Detailed Description
The following describes embodiments of the present invention in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The embodiment provides a heating control method for a chassis of an air conditioner outdoor unit to improve the defrosting effect, aiming at the problem that the chassis of the air conditioner outdoor unit is easy to freeze and affects the defrosting effect. Next, the heating control method of the chassis of the air conditioner outdoor unit according to the present embodiment will be described in detail.
The air conditioner comprises an air conditioner indoor unit and an air conditioner outdoor unit, wherein the air conditioner indoor unit is connected with the air conditioner outdoor unit. The outdoor unit of the air conditioner comprises a condenser and a base plate 1, wherein a groove 1-1 is formed in the base plate 1 to form an easy water storage area, a plurality of water drainage holes 1-2 are formed in the bottom of the groove 1-1, and an ice melting device 2 is arranged in the groove 1-1 and used for heating the base plate. The condenser is placed above the groove 1-1, and water formed by defrosting on the surface of the condenser falls into the groove 1-1 and is discharged through the water discharge hole 1-2, as shown in figure 2.
In the heating process of the air conditioner, when the defrosting condition is met, the four-way valve is reversed to start defrosting, high-temperature refrigerants discharged by the compressor enter the condenser through the four-way valve, the temperature of the condenser rises, frost on the surface of the condenser starts to melt into water, the water drops into the groove 1-1 of the base plate 1, and then the water is discharged through the water discharge hole 1-2. When defrosting is finished, the four-way valve is reversed again, and the air conditioner normally heats and operates.
According to the heating control method for the chassis of the air conditioner outdoor unit, when the defrosting of the air conditioner starts, the four-way valve is reversed, the ice melting device is started, and the chassis 1 is heated; after defrosting is finished, the four-way valve is reversed again, the ice melting device is closed, and the following steps are executed after the ice melting device is closed, which are shown in fig. 1.
Step S1: and detecting whether a water, ice and ice-water mixture exists in the groove of the chassis.
Because outdoor ambient temperature is lower, the water that the condenser surface drips to in the chassis recess can condense into ice, blocks the wash port, consequently, after the defrosting, whether there is water, ice water mixture in the chassis recess that needs to detect.
S11: if ice or ice-water mixture exists in the groove, executing step S2: and restarting the ice melting device, and returning to the step S1 after the ice melting device is restarted and operated for the first set time period. In this embodiment, the first set time period is 30 minutes, which not only avoids the situation that the ice is not completely melted due to too short time, but also avoids the situation that the electric energy is wasted due to too long time.
S12: if there is water or ice in the recess, the process returns to step S1 after detecting the second set time period when there is water or ice in the recess. Since the water in the groove may be being discharged through the water discharge hole without being discharged if there is no ice in the groove, it returns to S1 after the second set time period. In this embodiment, the second set time period is 20 minutes, which not only avoids the situation that the water is not discharged in time and is detected again due to too short time, so that the control is complicated, but also avoids the situation that the time consumption of the whole control logic is long due to too long time.
S13: if there is no water, ice, or ice-water mixture in the groove, step S3 is executed.
Step S3: and acquiring the temperature of the ice melting device and the outdoor environment temperature, and calculating the difference value of the temperature and the outdoor environment temperature.
Step S4: and judging whether the difference is larger than a set difference.
If so, the temperature difference between the ice melting device and the outdoor environment temperature is large, the ice melting device is not powered off, the ice melting device still heats the chassis, the chassis is water-free and ice-free, the chassis is burned dry, and electric energy is wasted, and then the step S5 is executed: the ice melting device is controlled to be powered off, so that electric energy waste and power utilization accidents are avoided.
The ice melting device is directly powered by the air conditioner power supply board, and if the air conditioner power supply board is powered off, the ice melting device is powered off. And a normally open contact of the relay K is connected in series on the power supply line of the air conditioner power supply board and the ice melting device, and the air conditioner control board controls whether a coil of the relay K is electrified or not. The air conditioner control panel controls the coil of the relay to be electrified, the normally open contact of the relay is closed, and the ice melting device is electrified; and the air conditioner control panel controls the coil of the relay to be powered off, so that the normally open contact of the relay is disconnected, and the ice melting device is powered off.
In the embodiment, the de-energizing of the ice melting device is controlled, the relay coil can be controlled to be energized first, and then the coil is controlled to be de-energized, so that the failure of de-energizing of the ice melting device caused by the relay failure is avoided.
According to the heating control method for the chassis of the air conditioner outdoor unit, after defrosting is finished and the ice melting device is closed, whether water, ice and ice water mixture exists in the groove of the chassis or not is detected; if ice or ice-water mixture exists in the groove, restarting the ice melting device, and detecting whether water, ice and ice-water mixture exists in the groove of the chassis again after the ice melting device is restarted and operates for a first set time period; if the water and ice exist in the groove, detecting whether a water, ice and ice-water mixture exists in the groove of the chassis again after a second set time period; if the groove is not filled with water, ice and ice-water mixture, detecting whether the difference between the temperature of the ice melting device and the outdoor environment temperature is larger than a set difference; if so, controlling the de-electrifying device to be powered off; therefore, according to the control method of the embodiment, when defrosting is started, the ice melting device is started, the chassis is heated, after defrosting is finished, the ice melting device is closed, and then whether water, ice and ice water mixture exists in the groove of the chassis is detected to judge the ice melting effect of the ice melting device, so that the effectiveness of the ice melting device is ensured to the greatest extent, water stored in the chassis is prevented from being frozen, the heat exchange efficiency of the air conditioner under a low-temperature working condition is improved, and the defrosting effect is further improved.
In the embodiment, the ice melting device of the chassis is additionally arranged and controlled, so that water generated after defrosting in the chassis can be effectively discharged, and the water in the chassis is prevented from freezing and being blocked. Meanwhile, through multiple control, the reliability of the chassis ice melting device is guaranteed, electric energy waste is reduced, the power utilization risk possibly caused is avoided, and the service life of the chassis ice melting device is prolonged.
After the ice melting device is controlled to be powered off, the control method further comprises the following steps, and the steps are shown in the figure 1.
Step S6: and after controlling the de-electrifying of the ice melting device for a third set time period, re-acquiring the temperature of the ice melting device and the outdoor environment temperature, and calculating the difference value of the two temperatures.
Step S7: and judging whether the difference is larger than a set difference.
If yes, it indicates that the ice melting device is failed or not powered off, and the air conditioner may also be failed, then step S8 is executed: and controlling the air conditioner to be powered off. After the power panel of the air conditioner is powered off, the ice melting device is forced to be powered off, so that the safety of the air conditioner and the ice melting device is ensured, and the problem that internal parts are damaged due to the fact that the ice melting device is not normally powered off is effectively solved.
The power failure and the control protection of the ice melting device are dual, wherein the first is to utilize a relay to perform power failure control, and the second is to forcibly power off through an air conditioner. The embodiment controls and protects the starting and stopping of the ice melting device, and avoids the influence on other parts of the air conditioner unit caused by the mistaken power-on starting or power failure of the ice melting device to the maximum extent.
In this embodiment, the value range of the difference is set to be 4-8 ℃; in the value range, the error power-off of the ice melting device caused by over-small value is avoided, and the overheating and power utilization accidents of the ice melting device caused by over-large value are also avoided; therefore, within the value range, normal power supply of the ice melting device is ensured, and dry burning of the chassis and waste of electric energy are avoided.
In this embodiment, the third set time period is 3 minutes, which not only avoids the occurrence of power utilization accidents caused by too long time, but also avoids the influence on the normal operation of the ice melting device and the air conditioner caused by frequent control and caused by too short time.
When the air conditioner is in heating operation, if the defrosting condition is met, the four-way valve is reversed, defrosting is started, the ice melting device is started, the chassis is heated, and the chassis is prevented from being frozen; and after defrosting is finished, reversing the four-way valve again, continuing to operate the ice melting device for a set time period, closing the ice melting device again to prevent water dripping into the chassis from freezing, avoiding water from freezing again and wasting electric energy, and then executing the step S1.
The ice melting device is an electric heating device, such as an electric heating tube, a resistor, an electric heating belt and the like, and the energy utilization rate can be improved to the greatest extent by accurate control, so that the unit is more energy-saving. Of course, the ice melting device can also convert other energy into heat energy, and is not limited to electric energy.
