Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and apparatus for thermal energy flow control, with a thermal energy source, a plurality of energy sinks and an energy cycle.
- thermal energy In contrast to other forms of energy, such as electrical energy, thermal energy is essentially impossible or very difficult to store. Therefore, there is always the problem of having to provide or provide thermal energy when requested, or to provide a corresponding energy absorption capacity when thermal energy needs to be removed from a source.
- Energy distribution systems for heating or cooling are therefore usually designed for the expected maximum load, which can lead to such systems usually not working at full capacity.
- thermal Energyieushoudars- or delivery systems only have a high efficiency, if they are operated in the optimal operating condition, which usually corresponds to almost the maximum load. If less energy is required or less energy is dissipated, such systems operate in an energetically unfavorable part-load range, which has a direct effect on the efficiency and thus on the economic efficiency.
- Systems for removing an accumulating thermal energy are generally referred to as cooling systems.
- a requirement of such a system is that the accumulating thermal energy must be transported away in order to prevent the temperature of the energy source in particular from rising beyond the permissible operating range.
- Such an energy source is, for example, a technical device whose operation involves a certain amount of electrical power loss, which has an effect, in particular, on an increase in the operating temperature of the device.
- the maximum temperature of the device, or the maximum ambient temperature is within certain limits, but in particular does not exceed a maximum value.
- a heat pump for cooling the ambient air and thus indirectly for cooling the operating device has been used so far mostly.
- a refrigerant circulates in such a heat pump, whereby heat transfer takes place between two heat exchanger systems as a result of compression and expansion. Due to the chemical properties of the refrigerant, however, the temperature range in which such a heat pump can be used is limited. A significant disadvantage is, in particular, that such a chiller requires a not inconsiderable amount of operating energy, whereby the overall energy balance of the operating device deteriorates.
- the object of the invention is to find a method for thermal energy flow guidance to derive thermal energy from an energy source such that the energy source always in an optimal. Operating state is operated.
- the object of the invention is achieved by a method with a thermal energy source, a plurality of energy sinks and an energy cycle, the method comprising the steps described below.
- the method according to the invention can always be based on the current amount of energy that performs energy flow control.
- a first energy sink is coupled to the energy cycle.
- the first energy sink is designed in such a way that at least the predominant part of the primary energy to be dissipated of the energy source can be taken up by the first energy sink and released to an environment which is not specified here.
- An advantageous feature of the method according to the invention is also that the amount of energy flow is regulated in the first energy sink, in particular until the maximum takeover capacity of the first energy sink is reached.
- each energy sink can absorb a certain maximum amount of thermal energy per time unit.
- the erf ⁇ ndungsconcee process governs regulated so much thermal energy per unit time in the first Energysenke, as it corresponds to the dissipated primary energy of the energy source, but in particular only a maximum amount of thermal energy is directed into the energy sink, as this per unit time can take maximum.
- the partial steps of the method according to the invention are repeated, but at least one further energy sink is applied to the E Nergieniklauf is coupled. In turn, thermal energy is directed into this further energy sink, whereby here too the maximum takeover capacity is not exceeded. If the transmission capacity per time unit is not yet sufficient to dissipate the thermal primary energy from the energy source, another energy giant is coupled to the energy circuit and the steps are repeated as before. In particular, as many energy sinks are coupled to the energy cycle, as are required to take over the thermal primary energy per unit time.
- An energy sink is essentially designed to take over a certain amount of thermal energy per unit time and deliver it to an unspecified environment.
- the amount of thermal energy that can be absorbed by an energy sink is limited.
- the primary energy absorbed by the energy sink can not be released to a sufficient extent to an environment, which could lead to an undesirable increase in temperature in the energy sink which would be detrimental to the process according to the invention. Therefore, according to the invention, when the absorption capacity of the energy sink coupled to the energy cycle is exceeded, another energy sink is coupled to the energy cycle and the process steps are repeated.
- the inventive method ensures that always the entire amount to be dissipated primary energy of the energy source is directed into the energy sinks, which advantageously further ensures that only those energy sinks are always coupled to the energy cycle, taking into account the maximum takeover capacity to be discharged Amount of primary thermal energy of the energy source can absorb.
- only those energy sinks or sinks are always coupled to the energy cycle, which correspond as optimally as possible to the amount of the primary energy of the energy source to be dissipated with regard to their absorption or takeover capacity.
- the measurement of a first temperature of the energy cycle for determining the amount of the primary energy to be dissipated ensures advantageously that the inventive method is only active when thermal primary energy is dissipated.
- the thermal energy source could, for example, assume an operating state, in which dissipate only a very small amount of thermal primary energy.
- the first temperature is measured where the energy source transfers the thermal primary energy to the energy cycle.
- this detection position is chosen such that a reliable determination of the energy ratios in the energy source, in particular the temperature is ensured.
- the design has the further advantage that the temperature of the energy-transporting medium can be determined well, since, in particular, a temperature curve that is as constant as possible Energy cycle is desirable.
- the determination of the amount of the primary energy to be dissipated comprises the measurement of a second temperature of the energy cycle.
- a second temperature which is particularly preferably measured at a transfer point of the energy cycle to the energy source, it is ensured that in the energy cycle, a sufficient amount of thermal primary energy was emitted to energy sinks and thus the temperature of the flowing back into the energy source heat transfer medium in a fixed Area is located.
- the energy source also operates in a particularly advantageous manner in a largely constant temperature level, which is of decisive importance for operational safety.
- the amount of primary energy is determined from a temperature difference between the first and the second temperature and the measurement of the volume flow in the energy cycle.
- Energy transport systems usually react quite sluggishly, in particular fluctuations in the energy supply of the energy source often occur with a rather significant time delay in the energy sink.
- a claimed training Therefore, it has the particular advantage that fluctuations in the energy cycle can be detected at an early stage and quite accurately, which makes rapid countermeasures possible.
- volume flow is controlled directly proportional to the amount of the primary energy to be dissipated. Since the amount of thermal energy to be transported depends, inter alia, significantly on the volume flow of the energy transport medium, this design has the advantage that the volume flow can be adapted directly to the amount of thermal primary energy to be transported and thus stable temperature conditions in the energy cycle and in the energy source can be ensured . Stable temperature levels, in particular of the first and second temperature, are of very particular advantage for the most efficient energy transport possible from the energy source to the energy sink and, in particular, the best possible energy absorption in the energy sink.
- a claimed training of the method according to the invention has the very special advantage that a significantly simple control of Energy transport is possible and thus the temperature levels in the energy cycle can be kept very stable.
- the method according to the invention for selecting the first energy sink can refer to at least one climatographic data record of the local location. Since in the method according to the invention a plurality of different energy sinks can be coupled to the energy cycle and the individual energy sinks have different absorption or absorption behavior, the choice of the first energy sink is of particular importance for the efficiency of the process according to the invention.
- a climatographic data set may only comprise the information about an average ambient temperature, based, for example, on the current season, but a degree of detail is also possible that includes current climate parameters, for example temperature and moisture profile as well as solar radiation.
- a climatographic data set can be used to derive a medium-term forecast into which energy sink the primary energy should be directed.
- the method according to the invention should fundamentally take over a heating or cooling task.
- the primary energy of the energy source is directed into an energy sink, which has a sufficient heat absorption capacity even in summer ambient temperatures.
- the primary energy is preferably directed into those energy sinks which allow a discharge of the primary thermal energy to a building or into a room.
- the very particular advantage of the method according to the invention lies in the fact that the temperature levels in the energy cycle, in particular the first and second temperature are largely the same both in cold periods and in heat periods.
- a removal of the thermal primary energy from the energy source is therefore largely possible independently of climatographic influences, in particular without the energy cycle having to be adapted to the ambient conditions or the respective energy sinks.
- the order of the coupling of the further energy sinks is controlled by a stored hierarchy profile, since this can be used to connect those energy sinks optimally to the energy cycle under the prevailing ambient conditions the energy source to be dissipated primary energy are formed.
- information can be stored in a hierarchy profile as to which amount of energy or which maximum energy flow a specific energy sink can absorb, and if applicable, climate-graphic framework conditions under which the energy sink operates optimally.
- the load profile can be formed such that a constant temperature level as possible is maintained in the energy cycle.
- the volume flow is monitored and an alarm is triggered if a limit value is undershot. Due to technical infirmities, it may happen, for example, that a media transport device arranged in the energy cycle stops its operation and thus the volumetric flow in the energy cycle ceases. Would such a failure of the energy transport not be determined quickly, Also, the primary energy is no longer transported away from the energy source, which can lead to an undue increase in temperature in the energy source, which in turn can lead to damage to the energy source.
- a design according to the invention now ensures that in the event of a failure of the volume flow, but especially if the limit value is not reached, precautions are taken to reliably ensure a safe operating state of the energy source.
- a reliable function or a high level of operational reliability of the method according to the invention it is when the first and / or second temperature is monitored and a warning is issued when exceeding and / or falling short of at least one stored limit value.
- the operating state in the energy cycle can be determined very well.
- certain temperature levels are maintained, in particular that certain temperature limit values are not reached or exceeded or undershot.
- a warning which informs a caregiver about the limit value violation via a short message.
- a second warning level is reached, whereby, for example, a device is activated which automatically brings the energy source into a safe operating state.
- the first and / or second temperature is monitored and when a stored limit value is exceeded, a high-energy energy sink is coupled to the energy cycle.
- a plurality of energy sinks are coupled to the energy cycle so as to transport the primary energy to be dissipated by the energy source into the energy sinks. If the energy sinks have reached their absorption capacity or if an unexpectedly high amount of primary energy has to be transported away from the energy source, it is possible that the temperature level in the energy cycle, in particular the first temperature, exceeds a critical operating limit.
- a high-performance energy sink For example, an air conditioner, coupled to the energy cycle and thus ensures a reliable maintenance of the temperature level in the energy cycle.
- the object of the invention is also achieved by a device comprising an energy source, a plurality of energy sinks and an energy cycle.
- a device comprising an energy source, a plurality of energy sinks and an energy cycle.
- the particularly advantageous features of the device according to the invention are that each energy sink is coupled to the energy circuit via an adjustable branch connection and that the heat transport medium flows through the energy source, the energy circuit and the sinks.
- An adjustable branch connection has the very special advantage that it is possible to determine exactly which amount of thermal energy is conducted from the energy circuit into the energy sink and thus the temperature level in the energy cycle and in particular in the energy source and the energy sink can be controlled very precisely.
- the controllable branch connection will be designed such that the volume flow from the energy cycle into the energy sink can be deflected controllably.
- a further very particular advantage is obtained when the heat transfer medium flows through all the components of the device according to the invention, since a clearly simple construction is possible, in particular no additional heat exchangers or heat pumps for adapting different temperature levels or different heat transport media required.
- the device according to the invention has the further particular advantage that, despite a simple and compact design, a reliable removal of thermal energy from an energy source to a plurality of energy sinks is possible.
- the device according to the invention can form both a cooling and a heating functionality.
- a first temperature sensor or a second temperature sensor is arranged at the transfer point at the transfer point.
- the energy sinks coupled to the energy circuit are no longer or only insufficiently able to absorb the primary energy delivered by the energy source, this will result in an increase in the second temperature, the so-called return temperature. Since this second temperature is also monitored in accordance with the requirements, reliable monitoring of the operating state of the energy circuit is thus possible. Since it is of particular importance for a reliable operation of the energy source, if it is operated in a specific temperature range, it is of very particular advantage, if at the same time the temperature of the emitted energy flow and the temperature of the returning energy flow can be detected.
- a design is advantageous in which a volume flow measuring device is arranged in the energy circuit.
- the determination of the heat flow is possible, in which the amount of primary energy is determined from the temperature difference between the first and second temperature and the volume flow.
- the detection means has the further advantage that a malfunction in the energy cycle, for example, the failure of a media transport pump, can be detected immediately and therefore appropriate countermeasures can be taken.
- the energy sink may, for example, be designed as a heating system, as a structural element of a building and as a heat exchanger, wherein combinations are also included.
- a heating system as a claimed energy sink includes all those systems that are designed to heat a dwelling or a room. For example. this could radiant and / or convection heaters, positively driven Air convectors or the like. In any case, the heating system must be able to reach with the temperature level of the heat transfer medium sufficient energy delivery to the surrounding space.

- Such structural elements may comprise all components of a building that serve the structural design or an optical and / or functional design and have contact with the surrounding airspace.
- Heat exchangers in turn are designed to transport thermal energy from the energy cycle into another medium. For example. can be discharged by means of the heat exchanger thermal energy from the energy cycle to a water reservoir or using ground probes or earth foundations in the surrounding soil.
- the particular advantage of designing the energy sink as a heating system is that the primary energy does not have to be dissipated in a complex and energy-intensive manner, but that it can be used to temper a building or a room.
- Design elements or heat exchangers as energy sinks have the very special advantage that they can absorb and transmit large amounts of energy over a longer period of time without the need for additional energy, in particular electrical energy, for example, for fans, is required.
- the heating system is formed by concrete-core-activated structural components, since thus the heating system can be integrated directly into the construction of a building without additional effort or without additional assembly steps.
- a type of heat exchanger is usually arranged after the structural completion of the building or the room. This requires additional work steps and leads due to the required space requirements to structural or structural limitations.
- Concrete core-activated components in contrast, have the very special advantage that the heat exchanger can already be integrated in a production of a component in this and thus already exists in the obstruction.
- building construction components are mostly standardized and therefore mainly produced in mass production can be achieved by the claim training a significant reduction in the cost of producing a heating system.
- first temperature is less than 30 °, or when the second temperature is less than 25 °.
- second temperature ensures that the energy sinks of the devices according to the invention can take over thermal energy at this temperature level and release it to the environment.
- this ensures that no temperature adjustment device is required in the energy cycle and thus the heat transport medium flows through both the energy source and the energy sinks via the energy cycle.
- Due to the claimed temperature levels is further ensured in an advantageous manner that no elaborately treated heat transfer medium is required, preferably a correspondingly treated water is used.
- a heat transport medium with an appropriate first temperature can thus be directed in a particularly advantageous manner directly into a heating system.
- the energy source is formed by a data processing device.
- a data processing device produces a certain amount of heat loss, which must be dissipated in order to maintain reliable operation of the data processing device.
- this removal takes place by cooling the ambient air around the data processing device, wherein the ambient temperature is usually lowered very sharply in order to ensure reliable cooling of the devices.
- the erf ⁇ ndungsdorfe device now has the advantage that a data processing device can be operated safely and reliably and that at the same time the resulting waste heat can be delivered directly to a remote environment, the temperature levels in the energy cycle are designed such that no temperature adjustment is required.
- the waste heat of the data processing device a direct heating of a room or a building is possible and, furthermore, the waste heat can be reliably released to an environment with the aid of natural convection.
- the very special advantage of the claimed training lies in the fact that despite raising the temperature level in the energy cycle over the previously known level, a safe and reliable operation of a data processing device is given.
- the data processing device can, for example. be formed by a plurality of data processing systems such as personal computers or server systems.
- the energy source is formed by a production device and at least one electrical supply, control and regulating device.
- the device according to the invention can be used in a particularly advantageous manner, since an increase in the temperature level in the energy cycle for cooling the production device is also possible without this resulting in a restriction or impairment of the operation of the production facility.
- An electrical supply, control and regulation device is also known as a so-called control cabinet or as a control cabinet arrangement and comprises a plurality of different, mostly electronic, components which, for example, supply a production facility with energy as well as control information.
- a high-performance energy sink is arranged in the energy cycle.
- Such an energy sink is, for example, formed by a heat pump or an air conditioner and brings an additional device for maintaining the reliability in the energy cycle.
- Such a high-energy energy sink can be activated, for example, when the primary energy to be delivered can no longer be absorbed by the energy sinks coupled to the energy cycle and thereby leads to a dangerous increase in the temperature level in the energy cycle.
- Particularly preferred is an embodiment in which the high-performance energy sink is coupled to the energy cycle only in case of need, that is to say only when the temperature level is increased dangerously.
- An advantageous development is an embodiment in which a media transport device is arranged in the energy circuit, which is designed in particular as a pump with or for controlling the volume flow.
- An essential feature of the device according to the invention is that the temperature level in the energy cycle, in particular the first and second temperature is largely constant. Since the amount of the primary energy to be dissipated, the energy source may possibly fluctuate, the claimed embodiment has the particular advantage that the volumetric flow is specifically adjusted in such a way that the temperature level in the energy cycle is kept substantially constant. In particular, by adjust the volume flow very good control of the thermal energy transport possible.
- the branch connection has an emergency circuit.
- the controllable branch connection for steering the volumetric flow mostly requires a form of operating energy, preferably electrical energy, but this may not be available in the event of a malfunction, it is ensured in the case of a claim according to the training that the branch connection remains in a defined rest position and thus more secure Energy removal is possible from the energy source.
- the energy source is formed by a data processing device or a production device which, in the event of a malfunction, continues to be supplied with electrical energy by an independent energy supply and thus also produces waste heat which must continue to be removed.
- the branch connections of energy sinks would take a defined rest position and allow reliable heat transfer from the power source.
- Fig. 1 a), b) schematically shows the steering of the thermal primary energy flow from the energy source to the energy sources;
- Fig. 3 is a schematic representation of the energy cycle.
- a lot of primary energy 3 is generated or is dissipate therefrom, wherein the primary energy 2 is directed in a plurality of energy sinks 4 so controlled that for example, depending on a climatographic data set, the first energy source 5 or 6 is selected and in this, until the absorption capacity or to achieve the capacity of the same, thermal energy is transferred to them.
- the amount of primary energy 3 provided or dissipated by the energy source 2 is essentially substantially constant, but is possibly subject to short-term and long-term temporal fluctuations.
- the basic criterion for the selection of the first energy sink 5, 6 is the information as to which current climate period prevails, in particular whether the primary energy has to be dissipated to an environment, or whether the primary energy or can be delivered to the building. In the following, the delivery of the primary energy to the environment is referred to as cooling or summer operation and the delivery to or into the building as heating or winter operation. Knowledge of the relevant operating mode is very important. Lich for the reliable operation of the method according to the invention and thus also for acceptance by the user or the operator.
- Fig. Ia shows the summer operation, where the majority of the primary energy 3 in the first Energysenke 5 and the remaining portion of the primary energy is passed into a second Energysenke 7.
- the first energy sink 5 is preferably formed by a cooling basin 8, which essentially comprises a container filled with water.
- a cooling basin is particularly preferably formed by a service water collector which serves to receive surface water and supplies water dispensers in which no drinking water is required. In an office building with conventional water supply, a predominant part of the required drinking water is not consumed as such, but is mainly used as a transport medium, for example in toilet facilities.
- a cooling basin 8, as used in the method 1 according to the invention now combines a very environmentally friendly use of surface water, which must be discharged or collected on the basis of structural-physiological reasons, with the discharge of part of the primary energy 3.
- Hot water systems are therefore supplied with heated water, which also has a particular advantage in terms of cleaning effect.
- service water supply systems are usually dimensioned very large volume, whereby they usually also have a very high energy absorption capacity.
- the first energy sink may comprise 5 further components, for example, a larger part of the primary energy can be dissipated by means of a well recooling 9 in the surrounding soil.
- Cooling by means of a surface cooling element 10 is also possible, for example, a roof or cover construction or a cooling tower for cooling can be used in which heated water is led out of the cooling basin via such a construction element and thus gives off heat to the environment.
- Deep wells are introduced into the ground, for example, in the well cooling system 9, and a heat exchanger is arranged in the latter, through which the heated water of the cooling basin flows, thus giving off the heat to the surrounding soil.
- the second energy sink is preferably formed by a structural element of a building, a design is preferred as a so-called cooling ceiling 11.
- a structural element can be seen as part of the support structure of a building and is therefore mostly solid or voluminous executed. In particular, however, such a structural element has contact with the surrounding air space, with a direct exposure to the sun is to be avoided.
- cooling ceilings can be wall or ceiling elements of garages, in particular underground garages, which can deliver a sufficient amount of thermal energy to their surroundings over their mostly fairly large area.
- a particular advantage of this design is that forcing energy to the environment no forced air flow is required, but that the structural conditions sufficient that even in the summer, with increased ambient temperatures, a sufficient energy release to the surrounding air space is possible. Construction elements that are used for garages, especially if they are located inside or below a building, have the further particular advantage that due to the largely constant temperature of the soil is given an excellent heat dissipation.
- FIG. 1b shows the winter operation in which the predominant part of the primary energy 3, preferably completely, is conducted into the first energy sink 6.
- the first energy sink 6 is preferably formed by a heating system 12 that delivers the introduced thermal energy to a building or individual rooms in a controlled manner.
- the primary energy 3 of the energy source 2 to be dissipated can not be completely dissipated to the building or rooms via the first energy sink 6, so that it is necessary to couple another energy sink 3 to the energy cycle ,
- the very particular advantage of the method according to the invention lies in the fact that, both in summer and in winter operation, the primary energy 3 emitted or dissipated by the energy source 1 is in each case controlled in an optimized manner into a respective first energy sink 5, 6, that is to say the entire primary energy 3 is derived from the energy source 2, without the energy circuit or at the energy source adaptation to the conditions with respect to the choice of the first and possibly further energy sinks coupled to the energy cycle would be required.
- the temperature levels in the energy cycle regardless of the respective operating case, are largely the same.
- the energy source is through a data processing device is formed in which a plurality of data processing systems are arranged in a common dwelling or in a room and deliver their waste heat to the environment.
- a data processing device is formed in which a plurality of data processing systems are arranged in a common dwelling or in a room and deliver their waste heat to the environment.
- it has heretofore been known to cool the space very strongly in order to indirectly keep the operating ambient temperature around the data processing device correspondingly low.
- the ambient temperature around the data processing device can be increased such that the temperature of the heat-transporting medium is sufficient to be fed directly into a heating system during winter operation and further allows energy to be released to the environment during summer operation without forced ventilation, but in particular without refrigeration machines is.
- the energy source has an air-liquid heat exchanger, which is flowed through by the heated exhaust air of the data processing device and emits thermal energy to the heat transfer medium in the energy cycle.
- the very particular advantage of the method according to the invention lies in the fact that the heat transfer medium flows through the heat exchanger of the energy source, the energy cycle and the energy sinks and thus no further technical devices are required, in particular for adapting different temperature levels.
- the energy source can be formed by a heat pump.
- all those devices are conceivable as an energy source, in particular combinations thereof, which are known in the art for the generation or release of thermal energy.
- fluctuations of a first energy source can be compensated for by targeted control of a second energy source, whereby a largely constant amount of thermal energy is delivered to the energy cycle.
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic representation of an apparatus for optimized thermal energy flow guidance, as they could find application in an office building.
- the energy The source of energy 2 is preferably formed by a data processing device 13 comprising a plurality of data processing systems, which discharges the accumulated waste heat to the surrounding space 14, as a result of which the air temperature in the room will increase.
- a heat exchanger 15 in particular an air-liquid heat exchanger, flows through the heated room air, removes this heat and delivers it to the throughflowing heat transfer medium.
- the energy source is coupled to the energy circuit 16, in particular the energy transport medium flows through the energy circuit and the heat exchanger of the energy source. With the energy circuit 16 is controllably coupled a plurality of E- nergiesenken 4 connected.
- the branch connections 17 are designed such that a controllable amount of the heat transport medium from the energy cycle 16 can be diverted into the respective energy sink 4.
- An energy sink is, for example, formed by a heating system 12, more preferably by concrete core-activated components.
- a line system is arranged in the interior of the component, in compliance with static requirements, through which the energy transport medium flows and thus heats the component from the inside out.
- the energy sink can also be formed by construction elements, for example as ceiling or wall elements for a garage. It is particularly advantageous if such a fence> as a garage is partially grounded or is predominantly surrounded by soil, for example. If a garage is partially or completely located under a building 18. The natural convection in such a room is then sufficient so that a cooling ceiling 11, which can deliver in their output from the energy circuit 16 thermal energy to the environment.
- cooling ceiling in this context includes all components that have direct contact with the ambient air and thus allow heat to be released to the surroundings, but which are not exposed to direct sunlight.
- the components will therefore be oriented mainly in north-east direction, but depending on the location.
- such a cooling ceiling is coupled to about 26 ° C outside temperature as Energysenke to the energy cycle, since up to this temperature sufficient heat to the environment is possible.
- a heat exchanger can be arranged in the energy circuit, preferably a liquid-liquid heat exchanger, wherein a correspondingly frost-resistant heat transfer medium circulates in the outgoing energy cycle.
- the energy sink may further be formed as a cooling pool 8, in which case the energy of the energy transport medium in the energy circuit 16 is discharged by means of a liquid-liquid heat exchanger to the water in the cooling pool.
- the cooling basin is preferably arranged underground, whereby an energy release to the surrounding soil is already possible on the boundary of the basin. By appropriate dimensioning of the volume can form a cooling tank with very large thermal absorption capacity.
- Another particular advantage of the method according to the invention lies in the fact that not only the waste heat of the energy source 2 can be transported to a plurality of energy sinks 4 via the energy cycle, but also that thermal energy can be transported between energy levels.
- the heating system 12 in summer operation also for cooling the building, in which a part of the returning and cooled energy transport medium, not only in the energy source 2, but also in the heating system 12 is passed. Due to this advantageous development, the method according to the invention brings a further economic advantage, since no additional cost-intensive chiller is required for room cooling in summer mode, but that the cooling of the data processing device and the cooling of the building by means of the same inventive method is possible.
- the very particular advantage of the method according to the invention is again that, by increasing the temperature of the heat transport medium delivered by the energy source, both the heat-emitting data processing device can be sufficiently cooled for reliable operation, and the building can be heated in winter operation and in summer operation, the building can be cooled without the need for complex and energy-intensive chillers.
- the method according to the invention has very particular advantages with respect to the environmental balance and costs compared with previously known methods.
- 3 shows a schematic representation of the device according to the invention for thermal energy flow guidance, comprising an energy source 2, an energy circuit 16 and a plurality of energy sinks 4.
- the energy source 2 is formed by a data processing device 13 and has to transfer the heated ambient air to the energy gietransportmedium in the energy circuit 16 to a heat exchanger 15.
- the heat exchanger 15 is flowed through by the energy transport medium, this medium is transferred at a transfer point with a first temperature 19, in particular the flow temperature to the power circuit 16 and is taken over at a transfer point with a second temperature 20 from the energy cycle.
- at least one media transport device 21 is arranged, this preferably redundant being designed as a liquid pump in order to reliably have a functioning pump device available.
- At the energy circuit 16 is now a plurality of energy sinks 4 arranged coupled coupled.
- the branch connections 17 are designed in such a way that controllably a certain amount of the heat transport medium can be diverted from the energy circuit into the energy sink. The heat transport medium therefore flows through the energy sink 4, gives thermal energy to this and flows back into the energy cycle 16.
- the heat exchanger 15 preferably comprises a forced air guide, for example a fan 22, in order to pass the heated room air past the heat exchange elements.
- a forced air guide for example a fan 22
- the rotational speed of the fan 22 can be regulated, with which the temperature of the ambient air can be kept very constant in a particularly advantageous manner.
- a plurality of fans may be present, wherein the air flow control then takes place via the controlled startup of the individual fans 22.
- the ambient temperature in the operating space of the energy source must be kept within permissible limits.
- the standards according to IEC 68-2-1 or IEC 68-2-2 specify permissible environmental conditions for servers and small devices. For example. According to IEC 68-2-1, the permeable ambient temperatures for the operation of data processing equipment in the range of 10 0 C to 35 ° C. According to IEC 68-2-2 the values in the range from 5 ° C to 40 0 C 5 each at 20% to 80% RH non-condensing.
- the power circuit 16 is controlled such that the temperature of the supply air, so the air aspirated by the air heat exchanger 15 is 33 0 C, and thus the requirements of IEC 68-2-1 and 68-2-2 IEC fulfilled.
- the air emitted by the heat exchanger the so-called exhaust air, whose temperature is regulated to 27 ° C.
- these temperature levels ensure reliable operation of data processing equipment in accordance with an internationally recognized standard and, on the other hand, allow the discharge of the amount of thermal primary energy to be dissipated to the environment without requiring forced air guidance, or allow the direct operation of a heating system for a building or building a room.
- the temperature levels of the energy transport medium are lower than those of the air.
- the return temperature 20 is regulated to 22 0 C.
- a warning state is reached at 26 0 C alarm is triggered.
- the processes activated thereby correspond to those described above.
- the exhaust air is specifically moistened, flows through the data processing device and heats up.
- the heated air is dehumidified, preferably by means of a non-mechanical drying agent, whereby the heat of the transported water vapor is released and thus a significantly heated air flows through the heat exchanger.
- the branch connections 17 are optimized in such a way that they provide the lowest possible flow resistance in the non-coupled state. If the energy absorption capacity of an energy sink is sufficient, bridging connections 23 can be arranged in the energy circuit in order to advantageously reduce the line length of the energy cycle and thus the flow resistance.
- a chiller 24 may be coupled to the energy cycle to be present in extreme climatic situations or in a greatly increased amount of thermal primary energy as an additional security element for forced cooling. Since such a chiller now only serves for peak coverage and thus usually has to dissipate only a small amount of energy, it can be designed to be compact.
- FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the device for optimized thermal energy flow control, which may be independent of itself, again using the same reference numerals or component designations as in the preceding FIGS. 1 and 2 for identical parts. To avoid unnecessary repetition, reference is made to the detailed description in the preceding Figs. 1 and 3 or reference.
- FIGS. 1 to 3 can form the subject of independent solutions according to the invention.
- the relevant objects and solutions according to the invention can be found in the detailed descriptions of these figures.
