The invention provides a variable-concentration directly-heated type
heat pump water heater with flash evaporators and a working method thereof. The variable-concentration directly-heated type
heat pump water heater with the flash evaporators comprises a main circulation loop, an air supplementing
branch and a concentration adjusting
branch, and the main circulation loop is formed by connecting acompressor, a condenser, a high-pressure
liquid storage device, a subcooler, a first expansion valve, the flash
evaporator, a first stop valve, a third stop valve, a second expansion valve and an
evaporator; the air supplementing
branch is provided with the flash
evaporator and a second stop valve which are connected in sequence; and the concentration adjusting branch is formed by connecting a working medium supplementing expansion valve, a
component separation and working medium
storage tank, an air supplementing concentration adjusting valve and a liquid supplementing concentration adjustingvalve. According to the variable-concentration directly-heated type
heat pump water heater, based on the principle of
advantage complementation, enhanced vapor injection and working medium concentration adjusting technologies are comprehensively applied to the
heat pump water heater, the low-temperature performance and annual comprehensive energy efficiency of the
heat pump water heater can be remarkably improved, meanwhile, the applicable temperature range of the
heat pump water heater is obviously widened, and the heat pump water heater further has the advantages of being simple in rectification structure, high in
component separation efficiency, safe, reliable and the like.
