Abstract
Description
本發明係關於一種製冷系統及其控制方法,特別是一種複合式製冷系統及其控制方法。 The invention relates to a refrigeration system and a control method thereof, in particular to a composite refrigeration system and a control method thereof.
時下一般食品販賣場所,例如超級市場、便利商店等,均設置有開放櫃、冷藏櫃和冷凍櫃等食品保鮮櫃。當食品保鮮櫃內溫度高於一溫度上限值時,則控制單元驅動壓縮機運作以製造冷氣,並開啟進氣閥門使冷媒經過蒸發器,利用致冷風扇之吹送令櫃體內的空氣可流經蒸發器,因此藉由櫃體內之空氣與蒸發器進行熱交換,即可降低櫃體內溫度,而達到保鮮之目的。 Nowadays, general food vending places, such as supermarkets, convenience stores, etc., are equipped with food preservation cabinets such as open cabinets, refrigerators, and freezers. When the temperature in the food preservation cabinet is higher than an upper temperature limit, the control unit drives the compressor to produce cold air, and opens the intake valve to allow the refrigerant to pass through the evaporator, and the air in the cabinet is blown by the refrigerating fan. Through the evaporator, the heat exchange between the air in the cabinet and the evaporator can reduce the temperature in the cabinet and achieve the purpose of preservation.
食品保鮮櫃依據消費者的購物習慣分成尖峰時段與離峰時段。尖峰時段為消費者較常消費的時候,一般為早上7點到晚上11點。離峰時段為消費者較少消費的時候,一般為晚上11點到早上7點。然而,由於食品保鮮櫃的耗電量集中於尖峰時段,且尖峰時段的電價又較離峰時段高約2到3倍,使得食品販賣場所每個月所需支出的電費居高不下。 Food preservation cabinets are divided into peak periods and off-peak periods according to consumers' shopping habits. Peak hours are when consumers spend more often, generally from 7 am to 11 pm. Off-peak hours are when consumers consume less, usually from 11pm to 7am. However, because the power consumption of food preservation cabinets is concentrated in peak hours, and the electricity price during peak hours is about 2 to 3 times higher than that of off-peak hours, the monthly electricity bills required by food vending establishments remain high.
本發明在於提供一種複合式製冷系統及其控制方法,藉以轉移尖峰用電負載並提升電力系統供電的穩定性。 The present invention is to provide a composite refrigeration system and a control method thereof, so as to transfer the peak power load and improve the stability of the power supply of the power system.

The composite refrigeration system includes a first refrigeration system, a second refrigeration system, an ice storage tank, a third expansion valve, a heat exchanger and a fluid driver. The first refrigeration system includes a first compressor, a first condenser, a first expansion valve, and a first evaporator. The first compressor, the first condenser, the first expansion valve and the first evaporator are connected in sequence through a pipeline to form a first cooling cycle (such as refrigeration). The second refrigeration system includes a second compressor, a second condenser, a second expansion valve, and a second evaporator. The second compressor, the second condenser, the second expansion valve, and the second evaporator are connected in sequence through pipelines to form a second cooling cycle (such as refrigeration). The ice storage tank is arranged in parallel with the first condenser. The first compressor, the ice storage tank, the first expansion valve, and the first evaporator are connected in sequence through a pipeline to form a third cooling cycle (such as cold-release refrigeration). One end of the third expansion valve is connected to the pipeline between the first condenser and the first expansion valve. The other end of the third expansion valve is connected to the ice storage tank. The first compressor, the first condenser, the ice storage tank, the third expansion valve and the ice storage tank are connected in sequence through a pipeline to form a fourth cooling cycle (such as cold storage). The fluid driver, the ice storage tank and the heat exchanger are connected in sequence through the pipeline to form a fifth cooling cycle (cooling release). The heat exchanger is arranged in parallel with the second condenser. The second compressor, the heat exchanger, the second expansion valve, and the second evaporator are connected in sequence through a pipeline to form a sixth cooling cycle (such as refrigeration).
本發明之另一實施例所揭露之複合式製冷系統的控制方法包含下列步驟。提供複合式製冷系統。判斷當前時間是否處於離峰時段。若是,則判斷儲冰槽內液體的液位高度是否達預設上限值。若是,則令複合式製冷系統以冷藏冷凍模式運轉。若否,則令複合式製冷系統以儲冷冷藏模式運轉。若否,則令複合式製冷系統以釋冷模式運轉。 The control method of the compound refrigeration system disclosed in another embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps.

請參閱圖2與圖8。圖8為圖2之複合式製冷系統的控制方法,此控制方法是由控制器20所執行。首先,提供如圖2之複合式製冷系統10。接著,如步驟S100所示,判斷當前時間是否處於離峰時段。若是離峰時段(電價較便宜),則如步驟S200所示,透過儲冰槽300上之液位計L所獲得的液位置判斷儲冰槽300內液體的液位高度是否達一預設上限值。若是,則代表儲冰槽300內之冰塊量達上限,故如步驟S210所示,令複合式製冷系統10以冷藏冷凍模式(如圖6所示)運轉。若否,則代表儲冰槽300內之冰塊量未達上限,故如步驟S300所示,暫令複合式製冷系統10以儲冷冷藏模式(如圖4所示)運轉。接著,如步驟S310所示,透過第二溫度計T2所獲得的溫度值判斷複合式製冷系統10之第一蒸發器140出口端之溫度是否達一預設下限值。若是,則代表冷藏櫃的溫度已達冷藏需求,故如
步驟S320所示,令複合式製冷系統10以儲冷模式(如圖5所示)運轉,以將多餘的冷能儲存於儲冰槽300。若否,則代表冷藏櫃的溫度尚未達到冷藏需求,故如步驟S300所示,令複合式製冷系統10繼續維持以儲冷冷藏模式(如圖4所示)運轉。
Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 8. FIG. 8 is a control method of the compound refrigeration system of FIG. 2, and the control method is executed by the
接著,於令複合式製冷系統10以儲冷模式(如圖5所示)運轉(步驟S320)後,如步驟S330所示,透過第二溫度計T2所獲得的溫度值判斷複合式製冷系統10之第一蒸發器140出口端之溫度是否達一預設上限值。若是,則代表冷藏櫃的溫度尚未達到冷藏需求,故需重新執行步驟S100,判斷當前時間是否處於離峰時段,以接續重新執行冷藏冷凍模式。若否,則代表冷藏櫃的溫度仍達到冷藏需求,故如步驟S320所示,令複合式製冷系統10繼續維持以儲冷模式運轉。
Next, after the combined
反之,若是尖峰時段(電價較貴),則如步驟S400所示,令複合式製冷系統10以釋冷模式(如圖7所示)運轉,以透過儲冰槽300於離峰時段預存的冷能來發揮冷藏與冷凍功能,進而可節省複合式製冷系統10的電費成本。舉例來說,若離峰電價為1.8元與尖峰電價為4.44元,則本實施例之複合式製冷系統10應字於超級市場或便利商店一年約可節省5萬多元,即年約節省10-15%電費。
Conversely, if it is a peak period (the electricity price is more expensive), as shown in step S400, the
此外,於步驟S400之後,如步驟S410所示,判斷複合式製冷系統10之儲冰槽300內液體的溫度是否達一預設上限值。若是,則代表儲冰槽300內冰塊的存量不足,故如步驟S210所示,令複合式製冷系統10轉為以一冷藏模式運轉。若否,則代表儲冰槽300內冰塊的存量仍足以支持冷藏與冷凍功能所需之冷能,故如步驟S400所示,令複合式製冷系統10維持以釋冷模式運轉。
In addition, after step S400, as shown in step S410, it is determined whether the temperature of the liquid in the
根據上述實施例之複合式製冷系統及其控制方法,透過將儲冰槽、冷藏、冷凍複合,使得複合式製冷系統可依當前時段、儲冰槽冰塊存量及冷藏櫃的溫度來決定以冷藏冷凍模式、儲冷冷藏模式、儲冷模式或釋冷模式運轉。 如此一來,即能夠於電價較低的離峰時段讓儲冰槽儲存冷能,再於電價較高的尖峰時段釋放儲冰槽預儲存的冷能來供冷藏與冷凍使用,進而轉移尖峰用電負載、提升電力系統供電的穩定性及降低電費成本。 According to the composite refrigeration system and its control method of the above embodiment, by combining the ice storage tank, refrigeration, and freezing, the composite refrigeration system can determine the refrigeration system according to the current time period, ice storage in the ice storage tank and the temperature of the refrigerator. Operation in freezing mode, cold storage and refrigeration mode, cold storage mode or cold release mode. In this way, the ice storage tank can store cold energy during off-peak hours when the electricity price is low, and then release the pre-stored cold energy in the ice storage tank for cold storage and freezing during the peak hours when the electricity price is higher, and then transfer the peak use Electric load, improve the stability of the power supply of the power system and reduce the cost of electricity.
此外,儲冰槽係並聯設置於冷藏系統的冷凝器。與冷凍相比冷藏的溫度較高,使得儲冷所需的耗能較低,進而降低儲冷所需之能耗。 In addition, the ice storage tank is connected in parallel to the condenser of the refrigeration system. Compared with freezing, the temperature of refrigeration is higher, which makes the energy consumption of cold storage lower, thereby reducing the energy consumption of cold storage.
此外,本實施例之複合式製冷系統可沿用既有冷藏冷凍設備,不須新增液態冷媒泵等昂貴設備,大幅降低導入成本。 In addition, the composite refrigeration system of this embodiment can use existing refrigeration and refrigeration equipment without adding expensive equipment such as liquid refrigerant pumps, which greatly reduces the cost of introduction.
