Refrigeration system and control method for starting refrigeration system
A refrigeration system and a start control method for a refrigeration system. The refrigeration system includes: a refrigeration loop having an exhaust port of a compressor, a condenser, a throttle element, an evaporator, and a suction port of the compressor connected in sequence by using a flow path; wherein a first valve is disposed between the throttle element and the condenser, and the first valve is at least capable of cutting off a refrigerant flow from the throttle element to the condenser; and a second valve is disposed close to the suction port of the compressor, and the second valve is used to control on/off of a flow path between the evaporator and the compressor. Starting load of the refrigeration system according to the present invention can be effectively reduced, so that the power and size of a drive component for providing power can also be reduced.
1. A refrigeration system, comprising:
a refrigeration loop having an exhaust port of a compressor, a condenser, a throttle element, an evaporator, and a suction port of the compressor that are connected in sequence by using a flow path;
wherein a first valve is disposed between the throttle element and the condenser, and the first valve is at least capable of cutting off a refrigerant flow from the throttle element to the condenser; and a second valve is disposed close to the suction port of the compressor, and the second valve is used to control on/off of a flow path between the evaporator and the compressor;
a hot refrigerant bypass branch;
wherein an outlet of the hot refrigerant bypass branch is connected to a flow path between the evaporator and the throttle element, and an inlet of the hot refrigerant bypass branch is connected to a flow path between the compressor and the condenser; wherein a third valve is disposed on the hot refrigerant bypass branch, and the third valve is used to control on/off of the hot refrigerant bypass branch such that the third valve is closed on compressor shut down.
2. The refrigeration system according to claim 1 , further comprising a reservoir disposed between the throttle element and the condenser, wherein the first valve is disposed between the reservoir and the condenser.
3. The refrigeration system according to claim 1 , further comprising a liquid-vapor separator arranged close to the suction port of the compressor, wherein the second valve is disposed between the liquid-vapor separator and the compressor.
4. The refrigeration system according to claim 1 , wherein the third valve is a one-way valve for cutting off the refrigerant flow from the outlet of the hot refrigerant bypass branch to the inlet of the hot refrigerant bypass branch.
5. The refrigeration system according to claim 1 , wherein the first valve is a one-way valve for cutting off the refrigerant flow from the throttle element to the condenser; or the first valve is a switch valve used to control on/off of the flow path from the throttle element to the condenser.
6. The refrigeration system according to claim 1 , wherein the second valve is a suction pressure adjustment valve used to control an opening of an upstream flow path of the suction port of the compressor.
7. A start control method for a refrigeration system, wherein the refrigeration system comprises a refrigeration loop having an exhaust port of a compressor, a condenser, a throttle element, an evaporator, and a suction port of the compressor that are connected in sequence by using a flow path; a first valve is disposed between the throttle element and the condenser, and the first valve is at least capable of cutting off a refrigerant flow from the throttle element to the condenser; and a second valve is disposed close to the suction port of the compressor, and the second valve is used to control on/off of a flow path between the evaporator and the compressor; wherein the method comprises: turning off the first valve and the second valve when the compressor is shut down;
wherein the refrigeration system further comprises a hot refrigerant bypass branch, an outlet of the hot refrigerant bypass branch is connected to a flow path between the evaporator and the throttle element, and an inlet of the hot refrigerant bypass branch is connected to a flow path between the compressor and the condenser; wherein a third valve is disposed on the hot refrigerant bypass branch, and the third valve is used to control on/off of the hot refrigerant bypass branch; wherein the method comprises: turning off the third valve and shutting down the compressor.
