INVENTOR.
CLARENCE L. RINGQUIST Aww ATTORNEYS United States Patent 3,127,929 AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM WITH ONE PIPE HEATTNG AND CODLING Clarence L. Ringquist, La Crosse, Wis., assignor to The Trane Company, La Crosse, Wis., a corporation of Wisconsin Filed May 29, 1961, Ser. No. 121,287 7 Claims. (Cl. 165-22) This invention relates generally to a combination heating and cooling air conditioning system and more specifically to an air conditioning system in which heated and chilled water is available to the heat exchange members at all times, if desired.
In recent years the air conditioning industry has tended to provide air conditioning systems in which a supply of hot and cold water is provided simultaneously to the heat exchange members in the system. Prior to this invention a separate heat exchange coil for each source of water was provided in each heat exchange unit. In other words, each heat exchange unit normally would have two heat exchange coils, one for the hot fluid and one for the cold fluid.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an air conditioning system in which both hot and cold heat exchange fluid may be supplied simultaneously to a heat exchange unit and the heat exchange unit requires only a single heat exchange coil.
Another object of the invention is to provide an air conditioning system in which both hot and cold heat exchange fluid may be supplied simultaneously to a heat exchange unit through a one-pipe heating and a one-pipe cooling conduit system.
A third object of the invention is to provide an air conditioning system in which hot and cold heat exchange fluid may be supplied simultaneously to a heat exchange unit and in which the cold fluid is conditioned by a refrigeration system and the hot fluid may partially or wholly be heated by the condenser of the refrigeration system.
A fourth object of the invention is to provide an air conditioning system in which hot and cold heat exchange fluid may by supplied simultaneously to a heat exchange unit and in which the hot and cold fluid is supplied to 'the units in a one-pipe type of circulation system. To elucidate, a single cold supply pipe and a single hot pipe are supplied to each zone and the desired heat exchange fluid is taken from one of these pipes and fed through the heat exchange coil. The fluid passing through the heat exchange coil is then returned back to the supply from whence it came and is mixed with the heat exchange fluid being supplied to the other units on this pipe.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will be clearly apparent as the specification proceeds to describe the invention with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
The figure is.a schematic view of the preferred form of an air conditioning system incorporating the principles of my invention.
Looking now to the figure, there is shown the preferred form of my invention. For the basis of a disclosure, a plurality of heat exchange units 10 and 12 with a single heat exchange coil 14 are located in a plurality of zones 15 (shown in dotted lines), the number of units and the number of zones depending upon the particular requirements of the enclosure to be conditioned. Heat exchange units 10 are shown in the position to receive cold heat exchange fluid and heat exchange unit 12 are shown receiving hot heat exchange fluid.
Chilled water is supplied to each heat exchange unit from chiller 16 by chilled water pump 18. Hot water 3,127,329 Patented Apr. 7, 1964 "ice is supplied to each heat exchange unit from heater 20 by hot water pump 22.
A refrigeration system consisting of compressor 23, condensers 24 and 26, expansion means 28, and chiller 16 is employed to cool the returning chilled water and to heat the returning hot water. As is usual in refrigeration systems, hot gas is supplied from compressor 23 to either or both of condensers 24 and 26. The liquified condensed refrigerant from condensers 24 and 26 is then expanded through expansion means 28 into chiller 16 to cool the returning chilled water. Vaporized refrigerant is returned from chiller 16 to compressor 23 for compression and is re-cycled through the system. Valves 31) are provided so that all or part of the hot gas may be condensed in condenser 24 to heat the warm return water in order to utilize the heat normally rejected. Heater 20 is necessary under conditions when the amount of heat rejected by condenser 24 is not suflicient to heat the warm water to a high enough temperature to handle the heating requirements of the area to be conditioned.
Operation The operation of only two units 10 and 12 in only one zone will be discussed keeping in mind that the other units in the zone and in other zones operate in the same manner. As pointed out previously, unit 10 is shown in the cold water receiving position and unit 12 is shown in the hot water receiving position. It being understood that in extreme weather conditions when either all heating or all cooling is required in the conditioned areas that either the refrigeration system or the heating system may be shut down in order to save operating expense.
Each heat exchange unit 10 or 12 is provided with a single heat exchange coil 14 with temperature responsive three- way valves 32 and 33 connected thereto with valve 32 connected at the inlet end and valve 33 at the outlet end. Hot water from conduit 34 is supplied to conduit 36 and cold water from conduit 38 is supplied to conduit 40.
Looking at heat exchange unit 10, cold water flows from conduit 40 through conduit 42, three-way valve 32, conduit 44, heat exchange coil 14, conduit 46, three-way valve 33, conduit 48, and back into conduit 40 where it mixes with the water flowing to the units further down the line. This type of cooling system will herein be referred to as a one-pipe cooling system.
The hot and cold fluid in conduits 36 and 4-0 is returned to the heater 20 and the chiller 16 by way of conduit-s 54 and 56 respectively.
Thermostatic three- ways 32 and 33 on each heat exchange unit operate simultaneously in response to the temperature sensed by thermostat 58. When cooling is required by thermostat 5 8, both valves 32 and 33 place the heat exchange coil 14 in flow relation with the chilled water conduit 40. When heating is required in the area sensed by thermostat 58 valves 32 and 33 are reversed and the heat exchange coil 14 is placed in flow relationship with the hot heat exchange fluid conduit 36. The particular construction and control of the valves 32 and 33 is not described and any commercially available valve and control therefor will suflice for the purpose of this invention.
As herein described I have provided a new and novel air conditioning system employing only a single heat exchange coil for each heat exchange unit in the system and at the same time supply said heat exchange coils with a conduit system which requires only two pipes but yet offers hot and cold fluid to each unit simultaneously.
Although I have described in detail the preferred embodiments of my invention, it is contemplated that many changes may be made Without departing from the scope or spirit of my invention and I desire to be limited only by the claims.
