Definitions
- This invention relates to a cooling device and control method that includes a cooling circuit which prevents the migration of refrigerant.
- the aim of this invention is to realize a cooling device and its control method that prevents migration of refrigerant that occurs in the stop state of a compressor and that enhances the compressor start-up at the beginning of operation period that is right after the stop state period.
- Fig 1 is a perspective representation of a cooling device
- Fig 2 is a schematic representation of a cooling circuit
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of a cooling circuit at an alternative application of the invention.
- Cooling circuit (9) that achieves the cooling cycle and that is utilized for cooling devices (1) such as refrigerators and air conditioners include a compressor (2); an evaporator (3) that sucks the thermal energy in the environment that is cooled; a condenser (4) that transfers the thermal energy to the outer environment; a capillary tube (5) that expands the refrigerant that leaves the condenser (4) and transfers the refrigerant to the evaporator (3); a preferably two way solenoid valve (6) that prevents migration of refrigerant by blocking the flow in the stop state of compressor (2) and that rests between the condenser (4) and the capillary tube (5); a solenoid valve that prevents reverse flow to the evaporator (3) during the stop state of compressor (2) and that is situated in the compressor (2) suction part; a by-pass line (7) that is located between the solenoid valve (6) and suction part of the compressor (2), that provides the refrigerant blocked during the stop state of the compressor (2) to flow towards the
- the solenoid valve (6) allows the cooling cycle to sustain by directing the flow towards the capillary tube during the operation period and diverts the flow towards the by-pass line (7) by blocking the flow that runs towards the capillary tube (5) during the compressor (2) stop state.
- solenoid valve (6) When the compressor (2) is in operation mode, in order to sustain cooling cycle, capillary tube outlet of solenoid valve (6) opens up and by-pass line (7) outlet is blocked. If the solenoid valve (16) opens synchronously as the compressor (2) operates right at the operation period, pressure at the compressor (2) suction part decreases partially until a limit torque value which would achieve the compression function after the initial startup, is reached and during the stop state although the pressure is brought to equilibrium, a pressure difference occurs between the two parts of the compressor (2); this pressure difference generates a high current during the initial start-up of the compressor (2).
- the cooling circuit (9) includes a solenoid valve (6) that prevents migration of refrigerant by blocking the flow in the stop state of the compressor (2) and that is situated between the condenser (4) and capillary tube (5); a solenoid valve (16) that prevents reverse flow to the evaporator (3) in the compressor (2) stop state and that is installed at the suction part of the compressor (2); a by-pass line (17) that equilibrates the pressure when solenoid valve (6) is blocked in order to prevent migration of refrigerant and that is equipped between the suction and pumping parts of the compressor (2); a solenoid valve (116) that is designed on the bypass line (17); and a control mechanism (8) that controls the operation of solenoid valves (6, 16, 116) and compressor (2) ( Figure 3).
- a solenoid valve (6) that prevents migration of refrigerant by blocking the flow in the stop state of the compressor (2) and that is situated between the condenser (4) and capillary tube (5)
- solenoid valve (116) located on the by-pass line (17) opens up and allows for a flow in the direction that is opposite to the pumping direction; thus, pressure is equilibrated.
- Solenoid valve (16) located at the suction part of the compressor (2) prevents reverse flow to the evaporator (3) by closing.
- Opening of solenoid valve (16) can be delayed by the control unit (8) for a period that is from the initial start-up of the compressor (2) until the attainment of limit torque rate. Therefore, equilibrated pressure rates reserved during the stop state of the compressor (2) are preserved by the by-pass line (17) until the attainment of limit torque rate and compressor (2) realizes its pressing function and compressor's (2) drawing of high current rates is prevented.
- Cooling device (1) and the control method being the subject of invention migration of refrigerant that occurs during the stop state of the compressor (2) from the condenser (4) towards the evaporator (3) and that causes yield loss, is prevented; provided that the migration of refrigerant is prevented, pressure between the suction and pumping parts of the compressor (2) are equilibrated, easier start-up of the compressor (2) is achieved and during the initial start-up until the attainment of limit torque rate, drawing of high current rates by the compressor (2) is prevented.
