Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure discloses a heating system coupling a passive phase change energy storage sunlight room with an air source heat pump. The heating system includes a passive phase change energy storage sunlight room ( 7 ), phase change heat storage units, a to-be-heated room ( 8 ), and an air source heat pump air heater arranged between the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room ( 7 ) and the to-be-heated room ( 8 ), wherein each phase change heat storage unit ( 11 ) consists of a plurality of phase change heat storage modules ( 1 ). An opening in the front part of each phase change heat storage module faces an interior of the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room, and the phase change heat storage modules located on the top are spliced transversely, and the vent in the top of each phase change heat storage module is connected with the ventilation port of the room.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A heat supply system coupling a passive phase change energy storage sunlight room and an air source heat pump, comprising a passive phase change energy storage sunlight room ( 7 ), phase change heat storage units ( 11 ), a to-be-heated room ( 8 ), and an air source heat pump air heater arranged between the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room ( 7 ) and the to-be-heated room ( 8 ), wherein each phase change heat storage unit ( 11 ) consists of a plurality of phase change heat storage modules ( 1 ); the air source heat pump air heater further comprises an air source heat pump evaporator ( 2 ), an air source heat pump compressor ( 3 ), an air source heat pump condenser ( 4 ) and an air source heat pump expansion valve ( 5 ); wherein: the phase change heat storage units ( 11 ) and the air source heat pump evaporator ( 2 ) are arranged in the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room ( 7 ), and the air source heat pump evaporator ( 2 ) is surrounded by the phase change heat storage modules of the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room ( 7 ); a ventilation port ( 6 ) and the air source heat pump condenser ( 4 ) are arranged in the to-be-heated room ( 8 ); the air source heat pump expansion valve ( 5 ) and the air source heat pump compressor ( 3 ) are arranged on a circuit consisting of the air source heat pump evaporator ( 2 ) and the air source heat pump condenser ( 4 ); prismatic ventilation ducts ( 9 ) with a uniform size are arranged at a bottom, a front part and an upper part of each phase change heat storage module ( 1 ) respectively, and a vent ( 10 ) with the same size as that of the prismatic ventilation ducts ( 9 ) is additionally welded on a top of each phase change heat storage module; a ventilation duct ( 12 ) is arranged in each phase change heat storage module ( 1 ); the vents of the phase change heat storage modules located on the top are spliced with the vents of other phase change heat storage modules to achieve a combination of the plurality of phase change heat storage modules, and the spliced phase change heat storage modules are fixed to a solid wall of the phase change energy storage sunlight room by gluing or buckling; an opening in the front part of each phase change heat storage module faces an interior of the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room to achieve heat exchange with air in the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room through natural convection; and the phase change heat storage modules located on the top are spliced transversely, and the vent in the top of each phase change heat storage module is connected with the ventilation port of the room, which facilitates heat exchange between high-temperature hot air in the passive phase change energy storage sunlight room and air in the room through convection during daytime. 2. The heat supply system coupling a passive phase change energy storage sunlight room and an air source heat pump according to claim 1 , wherein each phase change heat storage module ( 1 ) is made of stainless steel by welding, with a heat absorption coating on its outer surface, and phase change materials being filled therein; and the phase change materials are prepared from paraffin wax and expanded graphite through compounding, and a phase change temperature thereof is between 20° C. and 25° C.
