Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like or similar reference numerals refer to the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar function throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are illustrative and intended to be illustrative of the invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
An air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a block diagram of an air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the air conditioning system 100 includes an outdoor unit 10, an indoor unit 20, and a controller (not shown).
The outdoor unit 10 includes a compressor 11, a four-way valve 12, and an outdoor heat exchanger 13, and may also include other pipes or components such as a gas-liquid separator, wherein a first port a of the four-way valve 12 is connected to an air outlet of the compressor 11, a second port D of the four-way valve 12 is connected to one end of the outdoor heat exchanger 13, and a third port C of the four-way valve 12 is connected to a return air inlet of the compressor 11.
The indoor unit 20 includes an indoor main heat exchanger 21, an indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22, a control switch 23, and a throttling device 24, wherein one end of the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is connected to the other end of the outdoor heat exchanger 13, the other end of the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is connected to one end of the throttling device 24, the other end of the throttling device 24 is connected to one end of the indoor main heat exchanger 21, the other end of the indoor main heat exchanger 21 is connected to the fourth valve port B of the four-way valve 12, one end of the control switch 23 is connected to one end of the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22, and the other end of the control switch 23 is connected to the other end of the indoor auxiliary heat.
The controller 30 controls the control switch 23 according to an operation mode, wherein the control switch 23 is controlled to be turned off in a dehumidification mode.
Specifically, in the dehumidification mode, the compressor 11 outputs a high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant, the refrigerant is output to the outdoor heat exchanger 13 through the four-way valve 12 to be condensed and released heat, the low-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant enters the indoor unit 20, the control switch 23 is turned off, the refrigerant is condensed and released heat through the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22, throttled by the throttling device 24 to become a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, evaporated and refrigerated through the indoor main heat exchanger 21, and finally returned to the compressor 11 through the four-way valve, and the operation is repeated. It can be seen that, based on the structure of the indoor unit 20 of the embodiment of the present invention, when the dehumidification mode is operated, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 condenses to release heat, and the indoor main heat exchanger 21 evaporates to cool, so as to balance the indoor temperature, meet the requirement of no cooling during dehumidification, and avoid the indoor comfort from being affected by the lower indoor temperature during dehumidification operation.
In the related art, in the manner of dividing the indoor heat exchanger into a part of evaporation and a condensation, and reducing the effect during normal cooling or heating, the air conditioning system 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is based on the above-mentioned structure of the indoor unit 20, wherein the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 has a capillary tube assembly, and the controller 30 controls the control switch 23 to be turned on to bypass to perform cooling or heating during the cooling mode or the heating mode, so as to ensure the cooling or heating effect.
Specifically, in the normal refrigeration mode, the controller 30 controls the control switch 23 to be turned on, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 has a capillary tube assembly, and the refrigerant has a large flow resistance, so that when the control switch 23 is turned on, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 does not substantially pass through the refrigerant, and the refrigerant enters the indoor unit 20, flows through the pipeline of the control switch 23, is throttled and depressurized by the throttling device 24, such as an electronic expansion valve, and is evaporated, absorbed and cooled by the indoor main heat exchanger 21, thereby achieving the refrigeration effect. It can be seen that in the cooling mode, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 does not function, and the cooling effect is not affected similarly to the cooling process of the conventional air conditioner.
Similarly, in the normal heating mode, the controller 30 controls the control switch 23 to be turned on, since the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 has the capillary tube assembly, the refrigerant flow resistance is large, and when the control switch 23 is turned on, the refrigerant does not substantially pass through the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant output by the compressor 11 enters the indoor unit 20, flows through the indoor main heat exchanger 21 to be condensed and release heat, is throttled and depressurized by the throttling device 24 to be changed into a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, is distributed with the refrigerant quantity of each indoor unit, is output to the outdoor heat exchanger 13 through the pipeline of the control switch 23 to be evaporated and absorb heat, and finally flows back to the compressor 11 through the four-way valve 12, and the heating is realized in such a circulating way. It can be seen that in the cooling mode, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 does not function, and the heating effect is not affected similarly to the heating process of the existing air conditioner.
In addition, in some related arts, if the outdoor heat exchanger 13 needs to be defrosted for heating operation, the indoor heat exchanger also serves as an evaporator to absorb indoor heat, and thus, the indoor temperature is lowered during defrosting, which affects comfort. In the embodiment of the present invention, based on the indoor unit 20 provided with the indoor main heat exchanger 21 and the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22, it is possible to ensure that the indoor temperature of the indoor unit 20 in the operating state is constant during defrosting operation, and comfort is ensured.
In some embodiments of the present invention, for the multi-split air-conditioning system, in the heating and defrosting mode, the controller 30 obtains the ratio of the sum of the capacities of the indoor units in the operating state to the total indoor unit capacity, and when the ratio of the sum of the capacities of the operating indoor units to the total indoor unit capacity is smaller than a preset ratio, for example, 50%, the control switch 23 of the indoor unit 20 in the operating state is turned off, at this time, both the condensation heat release temperature rise and the evaporation heat absorption temperature fall of the indoor main heat exchanger 21 of the indoor unit 20 in the operating state are performed, so as to stabilize the indoor temperature as much as possible, defrost the outdoor heat exchanger 11 can be realized, and the control switch of the indoor unit in the non-operating state is turned on, that is, normal heating and defrost can be performed in a room without air-conditioning effect, at this time, the refrigerant bypasses the pipeline through the control switch 23, even if the indoor main heat exchanger 21 is used as an evaporator to absorb indoor heat, the comfort problem is not influenced, and the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 does not act; or when the ratio of the sum of the capacities of the running indoor units to the total indoor unit capacity is greater than or equal to the preset ratio, the control switches 23 of all the indoor units are controlled to be opened, the indoor units are bypassed through the control switches 23, and then evaporated, absorbed and cooled through the indoor main heat exchanger 21, so that the outdoor defrosting function is realized.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, the indoor main heat exchanger 21 includes a first heat exchanging portion 211 and a second heat exchanging portion 212, and the first heat exchanging portion 211, the second heat exchanging portion 212 and the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 are arranged in a triangle, wherein the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is located on the air outlet side and forms a bottom edge of the triangle as a function of re-condensing heat release to raise the temperature, and the first heat exchanging portion 211 and the second heat exchanging portion 212 are arranged at a predetermined angle toward the air outlet direction to form a vertex angle of the triangle, so as to ensure that the air flows along the air flow direction in the unit first pass through the indoor main heat exchanger 21 and then pass through the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 releasing heat, which is more energy-saving and has better effect. Fig. 2 also includes an indoor fan 25 and a water pan 26. It should be noted that this embodiment is only one implementation form of the indoor heat exchanger, and of course, other modifications or alternative forms based on this embodiment may also be adopted.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the fin pitch of the fins of the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is greater than the fin pitch of the fins of the indoor main heat exchanger 21, for example, the fin pitch of the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is 2.0 mm, which can reduce wind resistance.
In summary, in the air conditioning system 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, by providing the indoor main heat exchanger 21 and the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22, in the dehumidification mode, the controller 30 controls the control switch 23 to be turned off, so that the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is connected to the refrigerant cycle, and the indoor main heat exchanger 21 performs evaporation heat absorption and the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 performs condensation heat release indoors, so that the indoor temperature can be stabilized during dehumidification operation, and the comfort is prevented from being affected by temperature reduction. And, when normal refrigeration or heating, the control switch 23 is turned on, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 does not participate in indoor heat exchange, ensuring the effect of refrigeration or heating; when heating and defrosting, the indoor temperature of the indoor unit in the running state can be ensured to be stable, and the requirement of comfort is met. In addition, the indoor auxiliary heat exchanger 22 is arranged at the air outlet direction side of the indoor main heat exchanger 21, so that energy can be saved, and the effect is better.
