各ヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルにおける圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１は、インバータ９１，９２，９３，９４から供給される交流電圧により動作するモータを有し、そのモータの回転数に応じて能力が変化する。インバータ９１，９２，９３，９４は、商用交流電源９０の電圧を整流し、整流後の直流電圧を後述のシステムコントローラ１０からの指令に応じたスイッチングにより所定周波数の交流電圧に変換し、変換した交流電圧を圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のモータに対する駆動電力として出力する。   The compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 in each heat pump refrigeration cycle have a motor that operates with an AC voltage supplied from the inverters 91, 92, 93, 94, and the capacity changes according to the rotation speed of the motor. To do. The inverters 91, 92, 93, 94 rectify the voltage of the commercial AC power supply 90, convert the rectified DC voltage to an AC voltage of a predetermined frequency by switching according to a command from the system controller 10 described later, and convert the voltage The AC voltage is output as drive power for the motors of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71.

インバータ９１，９２，９３，９４の出力電圧の周波数（出力周波数）Ｆを変化させることにより、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のモータの回転数が変化し、それに伴い圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１の能力が変化する。   By changing the frequency (output frequency) F of the output voltage of the inverters 91, 92, 93, 94, the rotational speeds of the motors of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 are changed. The ability of 51 and 71 changes.

インバータ９１，９２，９３，９４の出力端と圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のモータとの間の通電ラインに、電流センサ９６，９７，９８，９９がそれぞれ取付けられる。電流センサ９６，９７，９８，９９は、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のモータに流れる電流Ｉｍをそれぞれ運転電流として検知する。   Current sensors 96, 97, 98, and 99 are attached to energization lines between the output terminals of the inverters 91, 92, 93, and 94 and the motors of the compressors 21, 41, 51, and 71, respectively. Current sensors 96, 97, 98, 99 detect the current Im flowing through the motors of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 as operating currents, respectively.

水配管２ｂの水は、水熱交換器６０および水熱交換器３０のそれぞれ水流路を通り、水配管２ａへと導かれる。また、水配管２ｂに入口水温センサ９ｂが設けられ、水配管２ａに出口水温センサ９ａが設けられる。入口水温センサ９ｂは熱源機に導入される水の温度Ｔｗｉを検知し、出口水温センサ９ａは熱源機から導出される水の温度Ｔｗｏを検知する。   The water in the water pipe 2b passes through the water flow paths of the water heat exchanger 60 and the water heat exchanger 30, respectively, and is guided to the water pipe 2a. In addition, an inlet water temperature sensor 9b is provided in the water pipe 2b, and an outlet water temperature sensor 9a is provided in the water pipe 2a. The inlet water temperature sensor 9b detects the temperature Twi of water introduced into the heat source unit, and the outlet water temperature sensor 9a detects the temperature Two of water derived from the heat source unit.

水配管２ｂと水熱交換器６０の水流路との間の水配管に、ポンプ８０が配設される。ポンプ８０は、インバータ９５から供給される交流電圧により動作するモータを有し、そのモータの回転数に応じて能力（揚程）が変化する。インバータ９５は、商用交流電源９０の電圧を整流し、整流後の直流電圧を後述のモジュールコントローラ１１ａからの指令に応じたスイッチングにより所定周波数の交流電圧に変換し、変換した交流電圧をポンプ８０のモータに対する駆動電力として出力する。このインバータ９５の出力電圧の周波数（出力周波数）Ｆを変化させることにより、ポンプ８０のモータの回転数が変化し、それに伴いポンプ８０の能力が変化する。   A pump 80 is disposed in the water pipe between the water pipe 2 b and the water flow path of the water heat exchanger 60. The pump 80 has a motor that is operated by the AC voltage supplied from the inverter 95, and the capacity (lift) changes according to the rotation speed of the motor. The inverter 95 rectifies the voltage of the commercial AC power supply 90, converts the rectified DC voltage into an AC voltage having a predetermined frequency by switching according to a command from a module controller 11a described later, and converts the converted AC voltage to the pump 80. Output as drive power to the motor. By changing the frequency (output frequency) F of the output voltage of the inverter 95, the number of rotations of the motor of the pump 80 changes, and the capacity of the pump 80 changes accordingly.

The system controller 10 is also connected to the flow rate adjusting valves 4a, 4b,... 4n, the flow rate sensor 5, the flow rate adjusting valve 7, and the differential pressure sensor 8.

システムコントローラ１０は、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎ、流量調整弁４ａ，４ｂ，…４ｎ、および流量調整弁７を統括的に制御するもので、主要な機能として、第１制御部１０１および第２制御部１０２を含む。   The system controller 10 controls the heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n, the flow rate adjusting valves 4a, 4b,... 4n, and the flow rate adjusting valve 7 as a main function. 2 control unit 102 is included.

第１制御部１０１は、負荷である利用側機器３ａ，３ｂ，…３ｎの要求能力（室内空気温度Ｔａと設定温度Ｔｓとの差）に応じて、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎの運転台数および流量調整弁４ａ，４ｂ，…４ｎの調整量（開度）を制御する。   The first control unit 101 operates the number of heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n according to the required capacity (difference between the indoor air temperature Ta and the set temperature Ts) of the usage-side devices 3a, 3b,. And the adjustment amount (opening degree) of the flow rate adjusting valves 4a, 4b,.

第２制御部１０２は、流量センサ５の検知流量Ｑｔに応じて、流量調整弁７の調整量（開度）を制御する。   The second control unit 102 controls the adjustment amount (opening degree) of the flow rate adjustment valve 7 according to the detected flow rate Qt of the flow rate sensor 5.

モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、図３に示すように、主要な機能として、能力制御部１１１、レリース制御部１１２、および能力補償制御１１３を含む。   As shown in FIG. 3, the module controller 11a includes a capability control unit 111, a release control unit 112, and a capability compensation control 113 as main functions.

能力制御部１１１は、出口水温センサ９ｂで検知された水温Ｔｗｏが予め設定された目標出口水温Ｔｗｔとなるように、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を制御する。   The capacity control unit 111 controls the capacity (operating frequency F) of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 so that the water temperature Two detected by the outlet water temperature sensor 9b becomes a preset target outlet water temperature Twt.

レリース制御部１１２は、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のいずれかの運転電流（電流センサ９６，９７，９８，９９の検知電流）Ｉｍが異常上昇して許容上限値に近い規定値Ｉｍｓに達した場合、その異常上昇した圧縮機の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を低減するいわゆるレリース制御を実行する。   The release control unit 112 increases the operating current (detected current of the current sensors 96, 97, 98, 99) Im of any one of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 to a specified value Ims close to the allowable upper limit value. If it has been reached, so-called release control is performed to reduce the abnormally increased compressor capacity (operation frequency F).

能力補償制御１１３は、上記レリース制御が実行された場合、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のうち上記レリース制御の対象となった圧縮機を除く１つまたは複数の圧縮機（運転中）の能力を、上記レリース制御による上記能力低減分だけ増加する。   When the release control is executed, the capability compensation control 113 is for one or a plurality of compressors (during operation) excluding the compressor 21, 41, 51, 71 that is the target of the release control. The capacity is increased by the capacity reduction by the release control.

なお、能力補償制御１１３は、具体的には、上記レリース制御が実行された場合、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のうち上記レリース制御の対象となった圧縮機のそのレリース制御による能力低減量を、そのレリース制御の対象となった圧縮機を除く１つまたは複数の圧縮機（運転中）で案分する。そして、能力補償制御１１３は、上記レリース制御の対象となった圧縮機を除く１つまたは複数の圧縮機（運転中）の能力を、上記案分した能力分だけ増加する。   Note that, when the release control is executed, the capability compensation control 113 specifically reduces the capability of the compressor 21, 41, 51, 71 that is subject to the release control by the release control. The amount is apportioned by one or more compressors (in operation) excluding the compressors subject to the release control. Then, the capacity compensation control 113 increases the capacity of one or a plurality of compressors (during operation) excluding the compressor that is the target of the release control by the prorated capacity.

モジュールコントローラ１１ｂ，…１１ｎも、同じく、能力制御部１１１、レリース制御部１１２、能力補償制御部１１３を含む。   Similarly, the module controllers 11b,... 11n include a capability control unit 111, a release control unit 112, and a capability compensation control unit 113.

つぎに、システムコントローラ１０が実行する制御を図４のフローチャートを参照しながら説明する。   Next, the control executed by the system controller 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

システムコントローラ１０は、負荷である利用側機器３ａ，３ｂ，…３ｎの要求能力（室内空気温度Ｔａと設定温度Ｔｓとの差）に応じて、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎの運転台数および流量調整弁４ａ，４ｂ，…４ｎの調整量（開度）を制御する（ステップＳ１）。そして、システムコントローラ１０は、流量センサ５の検知流量Ｑｔに応じて、流量調整弁７の調整量（開度）を制御する（ステップＳ２）。この後、システムコントローラ１０は、ステップＳ１の処理に戻る。   The system controller 10 determines the number of operating heat sources 1a, 1b,... 1n and the flow rate according to the required capacity (difference between the indoor air temperature Ta and the set temperature Ts) of the use side devices 3a, 3b,. The amount of adjustment (opening) of the regulating valves 4a, 4b,... 4n is controlled (step S1). Then, the system controller 10 controls the adjustment amount (opening degree) of the flow rate adjusting valve 7 according to the detected flow rate Qt of the flow rate sensor 5 (step S2). Thereafter, the system controller 10 returns to the process of step S1.

一方、モジュールコントローラ１１ａが実行する制御を図５のフローチャートを参照しながら説明する。なお、モジュールコントローラ１１ｂ，…１１ｎが実行する制御は、モジュールコントローラ１１ａが実行する制御と同じなので、その説明は省略する。   On the other hand, the control executed by the module controller 11a will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Since the control executed by the module controllers 11b,... 11n is the same as the control executed by the module controller 11a, the description thereof is omitted.

モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、出口水温センサ９ｂで検知された水温Ｔｗｏが予め設定された目標出口水温Ｔｗｔとなるように、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を制御する（ステップＳ１１）。   The module controller 11a controls the capacity (operation frequency F) of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 so that the water temperature Two detected by the outlet water temperature sensor 9b becomes a preset target outlet water temperature Twt (step F). S11).

そして、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍと規定値Ｉｍｓとを比較する（ステップＳ１２）。圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが規定値Ｉｍｓ未満の場合（ステップＳ１２のＮＯ）、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、上記ステップＳ１１の処理に戻る。   Then, the module controller 11a compares the operating current Im of the compressor 21 with the specified value Ims (step S12). When the operating current Im of the compressor 21 is less than the specified value Ims (NO in step S12), the module controller 11a returns to the process in step S11.

設置条件や環境条件などの変化により、熱源機１ａにおける第１〜第４ヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルの各空気熱交換器に送られる空気の温度や量に偏りが生じ、それが原因で例えば第１ヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルの運転状態が悪化して熱源機１ａにおける圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが異常上昇した場合を例に説明する。   Due to changes in installation conditions, environmental conditions, etc., the temperature and amount of air sent to the air heat exchangers of the first to fourth heat pump refrigeration cycles in the heat source unit 1a are biased, which causes the first heat pump, for example. A case will be described as an example where the operating state Im of the compressor 21 in the heat source unit 1a is abnormally increased due to deterioration of the operating state of the refrigeration cycle.

圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが異常上昇して規定値Ｉｍｓに達した場合（ステップＳ１２のＹＥＳ）、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、インバータ９１の出力周波数Ｆを所定値Ｆａだけ低減するレリース制御を実行する（ステップＳ１３）。このレリース制御の実行により、圧縮機２１の能力が低減し、圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが規定値Ｉｍｓ未満に抑制される。この抑制により、熱源機１ａにおける電気機器の不要な温度上昇を防ぐことができる。   When the operating current Im of the compressor 21 abnormally increases and reaches the specified value Ims (YES in step S12), the module controller 11a executes release control for reducing the output frequency F of the inverter 91 by a predetermined value Fa ( Step S13). By executing this release control, the capacity of the compressor 21 is reduced, and the operating current Im of the compressor 21 is suppressed to less than the specified value Ims. By this suppression, it is possible to prevent an unnecessary temperature rise of the electric device in the heat source device 1a.

このレリース制御の実行に伴い、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、レリース制御の対象となった圧縮機２１を除く他の運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機（圧縮機４１，５１，７１のいずれか）の能力を、そのレリース制御による上記能力低減分だけ増加する（ステップＳ１４）。   Along with the execution of the release control, the module controller 11a controls one or a plurality of compressors (any one of the compressors 41, 51, and 71) in operation other than the compressor 21 subjected to the release control. The capacity is increased by the capacity reduction by the release control (step S14).

具体的には、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、レリース制御による圧縮機２１の能力低減量を他の運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機（圧縮機４１，５１，７１のいずれか）で案分し、案分した能力分にそれぞれ対応する周波数ΔＦだけ１つまたは複数のインバータ（インバータ９２，９３，９４のいずれか）の出力周波数Ｆをそれぞれ増加する。つまり、運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機（圧縮機４１，５１，７１のいずれか）の能力が、上記案分した能力分だけそれぞれ増加される。なお、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、上記案分に際し、案分の割合を運転中の圧縮機４１，５１，７１の定格容量や現時点の能力などに基づいて決定する。   Specifically, the module controller 11a apportions the amount of reduction in the capacity of the compressor 21 based on the release control by one or more compressors (any one of the compressors 41, 51, 71) that are operating. The output frequency F of one or a plurality of inverters (any one of the inverters 92, 93, 94) is increased by a frequency ΔF corresponding to the prorated capacity. That is, the capacity of one or a plurality of compressors (any one of the compressors 41, 51, 71) in operation is increased by the estimated capacity. In addition, the module controller 11a determines the proportion of the proportion based on the rated capacity of the compressors 41, 51, 71 in operation, the current capacity, and the like.

このように、レリース制御による圧縮機２１の能力低減量を他の運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機（圧縮機４１，５１，７１のいずれか）で案分し、案分した能力分だけ運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機（圧縮機４１，５１，７１のいずれか）の能力をそれぞれ増加することにより、レリース制御による圧縮機２１の能力の低減を補うことができる。   In this way, the amount of reduction in the capacity of the compressor 21 by release control is apportioned by one or a plurality of compressors (any one of the compressors 41, 51, 71) in operation, and only the apportioned ability By increasing the capacity of one or more compressors (any one of the compressors 41, 51, 71) in operation, it is possible to compensate for the reduction in the capacity of the compressor 21 due to release control.

レリース制御によって圧縮機２１の能力が低減したままでは、熱源機１ａのエネルギー消費効率いわゆるＣＯＰ（Coefficient-Of-Performance）が低下してしまうが、レリース制御による圧縮機２１の能力低減分を他の運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機（圧縮機４１，５１，７１のいずれか）の能力増加によって補うので、熱源機１ａのＣＯＰの低下を防ぐことができる。   If the capacity of the compressor 21 is reduced by the release control, the energy consumption efficiency of the heat source unit 1a is reduced, so-called COP (Coefficient-Of-Performance), but the capacity reduction of the compressor 21 by the release control is reduced to other values. Since it compensates by the capability increase of the compressor (one of the compressors 41, 51, and 71) during a driving | operation, the fall of COP of the heat source machine 1a can be prevented.

システムコントローラ１０は、ステップＳ１４の処理後、上記ステップＳ１１の処理に戻る。   The system controller 10 returns to the process of step S11 after the process of step S14.

The module controller 11a includes a capability control unit 211 and a release control unit 212, as shown in FIG.

能力制御部２１１は、出口水温センサ９ｂで検知された水温Ｔｗｏが予め設定された目標出口水温Ｔｗｔとなるように、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を制御する。また、能力制御部２１１は、システムコントローラ１０の後述の能力補償制御部２０３から能力の増加を指令された場合に、その指令に応じた能力増加分だけ圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を増加する制御を適宜に実行する。   The capacity control unit 211 controls the capacity (operation frequency F) of the compressors 21, 41, 51, and 71 so that the water temperature Two detected by the outlet water temperature sensor 9b becomes a preset target outlet water temperature Twt. When the capacity controller 211 is instructed to increase the capacity from the capacity compensation controller 203 (to be described later) of the system controller 10, the capacity of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 is increased by the capacity according to the command. Control to increase (operating frequency F) is appropriately executed.

レリース制御部２１２は、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１のいずれかの運転電流（電流センサ９６，９７，９８，９９の検知電流）Ｉｍが異常上昇して許容上限値に近い規定値Ｉｍｓに達した場合、その異常上昇した圧縮機の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を低減するいわゆるレリース制御を実行する。   The release control unit 212 increases the operating current (detected current of the current sensors 96, 97, 98, 99) Im of any one of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 to the specified value Ims close to the allowable upper limit value. If it has been reached, so-called release control is performed to reduce the abnormally increased compressor capacity (operation frequency F).

第１制御部２０１は、負荷である利用側機器３ａ，３ｂ，…３ｎの要求能力（室内空気温度Ｔａと設定温度Ｔｓとの差）に応じて、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎの運転台数および流量調整弁４ａ，４ｂ，…４ｎの調整量（開度）を制御する。   The first control unit 201 operates the number of heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n according to the required capacity (difference between the indoor air temperature Ta and the set temperature Ts) of the usage-side devices 3a, 3b,. And the adjustment amount (opening degree) of the flow rate adjusting valves 4a, 4b,.

第２制御部２０２は、流量センサ５の検知流量Ｑｔに応じて、流量調整弁７の調整量（開度）を制御する。   The second control unit 202 controls the adjustment amount (opening degree) of the flow rate adjustment valve 7 according to the detected flow rate Qt of the flow rate sensor 5.

能力補償制御部２０３は、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎのいずれかでレリース制御が実行された場合、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎのうちそのレリース制御が実行された熱源機を除く運転中の１つまたは複数の熱源機の能力を、そのレリース制御による能力低減分だけ増加するべく、その旨を熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎのモジュールコントローラ１１ａ，１１ｂ，…１１ｎに指令する。   When the release control is executed in any one of the heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n, the capability compensation control unit 203 is in operation excluding the heat source device in which the release control is executed among the heat source devices 1a, 1b,. In order to increase the capability of the one or more heat source units by an amount corresponding to the capability reduction by the release control, this is commanded to the module controllers 11a, 11b,... 11n of the heat source units 1a, 1b,.

なお、能力補償制御部１０３は、具体的には、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎのいずれかでレリース制御が実行された場合、そのレリース制御が実行された熱源機のそのレリース制御による能力低減量を、そのレリース制御が実行された熱源機を除く運転中の１つまたは複数の熱源機で案分する。そして、能力補償制御部１０３は、上記レリース制御が実行された熱源機を除く運転中の１つまたは複数の熱源機の能力を、上記案分した能力分だけ増加する。   Note that, when the release control is executed in any one of the heat source units 1a, 1b,... 1n, the capability compensation control unit 103 specifically reduces the capability of the heat source unit in which the release control is executed by the release control. The quantity is prorated by one or more operating heat source machines excluding the heat source machine for which the release control was performed. Then, the capability compensation control unit 103 increases the capability of the one or more heat source devices in operation excluding the heat source device on which the release control is performed by the apportioned capability.

他の構成は第１実施形態と同じである。よって、その説明は省略する。
つぎに、モジュールコントローラ１１ａが実行する制御を図８のフローチャートを参照しながら説明する。なお、モジュールコントローラ１１ｂ，…１１ｎが実行する制御は、モジュールコントローラ１１ａが実行する制御と同じなので、その説明は省略する。Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment. Therefore, the description is omitted.
Next, the control executed by the module controller 11a will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Since the control executed by the module controllers 11b,... 11n is the same as the control executed by the module controller 11a, the description thereof is omitted.

モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、出口水温センサ９ｂで検知された水温Ｔｗｏが予め設定された目標出口水温Ｔｗｔとなるように、圧縮機２１，４１，５１，７１の能力（運転周波数Ｆ）を制御する（ステップＳ２１）。   The module controller 11a controls the capacity (operation frequency F) of the compressors 21, 41, 51, 71 so that the water temperature Two detected by the outlet water temperature sensor 9b becomes a preset target outlet water temperature Twt (step F). S21).

そして、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍと規定値Ｉｍｓとを比較する（ステップＳ２２）。圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが規定値Ｉｍｓ未満の場合（ステップＳ２２のＮＯ）、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、上記ステップＳ２１の処理に戻る。   Then, the module controller 11a compares the operating current Im of the compressor 21 with the specified value Ims (step S22). When the operating current Im of the compressor 21 is less than the specified value Ims (NO in step S22), the module controller 11a returns to the process of step S21.

設置条件や環境条件などの変化により、熱源機１ａにおける第１〜第４ヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルの各空気熱交換器に送られる空気の温度や量に偏りが生じ、それが原因で例えば第１ヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルの運転状態が悪化して熱源機１ａにおける圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが異常上昇した場合を例に説明する。   Due to changes in installation conditions, environmental conditions, etc., the temperature and amount of air sent to the air heat exchangers of the first to fourth heat pump refrigeration cycles in the heat source unit 1a are biased, which causes the first heat pump, for example. A case will be described as an example where the operating state Im of the compressor 21 in the heat source unit 1a is abnormally increased due to deterioration of the operating state of the refrigeration cycle.

熱源機１ａにおける圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが異常上昇して規定値Ｉｍｓに達した場合（ステップＳ２２のＹＥＳ）、モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、インバータ９１の出力周波数Ｆを所定値Ｆａだけ低減するレリース制御を実行する（ステップＳ２３）。このレリース制御の実行により、圧縮機２１の能力が低減し、圧縮機２１の運転電流Ｉｍが規定値Ｉｍｓ未満に抑制される。この抑制により、熱源機１ａにおける電気機器の不要な温度上昇を防ぐことができる。   When the operating current Im of the compressor 21 in the heat source unit 1a abnormally increases and reaches the specified value Ims (YES in step S22), the module controller 11a releases the output frequency F of the inverter 91 by a predetermined value Fa. Is executed (step S23). By executing this release control, the capacity of the compressor 21 is reduced, and the operating current Im of the compressor 21 is suppressed to less than the specified value Ims. By this suppression, it is possible to prevent an unnecessary temperature rise of the electric device in the heat source device 1a.

一方、システムコントローラ１０が実行する制御を図９のフローチャートを参照しながら説明する。
システムコントローラ１０は、負荷である利用側機器３ａ，３ｂ，…３ｎの要求能力（室内空気温度Ｔａと設定温度Ｔｓとの差）に応じて、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎの運転台数および流量調整弁４ａ，４ｂ，…４ｎの調整量（開度）を制御する（ステップＳ３１）。さらに、システムコントローラ１０は、流量センサ５の検知流量Ｑｔに応じて、流量調整弁７の調整量（開度）を制御する（ステップＳ３２）。On the other hand, the control executed by the system controller 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
The system controller 10 determines the number of operating heat sources 1a, 1b,... 1n and the flow rate according to the required capacity (difference between the indoor air temperature Ta and the set temperature Ts) of the use side devices 3a, 3b,. The adjustment amount (opening degree) of the adjustment valves 4a, 4b,... 4n is controlled (step S31). Furthermore, the system controller 10 controls the adjustment amount (opening degree) of the flow rate adjusting valve 7 according to the detected flow rate Qt of the flow rate sensor 5 (step S32).

そして、システムコントローラ１０は、熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎにおけるレリース制御の実行を監視する（ステップＳ３３）。熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎのいずれにおいてもレリース制御が実行されない場合（ステップＳ３３のＮＯ）、システムコントローラ１０は、上記ステップＳ３１の処理に戻る。   Then, the system controller 10 monitors the execution of release control in the heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n (step S33). When release control is not executed in any of the heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n (NO in step S33), the system controller 10 returns to the processing in step S31.

例えば熱源機１ａでレリース制御が実行された場合（ステップＳ３３のＹＥＳ）、システムコントローラ１０は、レリース制御が実行された熱源機１ａを除く他の運転中の１つまたは複数の熱源機（熱源機１ｂ，…１ｎのいずれか）の能力を、そのレリース制御による能力の低減分だけ増加する（ステップＳ３４）。   For example, when the release control is executed by the heat source device 1a (YES in step S33), the system controller 10 performs one or more heat source devices (heat source devices) in operation other than the heat source device 1a for which the release control is executed. 1b,..., 1n) is increased by the reduction of the capability by the release control (step S34).

具体的には、システムコントローラ１０は、上記レリース制御による熱源機１ａの能力低減量を他の運転中の１つまたは複数の熱源機（熱源機１ｂ，…１ｎのいずれか）で案分し、この案分の結果を運転中の１つまたは複数の熱源機（熱源機１ｂ，…１ｎのいずれか）のモジュールコントローラ（モジュールコントローラ１１ｂ〜１１ｎのいずれか）に知らせる。なお、システムコントローラ１０は、上記案分に際し、案分の割合を熱源機１ｂ〜１ｎの定格容量や現時点の能力などに基づいて決定する。   Specifically, the system controller 10 apportions the amount of reduction in the capacity of the heat source unit 1a by the release control using one or more heat source units (any one of the heat source units 1b,. The result of this plan is notified to the module controller (any one of the module controllers 11b to 11n) of one or more heat source machines (any one of the heat source machines 1b, ... 1n) in operation. In addition, the system controller 10 determines the proportion of the proportion based on the rated capacity of the heat source units 1b to 1n, the current capability, and the like.

案分の知らせを受けた運転中の例えば熱源機１ｂのモジュールコントローラ１１ｂは、ステップＳ２１の能力制御の処理において、当該熱源機１ｂに案分された能力分だけ、当該熱源機１ｂにおける運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機の能力を増加する。この場合、モジュールコントローラ１１ｂは、例えば、当該熱源機１ｂに案分された能力分を当該熱源機１ｂにおける運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機で案分し、案分した能力分にそれぞれ対応する周波数ΔＦだけ運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機の運転周波数Ｆを増加する。つまり、当該熱源機１ｂにおける運転中の１つまたは複数の圧縮機の総能力が、当該熱源機１ｂに案分された能力分だけ増加される。   For example, the module controller 11b of the heat source unit 1b that has received the promising information is operating in the heat source unit 1b by the amount of the capacity allocated to the heat source unit 1b in the capacity control process of step S21. Increase the capacity of one or more compressors. In this case, the module controller 11b, for example, apportions the capacity apportioned to the heat source apparatus 1b by one or more compressors in operation in the heat source apparatus 1b, and corresponds to the apportioned capacity respectively. The operating frequency F of one or more compressors in operation is increased by the frequency ΔF to be operated. That is, the total capacity of the one or more compressors in operation in the heat source apparatus 1b is increased by the capacity allocated to the heat source apparatus 1b.

案分の知らせを受けた他の運転中の熱源機１ｃ〜１ｎのモジュールコントローラ１１ｃ〜１１ｎも、熱源機１ｂのモジュールコントローラ１１ｂと同様の制御を行う。   The module controllers 11c to 11n of the other operating heat source units 1c to 1n that have received the promising news perform the same control as the module controller 11b of the heat source unit 1b.

このように、レリース制御による熱源機１ａの能力低減量を他の運転中の熱源機１ｂ〜１ｎで案分し、案分した能力分だけ熱源機１ｂ〜１ｎの能力をそれぞれ増加することにより、レリース制御による熱源機１ａの能力の低減を補うことができる。   In this way, by reducing the capacity reduction amount of the heat source unit 1a by the release control in the other heat source units 1b to 1n, and increasing the capacity of the heat source units 1b to 1n by the allocated amount, Reduction of the capability of the heat source unit 1a by release control can be supplemented.

レリース制御によって熱源機１ａの能力が低減したままでは、熱源装置１のエネルギー消費効率いわゆるＣＯＰが低下してしまうが、レリース制御による熱源機１ａの能力低減分を他の運転中の熱源機１ｂ〜１ｎの能力増加によって補うので、熱源装置１のＣＯＰの低下を防ぐことができる。   If the capability of the heat source unit 1a is reduced by the release control, the energy consumption efficiency so-called COP of the heat source device 1 is reduced. However, the reduced amount of the capability of the heat source unit 1a by the release control is reduced to another heat source unit 1b in operation. Since it is compensated by the increase in capacity of 1n, it is possible to prevent the COP of the heat source device 1 from being lowered.

システムコントローラ１０は、ステップＳ３４の処理後、上記ステップＳ３１の処理に戻る。   The system controller 10 returns to the process of step S31 after the process of step S34.

Or it is good also as a structure which performs both the capability increase of a compressor, and the rotation speed change of the outdoor fans 26,46,56,76.

モジュールコントローラ１１ａは、冷却運転時、空気熱交換器２３ａ〜７３ｂにおける冷媒の凝縮温度（温度センサ２７ａ〜７７ｂの検知温度）Ｔｃと外気温度Ｔｏとの差であるいわゆる熱交ピンチを求め、その熱交ピンチが一定となるように室外ファン２６〜７６の回転数を制御しており、この回転数制御を上記能力増加に利用する。同様の回転数制御を他のモジュールコントローラ１１ｂ〜１１ｎも行う。   During the cooling operation, the module controller 11a obtains a so-called heat exchange pinch that is the difference between the refrigerant condensing temperature (detected temperature of the temperature sensors 27a to 77b) Tc and the outside air temperature To in the air heat exchangers 23a to 73b. The rotational speed of the outdoor fans 26 to 76 is controlled so that the crossing pinch is constant, and this rotational speed control is used for the above-mentioned increase in capacity. Similar rotation speed control is performed by the other module controllers 11b to 11n.

上記各実施形態では、４つのヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルおよび２つの水熱交換器が搭載された熱源機１ａ，１ｂ，…１ｎを例に説明したが、各熱源機におけるヒートポンプ式冷凍サイクルの個数および水熱交換器の個数については適宜に選定可能である。   In each of the above embodiments, the heat source apparatuses 1a, 1b,..., 1n equipped with four heat pump refrigeration cycles and two water heat exchangers have been described as an example, but the number of heat pump refrigeration cycles and water in each heat source apparatus The number of heat exchangers can be selected as appropriate.

According to the required capacity (difference between the indoor air temperature Ta and the set temperature Ts) of the usage-side devices 3a, 3b,. Although the example of controlling the number of operating units of 1n has been described, the system controller 10 is calculated from the water temperature detected by the inlet water temperature sensor 9b and the outlet water temperature sensor 9a of each heat source device 1a, 1b,. It is also possible to control the number of operating heat source devices 1a, 1b,... 1n according to the required capacity of the heat source device 1.
