摘要:
A heating installation for premises includes a controller coupled to an air source heat pump; a premises heating arrangement; and a local weather sensing arrangement. The controller is configured to receive weather forecast data from an external source, and local weather status information from the local weather sensing arrangement. The controller is also configured to set a control algorithm based on both the weather forecast data and the local weather status information, and control a supply of energy from the air source heat pump to the heating arrangement based on the set control algorithm; and increasing energy input into the heating arrangement in anticipation of a forecast fall in the temperature of the air from which the air source heat pump extracts energy. A method of controlling a premises heating installation is also disclosed.

In a central air-conditioning system, regional flow balancing valves for controlling flow of water return branch pipes are arranged on the water return branch pipes, and energy balancing valves are arranged on water return pipes of tail-end fan coils respectively. A control method includes: detecting flow in the water return branch pipes, and adjusting the flow in the return branch pipes to be smaller than or equal to a branch pipe set flow value; and detecting the temperature of return water in the water return pipes of the tail-end fan coils, controlling the temperature of the return water in the water return pipes of the tail-end fan coils to be greater than or equal to a tail-end return water set temperature value, detecting the room temperature and adjusting the opening degree of the energy balancing valves in temperature controllers.

A heat pump system includes a heat source unit having a variable-capacity compressor and a heat-source-side heat exchanger that functions as an evaporator for a refrigerant, and a plurality of usage units connected to the heat source unit and having usage-side heat exchangers that function as radiators for the refrigerant. The operating capacity of the compressor is controlled to bring the discharge pressure of the compressor, or a state quantity equivalent to the discharge pressure, to a first target value. The first target value is determined based on an equivalent target value equivalent to a usage temperature required in individual usage units.

A hot water supply apparatus associated with a heat pump is provided. The hot water supply apparatus performs a hot water supply operation using a high temperature refrigerant that has been discharged from a compressor, and simultaneously performs an indoor heating operation using a two-stage refrigerant cycle. This allows the apparatus to supply hot water while simultaneously providing heating/cooling to an indoor space.

A heating and/or cooling system for maintaining an environment at a desired temperature. The heating and/or cooling system includes a heat pump, a temperature sensor disposed to measure a temperature of the environment, and a system controller. The system controller may be configured to control a condensing temperature within the condenser such that the condensing temperature is set as low as possible while maintaining the condensing temperature a predetermined amount above the desired temperature that is being maintained. The system controller may also be configured to control the evaporating valve in order to vary, based on the measured temperature, an evaporating temperature in order to reduce the difference between the evaporating and condensing temperatures.
摘要:
A hot water supply apparatus associated with a heat pump is provided. The hot water supply apparatus may employ a cascade heat pump including a two-stage cycle to perform a hot water supply operation. Refrigerants flowing through a heat side heat exchanger and a usage side heat exchanger may be heat-exchanged with water. Thus, the hot water supply operation may be continuously performed, without a defrosting operation, and hot water supply performance and heating performance may be improved.
