Definitions

  • the invention refers to the design of a compressor for the refrigerant circuit of a heat pump device intended mainly for heating and/or cooling of buildings.
  • Heat pump heating systems extract heat from the ambient medium (air, water, soil) and make it available for use, for example by transferring it to drinking water for the preparation of domestic hot water or also by transferring it to the heating circuit for the purpose of heating the living space.
  • the basis of a heat pump is a closed circuit filled with refrigerant.
  • the heat pump, or its cooling circuit has essentially four basic parts - an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser and an expansion valve.
  • the refrigerant in the cooling circuit often undergoes a phase change, transfers heat, releases heat by condensation and absorbs heat by evaporation.
  • the heat pump circuits use a compressor.
  • the compressor which drives the movement of all fluids in the heat pump cooling circuit, is the most important and mechanically most stressed part of the cooling circuit.
  • Compressors to drive gas compression work on the principle of piston, eccentric or screw design, while in heat pumps the eccentric principle is most often used.
  • the compressor assembly consists of two parts, a compressor and an electric motor, which is used to rotate the corresponding eccentric cam to compress gas.
  • the electric motor used is either alternating current (AC) single-phase or three-phase with a squirrel cage. More modern compressors having an electronically commutated direct current (DC) electric motor are also known in the state of the art.
  • the rotor of the electric motor is made by a cylindrical permanent magnet, for example made of high temperature resistant Al-Ni-Co alloy.
  • the electric motor of the compressor is heated by refrigerant. This is due to the fact that the compressed gas outlet from the compressor part is routed into the rotor and stator area, thereby heating both the stator and the rotor of the compressor electric motor. This places unreasonable thermal load on the permanent magnet of the rotor and also on the stator coil.
  • the winding of the stator coil may be damaged (short circuit between windings, etc.)
  • Compressors with a traditional electric motor have a rather complicated operation control (a frequency converter is needed), the aim is to regulate the heat pump so that the number of shutdowns does not exceed the number set by the designers.
  • the heat pump also has a protection of the electric motor against extremely short off and on cycles (e.g. at least 3 minutes after switching off until the compressor is switched on again).
  • the invention discloses an improved compressor using a commutatorless brushless (BL) direct-current (DC) electric motor (hereinafter BLDC motor).
  • BLDC motor commutatorless brushless (BL) direct-current (DC) electric motor
  • a rotor made as a permanent magnet rotates; the rotation is achieved by changing the direction of the magnetic fields generated by the surrounding stationary electromagnetic coils. To control the rotation it is necessary to control the magnitude and direction of the current conducted into the electromagnetic coils.
  • the rotor Since the rotor is a permanent magnet, it does not need current, eliminating the need for brushes and a commutator.
  • the current to the fixed electromagnetic coils is controlled externally.
  • BLDC motors can drive continuously at maximum rotational force (torque). Even small BLDC motors can deliver considerable power.
  • BLDC motors can be controlled using feedback mechanisms to achieve the exact torque and rotational speed required.
  • the BLDC motor of the compressor can be controlled by PWM signals, no frequency converter is required.
  • BLDC motors are also characterised by high durability and low electrical noise production due to the absence of brushes. Therefore, BLDC motors are often considered preferable to brush motors in applications where it is important to avoid electrical noise.
  • the improvement of the compressor design according to the presented invention consists in the fact that the electromagnetic coils of the BLDC motor stator will be separated from the pressure part of the compressor by a housing and atmosphere (it will not be part of the internal pressure part of the compressor).
  • the refrigerant inlet will be routed to the BLDC motor rotor of the compressor and the BLDC motor rotor of the compressor will be cooled (not heated) by the refrigerant.
  • the shape of the rotor of the electric motor of the compressor is also changed from cylindrical to helical to provide additional flow of refrigerant to the compression part and to overfill the compressor chamber.
  • the rotor of the electric motor of the compressor can be made as a permanent magnet from a cheaper material designed for lower temperatures (e.g. neodymium, ferrite, etc.).
  • a compressor for the refrigeration circuit of a heat pump device intended for a heating and/or cooling device having a refrigerant inlet connection 5, refrigerant outlet connections 8, 9 and a compressor block 7 controlled by a BLDC motor, wherein the BLDC motor comprises a rotor 2 and a stator 3 equipped with electromagnetic coils 4.
  • the rotor 2 of the BLDC motor is made as a permanent magnet coupled to the shaft 1, with the shaft 1 arranged in the pressure chamber 6 of the compressor and housed in the plain bearings 11.
  • the permanent magnet (rotor) 2 has a special helical shape to improve the refrigerant flow and to overfill the pressure chamber 6 of the compressor. Refrigerant flows into the pressure chamber 6 of the compressor through the refrigerant inlet connection 5 and heated refrigerant exits through the refrigerant outlet connections 8, 9.
  • the stator 3 of the BLDC motor is equipped with six electromagnetic coils 4 and is arranged outside the pressure chamber 6 of the compressor.
  • the stator 3 of the BLDC motor is arranged on the outside of the housing 10 of the compressor pressure chamber, so that the electromagnetic coils 4 of the stator are within the magnetic field of the permanent magnet of the rotor 2.
  • the stator 3 of the BLDC motor can be mounted on the housing 10 by sliding, pressing, or in other suitable way.
  • the refrigerant is routed in the compressor pressure chamber 6 through the helical body of the rotor 2 of the BLDC electric motor to provide cooling to the rotor 2.
  • the shaft 1 and the refrigerant inlet connection 5 are connected to the compressor block 7, arranged in the compressor pressure chamber 6.
  • the compressor block 7 is constructed as a two-piston eccentric, BLDC motor-driven mechanism, with two refrigerant outlet connections 8, 9.
  • This compressor arrangement ensures that the compressed (heated and hot) refrigerant routed via outlet connections 8, 9 are no longer routed to the BLDC motor area and the BLDC motor is not exposed to heat, thus ensuring longer compressor life.
  • the refrigerant outlet connections 8,9 of the compressor block 7 are routed outside the area of the BLDC motor stator 3 location.
