Description

공기 조화 시스템{Air conditioning system}Air conditioning system

본 발명은 공기 조화 시스템에 관한 것이다. The present invention relates to an air conditioning system.

일반적으로, 공기 조화 시스템은, 압축기, 응축기, 팽창 부재 및 증발기로 이루어지는 냉매 순환 사이클에 관한 것으로서, 냉매의 흐름 방향에 따라서 냉방 사이클과 난방 사이클로 구별된다. In general, an air conditioning system relates to a refrigerant circulation cycle consisting of a compressor, a condenser, an expansion member, and an evaporator, and is classified into a cooling cycle and a heating cycle according to the flow direction of the refrigerant.

상기 공기 조화 시스템은 실내 공간을 실외 온도보다 높게 유지하거나, 실내 온도보다 낮게 유지하도록 하는데 적용된다. The air conditioning system is applied to keep indoor space above outdoor temperature or below room temperature.

또한, 상기 공기 조화 시스템에 사방 밸브와 같은 방향 전환 밸브가 장착되어, 냉방 사이클과 난방 사이클이 선택적으로 수행되도록 할 수도 있다. The air conditioning system may also be equipped with a diverter valve, such as a four-way valve, to allow a cooling cycle and a heating cycle to be selectively performed.

한편, 가정용 냉난방 겸용 공기 조화기, 즉 히트 펌프는 실외 온도가 섭씨 5도 이하이고, 습도가 높은 저온 고습 조건에서 난방 운전을 하면 실외 열교환기 표면에 서리가 발생하게 된다. 그리고, 상기 서리는 시간이 지남에 따라 실외 열교환기 표면에 얼어붙어서 실외 공기와 냉매간의 열교환 효율을 저하시키는 요인이 된다. On the other hand, the home air conditioning combined air conditioner, that is, the heat pump has an outdoor temperature of 5 degrees Celsius or less, when the heating operation in a low temperature and high humidity conditions with high humidity causes frost on the surface of the outdoor heat exchanger. In addition, the frost may freeze on the surface of the outdoor heat exchanger as time passes, thereby reducing the heat exchange efficiency between the outdoor air and the refrigerant.

이러한 경우, 대부분의 히트 펌프 시스템에서는 실외 열교환기의 서리 제거 를 위하여, 냉매 사이클의 역으로 동작시켜 실외 열교환기가 응축기의 기능을 수행하도록 한다. 그러면, 실외 열교환기의 표면에 응결된 서리가 녹아 내리게 된다. In this case, in most heat pump systems, in order to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger, the heat exchanger operates in reverse of the refrigerant cycle so that the outdoor heat exchanger functions as a condenser. Then, the condensation frost melts on the surface of the outdoor heat exchanger.

그러나, 종래의 경우, 제상 운전 과정에서 실외 열교환기가 응축기로 작용하게 되고, 냉매가 실외 열교환기를 이루는 배관에 균일하게 분포하게 된다. 실질적으로, 실외 열교환기는 수직하게 설치되므로, 제상 과정에서 실외 열교환기의 상측에서 녹아내리는 응축수는 하강하면서 실외 열교환기의 하단에서 다시 결빙하게 된다. 즉, 실외 열교환기의 하단에서 누적 결빙이 발생하게 된다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 고온의 냉매가 실외 열교환기에 균일하게 분포하므로, 실외 열교환기의 하단에서는 제상이 완전히 이루어지지 못하거나, 제상 시간이 길어지게 되어, 난방 운전율이 감소하는 단점이 있다. However, in the conventional case, the outdoor heat exchanger acts as a condenser during the defrosting operation, and the refrigerant is uniformly distributed in the pipe forming the outdoor heat exchanger. In fact, since the outdoor heat exchanger is installed vertically, the condensate melted on the upper side of the outdoor heat exchanger during the defrosting process descends and freezes again at the bottom of the outdoor heat exchanger. That is, cumulative freezing occurs at the bottom of the outdoor heat exchanger. Nevertheless, since the high-temperature refrigerant is uniformly distributed to the outdoor heat exchanger, the lower end of the outdoor heat exchanger is not completely defrosted, or the defrosting time is long, there is a disadvantage that the heating operation rate is reduced.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 종래 공기 조화 시스템의 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 제안된 것으로서, 실외 열교환기의 냉매 배관에 가열 장치가 부착되도록 하여 제상이 이루어지도록 하는 공기 조화 시스템을 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다.The present invention has been proposed to improve the above problems of the conventional air conditioning system, and an object of the present invention is to provide an air conditioning system in which a heating device is attached to a refrigerant pipe of an outdoor heat exchanger so that defrost is performed.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 공기 조화 시스템에는, 내부에 냉매가 흐르고, 직선부와 헤어 밴드로 이루어지는 냉매 배관과, 상기 냉매 배관의 외주면에 접촉되는 열교환핀이 포함되는 실외 열교환기; 상기 실외 열교환기의 측면에 부착되며, 상기 헤어 밴드가 수용되기 위한 홈이 다수 개 배열되는 가열 장치가 포함되고, 제상 필요 시점에서 상기 가열 장치로 전원이 인가되어 상기 냉매 배관을 가열하는 것을 특징으로 한다.An air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention for achieving the above object, the refrigerant flows therein, and includes a refrigerant pipe consisting of a straight portion and a hair band, and a heat exchange fin in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the refrigerant pipe Outdoor heat exchanger; It is attached to the side of the outdoor heat exchanger, and includes a heating device is arranged a plurality of grooves for accommodating the hair band, characterized in that the power is applied to the heating device when defrosting required to heat the refrigerant pipe do.

상기와 같은 구성을 이루는 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 공기 조화 시스템에 의하여, 제상 과정에서 실외 열교환기의 상단과 하단으로 고온의 냉매가 차등 분배되므로, 제상 시간이 단축되는 효과가 있다. By the air conditioning system according to the embodiment of the present invention having the above configuration, since the high-temperature refrigerant is differentially distributed to the top and bottom of the outdoor heat exchanger during the defrosting process, the defrosting time is shortened.

즉, 누적 결빙이 생기는 실외 열교환기의 하단부로 많은 양의 냉매가 공급되도록 하여, 실외 열교환기의 상단과 하단의 제상 종료 시점 간격이 최소화됨으로써, 단시간에 제상이 완료되어 난방 운전 효율이 증가하게 되는 효과가 있다. That is, a large amount of refrigerant is supplied to the lower end of the outdoor heat exchanger that accumulates freezing, thereby minimizing the interval between end points of defrosting of the upper and lower ends of the outdoor heat exchanger, thereby completing defrosting in a short time and increasing heating operation efficiency. It works.
