling process. If the incoming medium is in the temperature range [293.15, 303.15] K, it is assumed that it is an inactive system, and then detection is not possible.
Za slučaj grijanja odnosno hlađenja, detektiranim usporedbom temperature polaznog medija s graničnim vrijednostima od najmanje 303.15 K za grijanje odnosno najviše 293.15 K za hlađenje u načinu (I) začepljenje ventilokonvektora zrakom se detektira ako pri isključenom ventilatoru ventilokonvektora mjerena temperatura povratnog medija odgovara sobnoj temperaturi. Za slučaj grijanja odnosno hlađenja u načinu (II) koeficijente začepljenja svakog pojedinog ventilokonvektora određuje se primjenom estimacijskog postupka pri čemu se u neprestanom radu ventilokonvektora određuje najbolji skup vrijednosti tih koeficijenata da bi ponašanje mjerene temperature povratnih medija pojedinih ventilokonvektora čim bolje odgovaralo ponašanju modela ventilokonvektora s uvedenim koeficijentima začepljenja. In the case of heating or cooling, by comparing the detected temperature of the starting medium with the limit values of at least 303.15 K for heating or at most 293.15 K for cooling in mode (I), clogging of the fan coil unit with air is detected if, with the fan coil unit fan turned off, the measured temperature of the return medium corresponds to the room temperature. In the case of heating or cooling in mode (II), the clogging coefficients of each individual fan coil unit are determined by applying an estimation procedure, whereby the best set of values of these coefficients is determined in the continuous operation of the fan coil unit so that the behavior of the measured temperature of the return media of individual fan coil units corresponds as closely as possible to the behavior of the model of the fan coil unit with the introduced clogging coefficients.
