特許第5929372号公報Patent No. 5929372

前記車両用空気調和装置では、目標吹出温度の上昇に伴って、第1膨張弁の弁開度を大きくすると同時に第2膨張弁の弁開度を小さくする制御を行っている。前記車両用空気調和装置では、第1膨張弁及び第2膨張弁を同時に制御することによって冷媒回路を流通する冷媒の状態が不安定となるため、車室内に供給する空気の温度を目標吹出温度とする制御の即応性が低下するおそれがある。 In the vehicle air conditioner, control is performed to increase the valve opening degree of the first expansion valve and simultaneously decrease the valve opening degree of the second expansion valve as the target blowout temperature rises. In the vehicle air conditioner, the state of the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circuit becomes unstable by controlling the first expansion valve and the second expansion valve at the same time, so the temperature of the air supplied to the vehicle interior is changed to the target outlet temperature. There is a possibility that the responsiveness of the control to be decreased.

A heat radiator for heat dissipation, a heat absorber provided in the air flow passage for absorbing heat of the refrigerant, an outdoor heat exchanger provided outside the vehicle compartment for radiating or absorbing heat of the refrigerant, and decompressing the refrigerant flowing into the outdoor heat exchanger. 1 expansion valve and a 2nd expansion valve for decompressing the refrigerant flowing into the heat absorber, the refrigerant discharged from the compressor is circulated in the order of the radiator and the outdoor heat exchanger to radiate the heat, and the radiator and the outdoor The temperature of a radiator is acquired in a vehicle air conditioner that performs dehumidifying and cooling in which the refrigerant that radiates heat in the heat exchanger is decompressed by the second expansion valve and the refrigerant that is decompressed by the second expansion valve absorbs heat in the heat absorber. When the radiator temperature acquisition unit and the temperature acquired by the radiator temperature acquisition unit are lower than the target temperature, the first expansion valve is adjusted so that the valve opening becomes smaller, and the valve of the first expansion valve is adjusted. A direction in which the valve opening degree of the second expansion valve is increased when the temperature acquired by the radiator temperature acquisition unit is lower than the target temperature in the state where the opening degree is the minimum opening degree within the set range. And a control unit for adjusting to.

これにより、第1膨張弁の弁開度が調整された後に第2膨張弁の弁開度が調整されることから、冷媒回路を流通する冷媒の状態が安定した状態で第1及び第2膨張弁の弁開度が調整される。 Accordingly, since the valve opening degree of the second expansion valve is adjusted after the valve opening degree of the first expansion valve is adjusted, the first and second expansions are performed in a stable state of the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circuit. The valve opening of the valve is adjusted.

本発明によれば、冷媒回路を流通する冷媒の状態を安定させた状態で第1及び第2膨張弁の弁開度を調整することができるので、車室内に供給する空気の温度を目標吹出温度とする制御の即応性を向上させることが可能となる。 According to the present invention, the valve openings of the first and second expansion valves can be adjusted in a state in which the state of the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circuit is stabilized, so that the temperature of the air supplied to the vehicle interior can be adjusted to the target value.

以上のように構成された車両用空気調和装置1では、空調ユニット10及び冷媒回路20を用いて車室内の空気の温度及び湿度を調節する。具体的には、車両用空気調和装置1は、車室内の温度を低下させる冷房運転と、車室内の湿度を低下させると共に温度を低下させる除湿冷房運転と、車室内の温度を上昇させる暖房運転と、車室内の湿度を低下させると共に温度を上昇させる第1及び第2除湿暖房運転と、を行う。 In the vehicle air conditioner 1 configured as described above, the temperature and humidity of the air in the vehicle compartment are adjusted using the air conditioning unit 10 and the refrigerant circuit 20. Specifically, the vehicle air conditioner 1 includes a cooling operation that lowers the temperature inside the vehicle compartment, a dehumidifying cooling operation that lowers the humidity inside the vehicle compartment, and a lowering temperature, and a heating operation that raises the temperature inside the vehicle compartment. Then, the first and second dehumidifying heating operations for decreasing the humidity in the vehicle compartment and increasing the temperature are performed.

冷房運転を行う場合には、空調ユニット10において、室内送風機12を駆動させるとともに、エアミックスダンパ17を0%の開度に設定する。また、冷媒回路20においては、第1膨張弁23aを全開、第2膨張弁23bを所定の弁開度、第1及び第2電磁弁24a,24bを閉鎖した状態で圧縮機21を駆動させる。 When performing the cooling operation, in the air conditioning unit 10, the indoor blower 12 is driven and the air mix damper 17 is set to an opening degree of 0%. Further, in the refrigerant circuit 20, the compressor 21 is driven with the first expansion valve 23a fully opened, the second expansion valve 23b a predetermined valve opening, and the first and second electromagnetic valves 24a, 24b closed.

これにより、冷媒回路20において、圧縮機21から吐出された冷媒は、図1に示すように、放熱器15、弁開度が全開の第1膨張弁23a、室外熱交換器22、所定の弁開度の第2膨張弁23b、吸熱器14の順に流通して圧縮機21に吸入される。 Thereby, in the refrigerant circuit 20, as shown in FIG. 1, the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 21 includes the radiator 15, the first expansion valve 23a with the valve opening fully opened, the outdoor heat exchanger 22, and the predetermined valve. The second expansion valve 23b having the opening degree and the heat absorber 14 flow in this order and are sucked into the compressor 21.

冷媒回路20を流通する冷媒は、エアミックスダンパ17の開度が0%であるため放熱器15において放熱することなく、室外熱交換器22において放熱し、第2膨張弁23bにおいて減圧され、吸熱器14において吸熱する。 The refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circuit 20 does not radiate heat in the radiator 15 because the opening of the air mix damper 17 is 0%, but radiates heat in the outdoor heat exchanger 22 and is decompressed in the second expansion valve 23b to absorb heat. Heat is absorbed in the container 14.

空気流通路11を流通する空気は、吸熱器14において吸熱する冷媒と熱交換することによって目標吹出温度TAOまで冷却されて車室内に吹き出される。 The air flowing through the air flow passage 11 is cooled to the target outlet temperature TAO by exchanging heat with the refrigerant that absorbs heat in the heat absorber 14, and is blown into the vehicle interior.

また、除湿冷房運転を行う場合には、冷房運転時における冷媒回路20の冷媒の流路において、空調ユニット10のエアミックスダンパ17の開度を0%よりも大きい開度に設定する。 When performing the dehumidifying and cooling operation, the opening degree of the air mix damper 17 of the air conditioning unit 10 is set to an opening degree larger than 0% in the refrigerant passage of the refrigerant circuit 20 during the cooling operation.

これにより、冷媒回路20を流通する冷媒は、放熱器15及び室外熱交換器22において放熱し、第2膨張弁23bにおいて減圧され、吸熱器14において吸熱する。 As a result, the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circuit 20 radiates heat in the radiator 15 and the outdoor heat exchanger 22, is decompressed in the second expansion valve 23b, and absorbs heat in the heat absorber 14.

It is adjusted to the target outlet temperature TAO and is blown into the passenger compartment.

さらに、第2除湿暖房運転を行う場合には、空調ユニット10において、室内送風機12を駆動させるとともに、エアミックスダンパ17を0%よりも大きい開度に設定する。また、冷媒回路20においては、第1膨張弁23aを閉鎖、第2膨張弁23bを所定の弁開度、第1電磁弁24aを開放,第2電磁弁24bを閉鎖した状態で圧縮機21を駆動させる。 Further, in the case of performing the second dehumidifying and heating operation, in the air conditioning unit 10, the indoor blower 12 is driven and the air mix damper 17 is set to an opening degree larger than 0%. In the refrigerant circuit 20, the compressor 21 is closed with the first expansion valve 23a closed, the second expansion valve 23b opened at a predetermined valve opening, the first solenoid valve 24a opened, and the second solenoid valve 24b closed.

ステップS1において除湿冷房運転を行っていると判定した場合に、ステップS2においてCPUは、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であるか否かを判定する。加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定した場合にはステップS3に処理を移し、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定しなかった場合には吹出温度制御処理を終了する。
ここで、目標加熱空気温度TCOは、車室内に供給する空気の温度を目標吹出温度TAOとするために必要な放熱器15における空気の加熱温度である。
(Step S2)
When it is determined in step S1 that the dehumidifying and cooling operation is being performed, the CPU in step S2 determines whether or not the temperature T detected by the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO. When it is determined that the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO, the process proceeds to step S3, and the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO. When the determination is not made, the blowout temperature control process is ended.
Here, the target heating air temperature TCO is the heating temperature of the air in the radiator 15 which is necessary for setting the temperature of the air supplied to the vehicle interior to the target outlet temperature TAO.

(ステップS3)
ステップS2において加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定した場合に、ステップS3においてCPUは、第1膨張弁23aの開度を所定開度小さくし、ステップS4に処理を移す。
ここで、冷媒回路20においては、第1膨張弁23aの開度を小さくすることによって、放熱器15を含む高圧側の圧力が高くなり、放熱器15における冷媒の温度が高くなる。
(Step S3)
When it is determined in step S2 that the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO, the CPU reduces the opening degree of the first expansion valve 23a by a predetermined opening degree in step S3, and then in step S4.

Here, in the refrigerant circuit 20, by reducing the opening degree of the first expansion valve 23a, the pressure on the high-pressure side including the radiator 15 increases, and the temperature of the refrigerant in the radiator 15 increases.

(ステップS4)
ステップS4においてCPUは、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であるか否かを判定する。加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定した場合にはステップS5に処理を移し、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定しなかった場合には吹出温度制御処理を終了する。

(Step S5)
When it is determined in step S4 that the temperature T detected by the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO, the CPU determines in step S5 that the opening degree of the first expansion valve 23a is the smallest within the set range. It is determined whether or not the opening. When it is determined that the opening degree of the first expansion valve 23a is the minimum opening degree within the set range, the processing is moved to step S6, and the opening degree of the first expansion valve 23a is set to the minimum opening degree within the set range. If it is not determined that the opening degree is, the process proceeds to step S3.

(ステップS6)
ステップS5において第1膨張弁23aの開度が設定可能な範囲内の最小の開度であると判定した場合に、ステップS6においてCPUは、第2膨張弁23bの開度を所定開度大きくし、ステップS7に処理を移す。
ここで、冷媒回路20においては、第2膨張弁23bの弁開度を大きくすることによって、冷媒回路20における第1膨張弁23aと第2膨張弁23bとの間の冷媒を圧縮機21の冷媒吸入側に冷媒を流通させる。
(Step S6)
When it is determined in step S5 that the opening of the first expansion valve 23a is the minimum opening within the settable range, the CPU increases the opening of the second expansion valve 23b by a predetermined opening in step S6. , And moves the processing to step S7.
Here, in the refrigerant circuit 20, by increasing the valve opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b, the refrigerant between the first expansion valve 23a and the second expansion valve 23b in the refrigerant circuit 20 becomes the refrigerant of the compressor 21. Circulate the refrigerant on the suction side.

(ステップS7)
ステップS7においてCPUは、圧縮機21の回転数を所定回転数増加させ、ステップS8に処理を移す。
ここで、冷媒回路20においては、圧縮機21の冷媒の吐出量が増加するため、放熱器15を含む高圧側の圧力が高くなり、放熱器15における冷媒の温度が高くなる。
(Step S7)
In step S7, the CPU increases the rotation speed of the compressor 21 by a predetermined rotation speed, and shifts the processing to step S8.
Here, in the refrigerant circuit 20, since the discharge amount of the refrigerant of the compressor 21 increases, the pressure on the high pressure side including the radiator 15 increases, and the temperature of the refrigerant in the radiator 15 increases.

(ステップS8)
ステップS8においてCPUは、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であるか否かを判定する。加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定した場合にはステップS9に処理を移し、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定しなかった場合には吹出温度制御処理を終了する。
(Step S8)
In step S8, the CPU determines whether the temperature T detected by the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO. When it is determined that the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO, the process proceeds to step S9, and the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO. When the determination is not made, the blowout temperature control process is ended.

(ステップS9)
ステップS8において加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標加熱空気温度TCO未満であると判定した場合に、ステップS9においてCPUは、第2膨張弁23bの開度が設定された範囲内の最大の開度であるか否かを判定する。第2膨張弁23bの開度が設定された範囲内の最大の開度であると判定した場合にはステップS10に処理を移し、第2膨張弁23bの開度が設定された範囲内の最小の開度であると判定しなかった場合にはステップS6に処理を移す。
ここで、第2膨張弁23bにおける設定された範囲内の最大の開度は、第1及び第2除湿暖房時における第2膨張弁23bの開度よりも大きい開度である。
(Step S9)
When it is determined in step S8 that the temperature T detected by the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target heated air temperature TCO, the CPU determines in step S9 that the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b is the maximum within the set range. It is determined whether or not the opening. When it is determined that the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b is the maximum opening degree within the set range, the processing is moved to step S10, and the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b is set to the minimum within the set range. If it is not determined that the opening degree is, the process proceeds to step S6.
Here, the maximum opening degree in the set range of the second expansion valve 23b is larger than the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b during the first and second dehumidifying heating.

(ステップS10)
ステップS9において第2膨張弁23bの開度が設定可能な範囲内の最大の開度であると判定した場合に、ステップS10においてCPUは、除湿冷房運転から除湿暖房運転に運転状態を切り替えて吹出温度制御処理を終了する。
(Step S10)
When it is determined in step S9 that the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b is the maximum opening degree within the settable range, the CPU switches the operating state from the dehumidifying and cooling operation to the dehumidifying and heating operation and blows it out in step S10. The temperature control process ends.

このように、本実施形態の車両用空気調和装置によれば、コントローラ30は、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標となる温度よりも低い場合に、第1膨張弁23aを弁開度が小さくなる方向に調整し、第1膨張弁23aの弁開度が設定された範囲内の最小開度となった状態で加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標となる温度よりも低い場合に、第2膨張弁23bを弁開度が大きくなる方向に調整する。 As described above, according to the vehicle air conditioner of the present embodiment, the controller 30 opens the first expansion valve 23a when the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target temperature. When the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target temperature in a state where the valve opening degree of the first expansion valve 23a is the minimum opening degree within the set range First, the second expansion valve 23b is adjusted so that the valve opening degree increases.

これにより、冷媒回路20を流通する冷媒の状態を安定させた状態で第1及び第2膨張弁23a,23bの弁開度を調整することができるので、車室内に供給する空気の温度を目標吹出温度TAOとする制御の即応性を向上させることが可能となる。 As a result, the valve openings of the first and second expansion valves 23a and 23b can be adjusted in a state in which the state of the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant circuit 20 is stable, so that the temperature of the air supplied to the vehicle interior is targeted. It is possible to improve the responsiveness of the control for controlling the blowout temperature TAO.

また、コントローラ30は、第2膨張弁23bを弁開度が大きくなる方向に調整するとともに、圧縮機21を回転数が増加する方向に調整する。 Further, the controller 30 adjusts the second expansion valve 23b in the direction in which the valve opening degree increases, and adjusts the compressor 21 in the direction in which the rotation speed increases.

これにより、圧縮機21の冷媒の吐出量を多くすることによって、第1膨張弁23aと第2膨張弁23bとの間の冷媒を圧縮機21の冷媒吐出側に圧送し、放熱器15における圧力を上昇させることが可能となる。 Thereby, by increasing the discharge amount of the refrigerant of the compressor 21, the refrigerant between the first expansion valve 23a and the second expansion valve 23b is pressure-fed to the refrigerant discharge side of the compressor 21, and the pressure in the radiator 15 is increased. Can be increased.

また、コントローラ30は、第2膨張弁23bの弁開度が設定された範囲の最大開度となった状態で、加熱空気温度センサ35の検出温度Tが目標となる温度よりも低い場合に、第1除湿暖房または第2除湿暖房を実行する。 Further, when the detected temperature T of the heated air temperature sensor 35 is lower than the target temperature in the state where the valve opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b reaches the maximum opening degree of the set range, the controller 30 The first dehumidifying heating or the second dehumidifying heating is executed.

これにより、除湿冷房において放熱器15における放熱量が不足する場合に、第1除湿暖房または第2除湿暖房運転を行うことによって、空気加熱ヒータ16を駆動させる必要がないので、消費電力量の低減を図ることが可能となる。 As a result, when the heat radiation amount in the radiator 15 is insufficient in the dehumidifying cooling, it is not necessary to drive the air heating heater 16 by performing the first dehumidifying heating operation or the second dehumidifying heating operation, thus reducing power consumption. Can be achieved.

また、第2膨張弁23bの設定された範囲の最大開度は、除湿暖房時における第2膨張弁23bの開度よりも大きい。 Further, the maximum opening degree of the set range of the second expansion valve 23b is larger than the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b during dehumidification heating.

これにより、除湿冷房運転時において、放熱器15における圧力を最大限上昇させることが可能となるので、空気加熱ヒータ16の利用頻度を低減することが可能となる。 As a result, the pressure in the radiator 15 can be maximized during the dehumidifying and cooling operation, so that the frequency of use of the air heater 16 can be reduced.

尚、前記実施形態では、放熱器15において加熱された後の空気の温度Tcを放熱器15の温度として取得し、取得した放熱器15の温度に基づいて圧縮機21、第1及び第2膨張弁23a,23bの動作を制御するものを示している。放熱器15の温度は、放熱器15において加熱された後の空気の温度Tc以外に、例えば、放熱器15の表面温度、放熱器15における冷媒の温度や圧力、室内送風機12を駆動させる電動モータの駆動電圧、空気流通路11を流通する空気の流通量等に基づいて取得することが可能である。 In the above embodiment, the temperature Tc of the air after being heated in the radiator 15 is acquired as the temperature of the radiator 15, and the compressor 21, the first and second expansions are performed based on the acquired temperature of the radiator 15. The one for controlling the operation of the valves 23a and 23b is shown. The temperature of the radiator 15 is, in addition to the temperature Tc of the air after being heated in the radiator 15, for example, the surface temperature of the radiator 15, the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant in the radiator 15, and the electric motor for driving the indoor blower 12. Can be obtained based on the drive voltage of the, the flow rate of the air flowing through the air flow passage 11, and the like.

また、前記実施形態では、ステップS6において第2膨張弁23bの開度を所定開度大きくし、ステップS7において圧縮機21の回転数を所定回転数増加させているが、圧縮機21の回転数を所定回転数増加させた後に、第2膨張弁23bの開度を所定開度大きくしてもよい。 Further, in the above embodiment, the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b is increased by a predetermined opening degree in step S6, and the rotation speed of the compressor 21 is increased by a predetermined rotation speed in step S7. May be increased by a predetermined number of revolutions, and then the opening degree of the second expansion valve 23b may be increased by a predetermined opening degree.
