Description

  The present invention relates to a radiant cooling / heating system, and more particularly to a radiant cooling / heating system with improved cooling / heating efficiency.

  In recent years, a radiant cooling and heating system has attracted attention as a cooling and heating method that achieves both energy saving and comfort. A radiant cooling / heating system is a system that adjusts the temperature of a cooling / heating room by radiant heat from a ceiling surface, a floor surface, or the like that is cooled or heated by cooling a ceiling surface or a floor surface during cooling and heating it during heating. Heating and cooling by radiant heat is comfortable because extreme temperature unevenness does not occur in the room, and the amount of heat required for cooling or heating the ceiling surface, floor surface, etc. is less than that of a so-called convection type air conditioning system. For this reason, the radiation cooling and heating system can be said to be a more energy-saving system.

As an example of a radiant cooling / heating system, cold air or hot air heat medium collides with the lower surface of the floor base board and diffuses it radially to cool or heat the floor finishing material efficiently, resulting in cold radiation or temperature generated from the floor finishing material. There are some which raise the effect of radiant heat and perform floor radiant cooling and heating. This radiant air-conditioning system uses an airflow direction changer that is installed in the underfloor air supply space by flowing a heat medium horizontally to the underfloor air supply space between the concrete slab and the underfloor board. The horizontal flow is converted into the vertical flow, and the floor finish is cooled or heated by causing the heat medium to collide with the lower surface of the floor base board to perform floor radiant cooling and heating (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
JP 2004-132680 A (FIG. 1 etc.)

  Although the above-mentioned radiant cooling and heating system can provide a good radiant effect, now that the awareness of global environmental conservation has improved and the needs of users have diversified, we now offer a variety of systems that contribute to energy conservation. Doing so broadens the range of system choices and better meets the needs of the user.

  In view of the above-described problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a radiant cooling / heating system that contributes to energy saving by improving the cooling / heating efficiency.

  In order to achieve the above object, the radiant cooling and heating system according to the invention described in claim 1 includes a surface layer plate 21 and a back plate 22, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, for example.

  When comprised in this way, it has a partition panel which has a surface layer board and a backplate, and in which the heat carrier distribution space which distribute | circulates a gaseous heat medium between the surface layer board and the backplate was formed, and divides an air conditioning room. Therefore, it becomes a radiant cooling and heating system capable of efficiently transferring the heat of the heat medium to the partition panel and radiating and cooling the cooling and heating chamber. The “radiant heat” includes cold radiation (the partition panel absorbs heat when the partition panel is cooler than the cooling / heating room).

  Moreover, the radiant cooling and heating system according to the invention described in claim 2 is the radiant cooling and heating system 10 according to claim 1, for example, as shown in FIG. A plurality of inlets 22a for introducing the heat medium g into the heat medium circulation space 23 and an outlet 22b for extracting the heat medium g from the heat medium circulation space 23 are formed in the back plate 22; Of the first partition panel 20 (20A) constituting the free access floor and the inlet of the second partition panel 20 (20B) adjacent to the first partition panel 20 (20A). The chamber 31 is led to 22a.

  With this configuration, since a plurality of partition panels are arranged on the floor of the air conditioning room as free access floors, floor radiation air conditioning can be performed while piping and wiring are provided under the floor of the air conditioning room. Are provided with a chamber for guiding the heat medium to the inlet of the first partition panel constituting the free-access floor and the inlet of the second partition panel adjacent to the first partition panel. Heat medium can be supplied to the free access floor. The free access floor is a duct between the finished floor and the cabinet floor by laying multiple panels of a predetermined size on the cabinet floor (for example, concrete floor). It is an assembly type raised floor that forms a space that can be laid and wired.

  According to the present invention, the apparatus includes a partition panel that partitions the cooling / heating chamber, which has a surface layer plate and a back plate, and has a heat medium circulation space that circulates a gaseous heat medium between the surface layer plate and the back plate. Therefore, it becomes a radiant cooling and heating system capable of efficiently transferring the heat of the heat medium to the partition panel and radiating and cooling the cooling and heating chamber.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the drawings, the same or similar members are denoted by the same or similar reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

  First, with reference to FIG.1 and FIG.2, the radiation cooling / heating system 10 which concerns on embodiment of this invention is demonstrated. FIG. 1 is an overall schematic diagram of a radiant cooling and heating system 10. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line II-II in FIG. The radiant cooling and heating system 10 includes a floor panel 20 as a partition panel that partitions the cooling and heating room R, a chamber 31 that supplies air g as a heat medium to the floor panel 20, and a temperature control device 51 that adjusts the temperature of the air g. , Ducts 53, 54, 55 for guiding the air g from the temperature control device 51 to the floor panel 20 through the chamber 31, and an air distributor 40 for distributing the air g flowing through the duct 54.

  The temperature control device 51 constituting the radiant cooling / heating system 10 is typically arranged outside the cooling / heating room R, and a main duct 53 is connected to the temperature control device 51, and a plurality of sub-ducts 54 are connected to the main duct 53. Is branched. A plurality of air distributors 40 are disposed in each sub duct 54, and a flexible duct 55 is connected to the air distributor 40. The flexible duct 55 connects the air distributor 40 and the chamber 31. The chamber 31 is typically arranged at a rate of one for every four floor panels 20. The floor panel 20 is spread on the floor of the air conditioning room R to form the floor surface of the air conditioning room R. The floor of the air conditioning room R on which the floor panel 20 is spread is a free access floor. Hereinafter, each member which comprises the air conditioning room R is demonstrated in detail.

A floor panel is demonstrated with reference to FIG.3 and FIG.2. FIG. 3 is a view of the floor panel as viewed from the back plate 22 side, and (a) is a plan view. First, reference is made to FIG. 2 and FIG.
The floor panel 20 includes a surface layer plate 21 and a back plate 22. The surface layer plate 21 is a flat plate having a rectangular basic shape, and is typically a square flat plate. The back plate 22 has a flat plate whose basic shape is a rectangle (typically a square, and the back plate 22 will be described below as a square), and the entire outer periphery of the square extends perpendicular to the square surface. It is formed in a container shape. The floor panel 20 is formed by attaching the surface layer board 21 so that the back plate 22 formed in the container shape may be covered. Thereby, the floor panel 20 is hollow. The surface layer plate 21 may be fixed to the back plate 22 with screws, or may be fixed so as to be fitted into the surface layer plate 21 with claws. As each member constituting the floor panel 20, a rolled steel sheet is typically used that has been subjected to electrostatic coating. In addition, the floor panel 20 may be integrally formed by casting, extrusion molding, or the like, in addition to separately manufacturing the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 and assembling them later. The floor panel 20 has a side length of 500 mm, for example, and is formed in a flat plate shape as a whole.

  The back plate 22 has one square corner portion opened to form an introduction port 22a for introducing the air g, and a corner portion opposite to the corner portion where the introduction port 22a is formed. Thus, a lead-out port 22b through which the air g is led out is formed. The introduction port 22a and the outlet port 22b are typically circular holes, but may be rectangular or other openings. The size of the inlet 22a and the outlet 22b is, for example, about φ20 mm (in the case of a circular hole) when one side of the floor panel is 500 mm, but is not limited thereto, and the size of the air g introduced into the floor panel 20 is not limited thereto. It may be determined appropriately according to the flow rate. The introduction port 22a is preferably formed as close as possible from the apex of the corner, and is formed at least in a range where the receiving member 24 supporting the floor panel 20 contacts. The floor panel 20 is configured such that air g flows in from the inlet port 22a, flows out from the outlet port 22b through a hollow portion between the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22. As can be seen from this, a hollow portion between the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 is an air flow path 23 as a heat medium circulation space. The floor panel 20 is configured such that the heat of the air g can be transmitted to the floor panel 20 by the air g flowing through the air flow path 23.

  FIG.3 (b) is the top view seen from the back plate 22 side of the floor panel 20R which concerns on a modification. In the floor panel 20R, in addition to the outlet port 22b, the outlet panel 22c and the outlet port 22d are formed at both corner portions adjacent to the corner portion where the outlet port 22b is formed. ))). Other portions are configured in the same manner as the floor panel 20. In the floor panel 20R, the air g flowing in from the inlet 22a flows out from the outlets 22b, 22c, and 22d, so that the heat of the air g can be transmitted to the entire floor panel 20R. If there is a lead-out port where it is not desired to lead out the air g, the lead-out port may be capped.

  FIG.3 (c) is the top view seen from the back plate 22 side of the floor panel 20S which concerns on another modification. The floor panel 20 </ b> S is provided with a partition wall 28 in the air flow path 23 so that the air g meanders in the air flow path 23. The partition wall 28 is a rectangular flat plate having a length shorter than the side of the floor panel 20 </ b> S by the flow path of the air g and a width corresponding to the height of the air flow path 23. The partition wall 28 has a square side of the back plate 22 such that the side in the length direction of the flat plate contacts the square surface of the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 and the side in the width direction extends perpendicularly from the square surface of the back plate. It is attached to the surface. Other parts are configured in the same manner as the floor panel 20 (see FIG. 3A). In the floor panel 20S, the air g flowing in from the inlet 22a meanders, contacts the entire square surface of the floor panel 20S, and flows out from the outlet 22b, so that the heat of the air g is reliably transmitted to the entire floor panel 20S. can do. The partition wall 28 may be provided so that the air g flows in the air flow path 23 while turning from the outer periphery of the square surface of the floor panel 20S toward the center. In this case, the introduction port 22a is formed at one corner of the square, but the outlet 22b is formed at the center of the square.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the above-described floor panel 20 (hereinafter simply referred to as “floor panel 20” may be the floor panels 20 </ b> R and 20 </ b> S. The distance from the SL is maintained. The support leg 26 includes a receiving member 24 and a base 25.

  The receiving member 24 is typically formed of a square flat plate 24a and a cylinder 24b extending perpendicularly to the surface from the center of the flat plate 24a. When the flat plate 24a is virtually divided so that four identical squares are formed, a corner portion where the inlet 22a of the floor panel 20 is formed is placed on each of the divided portions. It has become. That is, one support leg 26 is responsible for a part of each of the four floor panels 20. The flat plate 24a may be a projection at the boundary when virtually divided. The flat plate 24a is formed with four air holes 24h that communicate with the introduction port 22a when the floor panel 20 is placed. For example, when one side of the floor panel 20 is 500 mm, the one side of the flat plate 24 a is formed to be about 80 to 100 mm. A long nut 24n into which the adjustment bolt 24v is screwed is attached to the side surface of the cylinder 24b. A through hole slightly smaller than the outer periphery of the long nut 24n is formed on the side surface of the cylinder 24b so that the adjustment bolt 24v screwed into the long nut 24n can reach the inside of the cylinder 24b.

  The base 25 is formed by a column 25s having a diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylinder 24b of the receiving member 24, and a plate 25p that vertically stands the column 25s. The column 25s is inserted into the cylinder 24b, and is configured to be able to slide in the cylinder 24b in the axial direction. By sliding the column 25s in the cylinder 24b, the distance between the surface of the slab SL and the floor panel 20 mounting surface of the receiving member 24 can be adjusted. The cylinder 25s is preferably formed with a flat surface along the length direction in order to increase the contact portion with the tip of the adjusting bolt 24v and strengthen the fixing of the receiving member 24 to the base 25. The plate 25p is typically fixed to the slab SL by an adhesive, but may be fixed by an anchor.

  The chamber 31 is formed in a container shape from which one side of the rectangular parallelepiped is removed. The chamber 31 has a removed surface that is smaller than the flat plate 24a of the receiving member 24 and has a square shape that includes all four air holes 24h formed in the flat plate 24a. The length of the surface perpendicular to the removed surface of the chamber 31 is shorter than the distance between the back plate 22 of the installed floor panel 20 and the slab SL. A connection socket 32 for connecting the duct 55 is provided on a surface perpendicular to the surface from which the chamber 31 is removed. An opening for introducing air g from the duct 55 is formed in the chamber 31 where the connection socket 32 is attached. An insertion hole 31h that is slightly larger than the diameter of the column 25s of the base 25 and that makes the gap as small as possible is formed at the center of the surface of the chamber 31 that faces the removed surface.

  The chamber 31 is attached to the support leg 26 by passing the cylinder 25s through the insertion hole 31h. In order to attach the chamber 31, first, the support leg 26 is divided into the receiving member 24 and the base 25. After passing the spring 35 through the cylinder 25s of the base 25, the insertion hole 31h is passed through the cylinder 25s so that the removed surface of the chamber 31 faces the opposite side of the spring 35. Thereafter, the receiving member 24 is attached to the base 25 so that the four air holes 24 h are included in the removed surface of the chamber 31. When the receiving member 24 is attached to the base 25, the receiving member 24 is pressed against the reaction force by the spring 35, and the adjusting bolt 24v is tightened when the receiving member 24 reaches a predetermined height. The adjustment bolt 24v is typically tightened by forming a long hole through which the adjustment bolt 24v passes in the chamber 31 in advance and scoring the long hole after positioning, but may be performed by other methods. . When the chamber 31 is used, air is simultaneously introduced into the inlet 22a (22aA) formed in one floor panel 20 (20A) and the inlet 22a (22aB) formed in the floor panel 20 (20B) adjacent thereto. g can be introduced. In the present embodiment, air g can be simultaneously introduced into the respective inlets 22a of the four floor panels 20. In addition, it is preferable to attach the sponge packing 36 to the edge of the removed surface of the chamber 31 because the gap between the chamber 31 and the receiving member 24 is reduced and air g can be prevented from leaking. Further, it is preferable to attach an elastic member such as sponge packing to the edge of the insertion hole 31h of the chamber 31 to prevent air g from leaking without disturbing sliding with the cylinder 25.

  The Coanda air distributor 40 that distributes the air g flowing in the duct will be described with reference to FIG. 4A and 4B are diagrams illustrating the Coanda air distributor 40, where FIG. 4A is a perspective view and FIG. 4B is a plan view. The Coanda air distributor 40 includes a chamber 41 and a curved member 42.

  The chamber 41 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped. In the chamber 41, a main socket 44A for connecting a duct for flowing air g is attached to one face of a rectangular parallelepiped, and a duct for flowing air g to a face 41fb facing the face 41fa to which the main socket 44A is attached. A main socket 44B is attached. The main sockets 44A and 44B are typically eccentric to the rectangular surfaces 41fa and 41fb to which the main sockets 44A and 44B are attached, approximately in the center in the direction in which the short side 41z extends, and not in the center in the direction in which the long side 41x extends. The cores of the main sockets 44A and 44B are attached so as to be arranged on one straight line. In addition, a duct through which air g flows is connected to substantially the center of the surface 41fc far from the main sockets 44A and 44B among the surfaces including the short side 41z perpendicular to the surfaces 41fa and 41fb to which the main sockets 44A and 44B are attached. A sub socket 45 is attached. A fixing piece 46 for fixing the Coanda air distributor 40 to the slab SL is attached to the chamber 41.

  The bending member 42 is provided inside the chamber 41. The bending member 42 is formed to have a curved surface 42f by bending a rectangular flat plate so that a pair of opposing sides 42a, 42b of the flat plate are brought close to each other. The sides 42a and 42b themselves maintain a straight line. The curve formed by the curved surface 42f is typically a circular arc centered on the shaft 43C in the cross section perpendicular to the shaft 43C, but the curvature changes midway like an elliptical arc. However, it is only necessary to bend gently, and such a thing is also included in the concept of an arc. The degree of curvature may be such that the central angle of the arc is 30 ° to 150 °, preferably 60 ° to 120 °, more preferably 80 ° to 100 °, typically 90 °. Two rotating plates 43A and 43B are attached so as to sandwich the curved sides of the bending member. The turning members 43A and 43B are provided with a bending member 42 so that the faces facing each other are parallel. A shaft 43C penetrating the center of each of the two rotating plates 43A and 43B is attached. The shaft 43C to which the bending member 42 and the rotating plates 43A and 43B are attached has two surfaces 41fd perpendicular to any of the surfaces 41fa, 41fb and 41fc to which the main sockets 44A and 44B and the sub socket 45 of the chamber 41 are attached. , 41fe, and is attached to the chamber 41 perpendicular to the penetrating surfaces 41fd, 41fe. The shaft 43C is substantially in the middle of the surfaces 41fa and 41fb to which the main sockets 44A and 44B are attached, and the end on the radial surface 41ff side of the rotating plates 43A and 43B is in the radial direction of the main sockets 44A and 44B. It is attached to the chamber 41 so as to be located on the surface 41fc side to which the sub socket 45 is attached than the end portion on the surface 41ff side. The bending member 42 is configured to be able to rotate around the shaft 43 </ b> C in a curved direction within the chamber 41.

  In the Coanda air distributor 40 configured as described above, a part of the air g about to flow from the main socket 44A to the main socket 44B is captured by the bending member 42. The air g trapped in the curved member 42 flows along the curved surface 42f by the Coanda effect (the property of the fluid that changes the flow direction along the object when the object is placed in the flow), and the subsocket 45 Change direction to flow toward. At this time, since the air g flows along the curved surface 42f, the pressure loss when the air g changes the flow direction is reduced, and the air g flowing between the main sockets 44A and 44B is derived from the sub socket 45. Can be distributed efficiently. The air g not captured by the bending member 42 is led out from the main socket 44B. In addition, the flow rate of the air g distributed to the subsocket 45 side can be adjusted by rotating the bending member 42 via the rotation plates 43A and 43B and the shaft 43C.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the sub socket 45 of the Coanda air distributor 40 and the connection socket 32 provided in the chamber 31 are connected via a flexible duct 55. A sub duct 54 is connected to the main sockets 44 </ b> A and 44 </ b> B of the Coanda air distributor 40. However, the main socket 44B of the Coanda air distributor 40 located at the end of one sub duct 54 is closed with a cap or the like. The sub duct 54 connected to the main socket 44 </ b> A of the Coanda air distributor 40 located at the uppermost stream of one sub duct 54 is connected to the main duct 53.

  As the temperature control device 51, a package type air conditioner, an air handling unit, or the like is preferably used. The temperature control device 51 exchanges heat with a fluid flowing in a coil (not shown) so as to cool the air g when the air conditioning room R is cooled, and warm the air g when the air conditioning room R is heated. It is configured. A main duct 53 is connected to the temperature control device 51.

  Next, the operation of the air conditioning system 10 will be described with reference mainly to FIGS. 1 and 2 and with reference to FIG. 4 as appropriate. The air g as a heat medium is distributed to a plurality of sub-ducts 54 through the main duct 53 after the temperature is adjusted by the temperature control device 51. The air g flowing into the sub duct 54 then flows into the Coanda air distributor 40. In the Coanda air distributor 40, a part of the air g that flows in flows out from the sub socket 45 to the flexible duct 55, and the rest flows out from the main socket 44B to the sub duct 54. The air g flowing out from the main socket 44B is further distributed by the next Coanda air distributor 40, and this is repeated as necessary. On the other hand, the air g flowing out from the sub socket 45 flows into the chamber 31 through the flexible duct 55.

  The air g flowing into the chamber 31 simultaneously flows into the air flow paths 23 of the floor panels 20 from the inlets 22a of the four floor panels 20. The air g flowing into the air flow path 23 dissipates heat to the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 to warm the floor panel 20 (during heating), or absorbs heat from the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 to cool the floor panel 20 ( Air conditioning). Then, the cooling / heating room R is cooled or heated by radiant heat from the warmed or cooled floor panel 20. The air g that radiates heat to the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 or absorbs heat from the surface layer plate 21 and the back plate 22 flows out from the outlet 22b of the floor panel 20 and is formed under the floor of the air conditioning room R. Then, it flows into the temperature control device 51 again, and after the temperature is adjusted, it is distributed to the plurality of sub ducts 54 through the main duct 53, and the same operation as described above is repeated. In addition to this radiant cooling and heating, the air g that has flowed out of the outlet 22b of the floor panel 20 into the underfloor chamber is introduced into the cooling and heating room R, collected after being convected and cooled or heated, and the collected air g May be returned to the temperature control device 51.

  In the above description, the receiving member 24 is described as having a square flat plate 24a. However, even if the flat plate 24a of the receiving member 24 is a rectangle, a polygon other than a quadrangle, a circle or an ellipse, The receiving member 24 can support the floor panel 20, and an air hole 24 h communicating with the introduction port 22 a of the floor panel 20 may be formed. Although the chamber 31 is described as being formed in a rectangular parallelepiped container shape, it can include the inlet 22a of the adjacent floor panel 20, and the air g leaks when it contacts the flat plate 24a of the receiving member 24. If not, it may be formed in a cylindrical container shape.

  In the above description, the radiation surface is formed on the floor surface of the air conditioning room R by disposing the floor panel 20, but the partition in which the heat medium circulation space is formed on the ceiling surface or wall surface of the air conditioning room R. A panel may be provided and the ceiling surface or wall surface may be a radiation surface.
