このような従来技術の対応は、エンジンの廃熱及び冷凍サイクルの廃熱を利用してエネルギーを回収するランキンシステムであるが、これらのランキンシステムの運転は、エンジンの廃熱を利用する、すなわち、エンジンから熱を回収して運転するため、冬の時期などのような外気が寒い状況においてエンジンを始動させる場合には、エンジンが暖まりにくいことからランキンシステムをすみやかに運転させることができないという問題があった。 また、同様に、冬の時期などのような外気が寒い状況において、エンジンが十分に暖気されてからランキンシステムを運転させると、ランキンシステムがエンジン冷却水を介してエンジンの熱を回収することから、車両室内空間を除湿暖房させる場合には、暖房に用いるエンジン冷却水の温度が十分に上がらず暖房能力が不足してしまうという問題もあり、従来技術のランキンシステムを備えた廃熱回収システムにおいては、冬の時期におけるエンジンの暖気、および、室内暖房について、十分に考慮されているとは言えなかった。

According to the present invention, there are provided a compressor for compressing a refrigerant, a heat exchanger for radiating the refrigerant compressed by the compressor, and a pressure reducing device for decompressing the refrigerant after heat exchange with the outside air by the radiator. And a refrigeration cycle system having a refrigeration cycle circuit in which evaporators for heating the decompressed refrigerant are sequentially disposed, wherein the heat exchanger includes cooling water flowing through the engine coolant circuit and refrigerant flowing through the refrigeration cycle circuit. The heat exchanger performs heat exchange between the heater and the engine in the engine coolant circuit, and the heat of the refrigerant compressed by the operation of the compressor in the refrigeration cycle system is the engine. Since the cooling water flowing through the cooling water circuit can be supplied, warm-up of the engine can be promptly performed in a situation where the outside air is cold such as winter season. Also, even if the Rankine cycle system is operated after engine warm-up to recover the heat of the cooling water flowing through the engine cooling water circuit, the heat of the refrigerant compressed by the operation of the compressor in the refrigeration cycle system By supplying to the flowing cooling water, there is an advantage that the shortage of the heating capacity can be compensated when dehumidifying and heating the vehicle interior space.
また、前記熱交換器は、前記エンジン冷却水回路における前記加熱器の下流側に配設したため、前記加熱器を通過することによって温度が下がったエンジン冷却水と高温の冷媒との温度差を確保して熱交換することができるので、熱交換効率が良くなるという利点がある。
Further, since the heat exchanger is disposed on the downstream side of the heater in the engine cooling water circuit, a temperature difference between the engine cooling water whose temperature is lowered by passing through the heater and the high temperature refrigerant is secured. Since the heat exchange can be performed, there is an advantage that the heat exchange efficiency is improved.
また、前記冷凍サイクルシステムは、前記圧縮機で圧縮された冷媒を外気と熱交換させる放熱器を前記熱交換器と前記減圧装置との間に配設したので、前記熱交換器で放熱しきれない冷媒の熱を放熱器で放熱できるため、冷凍回路の効率が良くなるという利点がある。
In the refrigeration cycle system, a radiator for exchanging the refrigerant compressed by the compressor with the outside air is disposed between the heat exchanger and the pressure reducing device, so that the heat exchanger can dissipate the heat. There is an advantage that the efficiency of the refrigeration circuit is improved because the heat of the non-refrigerant can be dissipated by the radiator.
前記冷凍サイクル回路には、前記圧縮機と前記熱交換器との間と前記熱交換器と前記減圧装置との間とを接続して前記熱交換器をバイパスするバイパス路と、冷媒の流れを前記熱交換器側または前記パイパス路側に切換える切換装置とが配設されているので、例えば、前記冷凍サイクル回路における前記圧縮機の吐出側の吐出冷媒温度が前記エンジン冷却水回路における前記熱交換器の入口側の冷却水温度以下の場合に、前記熱交器で熱交換してしまうことによって、エンジンの暖気が妨げられたり、冷凍回路システムの効率が下がってしまうことを抑制できるという利点がある。
The refrigeration cycle circuit includes a bypass path connecting the compressor and the heat exchanger, the heat exchanger, and the pressure reducing device to bypass the heat exchanger, and a refrigerant flow. Since the switching device for switching to the heat exchanger side or the bypass path side is disposed, for example, the temperature of the discharge refrigerant on the discharge side of the compressor in the refrigeration cycle circuit is the heat exchanger in the engine cooling water circuit In the case where the temperature is lower than the temperature of the cooling water on the inlet side of the valve, heat exchange with the heat exchanger can advantageously prevent the warm-up of the engine from being interrupted or the efficiency of the refrigeration circuit system from being lowered. .
また、前記切換装置は、前記バイパス路の接続部に設けられた切換弁であるため、冷凍サイクル回路に切換弁を接続するのが容易であるという利点がある。
Further, since the switching device is a switching valve provided at the connection portion of the bypass path, there is an advantage that it is easy to connect the switching valve to the refrigeration cycle circuit.
さらに、前記冷凍サイクル回路における前記圧縮機の吐出側の吐出冷媒温度が、前記エンジン冷却水回路における前記熱交換器の入口側の冷却水温度より高い場合に、前記切換装置は前記熱交換器側に冷媒を流し、前記圧縮機の吐出側の吐出冷媒温度が、前記エンジン冷却水回路における前記熱交換器の入口側の冷却水温度以下の場合に、前記切換装置は前記バイパス路側に冷媒を流すように制御されるため、例えば、冷凍サイクル回路における前記圧縮機の吐出側の吐出冷媒温度が、前記エンジン冷却水回路における前記熱交換器の入口側の冷却水温度以下の場合に前記熱交器で熱交換してしまうことによって、エンジンの暖気が妨げられたり、冷凍回路の効率が下がってしまうことを確実に抑制することができるという利点がある。
Furthermore, when the discharge refrigerant temperature on the discharge side of the compressor in the refrigeration cycle circuit is higher than the cooling water temperature on the inlet side of the heat exchanger in the engine cooling water circuit, the switching device is on the heat exchanger side And the switching device causes the refrigerant to flow to the bypass passage side when the discharge refrigerant temperature on the discharge side of the compressor is equal to or lower than the cooling water temperature on the inlet side of the heat exchanger in the engine cooling water circuit. To be controlled, for example, when the discharge refrigerant temperature on the discharge side of the compressor in the refrigeration cycle circuit is equal to or lower than the cooling water temperature on the inlet side of the heat exchanger in the engine cooling water circuit There is an advantage that it is possible to reliably suppress that the warm-up of the engine is disturbed or the efficiency of the refrigeration circuit is lowered by exchanging heat.
次に、図1、図5に基づいて本発明の第1実施例を説明する。

図1は、本発明の実施例である車両用廃熱回収システム1の構成を示す図であり、本発明の廃熱回収システムは車両のエンジンから廃熱を回収する車両用廃熱回収システム1である。車両用廃熱回収システム1は、ランキンサイクルシステム2とエンジン冷却水システム3と冷凍サイクルシステム4とを備え、また、車両用廃熱回収システム1は制御装置5を有している。制御装置5はランキンサイクルシステム2、冷凍サイクルシステム4の各システムの制御を行っている。 Next, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described based on FIG. 1 and FIG.
FIG. 1 is a view showing the configuration of a vehicle waste
ランキンサイクルシステム2は、エンジンの廃熱を回収して、電力、または、エンジンをアシストする回転駆動力に変換するシステムであり、循環する作動流体を後述するエンジン23の冷却水を介して加熱する加熱器11と、加熱器11を経由した作動流体を膨張させて動力を発生する膨張機12と、膨張機12を経由した作動流体を凝縮させるランキン用凝縮器13と、ランキン用凝縮器13を経由した作動流体を加熱器11へ送出する作動流体ポンプ14を順次配設したランキンサイクル回路10を備えている。
The Rankine cycle system 2 is a system that recovers the waste heat of the engine and converts it into electric power or a rotational driving force that assists the engine, and heats the circulating working fluid via the coolant of the engine 23 described later. A heater 11; an expander 12 for expanding the working fluid via the heater 11 to generate power; a Rankine condenser 13 for condensing the working fluid via the expansion machine 12; and a Rankine condenser 13 There is provided a Rankine cycle circuit 10 in which a working fluid pump 14 for delivering the working fluid passed through to the heater 11 is sequentially disposed.
エンジン冷却水システム3は、車両に搭載された内燃機関であるエンジン23を冷却するためのシステムであり、エンジン23を冷却する冷却水が通過するエンジン23、ポンプ24、サーモスタット25、ラジエータ26を順次配設した循環路21と、循環路21の中間に配設された分岐通路22を備えたエンジン冷却水回路20を有し、分岐通路22はポンプ24とラジエータ26との間であってサーモスタット25が配設されている分岐点29で循環路21から分岐し、再び、ラジエータ26とエンジン3の間の分岐点29で循環路21に合流する。
The enginecooling water system 3 is a system for cooling the engine 23, which is an internal combustion engine mounted in a vehicle, and sequentially passes through the engine 23, the pump 24, the thermostat 25, and the radiator 26 through which cooling water for cooling the engine 23 passes. The engine cooling water circuit 20 is provided with a circulation passage 21 disposed and a branch passage 22 disposed in the middle of the circulation passage 21. The branch passage 22 is between the pump 24 and the radiator 26 and is provided with a thermostat 25. Are branched off from the circulation passage 21 at a branch point 29 where the first and second are disposed, and merge again into the circulation passage 21 at a branch point 29 between the radiator 26 and the engine 3.
The engine
ポンプ24はエンジン23を通過した冷却水を圧送し、サーモスタット25はポンプ24から圧送された冷却水を冷却水の温度によりラジエータ側または分岐通路側のいずれかへ流れ込む冷却水の量を調整する。サーモスタット25を通過してラジエータ側へ流れ込んだ冷却水はラジエータ26を通過することにより、車両の走行による走行風や図示しないファンによる送風と熱交換して冷却された後にエンジン23に送られ、サーモスタット25を通過して分岐通路側へ流れ込んだ冷却水はラジエータ26を通過することなく分岐点29を介してエンジンに送られる。例えば、サーモスタット25は、冷却水の温度が所定の第1設定温度(例えば90℃)未満の場合は冷却水をラジエータ側へ流すことなく分岐通路側へ流し、冷却水の温度が所定の第1設定温度以上の場合は冷却水を分岐通路側へ流すことなくラジエータ側へ流し、冷却水の温度に応じて、ラジエータ側へ流す冷却水の量と分岐通路側流す冷却水の量を調整する。尚、ポンプ24はエンジン23によって駆動するが、電動モータなどの他の駆動手段によって駆動されても構わない。
The pump 24 pumps the coolant that has passed through the engine 23, and the thermostat 25 adjusts the amount of coolant flowing into either the radiator side or the branch passage side according to the temperature of the coolant according to the temperature of the coolant. The coolant passing through the thermostat 25 and flowing into the radiator side passes through the radiator 26 and is cooled by exchanging heat with the traveling wind by the traveling of the vehicle or the air flow by the fan (not shown), and is sent to the engine 23. The cooling water that has passed through 25 and flowed into the branch passage side is sent to the engine via the branch point 29 without passing through the radiator 26. For example, when the temperature of the cooling water is less than a predetermined first set temperature (for example, 90 ° C.), the thermostat 25 flows the cooling water to the branch passage side without flowing it to the radiator side, and the temperature of the cooling water has a predetermined first temperature. If the temperature is higher than the set temperature, the cooling water is allowed to flow to the radiator without flowing to the branch passage, and the amount of cooling water flowing to the radiator and the amount of cooling water flowing to the branch passage are adjusted according to the temperature of the cooling water. Although the pump 24 is driven by the engine 23, it may be driven by other driving means such as an electric motor.
従って、エンジン始動当初などのエンジン23が十分に暖まっていない状態では、エンジン23を通過する冷却水も高温ではないので、冷却水はラジエータ側へ流れることなく分岐通路22を流れて再びエンジン23へ流れ込む。一方、車両が登坂中であってエンジン23が高回転で回転するような状態、夏場などでエンジン23が始動してから十分に時間が経っているような状態ではエンジン23が高温状態になっているため、冷却水も高温になっていることから、冷却水はラジエータ側へ流れてラジエータ26で冷却された後、再びエンジン23へ流れ込みエンジン23を冷却する。
Therefore, when the engine 23 is not sufficiently warmed up, such as at the start of the engine, the cooling water passing through the engine 23 is not high temperature either, so the cooling water flows through the branch passage 22 without flowing to the radiator side to the engine 23 again. Flow into. On the other hand, when the vehicle is climbing a hill and the engine 23 is rotating at a high speed, or when the engine 23 starts sufficiently in summer, etc., and the engine 23 becomes sufficiently hot, the engine 23 becomes hot. Since the cooling water is also at a high temperature, the cooling water flows to the radiator side and is cooled by the radiator 26, and then flows again to the engine 23 to cool the engine 23.
また、エンジン冷却水回路システム3は車室内空間を温めるための熱交換であるヒータコア28を有している。ヒータコア28は、エンジン23の廃熱により暖まった冷却水とヒータコア28が設置された空間の空気と熱交換することによって車室内空間の暖房を行う熱交換器であって、ヒータコア28はエンジン冷却水システム3の循環路21上であってエンジン23と分岐通路22の間に配設されている。本実施例では、ヒータコア28はエンジン冷却水システム3の循環路21上に配設されているが、循環路21から分岐して再び循環路21に合流する通路上にヒータコアを配設しても構わない。尚、その場合は、循環路21から分岐する分岐点に切換弁を設けて冷却水をヒータコア側に流したり、ヒータコア側に流さず循環路側に流す選択を行う制御を行う。
In addition, the engine coolant circuit system 3 has a heater core 28 which is a heat exchange for warming the vehicle interior space. The heater core 28 is a heat exchanger that heats the passenger compartment space by exchanging heat with cooling water warmed by waste heat of the engine 23 and air in the space where the heater core 28 is installed. The heater core 28 is engine cooling water It is disposed on the circulation passage 21 of the system 3 and between the engine 23 and the branch passage 22. In the present embodiment, the heater core 28 is disposed on the circulation passage 21 of the engine cooling water system 3. However, even if the heater core is disposed on a passage that branches from the circulation passage 21 and joins the circulation passage 21 again. I do not care. In that case, a switching valve is provided at a branch point branched from the circulation passage 21 to control to flow the cooling water to the heater core side or to flow to the circulation passage side without flowing to the heater core side.
ランキンサイクル回路10に配設されている加熱器11はエンジン冷却水回路20の分岐通路22にも配設されている加熱器11であり、ランキンサイクル回路10を循環する作動流体と、エンジン冷却水回路20を循環する冷却水との熱交換を行う加熱器11である。この加熱器11によって、ランキンサイクルシステム2は、エンジン冷却水回路20を循環する冷却水を介してエンジン廃熱を回収し、電力、または、エンジン23をアシストする回転駆動力に変換する。また、ランキンサイクル回路10に配設されている作動流体ポンプ14は加熱器11を通過する直前の冷却水の温度が所定の第2設定温度(例えば85℃)以上になると駆動し、加熱器11を通過する直前の冷却水の温度が所定の第2設定温度未満になると停止するように制御される。
The heater 11 disposed in the Rankine cycle circuit 10 is a heater 11 disposed also in the branch passage 22 of the engine coolant circuit 20, and working fluid circulating in the Rankine cycle circuit 10, and engine coolant The heater 11 performs heat exchange with cooling water circulating in the circuit 20. With this heater 11, the Rankine cycle system 2 recovers the engine waste heat via the cooling water circulating through the engine cooling water circuit 20, and converts it into electric power or rotational driving force for assisting the engine 23. In addition, the working fluid pump 14 disposed in the Rankine cycle circuit 10 is driven when the temperature of the cooling water immediately before passing through the heater 11 becomes equal to or higher than a predetermined second set temperature (for example, 85 ° C.). Is controlled so as to stop when the temperature of the cooling water immediately before passing through becomes lower than a predetermined second set temperature.
冷凍サイクルシステム4は、車両に搭載された空調システムに用いられ、エンジン23の駆動により、または、電動モータにより駆動して冷媒を圧縮する圧縮機31と、圧縮機31で圧縮された冷媒を外気と熱交換させることにより凝縮させる凝縮器としての放熱器32と、放熱器32で外気と熱交換して凝縮した後の冷媒を減圧する減圧装置としての膨張弁33と、車室内の空気を冷却するために膨張弁33で減圧された冷媒と車室内の空気とを熱交換する蒸発器34を順次配設した冷凍サイクル回路30とを備えている。尚、本実施例では凝縮器としての放熱器32を使用しているが、例えば、冷媒が二酸化炭素の場合には二酸化炭素冷媒が凝縮しないため、凝縮器としての放熱器32ではなく二酸化炭素冷媒を放熱させる放熱器であっても構わない。
The refrigeration cycle system 4 is used for an air conditioning system mounted in a vehicle, and the compressor 31 driven by the engine 23 or driven by an electric motor to compress the refrigerant, and the refrigerant compressed by the compressor 31 is the outside air The radiator 32 as a condenser that condenses by heat exchange, the expansion valve 33 as a decompression device that decompresses the refrigerant after condensing heat by exchanging heat with the outside air with the radiator 32, and cooling the air inside the vehicle compartment For this purpose, the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 is provided with an evaporator 34 for sequentially exchanging the heat of the refrigerant decompressed by the expansion valve 33 with the air in the vehicle compartment. In the present embodiment, the radiator 32 as a condenser is used. For example, when the refrigerant is carbon dioxide, a carbon dioxide refrigerant does not condense, so a carbon dioxide refrigerant is used instead of the condenser 32 as a condenser. It may be a radiator that dissipates heat.
冷凍サイクルシステム4の稼働は車両利用者が図示しない空調システムのスイッチをオンすることにより行われ、圧縮機31がエンジン23の駆動によって動作する圧縮機31の場合は、例えば、エンジン23と圧縮機31の間に配置された図示しない電磁クラッチが空調システムのスイッチのオンによってエンジン23の駆動を圧縮機31に伝え圧縮機31が駆動する。圧縮機31が電動モータによって動作する圧縮機31の場合は、空調システムのスイッチのオンによって電動モータが動作して圧縮機31が駆動する。
The operation of the refrigeration cycle system 4 is performed by turning on the switch of the air conditioning system (not shown) by the vehicle user, and in the case where the compressor 31 is operated by driving the engine 23, for example, the engine 23 and the compressor An electromagnetic clutch (not shown) disposed between 31 transmits the drive of the engine 23 to the compressor 31 and drives the compressor 31 when the air conditioning system is turned on. When the compressor 31 is operated by an electric motor, the electric motor operates to drive the compressor 31 by turning on the switch of the air conditioning system.
さらに、車両用廃熱回収システム1は、冷凍サイクル回路30を流れる冷媒とエンジン冷却水回路20を流れる冷却水との熱交換を行う熱交換器27を有している。この熱交換器27は冷凍サイクル回路30の圧縮機31と放熱器32との間であって、かつ、エンジン冷却水回路20の分岐通路22の加熱器下流側に配設されており、圧縮機31から吐出されて高温になった冷媒の熱が熱交換器27を介して冷却水に移動する。
Furthermore, the vehicle waste heat recovery system 1 has a heat exchanger 27 that exchanges heat between the refrigerant flowing in the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 and the cooling water flowing in the engine cooling water circuit 20. The heat exchanger 27 is disposed between the compressor 31 and the radiator 32 of the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 and downstream of the heater of the branch passage 22 of the engine cooling water circuit 20. The heat of the refrigerant discharged from the heat source 31 to a high temperature is transferred to the cooling water through the heat exchanger 27.
尚、本実施例の冷凍サイクルシステム4においては、冷凍サイクル回路30を流れる冷媒とエンジン冷却水回路20を流れる冷却水との熱交換を行う熱交換器27と、圧縮機31で圧縮された冷媒を外気と熱交換させることにより凝縮させる凝縮器としての放熱器32とが冷凍サイクル回路30に配設されているが、熱交換器27が配設されていれば放熱器32は必ずしも配設されていなくてもよい。
In the refrigeration cycle system 4 of the present embodiment, the heat exchanger 27 performing heat exchange between the refrigerant flowing in the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 and the cooling water flowing in the engine cooling water circuit 20, and the refrigerant compressed by the compressor 31 In the refrigeration cycle circuit 30, a radiator 32 as a condenser for condensing the heat by exchanging heat with the outside air is disposed. However, if the heat exchanger 27 is disposed, the radiator 32 is necessarily disposed. You do not have to.
次に本実施例の動作を説明する。エンジン始動によりポンプ24が駆動し冷却水がエンジン冷却水回路20を循環する。エンジン始動当初は冷却水の温度が低く、サーモスタット25の直前を通過する冷却水の温度が第1設定温度(90℃)未満のため、冷却水はサーモスタット25によりラジエータ側ではなく分岐通路側に流入して、加熱器11と熱交換器を27通過した後、エンジン23に再度流れ込んでエンジン冷却水回路20を循環する。エンジン始動時が冬の時期などのような外気が寒い状況においては冷却水の温度が夏の時期に比べて低いことから、低い温度の冷却水によってエンジン23が暖まらずエンジン23の暖気に時間がかかることになる。また、車室内空間を温めるためのヒータコア28にも低い温度の冷却水が流れるため車室内空間を温めることができない。
Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. When the engine is started, the pump 24 is driven to circulate coolant through the engine coolant circuit 20. Since the temperature of the cooling water is low at the start of the engine and the temperature of the cooling water passing immediately before the thermostat 25 is less than the first set temperature (90 ° C.), the cooling water flows into the branch passage side not the radiator side by the thermostat 25 Then, after passing through the heater 11 and the heat exchanger 27, it flows into the engine 23 again and circulates in the engine coolant circuit 20. Since the temperature of the cooling water is lower than that of the summer time when the outside air is cold, such as when the engine is started in winter, the temperature of the engine 23 is not warmed by the low temperature cooling water, and the warm-up time of the engine 23 is It will be. Further, since the low temperature cooling water also flows through the heater core 28 for heating the vehicle interior space, the vehicle interior space can not be warmed.
そこで、エンジン23の暖気に時間がかかるので運転者が暖気を促進したいと判断した場合に空調システムのスイッチをオンにする。空調システムのスイッチがオンにされると、圧縮機31が駆動し、圧縮機31から吐出された高温冷媒が熱交換器27に流れ込み、高温冷媒がまだ温度の低い冷却水と熱交換して冷却水の温度を上昇させ、熱交換器27により温度上昇した冷却水はエンジン23に再び流れ込みエンジン23の暖気が促進させる。また、熱交換器27により温度上昇した冷却水はヒータコア28にも流れ込み車室内空間の暖房を促進する。
Therefore, since it takes time to warm up the engine 23, the switch of the air conditioning system is turned on when the driver determines that warm-up is to be promoted. When the air conditioning system is switched on, the compressor 31 is driven, the high temperature refrigerant discharged from the compressor 31 flows into the heat exchanger 27, and the high temperature refrigerant still exchanges heat with the low temperature cooling water to cool it. The temperature of the water is raised, and the cooling water whose temperature has been raised by the heat exchanger 27 flows back into the engine 23 to promote warm-up of the engine 23. Further, the cooling water whose temperature has been raised by the heat exchanger 27 also flows into the heater core 28 to promote heating of the passenger compartment space.
エンジン23の暖気が促進されて冷却水の温度が上昇し、加熱器11を通過する直前の冷却水の温度が第2設定温度(85℃)に達すると、作動流体ポンプ14が駆動して作動流体がランキンサイクル回路10を循環してランキンサイクルシステム2が稼働し、膨張機21が駆動して動力を発生する。ここで、ランキンサイクルシステム2が稼働すると加熱器11において冷却水の熱が作動流体に移動することから加熱器通過後の冷却水の温度は下がる。しかし、本実施例ではエンジン冷却水回路20の分岐通路22の加熱器下流側に熱交換器27が配設されているので、加熱器通過後の温度の下がった冷却水は熱交換器27で高温の吐出冷媒から熱を回収するため、ランキンサイクルシステム2が稼働する場合であってもエンジンの暖気と冬季における車室内空間の暖房を促進させることができる。
The warm air of the engine 23 is promoted, the temperature of the cooling water rises, and when the temperature of the cooling water just before passing through the heater 11 reaches the second set temperature (85 ° C.), the working fluid pump 14 is driven to operate The fluid circulates through the Rankine cycle circuit 10 to operate the Rankine cycle system 2, and the expander 21 is driven to generate power. Here, when the Rankine cycle system 2 is operated, the heat of the cooling water is transferred to the working fluid in the heater 11, so the temperature of the cooling water after passing through the heater decreases. However, in the present embodiment, since the heat exchanger 27 is disposed on the heater downstream side of the branch passage 22 of the engine coolant circuit 20, the cooling water whose temperature has dropped after passing through the heater is the heat exchanger 27. In order to recover heat from the high temperature discharged refrigerant, even when the Rankine cycle system 2 is operated, it is possible to promote warm-up of the engine and heating of the vehicle interior space in winter.
尚、膨張機12が回収する動力(ランキン出力)が不十分である場合、例えば、膨張機12で回収した動力が電力に変換される場合はその電力が所定値に達しない場合、または、膨張機12の上流側と下流側の圧力差が所定値に達しない場合は、制御装置5はランキン出力が不十分であるとして作動流体ポンプ14の駆動を停止する。
If the power recovered by the expander 12 (rankin output) is insufficient, for example, if the power recovered by the expander 12 is converted to electric power, the power does not reach a predetermined value, or If the pressure difference between the upstream side and the downstream side of the machine 12 does not reach the predetermined value, the control device 5 stops driving the working fluid pump 14 because the Rankine output is insufficient.
本発明の第2実施例を図2~図5、図6に基づいて説明する。第1実施例と第2実施例の相違は、第2実施例では冷凍サイクル回路30の圧縮機31と放熱器32との間に熱交換器27をバイパスするバイパス路35を設けているが、第1実施例ではバイパス路35が無い点であり、その他の構成は第1実施例と同じである。尚、第2実施例において第1実施例と同一の符号は同一の構成要素であるので、その詳細な説明は省略する。
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described based on FIG. 2 to FIG. 5 and FIG. The difference between the first embodiment and the second embodiment is that in the second embodiment, a bypass passage 35 for bypassing the heat exchanger 27 is provided between the compressor 31 and the radiator 32 of the refrigeration cycle circuit 30, The first embodiment is that there is no bypass 35, and the other configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment. In the second embodiment, the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment denote the same components, so the detailed description thereof will be omitted.
図2において、冷凍サイクルシステム4は、第1実施例の冷凍サイクル回路4と共通する冷凍サイクル回路30の圧縮機31と熱交換器27との間と、熱交換器27と放熱器32との間とに接続して熱交換器27をバイパスするバイパス路35と、圧縮機31から吐出された冷媒の流れを熱交換器側またはパイパス路側に切換える切換装置としての切換弁36とを有しており、切換弁36はバイパス路35の圧縮機側接続部(圧縮機と熱交換器の間の通路との接続部)に配設されている。尚、本実施例では切換弁36はバイパス路35の圧縮機側接続部に配設されているが、切換弁36はバイパス路35の放熱器側接続部(熱交換器と放熱器の間の通路との接続部)に配設されていても構わない。また、本実施例では切換装置は切換弁36であるが、切換装置は、例えば、バイパス路上と、バイパスされる熱交換器27が配設された冷凍サイクル回路上とのそれぞれに開閉弁を設けて、圧縮機31から吐出された冷媒の流れを熱交換器側またはパイパス路側に切換える形式でも構わない。
In FIG. 2, the refrigeration cycle system 4 includes the compressor 31 and the heat exchanger 27 of the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 common to the refrigeration cycle circuit 4 of the first embodiment, the heat exchanger 27 and the radiator 32. And a bypass valve 35 as a switching device for switching the flow of refrigerant discharged from the compressor 31 to the heat exchanger side or the bypass path side. The switching valve 36 is disposed at the compressor side connection of the bypass passage 35 (the connection between the compressor and the heat exchanger). In the present embodiment, the switching valve 36 is disposed at the compressor side connection portion of the bypass passage 35, but the switching valve 36 is the radiator side connection portion of the bypass passage 35 (between the heat exchanger and the radiator). It may be disposed at the connection with the passage). In the present embodiment, the switching device is the switching valve 36. For example, the switching device is provided with an open / close valve on each of the bypass road and the refrigeration cycle circuit in which the heat exchanger 27 to be bypassed is disposed. Alternatively, the flow of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor 31 may be switched to the heat exchanger side or the bypass path side.
また、尚、本実施例の冷凍サイクルシステム4においては、冷凍サイクル回路30を流れる冷媒とエンジン冷却水回路20を流れる冷却水との熱交換を行う熱交換器27と、圧縮機31で圧縮された冷媒を外気と熱交換させることにより凝縮させる凝縮器としての放熱器32とが冷凍サイクル回路30に配設されているが、熱交換器27が配設されていれば放熱器32は必ずしも配設されていなくてもよい。
Furthermore, in the refrigeration cycle system 4 of the present embodiment, the heat exchanger 27 performing heat exchange between the refrigerant flowing in the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 and the cooling water flowing in the engine cooling water circuit 20 and the compressor 31 compress the refrigerant. A radiator 32 as a condenser for condensing the refrigerant by heat exchange with the outside air is disposed in the refrigeration cycle circuit 30, but if the heat exchanger 27 is disposed, the radiator 32 is not necessarily disposed. It does not have to be set up.
また、尚、本実施例の冷凍サイクルシステム4においては、バイパス路35は、圧縮機31と熱交換器27との間と、熱交換器27と放熱器32との間とに接続して熱交換器27をバイパスするが、バイパス路35は、圧縮機31と熱交換器27との間と、膨張弁33と放熱器32との間とに接続して、熱交換器27と放熱器32とをバイパスする熱交換器であっても構わない。すなわち、熱交換器27をバイパスするバイパス路であればよい。
Further, in the refrigeration cycle system 4 of the present embodiment, the bypass passage 35 is connected between the compressor 31 and the heat exchanger 27 and between the heat exchanger 27 and the radiator 32 so as to be a heat. Although the exchanger 27 is bypassed, the bypass passage 35 is connected between the compressor 31 and the heat exchanger 27 and between the expansion valve 33 and the radiator 32 to obtain the heat exchanger 27 and the radiator 32. It may be a heat exchanger that bypasses. That is, it may be a bypass that bypasses the heat exchanger 27.
また、本実施例の冷凍サイクルシステム4において、放熱器32が配設されていない場合においても同様に、熱交換器27をバイパスするバイパス路であれば、圧縮機31と熱交換器27との間と、膨張弁33と熱交換器27との間とを接続するバイパス路でも構わない。
Further, in the refrigeration cycle system 4 of the present embodiment, even in the case where the radiator 32 is not provided, if the bypass path bypasses the heat exchanger 27, the compressor 31 and the heat exchanger 27 It may be a bypass that connects the space between the expansion valve 33 and the heat exchanger 27.
切換弁36の動作は制御装置5により次のように行われる。冷凍サイクル回路30の圧縮機31と切換弁36との間に設けられた図示しない温度センサーにより吐出冷媒の温度T1と、エンジン冷却水回路20の加熱器11と熱交器27の間に設けられた図示しない温度センサーにより加熱器通過後の冷却水の温度T2が測定され、吐出冷媒の温度T1が冷却水の温度T2を超えた場合に、制御装置5は切換弁36を熱交換器側に切換えて冷媒を熱交換器27に流し、吐出冷媒の温度T1が冷却水の温度T2以下の場合に、制御装置5は切換弁36をバイパス路側に切換えて冷媒をバイパス路35に流す。
The operation of the switching valve 36 is performed by the controller 5 as follows. Provided between the heater 11 of the engine coolant circuit 20 and the heat exchanger 27 by the temperature T1 of the refrigerant discharged by a temperature sensor (not shown) provided between the compressor 31 of the refrigeration cycle circuit 30 and the switching valve 36 When the temperature T2 of the cooling water after passing through the heater is measured by the temperature sensor (not shown) and the temperature T1 of the discharged refrigerant exceeds the temperature T2 of the cooling water, the controller 5 switches the switching valve 36 to the heat exchanger side. The refrigerant is switched to flow into the heat exchanger 27, and when the temperature T1 of the discharged refrigerant is equal to or lower than the temperature T2 of the cooling water, the control device 5 switches the switching valve 36 to the bypass passage side to flow the refrigerant into the bypass passage 35.
次に本実施例の動作を説明する。エンジン始動によりポンプ24が駆動し冷却水がエンジン冷却水回路20を循環する。エンジン始動当初は冷却水の温度が低く、サーモスタット25の直前を通過する冷却水の第1設定温度(90℃)未満のため、冷却水はサーモスタット25によりラジエータ側ではなく分岐通路側に流入して、加熱器11と熱交換器27を通過した後、エンジン23に再度流れ込んでエンジン冷却水回路20を循環する。エンジン始動時が冬の時期などのような外気が寒い状況においては冷却水の温度が夏の時期に比べて低いことから、低い温度の冷却水によってエンジン23が暖まらずエンジン23の暖気に時間がかかることになる。また、車室内空間を温めるためのヒータコア28にも低い温度の冷却水が流れるため車室内空間を温めることができない。
Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. When the engine is started, the pump 24 is driven to circulate coolant through the engine coolant circuit 20. Because the temperature of the coolant is low at the start of the engine and is lower than the first set temperature (90 ° C) of the coolant passing immediately before the thermostat 25, the coolant flows into the branch passage instead of the radiator by the thermostat 25 After passing through the heater 11 and the heat exchanger 27, it flows into the engine 23 again and circulates in the engine coolant circuit 20. Since the temperature of the cooling water is lower than that of the summer time when the outside air is cold, such as when the engine is started in winter, the temperature of the engine 23 is not warmed by the low temperature cooling water, and the warm-up time of the engine 23 is It will be. Further, since the low temperature cooling water also flows through the heater core 28 for heating the vehicle interior space, the vehicle interior space can not be warmed.
そこで、エンジン23の暖気に時間がかかるので運転者が暖気を促進したいと判断した場合に空調システムのスイッチをオンにする。空調システムのスイッチがオンにされると、圧縮機31が駆動し、圧縮機31から吐出された高温冷媒が冷凍サイクル回路30を循環する。エンジン始動時であるため加熱器通過後の冷却水温度T2が、吐出冷媒の温度T1より低い状態にあることから、吐出冷媒の温度T1が加熱器通過後の冷却水温度T2を超えているので切換弁36は吐出冷媒を熱交換器側に流れるように切換り、高温の吐出冷媒がまだ温度の低い冷却水と熱交換して冷却水の温度を上昇させ、熱交換器27により温度上昇した冷却水はエンジン23に再び流れ込みエンジン23の暖気が促進させる。また、熱交換器27により温度上昇した冷却水はヒータコア28にも流れ込み車室内空間の暖房を促進する。
Therefore, since it takes time to warm up the engine 23, the switch of the air conditioning system is turned on when the driver determines that warm-up is to be promoted. When the switch of the air conditioning system is turned on, the compressor 31 is driven, and the high temperature refrigerant discharged from the compressor 31 circulates in the refrigeration cycle circuit 30. Since the engine start time is the cooling water temperature T2 after passing through the heater is lower than the temperature T1 of the discharged refrigerant, the temperature T1 of the discharged refrigerant exceeds the cooling water temperature T2 after passing through the heater The switching valve 36 switches the discharged refrigerant to flow to the heat exchanger side, and the high temperature discharged refrigerant exchanges heat with the cooling water whose temperature is still low to raise the temperature of the cooling water, and the temperature rises by the heat exchanger 27 The cooling water again flows into the engine 23 to promote warm-up of the engine 23. Further, the cooling water whose temperature has been raised by the heat exchanger 27 also flows into the heater core 28 to promote heating of the passenger compartment space.
冬場は室内空間の温度は夏場に比べて低いので、冷凍サイクルシステム4にとっては低負荷の運転となるため、熱交換器27により冷却水の温度が上昇してエンジン23の暖気、車室内空間の暖房が促進されてくると加熱器通過後の冷却水温度T2が上昇してきて吐出冷媒の温度T1が冷却水温度T2以下になり、切換弁36は吐出冷媒がバイパス通路側に流れるように切換る。吐出冷媒がバイパス通路側に流れて熱交換器27には流れなくなるので吐出冷媒の温度が熱交換器27によって上昇してしまうことが防止できるので冷凍サイクルシステム4の効率が下がってしまうことを抑制できる効果がある。
Since the temperature of the indoor space in winter is lower than that in summer, the refrigeration cycle system 4 operates at a low load, so the temperature of the cooling water is raised by the heat exchanger 27 and the warm air of the engine 23 and the interior space of the vehicle When heating is promoted, the coolant temperature T2 after passing through the heater rises, the temperature T1 of the discharged refrigerant becomes equal to or lower than the coolant temperature T2, and the switching valve 36 switches so that the discharged refrigerant flows to the bypass passage side. . Since the discharged refrigerant flows to the bypass passage side and does not flow to the heat exchanger 27, the temperature of the discharged refrigerant can be prevented from rising by the heat exchanger 27, so that the efficiency of the refrigeration cycle system 4 is suppressed from decreasing There is an effect that can be done.
本発明の第1実施例、第2実施例では、エンジン冷却水回路20における熱交換器27は加熱器11の下流側に配設されているため、エンジン冷却水回路20における熱交換器27と加熱器11が逆に配設されている場合に比べて、加熱器11を通過して温度の下がった冷却水と高温の吐出冷媒との温度差が確保できるので、熱交換器27における熱交換効率が良くなるという効果を有する。
In the first embodiment and the second embodiment of the present invention, since the heat exchanger 27 in the engine coolant circuit 20 is disposed downstream of the heater 11, the heat exchanger 27 in the engine coolant circuit 20 and Since the temperature difference between the cooling water having passed through the heater 11 and the high temperature discharge refrigerant can be secured compared to the case where the heater 11 is disposed in the reverse, the heat exchange in the heat exchanger 27 is performed. It has the effect of improving the efficiency.
