Description

Defrosting control method for air conditioner
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of air conditioners, and particularly relates to a defrosting control method of an air conditioner.
Background
The air conditioner as a device capable of adjusting the indoor environment temperature has the working principle that: the indoor ambient temperature is lowered or raised by the refrigerant switching between the circulation lines through the high pressure/low pressure/gas/liquid state, i.e., the air conditioner is in a cooling or heating condition from the perspective of the indoor unit. Under the condition that the air conditioner is in the working condition of heating, the coil pipe of an outdoor unit (evaporator) of the air conditioner is easy to frost, and the performance of a refrigerating system is reduced due to frosting of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit, so that the heating effect of the air conditioner is influenced, the comfort of the indoor environment is reduced, and the user experience is influenced. Therefore, in the situation that the air conditioner is in the heating working condition, the outdoor unit coil of the air conditioner needs to be defrosted timely and effectively.
In order to solve the problem of frosting of the air conditioner, in the prior art, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is usually defrosted by adopting a refrigeration defrosting mode (reversing a four-way valve and performing reverse circulation) or a bypass defrosting mode (a loop is separately led out from a high-pressure end of a compressor to the outdoor unit of the air conditioner). When the refrigeration and defrosting mode is adopted, the indoor environment temperature can be obviously reduced, so that the heating effect of the air conditioner is reduced, the comfort of the indoor environment is affected, and the user experience is sacrificed. When the bypass defrosting mode is adopted, the refrigerant can continuously enter the indoor unit of the air conditioner for heating, namely, the air conditioner can still maintain the heating condition, so the bypass defrosting mode is widely applied in recent years. On the basis of determining the defrosting mode, in order to ensure that the heating efficiency of the indoor environment is not affected, the times of false defrosting (meeting the defrosting condition, but not actually frosting the unit at the moment due to the lower humidity of the air and the like) or over defrosting (meeting the condition of continuously defrosting, but actually completing defrosting the unit at the moment due to the higher temperature of the air and the like) should be avoided as much as possible. In view of this, it is important to select the proper defrost timing. The current defrosting method usually needs to introduce the ambient temperature, for example, it can be determined whether to make the air conditioner enter the defrosting mode by setting several outdoor ambient temperature intervals and setting a fixed temperature difference (difference between the ambient temperature and the outdoor unit coil temperature) in each interval. However, in this method, there is an error in determining the timing of entering the defrost, and a phenomenon of false defrost or excessive defrost tends to occur.
Therefore, there is a need in the art for a new defrost control method that solves the above-mentioned problems.

In a preferred embodiment of the above defrosting control method for an air conditioner, the preset humidity threshold is 70%, and the first preset time is 15 seconds.
In a preferred embodiment of the defrosting control method of the air conditioner, the second set threshold is greater than the first set threshold, and/or the first set threshold is 1 degree celsius, and the second set threshold is 2 degrees celsius.
In a preferred embodiment of the above defrosting control method for an air conditioner, the defrosting control method further includes a step of determining whether to exit the defrosting mode, and the step includes: after the air conditioner enters a defrosting mode, comparing the temperature of the coil of the outdoor unit with a third set threshold value; and judging whether to exit the defrosting mode or not according to the comparison result.
In a preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned defrosting control method of an air conditioner, the step of determining whether to exit the defrosting mode according to the comparison result further includes: under the condition that the temperature of the outdoor unit coil is greater than the third set threshold, judging whether the duration time of the state is greater than second preset time, and if the duration time of the state is greater than the second preset time, enabling the air conditioner to exit the defrosting mode; and if the duration time of the state is not more than the second preset time, enabling the air conditioner to maintain the defrosting working condition.
In a preferred embodiment of the above defrosting control method for an air conditioner, the third set threshold is an arbitrary value within a range of 6 to 10 degrees celsius; and/or the second preset time is any value within the range of 30-60 seconds.

In the technical scheme of the invention, whether the air conditioner enters the defrosting mode is judged according to the average value of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit based on the relative humidity of the position where the outdoor unit is located. In particular, the inventor has found that, as the outdoor unit coil frosts more and more, the temperature decay rate of the outdoor unit coil is obviously increased.

In addition, compared with the attenuation speed of the outdoor unit coil temperature, the average value of the attenuation speeds is selected as a judgment standard, so that the time window of defrosting judgment can be expanded to the maximum extent, and the false defrosting phenomenon caused by instantaneous frosting under a specific weather condition is avoided. In addition, when defrosting is carried out, the bypass defrosting mode is selected, so that the compressor is not stopped, the four-way valve is not reversed, the air conditioner continuously heats in the bypass defrosting process, the heating effect of the air conditioner can be greatly ensured, and the fluctuation of the indoor temperature is reduced to the maximum extent.

Detailed Description
Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only for explaining the technical principle of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. For example, although the steps of the method of the present invention are described herein in a particular order, these orders are not limiting, and one skilled in the art may perform the steps in a different order without departing from the underlying principles of the invention.
Based on the timing problem of entering defrosting provided in the background technology, the invention provides a defrosting control method of an air conditioner, aiming at enabling the air conditioner to enter a defrosting mode at a proper defrosting timing and avoiding the phenomena of false defrosting, excessive defrosting and the like, thereby reducing or even avoiding the phenomenon of reduction of the heating effect of the air conditioner caused by defrosting as much as possible.
Referring first to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a conventional air conditioner is shown. As shown in fig. 1, the air conditioner mainly includes an outdoor unit 1, an indoor unit 2, a compressor 3, a four-way valve 4, and a throttle device 5. The structure of the air conditioner is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail herein.
Referring now to fig. 2, the defrost control method of the present invention includes the steps of: s110, detecting the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit under the condition that the air conditioner is in a heating working condition; s120, obtaining the attenuation value of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit every first preset time; s130, calculating an average value of the attenuation values of the obtained temperatures of the coils of the outdoor unit; s140, acquiring the relative humidity of the position where the outdoor unit is located; and S150, judging whether the air conditioner enters a defrosting mode or not according to the average value of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit based on the relative humidity of the position where the outdoor unit is located.
In the description of relative humidity, relative humidity means the ratio of the absolute humidity in the air to the saturated absolute humidity at the same temperature, and the figure is a percentage. (that is, the ratio of the mass of water vapor contained in a certain humid air to the mass of water vapor contained in saturated air at the same temperature, which is expressed in percentage). The relative humidity is expressed as RH. The relative humidity is defined as the percentage of the moisture density actually contained in a unit volume of air (represented by d 1) and the saturated moisture density at the same temperature (represented by d 2), i.e., RH (%) -d 1/d2x 100%; the other calculation method is as follows: the percentage of the actual air moisture pressure (denoted by p 1) and the saturated moisture pressure at the same temperature (denoted by p 2), i.e., RH (%) -p 1/p2x 100%. In this embodiment, the relative humidity of the location of the outdoor unit can be obtained by arranging a humidity sensor in the outdoor unit.
In the above steps S110 to S150, when determining whether to enable the air conditioner to enter the defrosting mode, first determining the relative humidity of the location of the outdoor unit, and then determining whether to defrost the outdoor unit coil according to the average value of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature according to the value of the relative humidity. In particular, the inventor has found that as the outdoor unit coil frosts more and more, the temperature decay rate of the outdoor unit coil is obviously increased. Therefore, the frosting level of the outdoor unit coil can be judged more accurately by obtaining the average value of the attenuation speed of the temperature of the outdoor unit coil. On the basis, the influence of the relative humidity on the frosting of the air conditioner is considered, namely when the relative humidity of the position of the outdoor unit is different, the frosting amount of the outdoor unit corresponding to the temperature attenuation speed of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit is also different, therefore, after the judgment condition of the relative humidity is added, when the defrosting opportunity is judged by utilizing the average value of the attenuation speeds of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit, the defrosting opportunity can be selected more accurately, and the false defrosting phenomenon is effectively avoided. In addition, compared with the method for obtaining the attenuation speed of the outdoor unit coil temperature (namely the attenuation value of the outdoor unit coil temperature within the preset time), the average value of the attenuation speeds is selected as a judgment standard, so that the judgment time window can be expanded to the maximum extent, and the false defrosting phenomenon caused by instantaneous frosting is avoided. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that, when the defrosting is determined to be started only according to the attenuation speed, if the attenuation speed of the air conditioner at a certain moment reaches the time of starting defrosting due to the change of the air conditioner itself or the outside during the operation process, and then the air conditioner is recovered to be normal again (that is, the change of the attenuation speed at the moment belongs to the abnormal change), the air conditioner is started to defrost according to the attenuation speed at the moment, and the false defrosting phenomenon is caused. If the condition occurs for a plurality of times during the operation of the air conditioner, frequent defrosting can be caused. In order to avoid the situation, the invention judges whether the outdoor unit coil is defrosted or not according to the average value of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature on the basis of adding the relative humidity condition, can furthest expand the judgment time window and avoid the false defrosting phenomenon caused by instantaneous frosting.
The above steps S110 to S150 are described in further detail below.
In step S110, the outdoor unit coil temperature may be detected in real time by a temperature sensor disposed on the outdoor unit coil, or may be obtained by other known means, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
In step S120, the first preset time may be any value within a range of 10 to 20 seconds. For example, the first preset time may be set to 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds, etc., and those skilled in the art may select an appropriate first preset time according to the actual application scenario. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the first predetermined time is 15 seconds, i.e. one is acquired every 15 secondsThe temperature of the coil of the secondary outdoor unit. Then, the attenuation value Δ T of the outdoor unit coil temperature within 15 seconds is Ti-Ti+1
In step S130, an average value of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature is calculated every one minute based on the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature obtained in step S120. Specifically, the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature obtained within 1 minute are Δ T respectively1、ΔT2、ΔT3、ΔT4The average value M ═ Δ T1+ΔT2+ΔT3+ΔT4)/4。
In step S140, a relative humidity value of a location where the outdoor unit is located is obtained by providing a humidity sensor on the outdoor unit. The relative humidity is expressed as HR. In this embodiment, the humidity sensor is disposed at the air outlet of the outdoor unit to obtain the relative humidity at the air outlet of the outdoor unit, and the relative humidity at the air outlet of the outdoor unit is used as a basis for determining the defrosting time.
In step S150, it is determined whether to put the air conditioner into the defrosting mode based on the relative humidity at the air outlet of the outdoor unit and the average value of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature. For example, under the condition that the HR is greater than 70%, whether the average value of the attenuation speed of the outdoor unit coil temperature is greater than a first set threshold value is judged, and if the average value of the attenuation value of the outdoor unit coil temperature is greater than the first set threshold value, the air conditioner is enabled to enter a defrosting mode; and if the average value of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit is not greater than the first set threshold value, the air conditioner is enabled to maintain the current working condition and does not enter a defrosting mode. Preferably, the first set threshold is 1 degree celsius. Then, in this case (HR > 70%), when the average value M of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature is (Δ T)1+ΔT2+ΔT3+ΔT4) And when the temperature is more than 4 and is more than 1 ℃, entering a defrosting mode. Otherwise, that is, the average value M of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit is not more than 1 ℃, it is indicated that the air conditioner does not reach the optimal defrosting time, so that the air conditioner maintains the current working condition and does not enter a defrosting mode.
Under the condition that HR is less than or equal to 70 percent, judging the attenuation speed of the outdoor unit coil pipe temperatureIf the average value of the attenuation value of the temperature of the coil of the outdoor unit is greater than the second set threshold value, the air conditioner enters a defrosting mode; and if the average value of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit is not greater than a second set threshold value, the air conditioner is enabled to maintain the current working condition and does not enter a defrosting mode. Preferably, the second set threshold is 2 degrees celsius. Then, in this case (HR > 70%), when the average value M of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature is (Δ T)1+ΔT2+ΔT3+ΔT4) And when the temperature is more than 4 and more than 2 ℃, entering a defrosting mode. Otherwise, if the average value M of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil temperature is not more than 2 ℃, the air conditioner does not reach the optimal defrosting time, so that the air conditioner maintains the current working condition and does not enter a defrosting mode.
It should be noted that, although the first set threshold is 1 and the second set threshold is 2 in the above description, a person skilled in the art may set other suitable thresholds according to practical application scenarios, for example, the first set threshold is set to 1.5 degrees celsius, and the second set threshold is set to 2.5 degrees celsius, and so on. Since the setting of the first set threshold (HR > 70%) and the setting of the second set threshold (HR ≦ 70%) are both set according to the relative humidity, and when the relative humidity is high, frosting is relatively easy, the first set threshold is usually smaller than the second set threshold, thereby achieving the purpose of more accurately determining the timing for entering defrosting. In addition, the above value of the relative humidity may also be set according to a specific use scenario of the air conditioner.
In summary, the present invention detects the temperature of the outdoor unit coil and the relative humidity at the air outlet of the outdoor unit, and determines whether to enter the defrosting mode according to the average value of the attenuation speeds of the temperature of the outdoor unit coil based on the relative humidity. Compared with the method for obtaining the attenuation speed of the outdoor unit coil temperature (namely the attenuation value of the outdoor unit coil temperature within the preset time), the average value of the attenuation speeds is selected as a judgment standard, so that the judgment time window can be expanded to the maximum extent, and the false defrosting phenomenon caused by instantaneous frosting is avoided. That is, the average value of the decay rates of the outdoor unit coil temperatures can more accurately determine the frosting amount of the outdoor unit, and thus the defrosting timing can be more accurately selected. In addition, it should be noted that the first preset time, the first set threshold, and the second set threshold may be set according to an actual application scenario, or may be set by a user in a self-defined manner. Although the average value of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil in one minute is calculated in the above embodiment, in the actual application process, the calculation mode of the average value of the attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil may be selected according to the actual application scenario to realize the selection of the optimal defrosting time.
In addition, the control method of the invention also comprises a step of judging whether to exit the defrosting mode, and the step specifically comprises the following substeps: the method comprises the following steps: after the air conditioner enters a defrosting mode, comparing the temperature of the coil of the outdoor unit with a third set threshold value; and step two, judging whether to exit the defrosting mode or not according to the comparison result. The purpose of the first step and the second step is to determine the time for exiting defrosting. In the defrosting process, the heating effect of the air conditioner is reduced to a greater or lesser extent, so that the comfort of the indoor environment is affected. Therefore, the defrosting mode is exited at a proper time, and the defrosting time can be shortened as much as possible on the premise of ensuring the defrosting effect, so that the influence on the air conditioning heat effect is reduced.
Specifically, the third set threshold may be any value in the range of 6 to 10 degrees celsius. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the third set threshold is 8 degrees celsius. In defrosting mode, when the temperature T of the coil of the outdoor unit is detectediWhen the temperature is higher than 8 ℃, the temperature T of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit is judgediWhether the duration of the state > 8 reaches a second preset time. The second preset time may be any value within the range of 30-60 seconds. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the second predetermined time is 40 seconds, then, when the outdoor unit coil temperature T is lower than the first predetermined timeiAnd if the state of more than 8 lasts for more than 40 seconds, judging that the defrosting is finished, and selecting to quit the defrosting. When the temperature T of the coil pipe of the outdoor unitiIf the temperature is not more than 8 or the outdoor unit coil temperature Ti is more than 8 but the duration time is not more than 40 seconds, the defrosting is judged not to be finished, and the defrosting mode is continued.
It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, although the condition for exiting the defrosting is that the outdoor unit coil temperature is greater than 8 degrees celsius and lasts for 40 seconds, a person skilled in the art may set the condition for exiting the defrosting to be another threshold value within the above range according to the actual application scenario, as long as the timing for exiting the defrosting can be accurately determined.
As described above, in the defrosting mode, whether to exit the defrosting mode is determined by comparing the detected outdoor unit coil temperature with the third set threshold. Because the temperature difference of the outdoor unit coil before and after frosting is larger, whether the defrosting is finished or not can be judged more accurately according to the temperature change of the outdoor unit coil, so that the defrosting time is shortened as much as possible on the premise of ensuring the defrosting effect, and the influence on the air conditioning heat effect is reduced. In addition, it should be noted that both the second preset time and the third preset threshold may be set according to an actual application scenario, or may be set by a user in a self-defined manner.
In a preferred embodiment, the air conditioner has a bypass branch, and the defrosting mode is a bypass defrosting mode for defrosting the coil of the outdoor unit by turning on the bypass branch. Specifically, referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, in this embodiment, the air conditioner mainly includes an outdoor unit 1, an indoor unit 2, a compressor 3, a four-way valve 4, a throttle device 5 (an electronic expansion valve in this embodiment), and a bypass branch 6 for communicating the compressor 3 and the outdoor unit 1, and the bypass branch 6 is provided with a one-way bypass valve, such as a solenoid valve 61. If the defrost condition is reached, a bypass defrost mode is entered. If the exit defrost condition is reached, the bypass defrost mode is exited. The following is a detailed description of the specific operation steps of the present invention with reference to fig. 4 on the basis of fig. 3.
Fig. 4 shows a detailed flow chart of the steps of a preferred embodiment of the defrost control method of the present invention. As shown in fig. 4, in the heating operation of the air conditioner, the outdoor unit coil temperature T is detected every 15 secondsiAnd calculating the attenuation value delta T of the outdoor unit coil pipe temperaturei-Ti+1The attenuation values of the outdoor unit coil pipes obtained within one minute are respectively deltaT1、ΔT2、ΔT3、ΔT4And calculating the average value M ═ (Δ T)1+ΔT2+ΔT3+ΔT4)/4. And acquiring the relative humidity HR of the air outlet of the outdoor unit, and judging whether the HR is greater than 70%. In case HR is greater than 70%, it is judged whether M satisfies the condition: m > 1 degree centigrade. If the condition is met, entering bypass defrosting; if the condition is not satisfied, the defrost mode is not entered. In the case where HR is not greater than 70%, it is judged whether M satisfies the condition: m > 2 ℃. If the condition is met, entering bypass defrosting; if the condition is not satisfied, the defrost mode is not entered.
Specifically, when M satisfies the condition of entering defrosting, the air conditioner sends an opening control command to the electromagnetic valve 61, the electromagnetic valve 61 is opened, a part of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged by the compressor 3 enters the indoor unit 2 through the four-way valve 4 to continue heating, and the other part of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas directly enters the outdoor unit 1 through the bypass branch 6. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas can increase the temperature of the outdoor unit 1 in a short time to melt the frost. Therefore, in the bypass defrosting process, the compressor 3 is not stopped, the four-way valve 4 is not reversed, the air conditioner heats uninterruptedly, the heating effect of the air conditioner can be greatly ensured, and the fluctuation of the indoor temperature is small. And when the M does not meet the condition, the defrosting mode is not started until the M meets the condition, and then the defrosting mode is started. Regarding the calculation of the M value, it should be noted that although it is described above that M is calculated by four temperature decay values, this is only exemplary, and those skilled in the art may adjust the number of temperature decay values and the time interval for acquiring each temperature decay value according to the needs of the practical application scenario, for example, 6 Δ T may be acquired every 10 seconds, 5 Δ T may be acquired every 20 seconds, and so on. Such modifications do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
With continued reference to FIG. 4, the temperature T of the outdoor unit coil is continuously sensed during the defrost processiAnd real-time judging outdoor unit coil temperature TiAnd if the temperature is higher than 8 ℃, and the temperature is maintained above 8 ℃ for 40 seconds, judging that the defrosting is finished, and selecting to quit the defrosting. If not, the division is continuously carried outAnd (4) frosting. When the defrosting is quitted, the air conditioner sends a closing control instruction to the electromagnetic valve 61, the electromagnetic valve 61 is closed, and all high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas discharged by the compressor 3 enters the indoor unit 2 for heating through the four-way valve 4.
In order to shorten the defrosting time and improve the defrosting efficiency, the outdoor fan may be turned off to make most of the heat of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas used for defrosting. And when the defrosting operation is quitted, the outdoor fan is turned on again.
Although the above embodiment has been described by taking bypass defrosting as an example, the defrosting control method of the present invention is not limited to a specific defrosting manner, and those skilled in the art can select an appropriate defrosting manner according to the specific structure of the air conditioner, for example, a reverse cycle defrosting manner, a combination of reverse cycle defrosting and bypass alternate defrosting, and the like. The invention aims to provide a method capable of more accurately judging defrosting entering and exiting opportunities.
So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in connection with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings, but it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Equivalent changes or substitutions of related technical features can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the principle of the invention, and the technical scheme after the changes or substitutions can fall into the protection scope of the invention.

under the condition that the relative humidity of the position of the outdoor unit is greater than the preset humidity threshold value, if the average value of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil of the outdoor unit is not greater than a first set threshold value, the air conditioner is prevented from entering a defrosting mode;
and under the condition that the relative humidity of the position of the outdoor unit is not greater than the preset humidity threshold value, if the average value of the attenuation values of the temperature of the coil pipe of the outdoor unit is not greater than a second set threshold value, the air conditioner is prevented from entering a defrosting mode.
3. The air conditioner defrost control method of claim 2, wherein the preset humidity threshold is any value within 60-80%.
4. The air conditioner defrost control method of claim 3, wherein the first preset time is an arbitrary value within a range of 10-20 seconds.
5. The air conditioner defrost control method of claim 4, wherein the preset humidity threshold is 70% and the first preset time is 15 seconds.
6. The air conditioner defrost control method of claim 5, wherein the first set threshold is 1 degree celsius and the second set threshold is 2 degrees celsius.
7. The air conditioner defrost control method of any one of claims 1-6, further comprising the step of determining whether to exit a defrost mode, the step comprising:
after the air conditioner enters a defrosting mode, comparing the temperature of the coil of the outdoor unit with a third set threshold value;
and judging whether to exit the defrosting mode or not according to the comparison result.
8. The air conditioner defrost control method of claim 7, wherein the step of determining whether to exit the defrost mode according to the comparison result further comprises:
judging whether the duration time of the state is longer than a second preset time or not under the condition that the temperature of the outdoor unit coil is larger than a third set threshold value,
if the duration of the state is longer than the second preset time, enabling the air conditioner to exit the defrosting mode;
and if the duration time of the state is not more than the second preset time, enabling the air conditioner to maintain the defrosting working condition.
9. The air conditioner defrost control method of claim 8, wherein the third set threshold is any value in a range of 6-10 degrees celsius; and/or the second preset time is any value within the range of 30-60 seconds.
10. The air conditioner defrosting control method according to any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein the defrosting mode is a bypass defrosting mode for defrosting an outdoor unit coil by turning on a bypass branch; and/or the step of "acquiring the relative humidity of the position where the outdoor unit is located" includes acquiring the relative humidity at the air outlet of the outdoor unit.
