Description

Control method of air conditioner under low-humidity heating working condition
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to a control method of an air conditioner under a low-humidity heating working condition.
Background
In order to meet the requirement of a user for rapid heating and bring more comfortable use experience, the conventional air conditioner can generally enable the compressor to rapidly increase the frequency to a higher frequency for operation when the air conditioner is just started. When the compressor is operated, refrigerant in the compressor is rapidly discharged to circulate in the pipe system. In the circulation process, the lubricating oil is discharged out of the compressor along with the refrigerant and enters the pipeline, and the dynamic balance of the lubricating oil in the whole system can be maintained only if the discharged part of the lubricating oil smoothly returns to the compressor (namely, oil return), otherwise, the compressor is damaged due to oil shortage. For the frequency conversion air conditioner, along with the increase of the working frequency of the compressor, the discharge speed/speed of the lubricating oil is faster and faster, and when the discharge speed/speed of the lubricating oil exceeds the maximum oil return speed/speed of the oil return capillary tube, the phenomenon of oil shortage is easy to generate. Therefore, in order to ensure normal oil return, during the process of rapidly raising the frequency of the compressor to a high frequency, the compressor is usually forced to operate for a period of time at a certain fixed frequency (oil return frequency), and the frequency raising is continued after the oil return is stable.
Although normal oil return is guaranteed by the arrangement mode, the compressor is forced to continuously run for a period of time on the oil return frequency, so that the frequency rising time of the compressor is too long in the process of quick heating of the air conditioner during starting, the speed of the compressor reaching the maximum working frequency is slowed down, the time for quick heating after the air conditioner is started is increased, the effect of quick heating of the air conditioner is influenced, and poor use experience is brought to a user.
In order to solve the problem, the invention patent application with publication number CN107677006A discloses a control method for an air conditioner under low humidity heating condition, and specifically, the control method controls an expansion valve to close and open the valve first, so that the compressor continuously increases the frequency in stages according to a plurality of frequency increasing speeds, thereby avoiding interruption of the compressor due to the need of waiting for oil return in the frequency increasing process, and reducing the frequency increasing time of the compressor. However, the frequency rising time is still longer, and the frequency rising time of the compressor can be further shortened, so that the quick heating effect of the air conditioner is better. In addition, the control method of controlling the expansion valve to close the valve first and then open the valve is also easy to cause the starting pressure of the air conditioning system to be overlarge, so that the exhaust pipe or the condenser of the compressor bursts.
Accordingly, there is a need in the art for a new control method of an air conditioner to solve the problem of poor quick heating effect caused by long frequency-increasing time in the conventional control method of increasing the frequency when the air conditioner is started.

The above control method has the advantage that the expansion valve is always in a valve closing state by changing the process of opening degree change of the expansion valve, rather than closing the valve first and then opening the valve as described in the background art, so that the expansion valve can always adapt to the frequency rising of the compressor, namely, the opening degree of the expansion valve is always kept in a matching state when the compressor is started and during the frequency rising of the compressor. Therefore, the compressor does not need to change the frequency raising speed to realize segmented frequency raising like the patent application in the background art, or keep the frequency unchanged for waiting for oil return like the prior art, but can always complete frequency raising at a stable high speed. Due to the increase of the frequency raising speed, the frequency raising time is shortened, and the quick heating effect of the air conditioner is enhanced. In addition, if the expansion valve is first decreased to below the first target opening degree and then increased back to the target opening degree, the starting pressure in the pipeline will gradually increase to a maximum value and then slowly decrease to a stable value, and during the pressure increase, the situation that the exhaust pipe or the condenser of the compressor bursts due to the overlarge starting pressure of the air conditioning system is likely to occur. The control mode of the expansion valve of the invention ensures that the expansion valve is always in a state of gradually reducing to a stable value, so that the starting pressure in the pipeline does not reach a maximum value, but slowly rises to the stable value, and thus, the condition that the exhaust pipe or the condenser of the compressor bursts because the starting pressure of the air conditioning system is overlarge is avoided. The control mode that makes the expansion valve aperture match in advance with the compressor when the compressor starts can make just possess assorted expansion valve aperture before the compressor starts to avoid the expansion valve to start along with the compressor and lead to the fact the not good condition of expansion valve aperture and compressor matching degree appear, improve the heating effect after the compressor starts rapidly.

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 present invention has been described in connection with an embodiment in which the expansion valve is provided with two valve-closing stages, this arrangement is not always the same, and those skilled in the art can also apply the method of the present invention to other application scenarios, for example, the expansion valve may be provided with three or more valve-closing stages, without departing from the principle of the present invention.
Referring first to fig. 1, a method for controlling an air conditioner in a low humidity heating mode according to the present invention will be described. Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a control method of an air conditioner under a low humidity heating condition according to the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, in order to solve the problem of poor rapid heating effect caused by long frequency boosting time in the startup frequency boosting control method of the conventional air conditioner, the invention provides a control method of an air conditioner under a low humidity heating working condition, which mainly comprises the following steps:
s100, acquiring environment humidity, namely, after a user presses a starting switch of an air conditioner to start the air conditioner and selects a heating mode, acquiring the environment humidity by the air conditioner through a hygrometer or a humidity sensor and the like, wherein the environment humidity can refer to the relative humidity of an outdoor environment;
s200, when the environmental humidity is not greater than the set humidity, controlling the opening degree of the expansion valve to be reduced to a reference opening degree according to a set first valve closing speed, for example, controlling the expansion valve to be reduced from 480 steps to 400 steps according to the first valve closing speed 200P/S (namely 200 steps/second), wherein the expansion valve is preferably an electronic expansion valve or other expansion valves capable of controlling the opening degree;
it should be noted that the opening adjustment of the electronic expansion valve is driven by the stepping motor, and the minimum angle range of the stepping motor is called one step, so the opening adjustment of the electronic expansion valve is generally measured by "steps". For example, the opening degree of the expansion valve is 200 steps. I.e. the stepper motor drives the expansion valve to rotate to the 200 th angular unit. Normally, when the air conditioner is in a closed state, the expansion valve is in a larger opening degree to balance the system pressure, and the opening degree of the expansion valve in the closed state of the air conditioner in the invention can be 480 steps, and of course, the opening degree can also be other larger opening degrees. The reference opening is the opening corresponding to the outdoor temperature and the compressor frequency according to the operation mode, and the setting of the reference opening is beneficial to the establishment of system pressure difference, so that the quick cooling and quick heating of the air conditioner are realized. The reference opening degree may be 400 steps, but may be other opening degrees. That is, while the outside fan is started, the expansion valve opening degree is first decreased from 480 steps to 400 steps of the reference opening degree at a first valve closing speed, for example, 200P/s (i.e., 200 steps/sec).
And S300, when the opening degree of the expansion valve reaches the reference opening degree, controlling the opening degree of the expansion valve to continuously reduce to the first target opening degree according to the set second valve closing speed, and continuously closing the valve from the reference opening degree 400 step by the second valve closing speed to the first target opening degree 350 step if the second valve closing speed is 100P/S.
S400, when the expansion valve reaches the reference opening degree, controlling the compressor of the air conditioner to start, and if the expansion valve reaches the reference opening degree by 400 steps, starting the compressor of the air conditioner.
S500, controlling the external fan of the air conditioner to start while the compressor is started, and increasing the external fan to a first target rotating speed according to a set acceleration, for example, enabling the external fan to start according to the acceleration increased by 1000r/min per second and reaching the first target rotating speed of 3000r/min in 3 seconds.
And S600, when the compressor reaches the first target frequency, controlling the compressor to stop increasing the frequency, wherein the first target opening degree is preferably an expansion valve opening degree matched with the first target frequency of the compressor, namely, when the compressor is started to the first target frequency, the expansion valve just drops from the reference opening degree to the first target opening degree matched with the first target frequency at a second valve closing speed.
It can be seen from the above description that the control method of the air conditioner of the present invention is to control the compressor of the air conditioner to start before or simultaneously with the external fan when the ambient humidity is not greater than 60%, so that the compressor can start and boost as soon as possible, and the step of starting the external fan to dissipate heat (to avoid rapid frosting) before the compressor starts is omitted, thereby shortening the boost time of the compressor and improving the heating effect after the compressor starts. The expansion valve is controlled to be reduced to a reference opening degree according to a set first valve closing speed, the compressor is started when the expansion valve reaches the reference opening degree, and the compressor is also just raised to a first target frequency when the expansion valve is continuously lowered to the first target opening degree, so that the expansion valve is matched with the frequency of the compressor through the reference opening degree and the first target opening degree when the compressor is started to the first target frequency, and the condition that an exhaust pipe or a condenser of the compressor bursts due to overlarge starting pressure of an air conditioning system when the compressor is started is avoided. The compressor can be continuously or continuously increased in frequency or reduced in a high-speed state, the frequency increasing time of the compressor is undoubtedly shortened, the heating time after the compressor is started is further shortened, and the purpose of quick heating is achieved. That is, the invention cancels the process of stopping frequency rising and waiting oil return in the frequency rising process of the compressor, and ensures the normal oil return of the compressor by controlling the opening degree of the expansion valve to be matched with the working frequency of the compressor. Meanwhile, the invention also avoids the speed reduction process when the compressor is in a sectional frequency increasing process, but leads the compressor to be directly increased to the first target frequency at a very high frequency increasing speed after being started, thus greatly reducing the frequency increasing time of the compressor and solving the problem of poor quick heating effect caused by long frequency increasing time in the prior air conditioner starting frequency increasing control method.
Of course, the reference opening degree and the first target opening degree of the expansion valve are not constant, but are related to a frequency required when the compressor is started and the first operating frequency of the compressor, which is usually confirmed by practical experiments, and the first operating frequency is different depending on the compressor power, brand, and the like. Preferably, the first target frequency is the highest operating frequency of the compressor, so that the compressor can complete heating at the fastest speed, and of course, the first target frequency may be a value close to the highest operating frequency, so that incomplete full-load movement of the compressor is ensured, and the compressor is protected, so that the service life of the compressor is prolonged. Likewise, since the reference opening degree and the first target opening degree are not completely determined, and accordingly, the time for reaching the reference opening degree and the first target opening degree is not determined, the first closing speed and the second closing speed are not constant, but those skilled in the art can perform adjustment according to actual conditions as long as the adjustment enables the compressor to be rapidly frequency-raised. Similarly, the setting of the ambient humidity is not limited to 60%, and those skilled in the art can adjust the setting based on different climatic conditions in different regions, for example, the value can be increased appropriately in dry regions, the set humidity can be set to about 65%, the value can be decreased appropriately in wet regions, the set humidity can be set to about 55%, and the like.
The principles of the present invention are further described below with reference to fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a comparison graph of the frequency increasing process of the compressor of the control method of the air conditioner under the low humidity heating working condition of the present invention and the compressor in the prior art. In fig. 2, a thick solid line represents the frequency increasing process of the compressor according to the control method of the present invention, a thin solid line represents the frequency increasing process of the compressor according to the control method of the patent application publication No. CN107677006A (hereinafter, or simply referred to as a reference patent) described in the background art, and a dotted line represents the frequency increasing process of the compressor according to the related art.
As shown in fig. 2, in the prior art, a fixed frequency-increasing speed V (e.g. 1Hz/s) is generally adopted for frequency-increasing after the compressor is started, and a first oil-returning frequency f is set during the frequency-increasing process to ensure normal oil-returning of the compressor1And a second oil return frequency f2When the compressor is raised to the first oil return frequency f1When the frequency of the compressor is increased, the frequency of the compressor is increased at the frequency increasing speed V, and the frequency of the compressor is increased at the frequency increasing speed V. Similarly, inRaising the frequency of the compressor to a second oil return frequency f2And maintaining the frequency for a period of time to ensure that the compressor continues to increase the frequency after stable oil return until the compressor reaches the maximum frequency fmaxAnd then stopping the frequency raising. As described in the background, such an up-conversion is due to the first oil return frequency f1And a second oil return frequency f2The temperature is maintained for a period of time, so the frequency rising speed of the compressor is seriously influenced, and although the stable oil return of the compressor is ensured, the requirement of rapid heating cannot be well met. In the referenced patent, the compressor employs continuous frequency boosting, but it begins with a faster frequency boosting rate V during the frequency boosting process1(e.g. 1.5Hz/s) and then, since the opening of the expansion valve is too small, the rate of the boost has to be reduced by V2(e.g., 0.7Hz/s) up-converted to a maximum frequency fmaxThe time of (2) is relatively shortened, but the shortening time is limited.
With continued reference to fig. 2, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the compressor frequency up-conversion exists in the frequency maintaining state for oil return, and the state of reducing the up-conversion speed does not exist in the frequency increasing state, but the frequency increasing speed V is higher3(e.g. 2Hz/s) up to a maximum frequency fmaxThe time required for its up-conversion is substantially reduced relative to the time in both the prior art and the referenced patent.
The setting mode has the advantages that: the invention can ensure the normal oil return of the compressor and simultaneously can enable the compressor to be quickly increased to the maximum working frequency, thereby meeting the requirement of quick heating of users. As is apparent from fig. 2, the time for the compressor of the present invention to reach the maximum operating frequency is significantly less than the time for the compressor of the prior art to reach the maximum operating frequency and the time of the reference patent through repeated experiments by the inventors.
The principles of the present invention are further described below with reference to fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a control logic diagram of the compressor, the external fan and the expansion valve when the environmental humidity is not greater than 60% according to the control method of the air conditioner under the low-humidity heating working condition.
First, only the curve control diagram of the electronic expansion valve is seen, whereinIn the preferred embodiment, we can clearly see that the first valve closing speed V21' greater than second valve-closing speed V22' of course, this is not essential, and the sizes of both are not specified but obtained by experimental data.
In addition, referring to the three curves of fig. 3, in a preferred embodiment, the step of S500 further includes:
and S510, when the expansion valve reaches the reference opening degree, simultaneously starting a compressor of the air conditioner and an external fan of the air conditioner.
The setting mode has the advantages that: when the compressor is started, the external fan and the compressor are started simultaneously, and the speed is increased to the first target rotating speed, so that heat exchange can be performed between the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and the outdoor environment quickly, the step of starting the external fan in advance is omitted, the starting time of the compressor is shortened, and the heating speed is increased.
Of course, the first target rotation speed is not limited to one form of the maximum working rotation speed, and in the case that the heat dissipation condition of the compressor can be improved, a person skilled in the art can set the first target rotation speed to any reasonable value, so that it meets more specific application scenarios, for example, the first target rotation speed may also be a certain rotation speed value close to the maximum working rotation speed of the external fan or a maximum rotation speed value that the external fan can reach at the external environment temperature.
It should be noted that the above preferred setting manner and specific values are only used for illustrating the principle of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention, and those skilled in the art can also make any type of adjustment on the above parameters without departing from the principle of the present invention, as long as the adjusted technical scheme can improve the frequency raising speed on the premise of ensuring the normal oil return of the compressor. If the valve closing stage can be further divided into three or more stages, each stage performs valve closing at different valve closing speeds, and the like.
In addition, in order to better improve the experience of the user using the air conditioner, when the compressor operates at the maximum operating frequency, the control method of the air conditioner of the present invention may further include the steps of:
s700, acquiring environmental parameters, such as current environmental temperature (such as indoor temperature);
s800, when the environmental parameter reaches/approaches the target parameter, reducing the frequency of the compressor to a second target frequency, simultaneously reducing the rotating speed of the outer fan to the second target rotating speed, and reducing the opening degree of the expansion valve to the second target opening degree, for example, when the indoor temperature reaches the target temperature set by a user or approaches the target temperature, reducing the frequency of the compressor to a rated working frequency or a working frequency matched with the external environmental temperature, simultaneously reducing the rotating speed of the outer fan to the rated working rotating speed or the working rotating speed matched with the compressor, and reducing the opening degree of the expansion valve to an opening degree matched with the current working frequency of the compressor.
The advantages of this arrangement are: after the air conditioner heats rapidly for a period of time, the indoor temperature rises correspondingly, when the ambient temperature reaches/approaches the temperature set by a user, the compressor does not need to work continuously at the maximum working frequency, the external fan does not need to work at the maximum rotating speed for heat dissipation naturally, and the expansion valve does not need to work at the first target opening matched with the compressor. At this time, the compressor is reduced to the rated working frequency or the working frequency more matched with the current environment (such as outdoor temperature), the rotating speed of the outer fan is reduced to the rated working rotating speed or the rotating speed matched with the compressor, and the opening degree of the expansion valve is reduced to the opening degree matched with the compressor, so that the normal work of the air conditioner can be ensured, and the working life of the compressor, the outer fan and the expansion valve can be effectively prolonged.
Of course, the environmental parameter and the corresponding target parameter are not all the same, but may be environmental humidity (such as indoor/outdoor humidity), target humidity set by the user, and the like.
The operation principle of the control method of the air conditioner in the heating mode according to the present invention will be briefly described with reference to fig. 3. As shown in fig. 3, when the air conditioner is in the heating mode, the working processes of the external fan, the expansion valve and the compressor may be:
starting up the air conditioner for heating → obtaining the ambient humidity, when the ambient humidity is not more than 60%, the expansion valve closes at a first valve closing speed V21' from the openingDegree B1' Start decrease opening → Via T1The expansion valve reaches a reference opening degree B 'after the time interval'2At the same time, the compressor is started and the frequency is increased according to the increasing speed V11The frequency is increased, the outer fan is started at the same time and is accelerated according to the acceleration a1' rev up → expansion valve at a second closing speed V22' continuously reducing the opening, increasing the speed of the external fan to the maximum working speed → through T2Compressor frequency up to maximum operating frequency f after time interval1' and stopping the frequency raising, the expansion valve reducing the opening degree to an opening degree B matched with the maximum working frequency3' and is stabilized at the opening degree, and the outer fan is stabilized at the maximum working rotating speed n1' → menstruation T3And T4After a time interval, the indoor temperature reaches the set temperature of the user, and the compressor reduces the frequency at a speed V12' Down-conversion while the outer fan is accelerated by an acceleration a2' reduced speed, expansion valve closing speed V23' reduced opening → warp T5After a time interval the compressor frequency is reduced to the nominal operating frequency f2'and maintained at this frequency while the outer fan speed is reduced to the rated operating speed n'2And maintained at this frequency, the expansion valve opening is reduced to2'matched B'4And maintained at this frequency.
Of course, through T1After the time interval, when the compressor is started, the external fan can be started later than the compressor, and the compressor can be started preferentially, so that the time for increasing the frequency of the compressor to the maximum working frequency is reduced.
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.
