Description

本発明は、間膨式の空調手段と直膨式の空調手段を備え同一室内の空調を行う空調システムに関するものである。     The present invention relates to an air conditioning system that includes an inflating air conditioning unit and a direct expansion air conditioning unit to perform air conditioning in the same room.

従来より、同一室内の複数領域を空気調和する複数の空調手段を備えた空調システムが知られている。例えば特許文献1の空調システムは、室内のペリメータゾーンを加湿する第1調湿装置と、室内のインテリアゾーンを加湿する第2調湿装置と、室内のペリメータゾーンを冷暖房する第1空調機と、室内のインテリアゾーンを冷暖房する第2空調機とを備えているものである。
特開2006−329600号公報
Conventionally, an air conditioning system provided with a plurality of air conditioning means for air-conditioning a plurality of areas in the same room is known. For example, the air conditioning system of Patent Document 1 includes a first humidity control device that humidifies an indoor perimeter zone, a second humidity control device that humidifies an indoor interior zone, a first air conditioner that cools and heats an indoor perimeter zone, And a second air conditioner for cooling and heating the interior zone of the room.
JP 2006-329600 A

ところで、上述したような空調システムでは、第1空調機として冷媒が循環し蒸気圧縮式冷凍サイクルを行う冷媒回路を備えたもの、いわゆる直膨式のものが用いられ、第2空調機の熱源として例えばチラー等の間膨式のものが用いられることがよくある。そして、このようなシステムでは、第1空調機および第2空調機の双方で冷房運転を行う場合、インテリアゾーンの冷房負荷の減少に対して、第2空調機では冷水供給温度を上昇させるなどして熱源の省エネ性を良くすることができるが、第1空調機では蒸発温度が一定で制御され冷房負荷の変動に対応していなかった。そのため、システム全体の省エネ性を改善する余地が残されていた。     By the way, in the air conditioning system as described above, a so-called direct expansion type is used as the first air conditioner, which is provided with a refrigerant circuit in which the refrigerant circulates and performs a vapor compression refrigeration cycle. For example, an inflatable type such as a chiller is often used. In such a system, when both the first air conditioner and the second air conditioner perform cooling operation, the second air conditioner increases the chilled water supply temperature in response to a decrease in the cooling load in the interior zone. Although the energy saving performance of the heat source can be improved, in the first air conditioner, the evaporating temperature is controlled at a constant level and does not cope with the fluctuation of the cooling load. Therefore, there is room for improving the energy saving performance of the entire system.

本発明は、かかる点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、第1ゾーンを間膨式の第1空調機で冷房し、第1ゾーンと同一室内の第2ゾーンを直膨式の空調機で冷房する場合に、冷房負荷の変動に対応可能とし省エネ性を向上させることにある。     The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and an object of the present invention is to cool the first zone with an inflatable first air conditioner and to directly expand the second zone in the same room as the first zone. When cooling with an air conditioner, it is possible to cope with fluctuations in the cooling load and to improve energy saving.

第1の発明は、冷却液が供給され、該冷却液と空気が熱交換して該空気を冷却する冷却手段(22)を備えた第1空調手段(5)と、蒸気圧縮式冷凍サイクルを行う冷媒回路の冷媒と空気が熱交換して冷媒が蒸発し空気を冷却する第2空調手段(6)とを備え、上記第1空調手段(5)および第2空調手段(6)がそれぞれ同一室内における第1ゾーンおよび第2ゾーンの空調を行う空調システムを前提としている。そして、本発明の空調システムは、上記第1空調手段(5)および第2空調手段(6)が共に冷房運転を行う場合、上記第1空調手段(5)の冷房負荷に応じて、上記第2空調手段(6)における冷媒の蒸発温度の設定値を変更する変更手段(50)を備えているものである。     The first aspect of the present invention includes a first air-conditioning means (5) provided with a cooling means (22), which is supplied with a cooling liquid and heat-exchanges the cooling liquid and air to cool the air, and a vapor compression refrigeration cycle. And a second air conditioning means (6) for exchanging heat between the refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit to be performed and air to evaporate the refrigerant to cool the air, and the first air conditioning means (5) and the second air conditioning means (6) are the same. An air conditioning system that performs air conditioning in the first zone and the second zone in the room is assumed. In the air conditioning system of the present invention, when both the first air conditioning means (5) and the second air conditioning means (6) perform a cooling operation, the first air conditioning means (5) and the second air conditioning means (5) are arranged in accordance with the cooling load of the first air conditioning means (5). 2 A change means (50) for changing the set value of the evaporation temperature of the refrigerant in the air conditioning means (6) is provided.

上記第1の発明では、第1ゾーンが第1空調手段(5)によって冷房や暖房が行われ、第2ゾーンが第2空調手段(6)によって冷房や暖房が行われる。そして、両方の空調手段(5,6)で冷房運転が行われる場合、第1空調手段(5)の冷房負荷に応じて第2空調手段(6)の蒸発温度設定値が変更される。例えば、第1空調手段(5)の冷房負荷が減少すると、第2空調手段(6)の蒸発温度設定値が増大される。これにより、第2ゾーンでは供給空気温度が上昇する。つまり、本発明では、第1ゾーンの冷房負荷の変動に連動して第2空調手段(6)の蒸発温度設定値が変更される。     In the first aspect of the invention, the first zone is cooled and heated by the first air conditioning means (5), and the second zone is cooled and heated by the second air conditioning means (6). And when cooling operation is performed by both air-conditioning means (5, 6), the evaporation temperature set value of the second air-conditioning means (6) is changed according to the cooling load of the first air-conditioning means (5). For example, when the cooling load of the first air conditioning means (5) decreases, the evaporation temperature set value of the second air conditioning means (6) is increased. As a result, the supply air temperature rises in the second zone. That is, in the present invention, the evaporating temperature setting value of the second air conditioning means (6) is changed in conjunction with the change in the cooling load of the first zone.

第2の発明は、上記第1の発明において、上記第1空調手段(5)は、上記冷却手段(22)による空気の冷却温度が所定値となるように上記冷却手段(22)への冷却液の供給量を調節する流量調整弁(26)と、上記第1ゾーンの温度とその設定温度との温度差に応じて上記冷却手段(22)から上記第1ゾーンへの空気供給量を調節する風量調節手段(14)とを備えている。そして、上記変更手段(50)は、上記流量調整弁(26)の開度に応じて上記第2空調手段(6)における冷媒の蒸発温度の設定値を変更するものである。     In a second aspect based on the first aspect, the first air conditioning means (5) is configured to cool the cooling means (22) so that the cooling temperature of the air by the cooling means (22) becomes a predetermined value. The flow rate adjusting valve (26) for adjusting the liquid supply amount and the air supply amount from the cooling means (22) to the first zone according to the temperature difference between the temperature of the first zone and the set temperature. Air volume adjusting means (14) for The changing means (50) changes the set value of the refrigerant evaporation temperature in the second air conditioning means (6) according to the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (26).

上記第2の発明では、第1ゾーンの冷房負荷が減少すると、即ち第1ゾーンの温度(室温)とその設定温度との温度差が小さくなると、冷却手段(22)から第1ゾーンへの空気供給量が減少される。その減少した分だけ、冷却手段(22)における空気量も減少するため、冷却手段(22)による空気の冷却温度が低下する。そうすると、空気の冷却温度を所定値まで上昇させるように、流量調整弁(26)の開度が減少されて冷却手段(22)への冷却液の供給量が減少される。そして、減少後の流量調整弁(26)の開度に応じて第2空調手段(6)の蒸発温度設定値が所定量だけ増大される。     In the second aspect of the invention, when the cooling load of the first zone decreases, that is, when the temperature difference between the temperature of the first zone (room temperature) and the set temperature becomes small, the air from the cooling means (22) to the first zone Supply is reduced. The amount of air in the cooling means (22) is also reduced by the reduced amount, so that the cooling temperature of the air by the cooling means (22) is lowered. Then, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) is decreased so that the cooling temperature of the air is increased to a predetermined value, and the supply amount of the coolant to the cooling means (22) is decreased. Then, the evaporation temperature set value of the second air conditioning means (6) is increased by a predetermined amount according to the opening of the flow rate adjusting valve (26) after the decrease.

本発明によれば、第1空調手段(5)および第2空調手段(6)の双方が冷房運転を行う場合、第1空調手段(5)の冷房負荷に応じて第2空調手段(6)の蒸発温度設定値を変更するようにした。したがって、第1空調手段(5)の冷房負荷が減少した場合、蒸発温度設定値を増大させることができる。第2空調手段(6)の冷凍サイクルにおいて蒸発温度が増大すると、COP(成績係数)が向上する。よって、システムの省エネを図ることができる。     According to the present invention, when both the first air conditioning means (5) and the second air conditioning means (6) perform the cooling operation, the second air conditioning means (6) according to the cooling load of the first air conditioning means (5). The evaporating temperature setting value was changed. Therefore, when the cooling load of the first air conditioning means (5) decreases, the evaporating temperature set value can be increased. When the evaporation temperature increases in the refrigeration cycle of the second air conditioning means (6), COP (coefficient of performance) is improved. Therefore, energy saving of the system can be achieved.

また、第1ゾーンの冷房負荷が減少しても第2空調手段(6)の蒸発温度設定値が増大変更されないと第2ゾーンでは比較的低い温度の空気が供給され続ける。そうすると、その低温の空気が第1ゾーンへ流れ込み、第1ゾーンではドラフトにより快適性が損なわれる。ところが、本発明では、蒸発温度設定値が増大変更されるため、第2ゾーンにおける供給空気温度が上昇する。これにより、第2ゾーンから第1ゾーンへの空気の流れ込みを防止でき、快適性を向上させることができる。     Further, even if the cooling load in the first zone is reduced, relatively low temperature air continues to be supplied in the second zone unless the evaporating temperature set value of the second air conditioning means (6) is increased or changed. Then, the low-temperature air flows into the first zone, and comfort is impaired by the draft in the first zone. However, in the present invention, since the evaporating temperature set value is increased and changed, the supply air temperature in the second zone rises. Thereby, the inflow of air from the second zone to the first zone can be prevented, and comfort can be improved.

以下、本発明の実施形態を図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。なお、以下の実施形態は、本質的に好ましい例示であって、本発明、その適用物、あるいはその用途の範囲を制限することを意図するものではない。     Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

And the cooling capability and heating capability in a chilled water coil (22) etc. are adjusted by the opening degree change of the flow regulating valve (26, 27) mentioned above. The humidifier (24) is supplied with steam for humidification.

このように、本実施形態のインテリア空調系統(5)は、熱源機によって冷却または加熱された熱媒体(水)が空気と熱交換して該空気を冷却または加熱するものである。つまり、インテリア空調系統(5)はいわゆる間膨式の空調装置で構成されている。     Thus, the interior air conditioning system (5) of this embodiment cools or heats a heat medium (water) cooled or heated by a heat source machine to exchange heat with air. That is, the interior air conditioning system (5) is constituted by a so-called interstitial air conditioner.

上記還気系統(30)は、還気流路(31)を備えている。還気流路(31)は、流入端である一端が室内のインテリアゾーンに接続され、流出端である他端が空調機(20)の上流側に接続されている。つまり、本実施形態の還気系統(30)では、排出されたインテリアゾーンの空気が空調機(20)で調和された後、再びインテリアゾーンへ供給される。     The return air system (30) includes a return air channel (31). The return air flow path (31) has one end that is an inflow end connected to an interior zone in the room and the other end that is an outflow end connected to the upstream side of the air conditioner (20). That is, in the return air system (30) of the present embodiment, the exhausted air in the interior zone is conditioned by the air conditioner (20) and then supplied to the interior zone again.

上記還気流路(31)には、可変風量装置(33)と温度センサ(32)が設けられている。可変風量装置(33)は、給気系統(10)のものと同様、還気流路(31)の空気流量(風量)が一定となるように、風速センサの計測値に基づいてバルブの開度が調節される。温度センサ(32)は、空気温度を検出するためのもので、可変風量装置(33)の上流側に設けられている。     The return air flow path (31) is provided with a variable air volume device (33) and a temperature sensor (32). As with the air supply system (10), the variable air volume device (33) opens the valve based on the measured value of the wind speed sensor so that the air flow rate (air volume) in the return air passage (31) is constant. Is adjusted. The temperature sensor (32) is for detecting the air temperature, and is provided on the upstream side of the variable air volume device (33).

一方、上記ペリメータ空調系統(6)は、室外機(41)と室内機(42)を備えている。室外機(41)と室内機(42)とは、いわゆる直膨式の冷凍装置を構成している。     On the other hand, the perimeter air conditioning system (6) includes an outdoor unit (41) and an indoor unit (42). The outdoor unit (41) and the indoor unit (42) constitute a so-called direct expansion refrigeration apparatus.

図示しないが、室外機(41)には圧縮機や膨張機構、室外熱交換器、室外ファンが設けられ、室内機(42)には室内熱交換器や室内ファンが設けられている。そして、これら圧縮機、室外熱交換器、膨張機構および室内熱交換器が配管接続されて冷媒回路を構成している。冷媒回路では、冷媒が可逆に循環して蒸気圧縮式冷凍サイクルが行われる。     Although not shown, the outdoor unit (41) is provided with a compressor, an expansion mechanism, an outdoor heat exchanger, and an outdoor fan, and the indoor unit (42) is provided with an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan. The compressor, the outdoor heat exchanger, the expansion mechanism, and the indoor heat exchanger are connected by piping to form a refrigerant circuit. In the refrigerant circuit, the refrigerant is reversibly circulated to perform a vapor compression refrigeration cycle.

上記室外熱交換器では室外ファンによって取り込まれた室外空気が冷媒と熱交換し、室内熱交換器では室内ファンによって取り込まれたペリメータゾーンの室内空気が冷媒と熱交換する。そして、ペリメータ空調系統(6)では、冷媒回路の冷媒循環方向を切り換えることにより、冷房運転と暖房運転とが切り換わる。冷房運転では、室外熱交換器が凝縮器として機能し且つ室内熱交換器が蒸発器として機能し、室内熱交換器で冷却された空気がペリメータゾーンに供給される。暖房運転では、室外熱交換器が蒸発器として機能し且つ室内熱交換器が凝縮器として機能し、室内熱交換器で加熱された空気がペリメータゾーンに供給される。     In the outdoor heat exchanger, outdoor air taken in by the outdoor fan exchanges heat with the refrigerant, and in the indoor heat exchanger, indoor air in the perimeter zone taken in by the indoor fan exchanges heat with the refrigerant. In the perimeter air conditioning system (6), the cooling operation and the heating operation are switched by switching the refrigerant circulation direction of the refrigerant circuit. In the cooling operation, the outdoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser and the indoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator, and air cooled by the indoor heat exchanger is supplied to the perimeter zone. In the heating operation, the outdoor heat exchanger functions as an evaporator and the indoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser, and air heated by the indoor heat exchanger is supplied to the perimeter zone.

上記コントローラ(50)は、インテリア空調系統(5)およびペリメータ空調系統(6)を制御するもので、本発明に係る変更手段である。コントローラ(50)には、温湿度センサ(13)および温度センサ(32)の検出信号や、流量調整弁(26,27,28)の開度信号が入力される。また、コントローラ(50)は、給気ファン(25)の制御を行ったり、可変風量装置(14,33)に対し設定風量の信号を出力する。また、コントローラ(50)は、運転状態に基づいて室内熱交換器における冷媒の蒸発温度設定値または凝縮温度設定値を変更するように構成されている。コントローラ(50)の詳細な制御動作については後述する。     The controller (50) controls the interior air conditioning system (5) and the perimeter air conditioning system (6), and is a changing means according to the present invention. The controller (50) receives detection signals from the temperature / humidity sensor (13) and the temperature sensor (32) and an opening signal of the flow rate adjustment valve (26, 27, 28). The controller (50) controls the air supply fan (25) and outputs a signal of the set air volume to the variable air volume device (14, 33). The controller (50) is configured to change the evaporating temperature set value or the condensing temperature set value of the refrigerant in the indoor heat exchanger based on the operating state. Detailed control operation of the controller (50) will be described later.

−運転動作−
次に、この空調システム(1)の運転動作について説明する。インテリア空調系統(5)では、冷房運転と暖房運転と加湿運転とが切換可能に構成されている。ペリメータ空調系統(6)では、冷房運転と暖房運転とが切換可能に構成されている。ここでは、代表して、インテリア空調系統(5)およびペリメータ空調系統(6)の双方とも冷房運転を行う「第1運転パターン」と、インテリア空調系統(5)が加湿運転を行い且つペリメータ空調系統(6)が冷房運転を行う「第2運転パターン」と、インテリア空調系統(5)が冷房運転を行い且つペリメータ空調系統(6)が暖房運転を行う「第3運転パターン」の3つの運転パターンにおけるコントローラ(50)の制御動作について順に説明する。
-Driving action-
Next, the operation of the air conditioning system (1) will be described. The interior air conditioning system (5) is configured to be able to switch between a cooling operation, a heating operation, and a humidifying operation. The perimeter air conditioning system (6) is configured to be switchable between a cooling operation and a heating operation. Here, representatively, the “first operation pattern” in which both the interior air conditioning system (5) and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) perform the cooling operation, and the interior air conditioning system (5) performs the humidifying operation and the perimeter air conditioning system. Three operation patterns, “second operation pattern” in which (6) performs cooling operation and “third operation pattern” in which the interior air conditioning system (5) performs cooling operation and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) performs heating operation. The control operation of the controller (50) in FIG.

〈第1運転パターンの制御〉
この第1運転パターンは、インテリア空調系統(5)およびペリメータ空調系統(6)の双方において冷房運転が行われる。この運転パターンは特に夏場に行われる。
<Control of the first operation pattern>
In the first operation pattern, the cooling operation is performed in both the interior air conditioning system (5) and the perimeter air conditioning system (6). This driving pattern is performed especially in summer.

インテリア空調系統(5)の冷房運転では、室外空気が空調機(20)へ流入する。空調機(20)では、室外空気がフィルタ(21)を通過した後、冷水コイル(22)で冷却される。冷却された空気は、温水コイル(23)および加湿器(24)を順に通過して空調機(20)から流出し、室内のインテリアゾーンに供給される。これにより、インテリアゾーンの冷房が行われる。また、インテリアゾーンの室内空気は、還気流路(31)を通じて空調機(20)に流入し、室外空気と合流する。合流した空気は上述したように冷水コイル(22)で冷却された後、インテリアゾーンに供給される。なお、温水コイル(23)および加湿器(24)の各流量調整弁(27,28)は全閉状態である。     In the cooling operation of the interior air conditioning system (5), outdoor air flows into the air conditioner (20). In the air conditioner (20), outdoor air passes through the filter (21) and is then cooled by the cold water coil (22). The cooled air sequentially passes through the hot water coil (23) and the humidifier (24) and flows out of the air conditioner (20), and is supplied to the indoor interior zone. Thereby, the interior zone is cooled. The room air in the interior zone flows into the air conditioner (20) through the return air flow path (31) and merges with the outdoor air. The combined air is cooled by the cold water coil (22) as described above, and then supplied to the interior zone. Note that the flow rate adjustment valves (27, 28) of the hot water coil (23) and the humidifier (24) are fully closed.

一方、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷房運転では、ペリメータゾーンの室内空気が室内機(42)に取り込まれ、室内熱交換器で冷媒と熱交換して冷却され、その後ペリメータゾーンに供給される。これにより、ペリメータゾーンの冷房が行われる。室内熱交換器では、冷媒が室内空気と熱交換して蒸発温度設定値で蒸発する。なお、室外機(41)では、取り込まれた室外空気が室外熱交換器で冷媒と熱交換し、冷媒が凝縮する。     On the other hand, in the cooling operation of the perimeter air conditioning system (6), the indoor air in the perimeter zone is taken into the indoor unit (42), is cooled by exchanging heat with the refrigerant in the indoor heat exchanger, and then supplied to the perimeter zone. Thereby, the perimeter zone is cooled. In the indoor heat exchanger, the refrigerant exchanges heat with room air and evaporates at the evaporation temperature set value. In the outdoor unit (41), the taken outdoor air exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the outdoor heat exchanger, and the refrigerant condenses.

この第1運転パターンにおいて、コントローラ(50)は図2に示すような制御動作を行う。コントローラ(50)は、給気系統(10)の可変風量装置(14)の制御を行う(ステップST1)。具体的に、可変風量装置(14)は、インテリアゾーンの室温設定値と室温センサ(15)の検出温度との温度差に応じて予め定められた風量となるようにダンパ開度が制御される。可変風量装置(14)の風量は温度差が大きいほど増大するように定められている。     In this first operation pattern, the controller (50) performs a control operation as shown in FIG. The controller (50) controls the variable air volume device (14) of the air supply system (10) (step ST1). Specifically, in the variable air volume device (14), the damper opening degree is controlled so that the air volume is predetermined according to the temperature difference between the room temperature set value of the interior zone and the detected temperature of the room temperature sensor (15). . The air volume of the variable air volume device (14) is determined to increase as the temperature difference increases.

次いで、コントローラ(50)は、給気ファン(25)の風量制御を行う(ステップST2)。具体的に、給気ファン(25)は、可変風量装置(14)の風量に基づいて風量制御される。給気ファン(25)の風量は、可変風量装置(14)の風量が多いほど多くなる。     Next, the controller (50) performs air volume control of the air supply fan (25) (step ST2). Specifically, the air supply fan (25) is air volume controlled based on the air volume of the variable air volume device (14). The air volume of the air supply fan (25) increases as the air volume of the variable air volume device (14) increases.

次いで、コントローラ(50)は、冷水コイル(22)用の流量調整弁(26)の開度制御を行う(ステップST3)。具体的に、流量調整弁(26)は、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が所定値となるように開度が制御される。つまり、給気ファン(25)の吹出温度が所定値となるように流量調整弁(26)の開度が調節される。例えば、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が所定値よりも低いときは流量調整弁(26)の開度が減少され、冷水コイル(22)における冷水の供給量が減少される。逆に、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が所定値よりも高いときは流量調整弁(26)の開度が増加され、冷水コイル(22)における冷水の供給量が増加される。     Next, the controller (50) controls the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) for the cold water coil (22) (step ST3). Specifically, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (26) is controlled so that the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) becomes a predetermined value. That is, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (26) is adjusted so that the temperature of the supply air fan (25) is a predetermined value. For example, when the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) is lower than a predetermined value, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) is reduced, and the amount of cold water supplied to the cold water coil (22) is reduced. Conversely, when the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) is higher than a predetermined value, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) is increased, and the amount of cold water supplied to the cold water coil (22) is increased.

ここで、インテリアゾーンの冷房負荷が減少した場合を考える。インテリアゾーンの冷房負荷が減少すると、室温設定値と室温センサ(15)の検出温度との温度差が小さくなる。そうすると、可変風量装置(14)の風量が減少され、それに伴い給気ファン(25)の風量も減少される。給気ファン(25)の風量が減少すると、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が低下する。つまり、給気ファン(25)の風量が減少すると、冷水コイル(22)において空気量が減少し、その減少した分だけ空気に対する冷却度が増大する。温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が低下すると、その検出温度が所定値まで上昇するように流量調整弁(26)の開度が減少される。そうすると、コントローラ(50)は、減少した流量調整弁(26)の開度に基づいてペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷媒の蒸発温度設定値を変更する(ステップST4)。具体的には、減少後の流量調整弁(26)の開度に相当する所定量だけ蒸発温度設定値が増大される。蒸発温度設定値が増大すると、室内機(42)からの空気の供給温度が上昇する。つまり、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷房能力が低下する。     Here, consider a case where the cooling load of the interior zone is reduced. When the cooling load in the interior zone decreases, the temperature difference between the room temperature set value and the temperature detected by the room temperature sensor (15) decreases. Then, the air volume of the variable air volume device (14) is reduced, and accordingly, the air volume of the air supply fan (25) is also reduced. When the air volume of the supply fan (25) decreases, the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) decreases. That is, when the air volume of the air supply fan (25) decreases, the air volume decreases in the cold water coil (22), and the degree of cooling with respect to the air increases by the decreased amount. When the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) decreases, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) is decreased so that the detected temperature increases to a predetermined value. Then, the controller (50) changes the refrigerant evaporation temperature set value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) based on the decreased opening of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) (step ST4). Specifically, the evaporation temperature set value is increased by a predetermined amount corresponding to the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (26) after the decrease. When the evaporation temperature set value increases, the supply temperature of air from the indoor unit (42) increases. That is, the cooling capacity of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) decreases.

逆に、インテリアゾーンの冷房負荷が増大すると、室温設定値と室温センサ(15)の検出温度との温度差が大きくなり、可変風量装置(14)の風量が増大され、それに伴い給気ファン(25)の風量も増大される。給気ファン(25)の風量が増大すると、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が上昇し、流量調整弁(26)の開度が増加される。そうすると、増加後の流量調整弁(26)の開度に相当する所定量だけ蒸発温度設定値が減少され、室内機(42)からの空気の供給温度が低下し、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷房能力が増大する。     Conversely, when the cooling load in the interior zone increases, the temperature difference between the room temperature set value and the temperature detected by the room temperature sensor (15) increases, the air volume of the variable air volume device (14) increases, and the air supply fan ( The air volume of 25) is also increased. When the air volume of the supply fan (25) increases, the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) rises and the opening of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) increases. Then, the evaporating temperature set value is decreased by a predetermined amount corresponding to the opening degree of the increased flow regulating valve (26), the supply temperature of air from the indoor unit (42) is lowered, and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) Increases cooling capacity.

このように、コントローラ(50)は、流量調整弁(26)の開度をもってインテリアゾーンにおける冷房負荷の減少または増大を判断し、それに基づいてペリメータゾーンにおける冷房負荷を推定しペリメータ空調系統(6)の蒸発温度設定値を増減させる。つまり、第1運転パターンでは、インテリア空調系統(5)の冷房負荷の増減に伴い、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の蒸発温度設定値を増減させてペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷房能力を増減させるようにした。これにより、ペリメータ空調系統(6)を冷房負荷に応じて能力を変更することができるので、システム全体の省エネ化を図ることができる。     As described above, the controller (50) determines the decrease or increase of the cooling load in the interior zone based on the opening degree of the flow regulating valve (26), and estimates the cooling load in the perimeter zone based on that, and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) Increase or decrease the evaporating temperature setting value. That is, in the first operation pattern, as the cooling load of the interior air conditioning system (5) increases or decreases, the evaporating temperature set value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) is increased or decreased to increase or decrease the cooling capacity of the perimeter air conditioning system (6). I made it. Thereby, since the capability of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) can be changed according to the cooling load, energy saving of the entire system can be achieved.

〈第2運転パターンの制御〉
この第2運転パターンは、インテリア空調系統(5)において加湿運転が行われ、ペリメータ空調系統(6)において冷房運転が行われる。この運転パターンは特に秋から冬場にかけて行われる。
<Control of the second operation pattern>
In the second operation pattern, the humidification operation is performed in the interior air conditioning system (5), and the cooling operation is performed in the perimeter air conditioning system (6). This driving pattern is especially carried out from autumn to winter.

インテリア空調系統(5)の加湿運転では、空調機(20)に流入した室外空気がフィルタ(21)、冷水コイル(22)および温水コイル(23)を順に通過した後、加湿器(24)で加湿される。加湿された空気は、空調機(20)から流出して室内のインテリアゾーンに供給される。これにより、インテリアゾーンの加湿が行われる。また、インテリアゾーンの室内空気が還気流路(31)を通じて空調機(20)に流入し室外空気と合流する点は上述した第1運転パターンと同様である。なお、冷水コイル(22)および温水コイル(23)の各流量調整弁(26,27)は室内負荷に応じて何れかが開放状態となっている。     In humidification operation of the interior air conditioning system (5), outdoor air that has flowed into the air conditioner (20) passes through the filter (21), the cold water coil (22), and the hot water coil (23) in that order, and then the humidifier (24). Humidified. The humidified air flows out of the air conditioner (20) and is supplied to the interior zone. Thereby, humidification of the interior zone is performed. Moreover, the point which the indoor air of an interior zone flows in into an air conditioner (20) through a return air flow path (31), and merges with outdoor air is the same as that of the 1st operation pattern mentioned above. Note that one of the flow rate adjustment valves (26, 27) of the cold water coil (22) and the hot water coil (23) is open according to the indoor load.

一方、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷房運転は、上述した第1運転パターンと同様である。     On the other hand, the cooling operation of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) is the same as the first operation pattern described above.

この第2運転パターンにおいて、コントローラ(50)は図3に示すような制御動作を行う。コントローラ(50)は、加湿器(24)用の流量調整弁(28)の開度制御を行う(ステップST21)。具体的に、流量調整弁(28)は、温湿度センサ(13)の検出湿度が所定値となるように開度が制御される。つまり、給気ファン(25)の吹出空気の湿度が所定値となるように流量調整弁(28)の開度が調節される。例えば、温湿度センサ(13)の検出湿度が所定値よりも低いときは流量調整弁(28)の開度が増加され、加湿器(24)における加湿用蒸気の供給量が増大される。逆に、温湿度センサ(13)の検出湿度が所定値よりも高いときは流量調整弁(28)の開度が減少され、加湿器(24)における加湿用蒸気の供給量が減少される。     In this second operation pattern, the controller (50) performs a control operation as shown in FIG. The controller (50) controls the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (28) for the humidifier (24) (step ST21). Specifically, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (28) is controlled so that the detected humidity of the temperature / humidity sensor (13) becomes a predetermined value. That is, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (28) is adjusted so that the humidity of the air blown from the air supply fan (25) becomes a predetermined value. For example, when the detected humidity of the temperature / humidity sensor (13) is lower than a predetermined value, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (28) is increased, and the supply amount of humidifying steam in the humidifier (24) is increased. Conversely, when the detected humidity of the temperature / humidity sensor (13) is higher than a predetermined value, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (28) is decreased, and the supply amount of humidifying steam in the humidifier (24) is decreased.

次いで、コントローラ(50)は、流量調整弁(28)の開度に応じてペリメータ空調系統(6)の蒸発温度設定値を変更する(ステップST22)。具体的に、流量調整弁(28)の開度が大きいほど、蒸発温度設定値は増大される。即ち、インテリアゾーンにおける加湿負荷が大きいほど、蒸発温度設定値は増大される。この第2運転パターンにおける蒸発温度設定値は、上述した第1運転パターンにおける蒸発温度設定値よりも比較的高い値に設定される。蒸発温度設定値が高くなると、室内機(42)の吹出空気温度が上昇する。これにより、ペリメータゾーンにおいて冷房運転による相対湿度の低下が抑制される。そのため、インテリアゾーンにおける加湿負荷が低減され、インテリア空調系統(5)およびシステム全体の省エネ化を図ることができる。     Next, the controller (50) changes the evaporating temperature setting value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) according to the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (28) (step ST22). Specifically, the larger the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (28), the larger the evaporation temperature set value. That is, the larger the humidification load in the interior zone, the greater the evaporation temperature set value. The evaporation temperature set value in the second operation pattern is set to a relatively higher value than the evaporation temperature set value in the first operation pattern described above. When the evaporation temperature set value increases, the blown air temperature of the indoor unit (42) increases. Thereby, the fall of the relative humidity by a cooling operation in a perimeter zone is suppressed. Therefore, the humidification load in the interior zone is reduced, and the interior air conditioning system (5) and the entire system can be saved.

〈第3運転パターンの制御〉
この第3運転パターンは、インテリア空調系統(5)において冷房運転が行われ、ペリメータ空調系統(6)において暖房運転が行われる。この運転パターンは特に冬場に行われる。
<Control of third operation pattern>
In the third operation pattern, the cooling operation is performed in the interior air conditioning system (5), and the heating operation is performed in the perimeter air conditioning system (6). This driving pattern is performed especially in winter.

インテリア空調系統(5)の冷房運転は、上述した第1運転パターンと同様である。     The cooling operation of the interior air conditioning system (5) is the same as the first operation pattern described above.

ペリメータ空調系統(6)の暖房運転では、ペリメータゾーンの室内空気が室内機(42)に取り込まれ、室内熱交換器で冷媒と熱交換して加熱され、その後ペリメータゾーンに供給される。これにより、ペリメータゾーンの暖房が行われる。室内熱交換器では、冷媒が室内空気と熱交換して凝縮温度設定値で凝縮する。なお、室外機(41)では、取り込まれた室外空気が室外熱交換器で冷媒と熱交換し、冷媒が蒸発する。     In the heating operation of the perimeter air conditioning system (6), the indoor air in the perimeter zone is taken into the indoor unit (42), heated by exchanging heat with the refrigerant in the indoor heat exchanger, and then supplied to the perimeter zone. Thereby, heating of a perimeter zone is performed. In the indoor heat exchanger, the refrigerant exchanges heat with room air and condenses at the condensation temperature set value. In the outdoor unit (41), the outdoor air taken in exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the outdoor heat exchanger, and the refrigerant evaporates.

この第3運転パターンにおいて、コントローラ(50)は図4に示すような制御動作を行う。コントローラ(50)は、上述した第1運転パターンと同様に、給気系統(10)の可変風量装置(14)の制御(ステップST11)、給気ファン(25)の風量制御(ステップST12)をそれぞれ行う。     In this third operation pattern, the controller (50) performs a control operation as shown in FIG. The controller (50) performs control (step ST11) of the variable air volume device (14) of the air supply system (10) and air volume control (step ST12) of the air supply fan (25) in the same manner as the first operation pattern described above. Do each.

次いで、コントローラ(50)は、冷水コイル(22)用の流量調整弁(26)の開度制御を行う(ステップST13)。具体的に、流量調整弁(26)は、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が所定値となるように開度が制御される。つまり、給気ファン(25)の吹出温度が所定値となるように流量調整弁(26)の開度が調節される。例えば、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が所定値よりも低いときは流量調整弁(26)の開度が増加され、冷水コイル(22)における冷水の供給量が増大される。逆に、温湿度センサ(13)の検出温度が所定値よりも高いときは流量調整弁(26)の開度が減少され、冷水コイル(22)における冷水の供給量が減少される。     Next, the controller (50) controls the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) for the cold water coil (22) (step ST13). Specifically, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (26) is controlled so that the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) becomes a predetermined value. That is, the opening degree of the flow rate adjusting valve (26) is adjusted so that the temperature of the supply air fan (25) is a predetermined value. For example, when the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) is lower than a predetermined value, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) is increased, and the amount of cold water supplied to the cold water coil (22) is increased. Conversely, when the temperature detected by the temperature / humidity sensor (13) is higher than a predetermined value, the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) is decreased, and the amount of cold water supplied to the cold water coil (22) is decreased.

次いで、コントローラ(50)は、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の凝縮温度設定値を変更する(ステップST14)。コントローラ(50)は、冷水コイル(22)用の流量調整弁(26)が開放していること、且つ、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷媒回路において冷媒が暖房サイクルで循環していることを条件として、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の凝縮温度設定値を減少させる。つまり、コントローラ(50)は、インテリア空調系統(5)が冷房運転を行い且つペリメータ空調系統(6)が暖房運転を行うと、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の凝縮温度設定値を減少変更させる。例えば、インテリア空調系統(5)およびペリメータ空調系統(6)の双方が暖房運転を行う場合ではペリメータ空調系統(6)の凝縮温度設定値が一定のα℃で定められている場合、そのα℃から所定のβ℃(<α℃)に減少される。     Next, the controller (50) changes the condensing temperature setting value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) (step ST14). The controller (50) requires that the flow regulating valve (26) for the chilled water coil (22) is open and that the refrigerant circulates in the heating cycle in the refrigerant circuit of the perimeter air conditioning system (6). As described above, the condensation temperature set value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) is decreased. That is, when the interior air conditioning system (5) performs the cooling operation and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) performs the heating operation, the controller (50) decreases and changes the condensing temperature set value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6). For example, when both the interior air conditioning system (5) and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) perform heating operation, if the condensation temperature set value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) is set at a constant α ° C, the α ° C To a predetermined β ° C. (<α ° C.).

凝縮温度設定値が減少されると、室内機(42)からの吹出空気温度が低下する。そうすると、ペリメータゾーンにおいて暖房運転を行いつつもそのペリメータゾーンの温度とインテリアゾーンの温度との差が比較的小さくなる。これにより、インテリアゾーンの空気とペリメータゾーンの空気とが混合することによって生じる熱ロス(即ち、ミキシングロス)を低減することができる。よって、インテリア空調系統(5)およびペリメータ空調系統(6)の省エネ化を図ることができる。     When the condensation temperature set value is decreased, the temperature of the air blown from the indoor unit (42) is lowered. Then, while performing the heating operation in the perimeter zone, the difference between the temperature of the perimeter zone and the temperature of the interior zone becomes relatively small. Thereby, the heat loss (namely, mixing loss) which arises by mixing the air of an interior zone and the air of a perimeter zone can be reduced. Therefore, energy saving of the interior air conditioning system (5) and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) can be achieved.

なお、上記βの値は、一定であってもよいが、冷水コイル(22)用の流量調整弁(26)の開度に応じて変更するようにしてもよい。例えば、流量調整弁(26)の開度が大きくなるに従ってβの値が小さくなるように設定してもよい。つまり、インテリア空調系統(5)の冷房能力(冷房負荷)が大きくなるに従って、より低い凝縮温度設定値に減少させるようにしてもよい。これにより、インテリアゾーンの温度に合わせて室内機(42)からの吹出空気温度を低下させることができ、ペリメータゾーンの温度とインテリアゾーンの温度との差を的確に小さくすることができる。その結果、両ゾーンの空気が混合することによる熱ロスを効果的に低減することができる。     In addition, although the value of β may be constant, it may be changed according to the opening degree of the flow rate adjustment valve (26) for the cold water coil (22). For example, you may set so that the value of (beta) may become small as the opening degree of a flow regulating valve (26) becomes large. That is, as the cooling capacity (cooling load) of the interior air conditioning system (5) increases, it may be decreased to a lower condensing temperature set value. Thereby, the temperature of the air blown from the indoor unit (42) can be lowered in accordance with the temperature of the interior zone, and the difference between the temperature of the perimeter zone and the temperature of the interior zone can be accurately reduced. As a result, heat loss due to mixing of air in both zones can be effectively reduced.

−実施形態の効果−
本実施形態によれば、インテリア空調系統(5)およびペリメータ空調系統(6)の双方が冷房運転を行う場合、インテリア空調系統(5)の冷房負荷に応じてペリメータ空調系統(6)の蒸発温度設定値を変更するようにした。したがって、インテリア空調系統(5)の冷房負荷が減少した場合、蒸発温度設定値を増大させることができる。ペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷凍サイクルにおいて蒸発温度が増大すると、COP(成績係数)が向上する。よって、システムの省エネを図ることができる。
-Effect of the embodiment-
According to this embodiment, when both the interior air conditioning system (5) and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) perform cooling operation, the evaporating temperature of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) according to the cooling load of the interior air conditioning system (5). The setting value was changed. Therefore, when the cooling load of the interior air conditioning system (5) decreases, the evaporating temperature set value can be increased. When the evaporation temperature increases in the refrigeration cycle of the perimeter air conditioning system (6), the COP (coefficient of performance) improves. Therefore, energy saving of the system can be achieved.

また、蒸発温度が増大変更されないとペリメータゾーンでは比較的低い温度の空気が供給される。そうすると、その低温の空気がインテリアゾーンへ流れ込み、インテリアゾーンではドラフトによって快適性が損なわれる。ところが、本実施形態では、蒸発温度が増大変更されるため、ペリメータゾーンにおける供給空気温度が上昇する。これにより、ペリメータゾーンからインテリアゾーンへの空気の流れ込みを防止でき、快適性を向上させることができる。     If the evaporating temperature is not increased and changed, relatively low temperature air is supplied to the perimeter zone. Then, the low-temperature air flows into the interior zone, and comfort is impaired by the draft in the interior zone. However, in this embodiment, since the evaporation temperature is increased and changed, the supply air temperature in the perimeter zone increases. Thereby, the inflow of air from the perimeter zone to the interior zone can be prevented, and comfort can be improved.

また、本実施形態では、インテリア空調系統(5)が加湿運転を行い、ペリメータ空調系統(6)が冷房運転を行う場合、インテリア空調系統(5)の加湿負荷(潜熱負荷)に応じてペリメータ空調系統(6)の蒸発温度設定値を変更するようにした。したがって、インテリア空調系統(5)の加湿負荷が増大した場合、蒸発温度設定値を増大させることができる。これにより、ペリメータゾーンでは供給空気温度が上昇するため除湿作用が減少する。そのため、インテリアゾーンにおける加湿負荷がペリメータ空調系統(6)の冷房運転によって増大することを防止できる。さらには、ペリメータ空調系統(6)では蒸発温度が増大するのでCOP(成績係数)が向上する。これらの結果、システムの省エネを図ることができる。     In the present embodiment, when the interior air conditioning system (5) performs a humidifying operation and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) performs a cooling operation, the perimeter air conditioning is performed according to the humidification load (latent heat load) of the interior air conditioning system (5). The evaporating temperature setting value of the system (6) was changed. Therefore, when the humidification load of the interior air conditioning system (5) increases, the evaporating temperature set value can be increased. Thereby, in the perimeter zone, the supply air temperature rises, so that the dehumidifying action is reduced. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the humidification load in the interior zone from increasing due to the cooling operation of the perimeter air conditioning system (6). Furthermore, in the perimeter air conditioning system (6), the evaporation temperature increases, so the COP (coefficient of performance) is improved. As a result, energy saving of the system can be achieved.

また、本実施形態では、インテリア空調系統(5)が冷房運転を行い、ペリメータ空調系統(6)が暖房運転を行う場合、ペリメータ空調系統(6)の凝縮温度設定値を両空調系統(5,6)が暖房運転を行う場合に設定される凝縮温度よりも減少させるようにした。したがって、ペリメータゾーンでは供給空気温度が低くなり、ペリメータゾーンの温度とインテリアゾーンの温度との差が比較的小さくなる。る。よって、インテリアゾーンの空気とペリメータゾーンの空気とが混合することによって生じる熱ロス(即ち、ミキシングロス)を低減することができる。よって、システムの省エネを図ることができる。     In this embodiment, when the interior air conditioning system (5) performs cooling operation and the perimeter air conditioning system (6) performs heating operation, the condensation temperature set value of the perimeter air conditioning system (6) is set to both air conditioning systems (5, 6) Reduced the condensation temperature that is set when heating operation is performed. Therefore, the supply air temperature is low in the perimeter zone, and the difference between the temperature of the perimeter zone and the temperature of the interior zone is relatively small. The Therefore, the heat loss (namely, mixing loss) which arises when the air of an interior zone and the air of a perimeter zone mix can be reduced. Therefore, energy saving of the system can be achieved.

That is, any means may be used as long as it can determine the cooling load in the interior zone.
