Description

    BACKGROUND Technical Field
  • The present invention relates to the technical field of a water chilling device, in particular to a multi-head single-pass sectional compression water chilling device.
    • Description of Related Art
  • The existing water chilling devices all take refrigerating capacity as a primary parameter, and then determine rated chilled water flow by rated supply and return water temperature. The refrigerating capacity and the chilled water flow of the water chilling devices are in a relatively fixed relation, and the chilled water flow is not determined according to the flow required by a terminal of a project. In operation of the water chilling devices, the condition that the refrigerating capacity is not matched with the chilled water flow often occurs. Specifically, under a certain load condition, the refrigerating capacity of a single water chilling device can meet the demand of the refrigerating capacity at the terminal, while the flow provided by the water chilling device cannot meet the demand of the flow at the terminal. Since chilled water is a carrier of the refrigerating capacity, insufficient chilled water flow means that there is no refrigerating capacity in certain areas, leading to lack of comfort effect. In this case, since a single water chilling device can already meet the demand of refrigerating capacity, the water chilling devices are in a low-load condition with low efficiency when the number of the water chilling devices is increased, and the operation efficiency is low. If the number of the water chilling devices is not increased, the output of the water pump is generally increased, and the water chilling device provides chilled water with a flow rate larger than the rated flow rate by larger lift loss, which causes that the flow rate of the chilled water in the water chilling devices is too high, and the operation efficiency is also reduced. In the operation process, the flow of chilled water in the water chilling device is in a condition of not matching with the refrigerating capacity in most of time, which causes that the efficiency of the water chilling device is always in a low state.
  • Therefore, a new technical scheme is required to solve the above problem.

The combined evaporator is formed by sequentially connecting and combining a plurality of sectional evaporators, and the combined evaporator is internally provided with an evaporator tube bundle for use by all the sectional evaporators. The sectional condensers and the sectional evaporators are in one-to-one correspondence, a compressor is connected between each sectional condenser and a corresponding one of the sectional evaporators, and the compressor, the sectional condenser and the sectional evaporator form a refrigeration function section.
  • Further, the refrigeration function section further comprises a throttling device.

  • Further, the compressors are each selected from a centrifugal compressor, a magnetic levitation compressor and a screw compressor for use in combination, and the specific combination can be selected according to the demand of refrigeration conditions, such that the overall power of the compressor meets the refrigeration requirements and the refrigeration effect is ensured.

  • According to the load demands and device parameters of a system at the terminal of the project, the present invention calculates and determines a proper chilled water flow, so that a refrigeration pump can keep the sufficient chilled water flow at the terminal with lower energy consumption, and the chilled water, as a carrier of the refrigerating capacity, can be continuously and fully distributed in all areas at the terminal of the project.
  • The present invention designs and selects the power or the form of the compressor (such as the centrifugal compressor, the magnetic levitation compressor and the screw compressor) for use in combination according to conditions of the design cold loads, the function industries (such as hospitals, markets and office buildings), the climate zones (such as a cold zone, a hot-summer and cold-winter zone and a hot-summer and warm-winter zone) and the like of the project.
