Description

FIELD

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a field of heat exchange, and more particularly, to an air conditioning system and a heat exchange system for heat dissipation of an electronic control assembly of an air conditioning system.

BACKGROUND

An electronic control assembly of an air conditioning system is used to control the normal operation of the air conditioning system, and the electronic control assembly may generate heat during operation. In order to ensure the normal operation of the electronic control assembly, the heat generated needs to be taken away. As far as the applicant knows, a heat dissipation system of a controller includes a branch divided from the air conditioning system, so that a part of the refrigerant flows into a heat exchange member, so as to perform heat dissipation of the electronic control assembly through the heat exchange member. However, the refrigerant entering the heat exchange member is a refrigerant with a high temperature and a high pressure, and the temperature difference between the refrigerant and components of the electronic control assembly is small, so that the heat dissipation effect is poor. Moreover, if the refrigerant entering the heat exchange member is a refrigerant with a low temperature and a low pressure after passing through a throttle valve of a unit, the condensate tends to be generated due to the low temperature, which has potential safety hazards to the electronic control assembly.

Thus, these terms shall not be construed as limitation on the present disclosure.

As shown in FIGS. 1-22, an air conditioning system according to embodiments of the present disclosure includes a first system 100 and a second system 200.

The first system 100 includes a compressor 11, a first heat exchanger 12, a first throttle 13, a second heat exchanger 14 and an electronic control assembly 16. The compressor 11 includes a first opening and a second opening, the first heat exchanger 12 includes a first opening and a second opening, the first throttle 13 includes a first opening and a second opening, and the second heat exchanger 14 includes a first opening and a second opening. The first opening of the first heat exchanger 12 is in communication with the first opening of the compressor 11, the second opening of the first heat exchanger 12 is in communication with the first opening of the first throttle 13, the second opening of the first throttle 13 is in communication with the second opening of the second heat exchanger 14, and the first opening of the second heat exchanger 14 is in communication with the second opening of the compressor 11.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3-9, a right-end opening (shown in FIGS. 1, 5, 6 and 8) or an upper-end opening (shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 7 and 9) of the compressor 11 is in communication with a left-end opening of the first heat exchanger 12, a right-end opening of the first heat exchanger 12 is in communication with an upper-end opening of the first throttle 13, a lower-end opening of the first throttle 13 is in communication with a right-end opening of the second heat exchanger 14, and a left-end opening of the second heat exchanger 14 is in communication with a left-end opening (shown in FIGS. 1, 5, 6 and 8) or a lower-end opening (shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 7 and 9) of the compressor 11, so as to define a circulation loop in which a first refrigerant may circulate and flow.

The second system 200, i.e., a heat exchange system for heat dissipation of an electronic control assembly of an air conditioning system, includes a first heat exchange assembly 21 and a heat exchange member 22. The first heat exchange assembly 21 includes a first channel 211 and a second channel 212 isolated from each other, and the first channel 211 includes a first communication port and a second communication port. The first communication port of the first channel 211 is in communication with the second opening of the first throttle 13 or the second opening of the first heat exchanger 12. The second communication port of the first channel 211 is in communication with the second opening of the compressor 11 and the first opening of the second heat exchanger 14, or the second communication port of the first channel is in communication with the second opening of the second heat exchanger 14.

An upper-end communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with the lower-end opening of the first throttle 13, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3-7; or, the upper-end communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with the right-end opening of the first heat exchanger 12, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9.

A lower-end communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with the compressor 11, as shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 8 and 9; or, the lower-end communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with the right-end opening of the second heat exchanger 14, i.e., the lower-end communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with the compressor 11 through the second heat exchanger 14, as shown in FIGS. 5-7. Thus, the first refrigerant flowing out of the first heat exchanger 12 is divided and flows into two paths. In one path, the first refrigerant flows into the second heat exchanger 14 and then enters the compressor 11. In the other path, the first refrigerant flows into the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21, and directly enters the compressor 11 or flows into the second heat exchanger 14 and then enters the compressor 11, through the first channel 211.

The second channel 212 includes a first communication port and a second communication port, and the heat exchange member 22 includes a first communication port and a second communication port. The first communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is in communication with the first communication port of the second channel 212, and the second communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is in communication with the second communication port of the second channel 212. The heat exchange member 22 includes at least one heat dissipation surface 220, and the heat dissipation surface 220 is in contact with the electronic control assembly 16, so as to be in conduction with the electronic control assembly 16 to dissipate heat. Thus, the second system 200 is the heat exchange system for heat dissipation of the electronic control assembly 16 of the air conditioning system according to the embodiments of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an upper-end communication port of the second channel 212 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with a left-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and a lower-end communication port of the second channel 212 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is in communication with a left-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22, so as to define another circulation loop in which a second refrigerant may circulate and flow.

The first channel 211 and the second channel 212 are isolated from each other. Moreover, when the air conditioning system operates, the first channel 211 is filled with the first refrigerant, the second channel 212 is filled with the second refrigerant, and the first refrigerant in the first channel 211 and the refrigerant in the second channel 212 remain separated from each other, i.e., they are not mixed with each other. Therefore, when the air conditioning system operates, the first refrigerant in the first system 100 and the second refrigerant in the second system 200 remain separated from each other. Furthermore, when the first refrigerant flows to the first channel 211, the first refrigerant exchanges heat with the second refrigerant in the second channel 212.

As shown in FIG. 22, the at least one heat dissipation surface 220 of the heat exchange member 22 is in contact with the electronic control assembly 16, so as to be in conduction with the electronic control assembly 16 to dissipate heat. Thus, the above another circulation loop is a heat exchange loop for heat dissipation of the electronic control assembly 16. The electronic control assembly 16 may be in direct contact with the at least one heat dissipation surface 220 of the heat exchange member 22 or may be in indirect contact with the at least one heat dissipation surface 220. The indirect contact means that in some applications, the electronic control assembly 16 is mounted on other components, and the electronic control assembly 16 is in contact with the heat exchange member 22 through the other components, so as to conduct heat.

The air conditioning system according to the embodiments of the present disclosure includes a first system 100 and a second system 200, the first system 100 includes a compressor 11, a first heat exchanger 12, a first throttle 13, a second heat exchanger 14 and an electronic control assembly 16, and the second system 200 includes a first heat exchange assembly 21 and a heat exchange member 22. The first heat exchange assembly 21 includes a first channel 211 and a second channel 212 isolated from each other, the first channel 211 is in communication with the first system 100, and the second channel 212 is in communication with the heat exchange member 22. Thus, the second refrigerant in the heat exchange member 22 absorbs heat of the electronic control assembly 16 and then enters the second channel 212, the second refrigerant in the second channel 212 exchanges heat with the first refrigerant in the first channel 211, and the second refrigerant after the heat exchange flows into the heat exchange member 22 again, so as to realize the heat dissipation of the electronic control assembly 16, thus improving the heat dissipation effect of the heat exchange member 22 on the electronic control assembly 16, enhancing the heat dissipation efficiency, and facilitating the improvement of the performance of the air conditioning system.

The first channel 211 and the second channel 211 are isolated from each other, and the first refrigerant in the first system 100 and the second refrigerant in the second system 200 are not mixed with each other, so that a flow rate of the first refrigerant in the first system 100 is stable, the superheat degree of the first refrigerant entering an evaporator of a unit is stable, and the efficiency of the system is improved. In addition, a temperature difference between the second refrigerant entering the heat exchange member 22 and the electronic control assembly 16 is relatively large, which improves the heat dissipation effect. Moreover, a temperature of the second refrigerant is relatively high, which reduces the generation of condensate on the electronic control assembly 16, thus improving the safety of the electronic control assembly 16.

In some embodiments, the air conditioning system further includes a first adjusting member 31, and the first adjusting member 31 includes a first opening and a second opening. The first opening of the first adjusting member 31 is in communication with the second opening of the first throttle 13, and the first opening of the first adjusting member 31 is in communication with the second opening of the second heat exchanger 14.

In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 5 and 6, the first system is a single stage refrigeration system, the first heat exchanger 12 is a condenser and the second heat exchanger 14 is an evaporator. The first refrigerant from the compressor 11 flows into the first heat exchanger 12, condenses in the first heat exchanger 12, and then is divided and flows into two paths after passing through the first throttle 13. In one path, the first refrigerant flows into the second heat exchanger 14, evaporates in the second heat exchanger 14, and then enters the compressor 11. In the other path, the first refrigerant flows into the first channel 211 of the heat exchange assembly 21 after passing through the first adjusting member 31 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 6), or directly flows into the first channel 211 of the heat exchange assembly 21 without passing through the first adjusting member 31 (shown in FIG. 5). The first refrigerant flowing out of the first channel 21 directly enters the compressor 11 (as shown in FIG. 1) or enters the compressor 11 after passing through the second heat exchanger 14 (as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6). Specifically, the first adjusting member 31 is an adjusting valve for adjusting a flow rate of the first refrigerant flowing into the first channel 211.

The first system 100 is not limited to the single stage refrigeration system. For example, in some embodiments, the first system 100 may also be a heat pump system. As shown in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7, the first system 100 further includes a flow direction converter 15, the first opening of the first heat exchanger 12 is in communication with the first opening of the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15, and the first opening of the second heat exchanger 14 is in communication with the second opening of the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15. Specifically, the flow direction converter 15 may be a four-way valve, and the present disclosure is not limited to this, as long as the flow direction of the first refrigerant in the first system can be changed.

The air conditioning system further includes a second adjusting member 32, a first control member 51 and a second control member 52.

The second opening of the second control member 51 is in communication with the first opening of the first heat exchanger 12 and the flow direction converter 15, or the second opening of the second control member 51 is in communication with the second opening of the first heat exchanger 12.

When the air conditioning system operates, the first adjusting member 31 and the first control member 51 are in an open state simultaneously or in a closed state simultaneously, the second adjusting member 32 and the second control member 52 are in an open state simultaneously or in a closed state simultaneously, and the first adjusting member 31 and the second adjusting member 32 are not in the open state simultaneously.

As shown in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7, the left-end opening of the first adjusting member 31 is in communication with the lower-end opening of the first throttle 13 and the right-end opening of the second heat exchanger 14. The right-end opening of the first adjusting member 31 is in communication with the upper-end communication port (as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4) or the lower-end communication port (as shown in FIG. 7) of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21.

The second control member 52 is a check valve or a stop valve.

When the air conditioning system is in use, the first adjusting member 31 and the first control member 51 are open, and the second adjusting member 32 and the second control member 52 are closed. The first refrigerant flows out of the compressor 11 and flows into the first heat exchanger 12 through the flow direction converter 15. After flowing out of the first heat exchanger 12 and passing through the first throttle 13, the first refrigerant is divided and flows into two paths. In one path, the first refrigerant flows into the second heat exchanger 14 and then enters the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15. In the other path, the first refrigerant flows into the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 through the first adjusting member 31 and, after flowing through and out of the first control member 51, the first refrigerant directly enters the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15 (in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4) or flows into the second heat exchanger 14 first and then enters the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15 (in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7), as shown by the solid-line arrows in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7.

The second adjusting member 32 and the second control member 52 are open, and the first adjusting member 31 and the first control member 51 are closed. The first refrigerant flows out of the compressor 11 and flows into the second heat exchanger 14 through the flow direction converter 15. After flowing out of the second heat exchanger 14 and passing through the throttle valve 13, the first refrigerant is divided and flows into two paths. In one path, the first refrigerant flows into the first heat exchanger 12 and then enters the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15. In the other path, the first refrigerant flows into the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 through the second adjusting member 32 and, after flowing through and out of the second control member 52, the first refrigerant directly enters the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15 (in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4) or flows into the first heat exchanger 12 first and then enters the compressor 11 through the flow direction converter 15 (in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7), as shown by the dotted-line arrows in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7.

The first heat exchanger 12 is a condenser and the second heat exchanger 14 is an evaporator. During refrigeration, the first adjusting member 31 and the first control member 51 are open, the second adjusting member 32 and the second control member 52 are closed, and a flow manner of the first refrigerant is shown by the solid-line arrows in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7.

In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 6 and 7, the first adjusting member 31 may be replaced by a first on-off member. In other words, the air conditioning system includes the first on-off member. The first on-off member includes a first opening and a second opening, the first opening of the first on-off member is in communication with the second opening of the first throttle 13, and the first opening of the first on-off member is in communication with the second opening of the second heat exchanger 14. The second opening of the first on-off member is in communication with the first communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21. The first on-off member has an on-off function, and may communicate the first channel 211 with the first throttle 13, or disconnect the first channel 211 from the first throttle 13.

Further, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3, 4 and 7, the second adjusting member 32 may be replaced by a second on-off member. In other words, the second on-off member includes a first opening and a second opening, the first opening of the second on-off member is in communication with the second opening of the first heat exchanger 12 and the first opening of the first throttle 13, and the second opening of the second on-off member is in communication with the second opening of the first adjusting member 31 and the first communication port of the first channel 211.

In some specific embodiments, the air conditioning system further includes a second throttle 33, and the second throttle 33 includes a first opening and a second opening. The first opening of the second throttle 33 is in communication with the second opening of the first adjusting member 31 and the second opening of the second adjusting member 32, or the first opening of the second throttle is in communication with the second opening of the first on-off member and the second opening of the second on-off member. The second opening of the second throttle 33 is in communication with the first communication port of the first channel 211.

As shown in FIG. 4, an upper-end opening of the second throttle 33 is in communication with the right-end opening of the first adjusting member 31 and with the right-end opening of the second adjusting member 32. Alternatively, the upper-end opening of the second throttle 33 is in communication with a right-end opening of the first on-off member and with a right-end opening of the second on-off member. A lower-end opening of the second throttle 33 is in communication with the upper-end opening of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21. Therefore, a branch where the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is located is individually controlled by the second throttle 33. Thus, by designing a resistance of this branch, an evaporation pressure of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is different from an evaporation pressure of the evaporator of the first heat exchanger 12 or the second heat exchanger 14, and the pressure of the first heat exchange assembly 21 is adjusted by adjusting the second throttle 33, so as to control a temperature of the heat exchange member 22.

The branch divided from the first system 100 is not limited to this. For example, in some embodiments, the air conditioning system further includes a third throttle 41, and the third throttle 41 includes a first opening and a second opening. The first opening of the third throttle 41 is in communication with the second opening of the first heat exchanger 12, and the second opening of the third throttle 42 is in communication with the first communication port of the first channel 211.

As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, a left-end opening of the third throttle 41 is in communication with the right-end opening of the first heat exchanger 12. A right-end opening of the third throttle 41 is in communication with the upper-end communication port of the first channel 211 of the first heat exchange assembly 21.

In some embodiments, when the air conditioning system is in use, the second communication port of the second channel 212 is not lower than the first communication port of the second channel 212 in a gravity direction, and the second communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is not lower than the first communication port of the heat exchange member 22 in the gravity direction. The second communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is lower than the second communication port of the second channel 212 in the gravity direction, and the first communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is lower than the first communication port of the second channel 212 in the gravity direction.

As shown in FIG. 2, the upper-end communication port of the second channel 212 is in communication with the left-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and the upper-end communication port of the second channel 212 is located above the left-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22. The lower-end communication port of the second channel 212 is in communication with the left-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and the upper-end communication port of the second channel 212 is located above the left-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22. Thus, the refrigerant in the second channel 212 can flow from the lower-end communication port of the second channel 212 to the left-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22 under the action of self-weight, and enter the heat exchange member 22. The principle of a gravity heat tube is adopted, so as to realize the circulation and heat exchange of the refrigerant.

It can be understood that the present disclosure is not limited to the principle of the gravity heat tube. For example, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 10, a fluorine pump 23 is arranged between the first communication port of the second channel 212 and the first communication port of the heat exchange member 22, so that the circulation and heat exchange of the refrigerant are driven by the fluorine pump 23.

In some embodiments, the heat exchange member 22 further includes a third communication port and a fourth communication port, the third communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is in communication with the first communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and the fourth communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is in communication with the second communication port of the heat exchange member 22.

The second system 200 further includes a second heat exchange assembly 24, and the second heat exchange assembly 24 includes a first communication port and a second communication port. The first communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24 is in communication with the third communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and the second communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24 is in communication with the fourth communication port of the heat exchange member 22.

As shown in FIG. 11, a right-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is in communication with the left-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and a right-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22 is in communication with the left-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22. A left-end communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24 is in communication with the right-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22, and the lower-end communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24 is in communication with the right-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22. Thus, the lower-end communication port of the second channel 212, the left-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22, the right-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22, the lower-end communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24, the left-end communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24, the right-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22, the left-end upper communication port of the heat exchange member 22 and the upper-end communication port of the second channel 212 are sequentially in communication with each other, so as to define a circulation loop. The refrigerant in the heat exchange member 22 absorbs the heat of the electronic control assembly 16, then evaporates and flows into the second heat exchange assembly 24. After passing through the second heat exchange assembly 24, the refrigerant flows into the heat exchange member 22 again and flows out of the heat exchange member 22 into the second channel 212.

Specifically, the second heat exchange assembly 24 is a condenser and may be used as a natural cooling module. When the ambient temperature is lower than a certain set value, the refrigerant after absorbing the heat of the electronic control assembly 16 first flows into the second heat exchange assembly 24 to condense into a liquid refrigerant, and then the liquid refrigerant flows into the heat exchange member 22 again.

In some specific embodiments, the second system 200 further includes a stop valve 25, and stop valve 25 is arranged between the third communication port of the heat exchange member 22 and the first communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24. As shown in FIG. 11, the stop valve 25 is arranged between the right-end lower communication port of the heat exchange member 22 and the lower-end communication port of the second heat exchange assembly 24.

When the ambient temperature is high, the stop valve 25 is closed, and the refrigerant after absorbing the heat of the electronic control assembly 16 directly flows into the second channel 212, so as to exchange heat with the refrigerant in the first channel 211. When the ambient temperature is lower than a certain set value, the stop valve 25 is open, and the refrigerant after absorbing the heat of the electronic control assembly 16 first flows into the second heat exchange assembly 24 to condense into a liquid refrigerant, and then the liquid refrigerant flows into the heat exchange member 22 again. The refrigerant flowing out of the heat exchange member 22 flows into the second channel 212 again, so as to exchange heat with the refrigerant in the first channel 211.

In some specific embodiments, the second system 200 further includes a blower or a fan 26, the second heat exchange assembly 24 is arranged adjacent to the blower or the fan 26, and an air outlet of the blower or the fan 26 faces towards a windward side of the second heat exchange assembly 24.

The blower or the fan 26 has an air outlet, the second heat exchange assembly 24 has a windward side and a leeward side, and the windward side of the second heat exchange assembly 24 faces toward the air outlet of the blower or the fan 26, so that the wind blown by the blower or the fan 26 through the air outlet may enter the first heat exchange assembly 2.

Thus, under the action of the blower or the fan 26, a gaseous refrigerant in the second heat exchange assembly 24 may liquefy speedily into a liquid refrigerant, thus improving the heat exchange performance of the second heat exchange assembly 24 and improving the heat exchange effect of the system.
