A test device capable of simulating zone-by-zone division, zone-by-zone operation, and real-time pollutant sources for verification testing of complex air conditioning systems, and a test method using the same {TEST CHAMBER CAPABLE OF ZONE DIVISION, ZONAL OPERATION, AND REAL TIME POLLUTANT SIMULATION FOR THE DEMONSTRATION TEST OF COMPLEX AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME}

The present invention relates to a test device capable of zoning by zone, operation by zone, and simulation of pollutants in real time for verification testing of a complex air conditioning system, and a test method using the same. More specifically, it relates to apartments, houses, office spaces, hotels, classrooms, waiting rooms, etc. Indoor spaces where people live or gather are divided into zones similar to actual living spaces, such as thermal environment of temperature and humidity/building load, indoor air quality environment, and simulation of occupant patterns, and the thermal environment and air quality environment are prepared, and the corresponding environment is also established. By installing complex air conditioning systems such as air conditioners, heat pumps, multi-air conditioning systems, heat recovery ventilators (ERVs), ventilation devices (for bathrooms and kitchens), exhaust fans, air purifiers, and diffusers, various residential environments, thermal environments, and air quality environments are maintained. , enabling demonstration of the above complex air conditioning system in a user environment.

Air conditioners are used to cool or heat spaces where people live. Recently, with the development of technology, not only are indoor and outdoor units installed in a 1:1 ratio, but multiple indoor units are connected to one outdoor unit, so that each space (by zone) can be separated. It has developed into a multi-air conditioner technology that can be operated individually.

In addition, in order to create a more comfortable environment, not only air conditioners but also ventilation products and air purification products are used simultaneously, and complex air conditioning systems are being developed that apply technology to simultaneously control or optimize these functions.

This complex air conditioning system is used to develop technology, display processing capacity, or perform tests to indicate energy ratings. In order to perform tests, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-1691881 (202217.1.2. notice) " A “complex environment response ventilation and air conditioning system test device” has been disclosed.

The above-described conventional ventilation and air conditioning system test device for complex environments installs an outdoor unit and an indoor unit in each chamber, gives outdoor environmental conditions to the chamber where the outdoor unit is installed, and gives indoor environmental conditions to the chamber where the indoor unit is installed, so that the actual installed unit is installed. Testing in the environment was possible.

As another conventional test device, "Device for evaluating air conditioner performance based on climate simulation" has been disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2082505 (announced on February 27, 2020).

The other conventional test devices described above simulated climates that differ from region to region in a chamber where an air conditioner is installed, allowing testing in a real environment while applying different environmental conditions to each region in which it was sold.

As another test device, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2087981 (announced on April 23, 2020) discloses the "air conditioner energy performance test device capable of simulating outdoor variable temperature and humidity environment and indoor variable sensible heat and latent heat building load."

Another test device described above was able to perform a more accurate test by simulating a more realistic environment by providing the chamber with an outdoor temperature and humidity environment and a building load based on indoor sensible and latent heat.

However, recently, when only the air conditioner is operated in a closed environment, the indoor ventilation condition is not good. Conversely, when focusing on ventilation, cooling and heating costs may increase. Therefore, the technology of the complex air conditioning system is the cutting edge technology of IoT and AI. It is developing into a technology that integrates technologies such as cooling, heating, humidification, dehumidification, ventilation, and cleanliness of individual products or complex products and operates the necessary functions optimally. However, conventional test devices are not used for IoT or AI functions. There was a problem in that accurate testing was difficult because tests based on operation could not be performed.

To solve this problem, an “air conditioning product performance testing device using a test bot for testing the performance of air conditioning products” was disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2135870 (July 20, 2020).

A conventional air conditioning product performance test device using a test bot was able to test the operating state of the air conditioning device according to the occupant pattern by having the test bot simulate the occupants.

However, conventional air conditioning product performance test devices do not provide information on real-time changes in outdoor air temperature and humidity and changes in indoor air cooling and heating load for building structures with multiple zones, so they are used in outdoor areas and spaces where air conditioners are used. Because changes in air temperature and humidity and changes in indoor air cooling and heating load could not be accurately implemented, there was a problem in that the energy performance of air conditioning and heating products used in the relevant area and space could not be tested close to the actual usage environment.

In addition, the test device according to the prior art cannot variably adjust the division for each zone, and the thermal environment, air quality environment, and user environment for each zone can be freely adjusted to conduct empirical tests for each case in which the complex air conditioning system is installed and operated. It is difficult, and although a plurality of chambers are disclosed in the prior art, the divisions of the plurality of chambers once configured are not easy to change to other divisions due to the fixed structure inside the chamber, and it is not possible to simultaneously implement the thermal environment, air quality environment, and user environment. There was a problem with having an impossible structure.

By installing and testing products of the complex air conditioning system in each zone, it is possible to accurately test the operating status of the complex air conditioning system using IoT or AI functions, such as zone-by-zone operation, real-time pollutant source analysis for verification testing of the complex air-conditioning system. The purpose is to provide a test device that can be simulated and a test method using it.

In addition, by providing an outdoor air quality environment in the second chamber and indoor pollution sources in the third chamber to more accurately simulate indoor space, it is possible to perform a more accurate test of the operating state of the complex air conditioning system. The purpose is to provide a test device and test method capable of zoning by zone, operation by zone, and simulation of pollutants in real time for empirical testing.

In addition, the load power simulator not only simulates the load of electrical appliances actually used in indoor space to test the operation of the complex air conditioning system according to the load power, but also provides power usage and smart grid environment information to the complex air conditioning system. The purpose is to provide a test device and test method capable of simulating zone-by-zone division, zone-by-zone operation, and real-time pollutant sources for empirical testing of a complex air-conditioning system that can test the operating status of a complex air-conditioning system using information.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings.

A test device 100 capable of zoning by zone, operating by zone, and simulating pollutants in real time for empirical testing of a complex air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

In this specification, the thickness of lines or the size of components shown in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience of explanation, and the terms described below are terms defined in consideration of functions in the present invention, which are defined by the user, Since it may vary depending on the operator's intention or custom, definitions of these terms should be made based on the contents throughout this specification.

First, in the present invention, the complex air conditioning system 200 refers to any air conditioning device that circulates air in a building to cool or heat the room, or perform ventilation or air purification.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the complex air conditioning system 200 includes an air conditioner including a heat pump for cooling and heating, a wall air conditioner 210', a ceiling type air conditioner 210", and an indoor unit 210 including a stand type air conditioner. , an outdoor unit 220 that is connected to the indoor unit 210 and condenses the refrigerant, a heat recovery ventilator (230, ERV) that exchanges the outdoor air with the indoor air, a diffuser 240 that supplies air indoors or discharges it to the outside, and the indoor unit 240 supplies air to the outside. It may be configured to include a ventilation device including a ventilation fan (230') that forcibly exhausts air.

Of course, the complex air conditioning system 200 can be configured to further include various types of products capable of performing air conditioning in addition to the above components.

As shown in FIG. 1, the test device 100 capable of zoning by zone, operating by zone, and simulating pollutants in real time for the verification test of a complex air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a first chamber 110, a first -It may include a first chamber 130, a second chamber 140, a third chamber 150, and a central computer 160.

As shown in FIG. 1, the first chamber 110 may be a test chamber for testing the complex air conditioning system 200, and the first chamber 110 is the indoor unit 210 constituting the complex air conditioning system 200. ) can be installed

Here, the indoor unit 210 may be a stand-type, wall-type, or ceiling-type air conditioner (210, 210', 210"), etc., and a plurality of indoor units 210 may be installed in the first chamber 110.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, the first chamber 110 is used in various indoor spaces such as apartments, houses, office spaces, hotels, classrooms, and waiting rooms to demonstrate the location where the complex air conditioning system 200 is installed. It may be divided into a plurality of zones 111 to simulate space.

An indoor thermal environment simulator (hereinafter referred to as 'AHU' (air handling unit)) is installed in each of the plurality of zones 111 of the first chamber 110 to measure the indoor thermal environment for each zone 111. can be copied.

The AHU (120) is formed with an inlet 121 that sucks in the air from each zone 111, and an outlet 122 that discharges the sucked air may be formed at the top, and the inlet 121 and the outlet 122 Between them is a blower to forcibly circulate the air, a mist sprayer 126 to spray mist to control humidity, a control heater 125 to heat the air to verify the indoor temperature, and a cooling coil to cool the air. (123) can be installed.

The AHU (120) sucks air from each zone (111) by blowing and heats it by the control heater (125) or uses the cooling coil (123) to simulate the indoor thermal environment where the complex air conditioning system (200) is installed. By simultaneously cooling and controlling the amount of mist sprayed from the mist spraying unit 126, the heated or cooled air is humidified and discharged through the discharge port 122, thereby simulating the indoor temperature and humidity thermal environment.

The AHU 120 can simulate the cooling and heating load to enable changes in the cooling and heating load of each zone 111, and the cooling and heating load may include sensible heat load and latent heat load.

When simulating the sensible heat load in summer, the AHU (120) measures sensible heat (power consumption) by operating only the blower fan (124) and control heater (125) while not operating the cooling coil (123), and measures the sensible heat load in winter. When simulating, only the blower fan 124 and the cooling coil 123 are operated without the control heater 125 operating, and the sensible heat (power consumption) is measured respectively, and the increase or decrease in sensible heat is measured by the control heater 125 or the cooling coil ( The sensible heat load acting on each zone 111 according to the season can be simulated by increasing or decreasing the sensible heat of 123).

A power meter may be installed in the AHU 120 to determine sensible heat by measuring the power consumption of each component.

The latent heat load can be simulated by supplying latent heat to each zone 111 by mist sprayed from the mist sprayer 126, and the mist sprayer 126 boils water and releases latent heat in the form of water vapor. can be supplied.

Of course, the mist spray unit 126 can simulate the latent heat load by generating mist in an ultrasonic type rather than a heating type.

More specific details of the AHU (120) can be implemented with the applicant's registered patent No. 10-2087981, “Air conditioner energy performance test device (100) capable of simulating outdoor variable temperature and humidity environments and indoor variable sensible heat and latent heat building load.” Therefore, detailed description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of AHUs 120 may be installed spaced apart in the first chamber 110, and air that simulates the indoor thermal environment in the AHUs 120 may be supplied to the ceiling where the AHUs 120 are installed. The dispersion plate portion 113, which has a plurality of dispersion holes formed therethrough, may be fixedly installed and spaced downward from the ceiling of the first chamber 110 to disperse and discharge the dispersion toward the floor.

As shown in Figures 2 and 7, the remaining ceiling space in the first chamber 110, excluding the distribution plate part 113, can be a system embedding part 115 for installing the complex air conditioning system 200. , A diffuser 240, a duct, a heat recovery ventilator 230, a ceiling air conditioner 210", etc., which are some components of the complex air conditioning system 200, may be installed in the system embedded portion 115.

At this time, the system embedded part 115 may be optionally finished with a ceiling panel while the complex air conditioning system 200 is installed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first chamber 110 may be formed surrounded by an outer wall 110a, and the outer wall 110a has an entrance door through which one can enter the inside of the first chamber 110. 110b) can be installed.

An insulating temporary wall 111a is installed inside the outer wall 110a and can be divided into a plurality of zones 111 to simulate an indoor space by the insulating temporary wall 111a, and the insulating temporary wall 111a is the first In order to correspond to various indoor spaces in the chamber 110, the position can be variably changed to partition the size of each zone 111 into a shape corresponding to the indoor space to be simulated.

For example, when the first chamber 110 is implemented as an indoor space of an apartment, each zone 111 may be a living room, each room, and a bathroom.

An insulating door 111b that allows entry into the interior of each zone 111 may be installed on the insulating wall 111a dividing each zone 111.

The AHU 120 may be installed inside the outer wall 110a dividing the first chamber 110, or may be installed outside the outer wall 110a. That is, the AHU 120 may be located inside each zone 111 or outside each zone 111 to provide an indoor thermal environment to the corresponding zone 111.

When the number of zones 111 for dividing the first chamber 110 by the insulating wall 111a is greater than the number of AHUs 120 fixed to the first chamber 110, one zone 111 A plurality of AHUs 120 may be located together,

On the other hand, if the size of the first chamber 110 is larger than the size of the indoor space to be implemented, only the AHU 120 installed in a position belonging to the indoor space is operated, and the AHU 120 not belonging to the indoor space is not operated. The test can be performed in this state.

For example, Figure 4 shows the first chamber 110 divided into four zones 111, and Figure 5 shows the first chamber 110 divided into two zones 111, one zone ( The zone 111 can also be divided into a form that includes several AHUs 120 and a distribution plate unit 113 within 111).

Here, if the zone 111 is divided so that one AHU 120 matches one zone 111, the indoor space is simulated in advance, or the corresponding zone is based on time series data previously measured in the indoor space ( 111), the sensible heat load (S.H.(i)) and latent heat load (L.H.(i)) by the AHU (120) can be simulated in real time.

When one zone 111 is divided to include a plurality of AHUs (AHU(i)...AHU(n)), the sensible heat load (S.H.(i)) in the zone 111 is ) is calculated as the sum of the sensible heat loads in the AHU (120) located in (AHU_S.H.(i))...+AHU_S.H.(n)) to control the sensible heat load occurring in the zone (111), The latent heat load (L.H.(i)) in the zone 111 is the sum of the latent heat loads in the plurality of AHUs 120 located in the zone 111 (AHU_L.H(i)...+AHU_L.H.( By calculating n)), the latent heat load occurring in the zone 111 can be controlled.
