Description

本発明は、コンピュータやネットワーク機器などの情報通信機器類を格納している情報通信室や電算機室などの室内を冷房する空気調和装置に関する。   The present invention relates to an air conditioner for cooling a room such as an information communication room or a computer room storing information communication equipment such as computers and network equipment.

従来の情報通信室向けの空気調和装置においては、ヒートポンプ式空気調和機の吹出し温度を制御することで室内冷房が行われていた。
一方、特許文献1に示すように、外気を導入し、室内換気と併せて空調を行うようにした空気調和装置が知られており、この特許文献1のものでは、外気および室内の温湿度検知手段により外気導入量を制御している。
In a conventional air conditioner for an information communication room, room cooling has been performed by controlling the blow-out temperature of a heat pump air conditioner.
On the other hand, as shown in Patent Document 1, an air conditioner in which outside air is introduced and air conditioning is performed in combination with indoor ventilation is known. The amount of outside air introduced is controlled by means.

近年、特に、情報通信室などの空調を行う分野では省エネ化のニーズが高まっており、外気温度が空調対象の室温より低い条件では外気を導入して、空調負荷を賄う外気冷房モードを備えた空気調和装置の開発が望まれている。外気を導入して冷房すれば、省エネ化を図ることができるため、情報通信室向け空気調和装置の省エネ化のため、外気導入方式の空気調和装置が検討されている。   In recent years, especially in the field of air conditioning such as information and communication rooms, there is a growing need for energy saving, and outside air is introduced under conditions where the outside air temperature is lower than the room temperature for air conditioning, and an outside air cooling mode is provided to cover the air conditioning load. Development of an air conditioner is desired. If the outside air is introduced and cooled, energy can be saved. Therefore, in order to save energy in the air conditioner for an information communication room, an outside air introduction type air conditioner has been studied.

特開2006−275509号公報JP 2006-275509 A

しかし、情報通信室などの冷房のため、空気調和機の運転によるヒートポンプ運転モード(ヒートポンプ冷房運転)と、外気導入のみによる外気冷房モード(外気冷房運転)とを、単純に交互に切換えて運転を実施した場合、吹出温度が大幅に変動し、情報通信室内に結露が発生することが懸念される。   However, for the cooling of information communication rooms, etc., the operation is simply switched alternately between the heat pump operation mode (heat pump cooling operation) by the operation of the air conditioner and the outside air cooling mode (outside air cooling operation) by only introducing the outside air. When implemented, there is a concern that the blowout temperature will fluctuate significantly and condensation will occur in the information communication room.

本発明の目的は、空気調和機の運転によるヒートポンプ冷房運転と、外気導入のみによる外気冷房運転とを、交互に切換えて運転しても結露の発生を防止できる空気調和装置を得ることにある。   An object of the present invention is to obtain an air conditioner that can prevent the occurrence of condensation even when the heat pump cooling operation by the operation of the air conditioner and the outside air cooling operation by only introducing the outside air are alternately switched.

上記目的を達成するため、本発明は、圧縮機を有し冷凍サイクルを構成して吸込空気を冷却し吹出すようにした空気調和機と、室内空気を前記空気調和機に導くダクトと、このダクトへの室内空気の流入を制御する吸気ダンパと、前記室内への外気の流入を制御する外気ダンパと、外気の温度を検出する外気温度センサとを備える空気調和装置において、前記空気調和機の圧縮機を駆動するヒートポンプ運転で室内を冷房するヒートポンプ運転モードと、前記外気温度センサで検出された外気温度が予め定めた設定温度に達した場合、前記吸気ダンパ及び前記外気ダンパを制御して外気を室内に導入し、前記室内を冷房する外気冷房モードを備え、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードから前記外気冷房モードに切り替える際、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードで動作中の前記圧縮機の周波数を低下させ、その後外気を室内に導入するように構成したことを特徴とする。   In order to achieve the above object, the present invention comprises an air conditioner having a compressor to constitute a refrigeration cycle so as to cool and blow out intake air, a duct for guiding indoor air to the air conditioner, An air conditioner comprising: an intake damper that controls inflow of room air into a duct; an outside air damper that controls inflow of outside air into the room; and an outside air temperature sensor that detects a temperature of outside air. When the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor reaches a preset temperature when the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor reaches a preset temperature, the outside air damper is controlled by controlling the intake air damper and the outside air damper. Is provided with an outside air cooling mode for cooling the room, and the heat pump operation is performed when switching from the heat pump operation mode to the outside air cooling mode. Reducing the frequency of the compressor in operation at over de, characterized in that subsequently configured to introduce outside air into the room.

本発明の他の特徴は、圧縮機、室外熱交換器、膨張手段、室内熱交換器を順次冷媒配管で接続して冷凍サイクルを構成すると共に、室内空気を吸込み、熱交換器で冷却した後、送風機で前記室内に吹出す空気調和機と、室内空気を前記空気調和機に導くダクトと、このダクトへの室内空気の流入を制御するための吸気ダンパと、前記ダクトへの外気の流入を制御するための外気ダンパと、外気の温度を検出する外気温度センサとを備える空気調和装置において、前記空気調和機の圧縮機を駆動するヒートポンプ運転で室内を冷房するヒートポンプ運転モードと、前記吸気ダンパ及び前記外気ダンパを制御することで、前記空気調和機の送風機により外気を室内に導入して室内を冷房する外気冷房モードを備え、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードから前記外気冷房モードに切り替える際、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードで動作中の前記圧縮機の周波数を一旦低下させ、その後前記外気ダンパを開いて外気を室内に導入するように構成したことにある。   Another feature of the present invention is that the compressor, the outdoor heat exchanger, the expansion means, and the indoor heat exchanger are sequentially connected by refrigerant piping to form a refrigeration cycle, and the indoor air is sucked and cooled by the heat exchanger. An air conditioner that blows out into the room by a blower, a duct that guides room air to the air conditioner, an intake damper that controls the inflow of room air into the duct, and an inflow of outside air into the duct. An air conditioner comprising an outside air damper for controlling and an outside air temperature sensor for detecting a temperature of outside air, a heat pump operation mode for cooling a room by a heat pump operation for driving a compressor of the air conditioner, and the intake damper And an outside air cooling mode in which outside air is introduced into the room by the blower of the air conditioner to cool the room by controlling the outside air damper. Wherein when switching the outdoor air cooling mode, once lowers the frequency of the compressor operating in the heat pump operating mode, it is subsequently to the outside air by opening the outside air damper and configured to introduce into the room.

ここで、前記空気調和機への吸込温度を検出する吸込温度センサと、前記空気調和機から吹出される吹出空気の温度を検出する吹出温度センサとを設け、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードから前記外気冷房モードに切り替える際、前記空気調和機からの吹出温度を検出して、外気を導入しても結露しない温度まで上昇してから切り替えるようにすると良い。また、本発明は、情報通信機器類を格納する情報通信室の空調に使用して好適なものである。   Here, a suction temperature sensor that detects a suction temperature to the air conditioner and a blow temperature sensor that detects a temperature of blown air blown from the air conditioner are provided, and the outside air cooling mode is changed from the heat pump operation mode. When switching to, it is preferable to detect the temperature of air blown out from the air conditioner and switch it after the temperature has risen to a level that does not cause condensation even when outside air is introduced. In addition, the present invention is suitable for use in air conditioning in an information communication room that stores information communication devices.

上記において、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードから前記外気冷房モードに切り替えるために、前記ヒートポンプ運転モードで動作中の前記圧縮機の周波数を低下させると共に、運転周波数に上限を設けることで、前記空気調和機からの吹出温度が外気を導入しても結露しない温度まで上昇させるようにすることができる。   In the above, in order to switch from the heat pump operation mode to the outside air cooling mode, the frequency of the compressor operating in the heat pump operation mode is reduced, and an upper limit is provided for the operation frequency, thereby The blowing temperature can be raised to a temperature at which no condensation occurs even when outside air is introduced.

また、外気湿度センサを更に設け、外気温度及び外気湿度が予め定められた範囲の場合に外気を導入して前記外気冷房モードで運転を行うことが好ましい。   Further, it is preferable that an outside air humidity sensor is further provided, and the outside air is introduced and the operation is performed in the outside air cooling mode when the outside air temperature and the outside air humidity are in a predetermined range.

前記ヒートポンプ運転モードから前記外気冷房モードに切り替える際、前記圧縮機の周波数を一定時間低下させることで前記空気調和機からの吹出温度が、外気を導入しても結露しない温度まで上昇させるようにして切り替えると良い。ここで、前記外気温度センサで検出された外気温度が予め定めた設定温度(閾値)に達したら一定時間前記圧縮機の運転周波数を下げるようにすると良い。   When switching from the heat pump operation mode to the outside air cooling mode, by reducing the frequency of the compressor for a certain period of time, the blowing temperature from the air conditioner is increased to a temperature that does not condense even when outside air is introduced. It is good to switch. Here, when the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor reaches a predetermined set temperature (threshold), the operating frequency of the compressor may be lowered for a certain period of time.

また、前記外気温度センサで検出された外気温度が予め定めた設定温度(閾値)に近づいてある一定の温度に達したら前記圧縮機の運転周波数を低下させ、外気導入しても結露しない温度まで空気調和機の吹出温度又は吹出口周辺の温度を上昇させる運転をし、その後前記閾値に達したら前記外気冷房モードに切替えるようにすることもできる。ここで、前記圧縮機の運転周波数を低下させた後一定時間経過しても前記閾値に達しないときには通常のヒートポンプ運転モードに戻り、一定時間は当該通常のヒートポンプ運転モードを続けるようにすると良い。   In addition, when the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor reaches a certain temperature approaching a predetermined set temperature (threshold), the operating frequency of the compressor is lowered to a temperature at which no condensation occurs even when outside air is introduced. It is also possible to operate to increase the temperature of the air conditioner or the temperature around the air outlet, and then switch to the outside air cooling mode when the threshold is reached. Here, when the threshold is not reached even after a lapse of a certain time after the operating frequency of the compressor is lowered, the normal heat pump operation mode is returned, and the normal heat pump operation mode is continued for a certain time.

本発明によれば、ヒートポンプ運転モードと、外気を室内に導入して室内を冷房する外気冷房モードとを備え、ヒートポンプ運転モードから外気冷房モードに切り替える際、ヒートポンプ運転モードで動作中の圧縮機の周波数を一旦低下させて空気調和機からの吹出温度を、外気を導入しても結露しない温度まで上昇させてから、外気を室内に導入するように構成しているので、空気調和機の運転によるヒートポンプ運転モードと、外気導入のみによる外気冷房モードとを、交互に切換えて運転しても結露の発生を防止できる空気調和装置を得ることができる。   According to the present invention, a heat pump operation mode and an outside air cooling mode for introducing outside air into the room to cool the room are provided. When switching from the heat pump operation mode to the outside air cooling mode, the compressor operating in the heat pump operation mode is provided. The frequency is once lowered and the temperature of the air conditioner is increased to a temperature that does not cause condensation even when outside air is introduced, and then the outside air is introduced into the room. Even if the heat pump operation mode and the outside air cooling mode by only introducing outside air are alternately switched and operated, an air conditioner that can prevent the occurrence of dew condensation can be obtained.

An outside air damper 7 is provided. The dampers 6 and 7 may be provided in ducts close to the respective intakes.

前記空気調和機1の吹出側は前記床下空間R1に開口され、空気調和された空気が床下空間R1を介して情報通信室R内に吹出すことができるように構成されている。前記空気調和機1内には室内熱交換器15及び送風機16などが設けられており、前記吸込ダクト8から空気調和機1に取入れられた空気は室内熱交換器15で冷却され送風機16により床下空間R1に吹出される。   The blowout side of the air conditioner 1 is opened to the underfloor space R1 so that air conditioned can be blown into the information communication room R through the underfloor space R1. The air conditioner 1 is provided with an indoor heat exchanger 15 and a blower 16, and the air taken into the air conditioner 1 from the suction duct 8 is cooled by the indoor heat exchanger 15 and is blown under the floor by the blower 16. It is blown out into the space R1.

また、前記空気調和機1内の吸込側には吸込温度センサ2が設けられ、更に室外空気取入口R6の吸込側或いは室外には外気温度センサ3が、前記空気調和機吹出側の床下空間R1には吹出温度センサ4と吹出湿度センサ5がそれぞれ設置されている。これらのセンサ2〜5での検出値は空気調和機1内に設けられた制御装置(図1には図示せず、図3参照)に送られる。   Further, a suction temperature sensor 2 is provided on the suction side in the air conditioner 1, and an outside air temperature sensor 3 is provided on the suction side of the outdoor air inlet R6 or outside the room, and an underfloor space R1 on the air conditioner outlet side. Are provided with an outlet temperature sensor 4 and an outlet humidity sensor 5, respectively. The detection values of these sensors 2 to 5 are sent to a control device (not shown in FIG. 1, see FIG. 3) provided in the air conditioner 1.

前記吸気ダンパ6と外気ダンパ7を開閉して、ヒートポンプ冷房運転と外気導入による外気冷房運転が行なわれる。即ち、ヒートポンプ冷房運転では、情報通信室内の空気を天井空間R2から吸気ダンパ6を介して吸込み、空気調和機1の圧縮機(図1には図示せず、図2参照)を駆動して、吸込んだ室内空気を空気調和機の熱交換器15により冷却し、送風機16により床下空間R1を介して再び情報通信室R内に吹出す。また、外気導入による外気冷房運転では、前記外気ダンパ7を介して外気を空気調和機1に導入し、前記送風機16により外気を前記床下空間R1を介して情報通信室R内に吹出す。   The intake damper 6 and the outside air damper 7 are opened and closed to perform a heat pump cooling operation and an outside air cooling operation by introducing outside air. That is, in the heat pump cooling operation, the air in the information communication room is sucked from the ceiling space R2 through the intake damper 6, and the compressor of the air conditioner 1 (not shown in FIG. 1, see FIG. 2) is driven. The sucked room air is cooled by the heat exchanger 15 of the air conditioner, and blown out again into the information communication room R by the blower 16 through the underfloor space R1.

Also good. In this case, the intake damper 6 may remain closed, or may be opened to an appropriate opening as necessary. In addition, when performing normal heat pump cooling operation, the intake damper 6 is fully opened and the outside air damper 7 is fully closed.

図2は、本実施例における空気調和機1の冷凍サイクル構成図を示す。本実施例では、空気調和機1を、1台の室内ユニット1a及び1台の室外ユニット1bによる1つの冷凍サイクルで構成した例で説明するが、これ以外の構成、例えば、冷凍サイクルを2つ設け、空調負荷により運転する冷凍サイクルの数を制御するようにしても良い。   FIG. 2 shows a refrigeration cycle configuration diagram of the air conditioner 1 in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the air conditioner 1 is described as an example in which the air conditioner 1 is configured by one refrigeration cycle including one indoor unit 1a and one outdoor unit 1b. However, other configurations, for example, two refrigeration cycles are provided. It is also possible to control the number of refrigeration cycles operated by the air conditioning load.

前記室内ユニット1aにおいて、9は圧縮機(9Aは可変速圧縮機、9Bは一定速圧縮機を示す)、10は圧縮機9の吐出側に設けられた油分離器、14は圧縮機9の吸入側に設けられた膨張弁で、この膨張弁14と圧縮機9との間には室内熱交換器15及びアキュ−ムレ−タ17が設けられている。16は室内熱交換15用の送風機、18A,18Bは圧縮機9と油分離器10との間に設けられた逆止弁、19は油分離機10で分離された油をアキュームレータ17に戻すための油戻し回路で、この油戻し回路19には油制御弁19aとキャピラリチューブ19bが設けられている。20はガス管22との接続部に設けられたガス阻止弁、21は液管23との接続部に設けられた液阻止弁である。なお、図1に示す空気調和機1はこの室内ユニット1aに相当している。   In the indoor unit 1a, 9 is a compressor (9A is a variable speed compressor, 9B is a constant speed compressor), 10 is an oil separator provided on the discharge side of the compressor 9, and 14 is a compressor 9 An indoor heat exchanger 15 and an accumulator 17 are provided between the expansion valve 14 and the compressor 9 as an expansion valve provided on the suction side. 16 is a blower for the indoor heat exchange 15, 18A and 18B are check valves provided between the compressor 9 and the oil separator 10, and 19 is for returning the oil separated by the oil separator 10 to the accumulator 17. The oil return circuit 19 is provided with an oil control valve 19a and a capillary tube 19b. Reference numeral 20 denotes a gas blocking valve provided at a connection portion with the gas pipe 22, and reference numeral 21 denotes a liquid blocking valve provided at a connection portion with the liquid pipe 23. Note that the air conditioner 1 shown in FIG. 1 corresponds to the indoor unit 1a.

前記室外ユニット1bは、室外熱交換器11、室外熱交換用の送風機12及び冷媒量調整器13等により構成されている。この室外ユニット1bは、前記室内ユニット1aとは前記ガス管22及び前記液管23により接続されている。   The outdoor unit 1b includes an outdoor heat exchanger 11, an outdoor heat exchange fan 12, a refrigerant amount adjuster 13, and the like. The outdoor unit 1b is connected to the indoor unit 1a by the gas pipe 22 and the liquid pipe 23.

次に、上記のように構成された冷凍サイクルにおける動作を説明する。まず、圧縮機9A,9Bにより低温低圧の冷媒ガスを高温高圧に圧縮し、圧縮機から吐出された高温高圧の冷媒ガスは逆止弁18A,18B、油分離器10、ガス阻止弁20及びガス管22を経て、室外熱交換器11に入り、ここで外気と熱交換されて凝縮し、液冷媒となる。この液冷媒は冷媒量調整器13、液管23及び液阻止弁21を経て、室内ユニット側の膨張弁14に入り減圧された後、室内熱交換器15で室内空気と熱交換されて蒸発し、低圧ガス冷媒となる。この低圧ガス冷媒はアキュ−ムレ−タ17を経て再び圧縮機9A,9Bに吸入される。   Next, the operation in the refrigeration cycle configured as described above will be described. First, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas is compressed to high temperature and high pressure by the compressors 9A and 9B, and the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged from the compressor is the check valves 18A and 18B, the oil separator 10, the gas blocking valve 20 and the gas. It enters the outdoor heat exchanger 11 through the pipe 22, where it is heat-exchanged with the outside air to condense and become a liquid refrigerant. The liquid refrigerant passes through the refrigerant amount regulator 13, the liquid pipe 23, and the liquid blocking valve 21, enters the expansion valve 14 on the indoor unit side, and is depressurized. Then, the liquid refrigerant evaporates by exchanging heat with indoor air in the indoor heat exchanger 15. It becomes a low-pressure gas refrigerant. This low-pressure gas refrigerant passes through the accumulator 17 and is again sucked into the compressors 9A and 9B.

図3は本実施例における空気調和装置の制御装置を示すブロック図である。本実施例による空気調和装置の制御装置は前記室内ユニット内の電気箱(図示せず)に内蔵されており、図1に示す吸込温度センサ2、外気温度センサ3及び吹出温度センサ4により検知された、空気調和機1への吸込温度、外気温度、及び空気調和機からの吹出温度の信号が、制御装置を構成する運転動作設定手段30に入力され、これらの情報を基に、運転動作設定手段30は、図2に示す冷凍サイクルを駆動してヒートポンプ冷房運転を行うか、或いは外気導入による外気冷房運転を行うかを決定する。この運転動作設定手段30による決定に応じて、外気導入制御手段31や空気調和機運転制御手段32が動作する。   FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a control device of the air conditioner in the present embodiment. The control device of the air conditioner according to the present embodiment is built in an electric box (not shown) in the indoor unit, and is detected by the suction temperature sensor 2, the outside air temperature sensor 3, and the blowout temperature sensor 4 shown in FIG. In addition, the signals of the intake temperature to the air conditioner 1, the outside air temperature, and the blowout temperature from the air conditioner are input to the operation setting unit 30 constituting the control device, and the operation setting is performed based on these information. The means 30 determines whether to perform the heat pump cooling operation by driving the refrigeration cycle shown in FIG. 2 or to perform the outside air cooling operation by introducing outside air. In response to the determination by the operation setting unit 30, the outside air introduction control unit 31 and the air conditioner operation control unit 32 operate.

外気温度センサ3からの信号により、外気温度が空調対象の室内温度より低い予め定められた設定温度に達し、外気導入による外気冷房運転が選択された場合には、外気導入制御手段31が作動し、図1に示す外気ダンパ7は開状態に制御されて、空気調和機1の送風機16により、外気が床下空間R1を介して情報通信室R内に導入される。なお、外気導入による外気冷房運転が選択された場合には、吸気ダンパ6は閉じられ、図2に示す冷凍サイクルにおける圧縮機9は停止されるので、図1及び図2に示す室内熱交換器15での熱交換は行われない。   When the outside air temperature reaches a predetermined set temperature lower than the room temperature to be air-conditioned by the signal from the outside air temperature sensor 3 and the outside air cooling operation by outside air introduction is selected, the outside air introduction control means 31 is activated. The outside air damper 7 shown in FIG. 1 is controlled to be in an open state, and outside air is introduced into the information communication room R through the underfloor space R1 by the blower 16 of the air conditioner 1. When the outside air cooling operation by introducing outside air is selected, the intake damper 6 is closed and the compressor 9 in the refrigeration cycle shown in FIG. 2 is stopped, so that the indoor heat exchanger shown in FIGS. No heat exchange takes place at 15.

外気温度が空調対象の室内温度より高いか同程度である場合には、外気導入による室内の冷房は困難であるため、ヒートポンプ冷房運転が選択される。この場合には、空気調和機運転制御手段32が作動し、図1に示す外気ダンパ7は閉じられ、吸気ダンパ6が開状態に制御され、更に図2に示す冷凍サイクルの圧縮機9が駆動され、図1に示す天井空間R2から空気調和機1に導入された室内空気は熱交換器15で冷媒と熱交換されて冷却され、送風機16により床下空間R1を通じて室内に吹出される。   When the outside air temperature is higher than or similar to the room temperature of the air-conditioning target, it is difficult to cool the room by introducing the outside air, so the heat pump cooling operation is selected. In this case, the air conditioner operation control means 32 is activated, the outside air damper 7 shown in FIG. 1 is closed, the intake damper 6 is controlled to be opened, and the compressor 9 of the refrigeration cycle shown in FIG. 2 is driven. The indoor air introduced into the air conditioner 1 from the ceiling space R2 shown in FIG. 1 is cooled by heat exchange with the refrigerant in the heat exchanger 15, and blown out into the room through the underfloor space R1 by the blower 16.

また、図2に示す圧縮機9は、図1に示す吸込温度センサ2や吹出温度センサ5からの信号に応じて、可変速圧縮機9Aの回転数(周波数)が制御され、また一定速圧縮機9BのON−OFF制御が為される。   Further, the compressor 9 shown in FIG. 2 controls the rotation speed (frequency) of the variable speed compressor 9A according to signals from the suction temperature sensor 2 and the blowout temperature sensor 5 shown in FIG. The ON / OFF control of the machine 9B is performed.

図4は、本実施例における空気調和装置の動作の一例を、外気温度の変化に対して説明する図である。横軸は時間の経過を示し、この例では時間の経過と共に外気温度(実線のA)が低下していく場合の例を示している。外気が低くない条件(図の左半分で、例えば18℃以上)では、ヒートポンプ冷房運転(ヒートポンプ運転モード)が実施され、空調負荷に応じて吸込・吹出温度制御や圧縮機の周波数制御が実施される。外気温度がある閾値(例えば18℃)まで低下すると、圧縮機を停止してヒートポンプ冷房運転を停止し、代わって外気導入による外気冷房運転(外気冷房モード)が実施される。外気冷房運転では、温度の低い外気によって室内の空調負荷が賄われ、室内は外気により冷房される。   FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of the operation of the air conditioner according to the present embodiment with respect to changes in the outside air temperature. The horizontal axis indicates the passage of time, and in this example, an example is shown in which the outside air temperature (solid line A) decreases with the passage of time. Under conditions where the outside air is not low (in the left half of the figure, for example, 18 ° C. or higher), heat pump cooling operation (heat pump operation mode) is performed, and suction / blowout temperature control and compressor frequency control are performed according to the air conditioning load. The When the outside air temperature falls to a certain threshold value (for example, 18 ° C.), the compressor is stopped to stop the heat pump cooling operation, and an outside air cooling operation (outside air cooling mode) by introducing outside air is performed instead. In the outside air cooling operation, the indoor air conditioning load is covered by outside air having a low temperature, and the room is cooled by outside air.

従来、外気温度が、例えば18℃になるまで(ヒートポンプ冷房運転から外気冷房運転になるまでの間)は、圧縮機は、空気調和機への吸込温度や吹出温度に応じて制御されていたため、点線Bで示すように、ほぼ一定の高い周波数で運転されていた。このため、空気調和機からの吹出温度は、外気温度が18℃の時点では、冷房能力が上昇することもあって、点線Cで示すように、低めの値(例えば13℃)となっていた。   Conventionally, until the outside air temperature reaches, for example, 18 ° C. (between the heat pump cooling operation and the outside air cooling operation), the compressor is controlled according to the suction temperature and the blowing temperature to the air conditioner. As indicated by the dotted line B, it was operated at a substantially constant high frequency. For this reason, when the outside air temperature is 18 ° C., the cooling temperature from the air conditioner has a low value (for example, 13 ° C.) as indicated by the dotted line C because the cooling capacity may increase. .

このヒートポンプ冷房運転の状態から、外気温度が18℃になって、急に外気冷房運転に切り替ると、切り替わる前の吹出温度(13℃)より高い温度の外気(18℃)が空気調和機の送風機16により、床下空間R1を通じて室内に導入される。空気調和機の吹出口周辺の温度は、外気冷房運転への切り替り時には前記吹出温度(13℃)並みの低い温度であるため、18℃の外気が流入すると外気は冷やされ、この外気導入時の外気温度と送風機吹出側との温度差が大きいと、導入された外気が露点温度に達し、吹出口周辺に結露を発生させる(例えば18℃で相対湿度75%の空気の露点温度は13.4℃)。特に、情報通信室等の冷房においては、サーバ等に水がつくことによって電気系統の絶縁低下等、高価な機材や情報の損傷につながる問題を引き起こす虞がある。   From this heat pump cooling operation state, when the outside air temperature becomes 18 ° C. and suddenly switches to the outside air cooling operation, the outside air (18 ° C.) having a temperature higher than the blowing temperature (13 ° C.) before the switching is It is introduced into the room through the underfloor space R1 by the blower 16. Since the temperature around the air outlet of the air conditioner is as low as the temperature of the blowout air (13 ° C.) when switching to the outside air cooling operation, the outside air is cooled when the outside air of 18 ° C. flows in. When the temperature difference between the outside air temperature and the blower outlet side is large, the introduced outside air reaches the dew point temperature and causes dew point around the outlet (for example, the dew point temperature of air at 18 ° C. and 75% relative humidity is 13. 4 ° C). In particular, in the cooling of an information communication room or the like, water on a server or the like may cause a problem that leads to damage to expensive equipment or information, such as a decrease in insulation of an electric system.

これに対し本実施例では、ヒートポンプ冷房運転から外気冷房運転に切り替わる前に、圧縮機運転周波数を曲線Dで示すように低くし、冷房能力を低下させることで、吹出温度を曲線Fで示すように高めの値(例えば15〜16℃)にする。このような制御を行うことで、外気冷房モードに切り替って外気が室内に導入されても、外気と吹出温度との差を小さくすることができるから、外気が露点温度に達して結露するのを防止することができる。なお、図4で、曲線Eは本実施例における空気調和機への吸込温度を示している。   On the other hand, in this embodiment, before switching from the heat pump cooling operation to the outside air cooling operation, the compressor operating frequency is lowered as shown by the curve D, and the cooling capacity is lowered so that the blowing temperature is shown by the curve F. To a higher value (for example, 15 to 16 ° C.). By performing such control, even if the outside air is switched to the outside air cooling mode and the outside air is introduced into the room, the difference between the outside air and the blowout temperature can be reduced, so that the outside air reaches the dew point temperature and condensation occurs. Can be prevented. In addition, in FIG. 4, the curve E has shown the suction temperature to the air conditioner in a present Example.

外気冷房運転に切り替わる前に、圧縮機周波数を曲線Dで示すように低くするタイミングとしては、例えば次の何れかの制御を取り入れると良い。
(i)外気温度が予め定めた設定温度(閾値)にある程度近づいたある一定の温度(例えば18.5℃)に達したら圧縮機運転周波数を低下させ、外気導入しても結露しない温度(例えば15〜16℃)まで空気調和機の吹出温度又は空気調和機の吹出口周辺の温度を上昇させる運転をし、その後閾値(例えば18℃)に達したら外気冷房運転に切替える。一定時間(例えば30分)経過しても閾値に達しない場合にはヒートポンプ冷房運転に戻り、一定時間(例えば30分)はヒートポンプ冷房運転を続けた後、再び前記と同様の動作を繰り返す。
(ii)閾値(例えば18℃)に達したら一定時間(例えば30秒間)圧縮機運転周波数を下げ、外気導入しても結露を発生しない温度に空気調和機の吹出温度又は空気調和機の吹出口周辺の温度を上昇させてから外気冷房運転に切り替える。
As a timing for lowering the compressor frequency as shown by the curve D before switching to the outside air cooling operation, for example, any one of the following controls may be adopted.
(I) When the outside air temperature reaches a certain temperature (for example, 18.5 ° C.) that is close to a predetermined set temperature (threshold) to some extent, the operating frequency of the compressor is lowered, and the temperature at which no condensation occurs even when outside air is introduced (for example, 15 to 16 ° C.) is operated to increase the temperature of the air conditioner or the temperature around the air outlet of the air conditioner, and when it reaches a threshold value (for example, 18 ° C.), the operation is switched to the outside air cooling operation. If the threshold is not reached even after a certain time (for example, 30 minutes), the process returns to the heat pump cooling operation, and after the heat pump cooling operation is continued for a certain time (for example, 30 minutes), the same operation is repeated again.
(ii) When the threshold value (for example, 18 ° C.) is reached, the compressor operating frequency is lowered for a certain period of time (for example, 30 seconds), and the temperature at which the air conditioner blows out or the air conditioner at the temperature at which no condensation occurs even when outside air is introduced Switch to outside air cooling operation after raising the ambient temperature.

本実施例の具体的制御例を図5に示すフローチャートで説明する。まず最初は、通常、ヒートポンプ運転モード(ヒートポンプ冷房運転)で運転が開始される(ST1)。ヒートポンプ運転モードでの運転が開始されると、図1に示す外気ダンパ7は閉じられ、吸気ダンパ6は開に制御され、空気調和機の圧縮機9が運転開始される(ST2)。この運転中に外気温度が低下し、ある閾値(18℃)まで達すると(ST3)、図3に示す運転動作設定手段30は外気冷房モード(外気冷房運転)に切り替える(ST4)。この切り替えの際、まず圧縮機周波数を低い値として(ST5)、一定時間(本実施例では30秒)経過後(ST6)、外気ダンパを開とし、吸気ダンパを閉にするようダンパを切り換え、外気を導入すると共に、圧縮機を停止する(ST7)。外気冷房モードで運転中に、外気温度がある閾値(18+3℃)まで上昇すると(ST8)、再びヒートポンプ運転モードとなり、ダンパを切り替えて室内空気を導入すると共に、圧縮機を起動し、以下同様な制御が繰り返えされる。   A specific control example of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. First, the operation is normally started in the heat pump operation mode (heat pump cooling operation) (ST1). When the operation in the heat pump operation mode is started, the outside air damper 7 shown in FIG. 1 is closed, the intake damper 6 is controlled to be opened, and the compressor 9 of the air conditioner is started to operate (ST2). When the outside air temperature decreases during this operation and reaches a certain threshold value (18 ° C.) (ST3), the operation operation setting means 30 shown in FIG. 3 switches to the outside air cooling mode (outside air cooling operation) (ST4). At the time of this switching, the compressor frequency is first set to a low value (ST5), and after a predetermined time (30 seconds in this embodiment) has elapsed (ST6), the outside air damper is opened and the damper is switched to close the intake damper. While introducing the outside air, the compressor is stopped (ST7). When the outside air temperature rises to a certain threshold value (18 + 3 ° C.) during operation in the outside air cooling mode (ST8), the heat pump operation mode is entered again, the damper is switched, the room air is introduced, the compressor is started, and so on. Control is repeated.

図5に示す制御例では、ステップ6(ST6)において、30秒経過すれば、空気調和機の吹出温度が高めの値となり、外気を導入しても、外気が露点温度に達して結露するのを防止できることを前提としている。しかし、より確実に結露を防止するためには、吹出温度が外気導入しても結露を発生しない温度になったことを吹出温度センサ4で確認してから外気冷房モードに切り替えるようにすると更に確実に結露を防止できる。   In the control example shown in FIG. 5, in step 6 (ST6), if 30 seconds elapses, the air temperature of the air conditioner becomes a high value, and even if outside air is introduced, the outside air reaches the dew point temperature and condensation occurs. It is assumed that it can be prevented. However, in order to prevent condensation more reliably, it is more reliable to switch to the outside air cooling mode after confirming with the blowing temperature sensor 4 that the temperature is such that no condensation occurs even when outside air is introduced. Condensation can be prevented.

また、外気湿度センサ(図示せず)を更に設け、外気温度及び外気湿度が予め定められた範囲の場合に外気を導入して前記外気冷房モードで運転を行うようにすれば結露防止に効果的である。   Further, if an outside air humidity sensor (not shown) is further provided and the outside air is introduced and the operation is performed in the outside air cooling mode when the outside air temperature and the outside air humidity are in a predetermined range, it is effective in preventing condensation. It is.

以上説明した本実施例によれば、空気調和機の運転によるヒートポンプ運転モード(ヒートポンプ冷房運転)と、外気導入のみによる外気冷房モード(外気冷房運転)とを、交互に切換えて運転しても結露の発生を防止できる空気調和装置を得ることができる。   According to the present embodiment described above, even if the heat pump operation mode (heat pump cooling operation) based on the operation of the air conditioner and the outside air cooling mode (outside air cooling operation) based on only the introduction of the outside air are alternately switched, dew condensation occurs. It is possible to obtain an air conditioner that can prevent the occurrence of the above.

なお、情報通信室や電算機室の空調では、上述したように結露の発生を防止することで、サーバ等に水がつくことによる電気系統の絶縁低下等の問題を回避できるが、逆に冬季などに室内の湿度が低下(乾燥)しすぎると、静電気が発生し易くなりサーバ等の破損を生じる可能性がある。図1に示す実施例では吹出湿度センサ5を備えており、湿度も検出して湿度が設定値まで低下した場合には、加湿器(図示せず)などを用いて加湿し、静電気の発生も防止するようにしている。   In the air conditioning of information and communication rooms and computer rooms, the prevention of condensation as described above can avoid problems such as insulation degradation of the electrical system due to water on the server, etc. For example, if the indoor humidity is too low (dry), static electricity is likely to occur and the server or the like may be damaged. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, a blowout humidity sensor 5 is provided. When the humidity is detected and the humidity is reduced to a set value, the humidifier is humidified using a humidifier (not shown) or the like to generate static electricity. I try to prevent it.
