Bouteille de découplage hydrauliqueHydraulic decoupling bottle

Comme visible sur les figures 1 et 2, la bouteille hydraulique 4 comprend un réservoir d'eau muni d'un ensemble de quatre paires de piquages 7 à 11.As visible on figures 1 and 2 , the hydraulic bottle 4 comprises a water tank provided with a set of four pairs of taps 7 to 11.

Le premier piquage 7 de la première paire est conformé pour recevoir de l'eau de la pompe à chaleur 3. Le piquage 7 est autrement appelé piquage de départ pompe à chaleur.The first tapping 7 of the first pair is shaped to receive water from the heat pump 3.

Le deuxième piquage 12 de la troisième paire est conformé pour alimenter en eau le réseau 5 de radiateurs. Le piquage 12 est autrement appelé piquage de départ chauffage.The second tapping 12 of the third pair is shaped to supply water to the network 5 of radiators.

Le piquage 14 est autrement appelé piquage d'entrée préparateur.The second tapping 14 of the fourth pair is shaped to supply water to the heat exchanger of the preparer 6. The tapping 14 is otherwise called preparator inlet tapping.

Du fait de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4, chacun des circuits relatifs respectivement au générateur d'appoint 2, à la pompe à chaleur 3, au réseau de chauffage 5 et au préparateur 6, sont fluidiquement indépendants les uns des autres.Due to the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4, each of the circuits relating respectively to the booster generator 2, the heat pump 3, the heating network 5 and the preparer 6, are fluidly independent of each other.

En particulier, chaque paire des piquages 7 à 14 est indépendante fluidiquement des autres paires.In particular, each pair of taps 7 to 14 is fluidly independent of the other pairs.

La bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4 présente un volume interne constituant une zone tampon, ce qui permet de découpler les débits d'eau dans chaque circuit.The hydraulic decoupling bottle 4 has an internal volume constituting a buffer zone, which makes it possible to decouple the flow rates of water in each circuit.

Comme visible sur la figure 2, les piquages 7, 8 de départ et retour pompe à chaleur, et les piquages 11 et 13 de retour chauffage et préparateur sont disposés dans une première zone 15 de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4.As visible on the figure 2 , the outlets 7, 8 for starting and return heat pump, and the connections 11 and 13 return heating and preparer are arranged in a first zone 15 of the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4.

Les piquages 9, 10 de départ et retour générateur d'appoint, et les piquages 12 et 14 de départ chauffage et préparateur sont disposés dans une deuxième zone 16 de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4.The outlets 9, 10 for the start and return of the auxiliary generator, and the taps 12 and 14 for the heating and preparer flow are arranged in a second zone 16 of the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4.

Comme visible sur la figure 2, la première zone 15 est en partie basse de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4 tandis que la deuxième zone 16 est en partie haute de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4.As visible on the figure 2 the first zone 15 is at the bottom of the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4 while the second zone 16 is at the top of the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4.

La première zone 15 correspond à des températures d'eau plus faibles que la deuxième zone 16.The first zone 15 corresponds to lower water temperatures than the second zone 16.

Avantageusement, des capteurs de température sont positionnés dans chaque piquage 7 à 14, ou dans certains piquages parmi les piquages 7 à 14, ou au minimum, un capteur de température est positionné dans la zone basse 15 et un autre dans la zone haute 16.Advantageously, temperature sensors are positioned in each tapping 7 to 14, or in some of the tappings 7 to 14, or at least one temperature sensor is positioned in the low zone 15 and another in the high zone 16.

De préférence, le diamètre de la bouteille 4 mesure entre deux et cinq fois plus que le diamètre de plus grande valeur parmi les diamètres des piquages 7 à 14.Preferably, the diameter of the bottle 4 is between two and five times greater than the diameter of greater value among the diameters of the connections 7 to 14.

De préférence, une distance entre deux piquages consécutifs mesure entre deux fois et six fois plus que le diamètre de plus grande valeur parmi les diamètres des piquages 7 à 14.Preferably, a distance between two consecutive taps is between two and six times more than the largest diameter diameter among the diameters of the taps 7 to 14.

Ces dimensionnements assurent que la bouteille hydraulique 4 s'affranchisse de toute interférence de pompes relatives au circuit du générateur d'appoint 2, de la pompe à chaleur 3, du réseau de chauffage d'air 5 et du préparateur 6.These dimensions ensure that the hydraulic cylinder 4 is free from interference from pumps relating to the circuit of the booster generator 2, the heat pump 3, the air heating network 5 and the preparer 6.

Procédé de régulationRegulation process

Quand le système de chauffage est sollicité du fait d'un besoin thermique à une température souhaitée, dite température de consigne, Tc, un procédé de régulation thermique 30 du système de chauffage 1 se déclenche.When the heating system is requested because of a thermal need at a desired temperature, said set temperature, Tc, a thermal control method 30 of the heating system 1 is triggered.

La température de consigne Tc correspond à une température que doit atteindre l'eau dans la zone haute 16 de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4.The set temperature Tc corresponds to a temperature to be reached by the water in the upper zone 16 of the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4.

Cette température est appelée température de sortie de bouteille.This temperature is called the bottle outlet temperature.

Comme visible sur la figure 3, le procédé de régulation 30 comprend une étape 31 d'activation de la pompe à chaleur 3 systématiquement consécutive au déclenchement du procédé de régulation thermique 30. Cette étape est référencée ACT sur la figure 3.As visible on the figure 3 , the control method 30 comprises a step 31 of activation of the heat pump 3 systematically following the triggering of the thermal regulation process 30. This step is referenced ACT on the figure 3 .

Cette étape assure que la pompe à chaleur 3 constitue la source thermique prioritaire du système de chauffage 1.This step ensures that the heat pump 3 constitutes the priority thermal source of the heating system 1.

Le procédé 30 comprend également une étape 32 de détermination d'un coefficient de performance (COP) de la pompe à chaleur 3, dit coefficient de performance réel, et référencée DET, que le compresseur fonctionne ou soit en arrêt.The method 30 also comprises a step 32 of determining a coefficient of performance (COP) of the heat pump 3, said real coefficient of performance, and referenced DET, that the compressor operates or is off.

Ainsi, le coefficient de performance réel est calculé que la pompe à chaleur soit en marche ou au contraire à l'arrêt.Thus, the actual coefficient of performance is calculated whether the heat pump is running or, conversely, stopped.

L'étape 32 de détermination du coefficient de performance réel est effectuée à des temps donnés pendant une durée d'utilisation du système de chauffage 1.The step 32 of determining the real coefficient of performance is performed at given times during a period of use of the heating system 1.

En d'autres termes, l'étape 32 de détermination du coefficient de performance réel comprend une succession d'étapes au cours desquelles le coefficient de performance est déterminé à intervalles réguliers ou irréguliers.In other words, the step 32 of determining the real coefficient of performance comprises a succession of steps during which the coefficient of performance is determined at regular or irregular intervals.

Le procédé de régulation thermique 30 assure donc un calcul du coefficient de performance en temps réel d'utilisation du système de chauffage 1.The thermal control method 30 thus provides a calculation of the real-time performance coefficient of use of the heating system 1.

Par exemple, le coefficient de performance réel est calculé à un intervalle de temps de l'ordre de 2 minutes.For example, the actual coefficient of performance is calculated at a time interval of the order of 2 minutes.

Le coefficient de performance réel est défini comme un rapport entre une puissance calorifique générée par la pompe à chaleur 3 et une puissance électrique consommée par la pompe à chaleur 3.The real coefficient of performance is defined as a ratio between a heat output generated by the heat pump 3 and an electric power consumed by the heat pump 3.

Comme visible sur la figure 3, le procédé de régulation 30 comprend également une étape 33 de modulation d'un taux de charge de la pompe à chaleur 3 en fonction de la valeur mesurée du coefficient de performance réel et d'une comparaison de la température d'eau sortant de la bouteille hydraulique à la température de consigne, référencée MOD.As visible on the figure 3 , the control method 30 also comprises a step 33 of modulating a charge rate of the pump to heat 3 as a function of the measured value of the real coefficient of performance and a comparison of the temperature of water leaving the hydraulic cylinder at the set temperature, referenced MOD.

Le taux de charge est défini comme un rapport entre une puissance calorifique à charge partielle de la pompe à chaleur et une puissance calorifique à pleine charge de la pompe à chaleur.The charge rate is defined as a ratio between a partial load heat capacity of the heat pump and a heat load capacity at full load of the heat pump.

Le taux de charge est compris entre 0% et 100%, la valeur 0% correspondant à l'arrêt de la pompe à chaleur 3 et la valeur 100% à la pleine charge de la pompe à chaleur 3.The charging rate is between 0% and 100%, the value 0% corresponding to the shutdown of the heat pump 3 and the value 100% at the full load of the heat pump 3.

Dans le cas où la comparaison entre les températures donne pour résultat que la température d'eau sortant de la bouteille hydraulique est égale à la température de consigne, le taux de charge est maintenant constant, le besoin thermique étant satisfait.In the case where the comparison between the temperatures results in the water temperature leaving the hydraulic cylinder being equal to the set temperature, the charge rate is now constant, the thermal need being satisfied.

Au cours de l'étape de détermination du coefficient de performance réel, le coefficient de performance réel est calculé en fonction d'une température extérieure Text, d'une température caractéristique de la pompe à chaleur 3 et du taux de charge de la pompe à chaleur 3.During the step of determining the real coefficient of performance, the real coefficient of performance is calculated according to an external temperature T ext , a temperature characteristic of the heat pump 3 and the rate of charge of the pump. heat 3.

La température extérieure Text est mesurée par un capteur de température, disposé à l'extérieur du système de chauffage et du local.The outside temperature T ext is measured by a temperature sensor disposed outside the heating system and the room.

La température caractéristique de la pompe à chaleur est par exemple une température de départ Tdep correspondant à la température d'eau circulant dans le piquage 7 de départ pompe à chaleur, soit une température de l'eau dans le piquage 8 de retour pompe à chaleur, dite température de retour Tret pompe à chaleur.The characteristic temperature of the heat pump is, for example, a flow temperature T dep corresponding to the temperature of the water circulating in the starting point 7 of the heat pump, ie a temperature of the water in the quill 8 of the return pump. heat, so-called return temperature T ret heat pump.

Les températures de départ Tdep et retour Tret sont mesurées par des capteurs de température.The starting temperatures T dep and return T ret are measured by temperature sensors.

De préférence, le coefficient de performance réel dépend de la température extérieure Text, de la température de départ ou de retour et du taux de charge de la pompe à chaleur, selon un polynôme, ou selon une matrice.Preferably, the actual coefficient of performance depends on the external temperature T ext , the flow or return temperature and the heat pump charge rate, according to a polynomial, or a matrix.

Le procédé 30 comprend également une étape 34 de comparaison du coefficient de performance réel à une valeur seuil, appelée coefficient de performance seuil. Cette étape est référencée COMP.The method also includes a step 34 of comparing the actual performance coefficient to a threshold value, called the threshold performance coefficient. This step is referenced COMP.

Le coefficient de performance seuil correspond à un régime limite de fonctionnement optimal de la pompe à chaleur 3.The threshold performance coefficient corresponds to an optimum operating limit of the heat pump 3.

L'étape de comparaison 34 est effectuée après chaque calcul de COP réel.The comparison step 34 is performed after each actual COP calculation.

Le coefficient de performance seuil peut dépendre du rendement du générateur d'appoint 2, d'une valeur limite telle qu'une facture énergétique liée au fonctionnement de la pompe à chaleur 3 soit égale à une facture énergétique liée au fonctionnement du générateur d'appoint 2, des émissions respectives de dioxyde de carbone de la pompe à chaleur 3 et du générateur 2, ou encore des consommations d'énergies primaires respectives de la pompe à chaleur 3 et du générateur 2.The threshold performance coefficient may depend on the performance of the booster generator 2, a limit value such as an energy bill related to the operation of the heat pump 3 is equal to an energy bill related to the operation of the booster generator 2, respective emissions of carbon dioxide from the heat pump 3 and the generator 2, or the respective primary energy consumption of the heat pump 3 and the generator 2.

Comme visible sur la figure 3, le procédé 30 comprend une étape 35 de désactivation de la pompe à chaleur 3 si le coefficient de performance réel est inférieur au coefficient de performance seuil, référencée DESACT.As visible on the figure 3 the method 30 comprises a step 35 of deactivating the heat pump 3 if the actual coefficient of performance is lower than the threshold performance coefficient, referenced DESACT.

De préférence, dans ce cas, le générateur d'appoint 2 est alors activé.Preferably, in this case, the backup generator 2 is then activated.

Comme visible sur la figure 3, le procédé 30 comprend une étape 36 de mesure (MES) de la température de sortie de l'eau hors de la bouteille hydraulique 4, et une étape d'activation du générateur d'appoint si, à un temps donné de fonctionnement de la pompe à chaleur, la température de sortie est inférieure à la température de consigne.As visible on the figure 3 the method 30 comprises a measurement step 36 (MES) of the outlet temperature of the water outside the hydraulic bottle 4, and a step of activating the backup generator if, at a given operating time of the heat pump, the outlet temperature is lower than the set temperature.

Le temps de fonctionnement de la pompe à chaleur pour activer le générateur d'appoint 2 est par exemple de l'ordre de 5 minutes.The operating time of the heat pump to activate the booster generator 2 is for example of the order of 5 minutes.

Dans ce cas, les deux sources thermiques, c'est-à-dire la pompe à chaleur 3 et le générateur d'appoint 2 assurent simultanément le chauffage de l'eau pour les piquages 12 et 14 de départ chauffage et départ préparateur.In this case, the two heat sources, that is to say the heat pump 3 and the booster generator 2 simultaneously provide the heating of the water for the connections 12 and 14 of the heating and preparatory start.

Comme visible sur la figure 3, le procédé 30 comprend une étape 37 de détermination (DET) du coefficient de performance réel à intervalle donné, régulier ou irrégulier, pendant la désactivation de la pompe à chaleur 3 suivie de préférence d'une étape d'activation de la pompe à chaleur 3 quand le coefficient de performance réel redevient égal au coefficient de performance seuil.As visible on the figure 3 the method comprises a step 37 of determining (DET) the real coefficient of performance at a given interval, regular or irregular, during the deactivation of the heat pump 3 followed preferably by a step of activation of the heat pump 3 when the real performance coefficient becomes equal to the threshold coefficient of performance.

Comme visible sur la figure 3, le procédé 30 comprend avantageusement une étape 38 de blocage (BLO) d'activation du générateur d'appoint 2 pendant une durée donnée, dite durée de blocage.As visible on the figure 3 , the method advantageously comprises a blocking stage 38 (BLO) for activating the booster generator 2 for a given duration, called the blocking duration.

De préférence, l'étape de blocage 38 est active en été ou en période hors chauffage du local par le réseau de radiateurs.Preferably, the blocking step 38 is active in the summer or in the off-heating period of the room by the radiator network.

La durée de blocage est par exemple de l'ordre de 30 minutes.The blocking time is for example of the order of 30 minutes.

Dans ce cas, le chauffage de l'eau est uniquement assuré par la pompe à chaleur 3, même si la température en sortie de la bouteille reste inférieure à la température de consigne.In this case, the heating of the water is only provided by the heat pump 3, even if the temperature at the outlet of the bottle remains below the set temperature.

On peut prévoir également dans ce cas une étape de détermination du coefficient de performance réel de la pompe à chaleur 3 à des temps donnés pendant la durée de blocage suivi d'une étape de comparaison du coefficient de performance réel au coefficient de performance seuil, et une étape d'activation du générateur d'appoint si le coefficient de performance réel est inférieur au coefficient de performance seuil.In this case, it is also possible to envisage a step of determining the actual coefficient of performance of the heat pump 3 at given times during the blocking period followed by a step of comparing the actual coefficient of performance with the threshold performance coefficient, and a step of activating the backup generator if the real performance coefficient is lower than the threshold performance coefficient.

Avantageusement, si le coefficient de performance est supérieur au coefficient de performance seuil, l'étape de modulation du taux de charge comprend une étape non illustrée de modification du taux de charge de la pompe à chaleur 3 de sorte que le coefficient de performance augmente jusqu'à une valeur maximale.Advantageously, if the coefficient of performance is greater than the threshold coefficient of performance, the step of modulating the charge rate comprises an unillustrated step of modifying the charge rate of the heat pump 3 so that the coefficient of performance increases until 'at a maximum value.

Cette étape permet de réduire la dépense énergétique due à la pompe à chaleur 3.This step reduces the energy expenditure due to the heat pump 3.

Alternativement, si le coefficient de performance est supérieur au coefficient de performance seuil, l'étape de modulation du taux de charge comprend une étape non illustrée de modification du taux de charge de la pompe à chaleur 3 jusqu'à atteindre un taux de charge maximale, par exemple de l'ordre de 100%.Alternatively, if the coefficient of performance is greater than threshold performance coefficient, the step of modulation of the charge rate comprises an unillustrated step of changing the charge rate of the heat pump 3 to reach a maximum charge rate, for example of the order of 100% .

Cette étape permet de réduire le temps de retour sur investissement du système de chauffage.This step reduces the return on investment time of the heating system.

Le procédé de régulation est mis en oeuvre par une unité de calcul.The control method is implemented by a computing unit.

L'unité de calcul peut être un circuit comme par exemple :

  • un processeur apte à interpréter des instructions sous la forme de programme informatique, ou

Comme visible sur les figures 4 et 5, le taux de charge Tx diminue au cours du temps, suite au calcul du coefficient de performance réel en temps réel, ce qui contribue notamment à une réduction d'écart entre Tdep et Tret et une augmentation du coefficient de performance.As visible on Figures 4 and 5 , the charge rate Tx decreases over time, following the calculation of the real coefficient of performance in real time, which notably contributes to a reduction in the difference between T dep and T ret and an increase in the coefficient of performance.

La figure 6 illustre une évolution en hiver et au cours du temps respectivement du taux de charge Tx de la pompe à chaleur 3, selon une courbe 61, d'un taux de charge Txx (en pourcentage) du générateur d'appoint 2 selon une courbe 62, de la température de départ Tdep , selon une courbe 63, et de la température de retour Tret, selon une courbe 64.The figure 6 illustrates a change in winter and over time, respectively, in the load factor Tx of the heat pump 3, according to a curve 61, of a charge rate Txx (in percentage) of the generator 2 along a curve 62, the starting temperature T dep , along a curve 63, and the return temperature T ret , along a curve 64.

La figure 7 illustre une évolution en été et au cours du temps respectivement du taux de charge Tx de la pompe à chaleur 3, selon une courbe 71, d'un taux de charge Txx du générateur d'appoint 2 selon une courbe 72, de la température de départ Tdep , selon une courbe 73, et de la température de retour Tret, selon une courbe 74.The figure 7 illustrates an evolution in summer and over time, respectively, of the charge rate Tx of the heat pump 3, according to a curve 71, of a charge rate Txx of the booster generator 2 according to a curve 72, the temperature of the starting T dep , according to a curve 73, and the return temperature T ret , according to a curve 74.

En hiver, l'étape 38 de blocage est désactivée.In winter, blocking step 38 is disabled.

En été au contraire, l'étape 38 de blocage est mise en place.In summer, on the other hand, blocking step 38 is put in place.

Comme déjà expliqué, cette temporisation du déclenchement du générateur 2 impose que la pompe à chaleur 3 assure seule le chauffage de l'eau vers le réseau 5 et l'échangeur de chaleur 6.As already explained, this timing of the triggering of the generator 2 requires that the heat pump 3 alone ensures the heating of the water to the network 5 and the heat exchanger 6.

Comme visible sur la figure 6, le générateur 2 et la pompe à chaleur 3 sont déclenchés en même temps en hiver, autour du temps t=12h2min.As visible on the figure 6 , the generator 2 and the heat pump 3 are triggered at the same time in winter, around the time t = 12h2min.

Comme visible sur la figure 7, seule la pompe à chaleur 3 se déclenche à t=0, tandis que le générateur d'appoint 2 se déclenche à un temps t de l'ordre de 29min.As visible on the figure 7 , only the heat pump 3 is triggered at t = 0, while the backup generator 2 is triggered at a time t of the order of 29min.

On note que le taux de modulation Tx de la pompe à chaleur 3 devient nul vers 12h22 sur la figure 6 et vers 0h42min sur la figure 7, indiquant là que le coefficient de performance réel devient inférieur au coefficient de performance seuil.It is noted that the modulation rate Tx of the heat pump 3 becomes zero around 12:22 pm on the figure 6 and around 0:42 min on the figure 7 , indicating that the actual coefficient of performance falls below the threshold coefficient of performance.

AvantagesAdvantages

Le procédé de régulation 30 assurant le calcul du coefficient de performance réel en temps réel lors du fonctionnement du système de chauffage 1, on obtient un fonctionnement optimal du système 1, puisque le coefficient de performance réel est maintenu supérieur ou égal au coefficient de performance réel seuil, quitte à faire un appoint avec le générateur d'appoint 2 sans arrêter pour autant la pompe à chaleur 3.Since the control method 30 calculates the actual coefficient of performance in real time during the operation of the heating system 1, an optimal operation of the system 1 is obtained, since the real coefficient of performance is kept greater than or equal to the real coefficient of performance. threshold, even if you have to top up with the backup generator 2 without stopping the heat pump 3.

Le système de chauffage 1 assure, du fait en particulier de la bouteille de découplage hydraulique 4, un fonctionnement autonome des circuits relatifs au générateur d'appoint 2, à la pompe à chaleur 3, au réseau de chauffage 5 et au préparateur 6, ce qui permet de choisir des conditions optimales de fonctionnement pour chacun des circuits.The heating system 1 ensures, especially because of the hydraulic decoupling bottle 4, autonomous operation of the circuits relating to the booster generator 2, to the heat pump 3, to the heating network 5 and to the preparer 6, which makes it possible to choose optimal operating conditions for each of the circuits.

L'invention s'applique tout particulièrement au cas où le système de chauffage 1 comprend une pluralité de générateurs d'appoint et une pluralité de pompes à chaleur ; dans ce cas, le local approvisionné par le système 1 est une installation collective (par opposition à domestique).The invention is particularly applicable to the case where the heating system 1 comprises a plurality of auxiliary generators and a plurality of heat pumps; in this case, the premises supplied by the system 1 is a collective installation (as opposed to domestic).
