Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of air conditioner defrosting, for example, to a control method and device for air conditioner defrosting and an air conditioner.
Background
At present, most of main flow machine types of air conditioners have a heat exchange function of a refrigeration and refrigeration double mode, and here, under a low-temperature area or a climate condition with large wind and snow, a user generally adjusts the air conditioner to a heating mode so as to utilize the air conditioner to increase the temperature of an indoor environment; in the operation and heating process of the air conditioner, the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit plays a role of an evaporator absorbing heat from the outdoor environment, and is affected by the temperature and the humidity of the outdoor environment, more frost is easily condensed on the outdoor heat exchanger, and the heating capacity of the air conditioner is lower and lower when the frost is condensed to a certain thickness, so that the outdoor heat exchanger needs to be defrosted in order to ensure the heating effect and avoid excessive frost condensation.
Here, the defrosting of the outdoor heat exchanger is mainly performed in the following ways: firstly, reverse cycle defrosting is carried out, when the air conditioner carries out reverse cycle defrosting, a high-temperature refrigerant discharged by a compressor firstly flows through an outdoor heat exchanger so as to melt frost by using the heat of the refrigerant; secondly, an electric heating device is added on a refrigerant pipeline of the air conditioner, the electric heating device is used for heating the refrigerant flowing into the outdoor heat exchanger, and then the heat of the refrigerant is used for melting the frost condensed on the outdoor heat exchanger; and thirdly, adjusting the operation parameters of the air-conditioning components such as the compressor, the electronic expansion valve and the like to change the temperature and the pressure state of the refrigerant in the refrigerant pipeline, so that the refrigerant pipeline can also have the function of defrosting the outdoor heat exchanger.
In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that at least the following problems exist in the related art:
because the defrosting process of the defrosting mode of the outdoor heat exchanger shown in the embodiment has more or less influence on the normal heating performance of the air conditioner, the air conditioner carries out defrosting judgment before defrosting, and then controls whether the air conditioner carries out defrosting according to the judgment result; in the related art, defrosting judgment is generally performed by comparing numerical values between outdoor environment temperature and frost point temperature, and because a frosting device of an outdoor heat exchanger is influenced by various factors such as outdoor environment, self running state and the like, the defrosting judgment mode is too rough, and the requirement of an air conditioner for accurately triggering defrosting action is difficult to meet.

Detailed Description
So that the manner in which the features and elements of the disclosed embodiments can be understood in detail, a more particular description of the disclosed embodiments, briefly summarized above, may be had by reference to the embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the appended drawings. In the following description of the technology, for purposes of explanation, numerous details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the disclosed embodiments. However, one or more embodiments may be practiced without these details. In other instances, well-known structures and devices may be shown in simplified form in order to simplify the drawing.
Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a control method for defrosting an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a control method for defrosting an air conditioner, which can be used to solve the problem that when the air conditioner operates in rain and snow or under low-temperature and severe cold conditions, an outdoor heat exchanger frosts and affects the normal heating performance of the air conditioner; in an embodiment, the main flow steps of the control method include:
s101, acquiring the temperature of an indoor coil, the temperature of an outdoor coil and the temperature of an upper shell of an outdoor heat exchanger in the process of an air conditioner operation heating mode;
in an embodiment, when the outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner has a frosting problem, the outdoor environment is mostly in a severe working condition with a low temperature and a high humidity, and at this time, a user generally sets the air conditioner to operate in a heating mode so as to heat and raise the temperature of the indoor environment by using the air conditioner. Therefore, the control method for defrosting the air conditioner provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is a control flow which is started when the air conditioner operates in a heating mode.
When the air conditioner operates in other modes such as a cooling mode and a dehumidification mode, because the problem of frosting of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner generally does not occur under the outdoor working conditions corresponding to the modes, optionally, when the air conditioner operates in other non-heating modes, the flow control process corresponding to the control method is not started, so that the situation that the defrosting action aiming at the outdoor heat exchanger is mistakenly triggered in the modes such as the cooling mode and the dehumidification mode of the air conditioner is avoided, and the normal cooling or dehumidification working process of the air conditioner is influenced is avoided.
In an optional embodiment, a coil pipe position of an indoor heat exchanger of an indoor unit of an air conditioner is provided with a first temperature sensor, and the first temperature sensor can be used for detecting the real-time temperature of the coil pipe position of the first temperature sensor; thus, the indoor coil temperature acquired in step S101 may be the real-time temperature of the coil position detected by the first temperature sensor.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the temperature change of the coil position of the indoor heat exchanger is directly influenced by the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the indoor heat exchanger, so that the change condition of the heating capacity of the air conditioner to the indoor environment can be reflected from the side surface, and the heating capacity of the air conditioner can be changed along with the change of the temperature change under different frosting conditions, so that the temperature of the indoor coil is a reference factor of the attenuation influence of the frosting condition of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner to the heating capacity of the air conditioner.
In an optional embodiment, a second temperature sensor is arranged at the coil position of an outdoor heat exchanger of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, and the second temperature sensor can be used for detecting the real-time temperature of the coil position of the second temperature sensor; thus, the outdoor coil temperature acquired in step S101 may be the real-time temperature of the coil position detected by the second temperature sensor.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the temperature change of the coil pipe position of the outdoor heat exchanger can visually reflect the temperature change condition of the refrigerant pipeline of the outdoor heat exchanger under the joint influence of the external outdoor environment temperature and the internal refrigerant temperature, and is also a pipeline part of the outdoor heat exchanger, which is easy to cause the frosting problem; therefore, the acquired temperature of the outdoor coil can be used as a reference factor for measuring the frosting influence of the inside and the outside of the air conditioner on the outdoor heat exchanger.
In an alternative embodiment, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is further provided with a third temperature sensor, and the third temperature sensor can be used for detecting the real-time temperature of the refrigerant pipeline flowing through the upper shell or the upper part of the outdoor heat exchanger; therefore, the upper case temperature acquired in step S101 may be a real-time temperature detected by the third temperature sensor;
in this embodiment, the refrigerant liquid inlet pipeline of the outdoor heat exchanger is disposed at the lower portion, and the refrigerant liquid outlet pipeline of the outdoor heat exchanger is disposed at the upper portion, so that the refrigerant flows into the outdoor heat exchanger from the lower portion and flows out of the outdoor heat exchanger from the upper portion in the heating mode; therefore, the temperature of the upper shell is influenced by the temperature of the refrigerant which flows through most pipelines of the outdoor heat exchanger and exchanges heat with the outdoor environment, and the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigerant under different frosting conditions can be reflected; under the condition that the air conditioner is not frosted, the refrigerant absorbs more heat from the outdoor environment, so the temperature of the upper shell influenced by the refrigerant is higher; in the case of frost formation in the air conditioner, the refrigerant absorbs less heat from the outdoor environment, and therefore the upper casing temperature is also lower. Therefore, compared with the temperature of the outdoor coil pipe at the lower part of the outdoor heat exchanger, the temperature of the upper shell of the outdoor heat exchanger can more accurately reflect the frosting degree of the outdoor heat exchanger.
S102, after the condition that the defrosting entering condition is met is determined according to the temperature of the indoor coil, the temperature of the outdoor coil and the temperature of the upper shell, the frequency reduction operation of a compressor of the air conditioner is controlled.
The air conditioner is preset with a defrosting entry condition, and whether the air conditioner meets the defrosting entry condition can be judged according to the acquired parameters when the air conditioner operates in a heating mode; if so, the air conditioner needs to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger; if not, the air conditioner does not need to defrost the outdoor heat exchanger.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the air conditioner determines whether the defrosting entry condition is satisfied according to the three parameters of the indoor coil temperature, the outdoor coil temperature, and the upper casing temperature acquired in step S101; this wherein, the indoor coil pipe temperature can reflect the decay degree of its heating performance under the influence of air conditioner frosting, and outdoor coil pipe temperature and last casing temperature can be comparatively sensitive reflect the temperature variation condition of outdoor heat exchanger's different position refrigerant pipelines, and like this, this disclosed embodiment has synthesized above-mentioned three kinds of factor parameter and has judged to the air conditioner problem of frosting jointly, can greatly improve the judgment precision to the air conditioner defrosting to make the defrosting operation that the air conditioner triggered can accord with the real-time frosting situation of air conditioner more.
In an alternative embodiment, the defrost entry condition in step S102 includes:
Tp-T1≤△T1,T2-Te≥△T2,Tupper casing max-TUpper shell≥△T3;
Wherein, TpIs the indoor coil temperature, TeIs the temperature of the outdoor coil pipe,t1 is the initial indoor coil temperature when the air conditioner is turned on, T2 is the initial outdoor coil temperature when the air conditioner is turned on, TUpper casing maxThe maximum value of the temperature of the upper shell, T, of the outdoor heat exchanger recorded after the air conditioner is started up and operated at this timeUpper shellThe temperature of the upper shell of the outdoor heat exchanger is shown as delta T1, a first preset temperature difference threshold value is shown as delta T2, a second preset temperature difference threshold value is shown as delta T3, and a third preset temperature difference threshold value is shown as delta T3.
In the defrosting entering condition, the temperature difference between the temperature of the indoor coil and the initial temperature of the indoor coil can reflect the strength of the heating capacity of the air conditioner after the air conditioner is started. For example, when the air conditioner is frosted, the heating capacity of the air conditioner is reduced, and the rising amplitude of the temperature of the indoor coil after the air conditioner is started is limited, so that the difference between the detected temperature of the indoor coil and the initial temperature of the indoor coil is small; and under the condition that the air conditioner is not frosted, the heating capacity of the air conditioner is normal, and the rising amplitude of the temperature of the indoor coil pipe is large after the air conditioner is started, so that the difference value between the detected temperature of the indoor coil pipe and the initial temperature of the indoor coil pipe is large.
The temperature difference between the temperature of the outdoor coil and the initial temperature of the outdoor coil can reflect the change condition of the temperature of the outdoor coil under the joint influence of the internal environment and the external environment of the air conditioner; generally, when the outdoor environment has good working condition and the air conditioner is in normal operation for heating, the variation of the outdoor coil temperature compared with the initial outdoor coil temperature is limited; when the outdoor environment is changed into a severe working condition which easily causes the frost condensation of the outdoor heat exchanger, the temperature of the outdoor coil pipe is quickly reduced under the influence of the temperature change of the outdoor environment, so that the variation of the outdoor coil pipe temperature is larger than that of the original outdoor coil pipe temperature; thus, one of the defrosting entry conditions of the defrosting device is to judge defrosting according to the temperature of the outdoor coil under different outdoor working conditions.
In addition, the maximum value of the upper shell temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger and the upper shell temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger, which are recorded after the air conditioner is started and operated at this time, can reflect the heat absorption efficiency of the refrigerant in the outdoor heat exchanger under different frosting conditions, so that the maximum value of the upper shell temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger and the upper shell temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger can also be used as parameters for judging the frosting degree of the air conditioner.
Therefore, the defrosting entry condition in the embodiment of the disclosure comprehensively considers the influence of the parameters on the frosting of the outdoor heat exchanger under different working conditions, so that the judgment precision of the air conditioner defrosting can be effectively improved, and the problems of misjudgment, mistriggering and the like are reduced.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after it is determined that the defrosting entry condition is satisfied according to the indoor coil temperature, the outdoor coil temperature, and the upper case temperature, the defrosting operation of the air conditioner includes controlling a down-conversion operation of a compressor of the air conditioner.
In an embodiment, by reducing the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner, the heat absorption rate of the refrigerant in the outdoor heat exchanger can be reduced, and then adverse effects of further temperature reduction and increased frosting degree of the outdoor heat exchanger caused by heat absorption of the refrigerant can be weakened, so that the defrosting effect of the air conditioner in defrosting operation of heating the refrigerant in the refrigerant liquid inlet pipeline and the refrigerant in the refrigerant liquid outlet pipeline is improved.
Here, after the air conditioner exits defrosting, the operating frequency of the air conditioner compressor can be controlled to be recovered so as to meet the frequency requirement of normal heating operation of the air conditioner after exiting defrosting.
In some alternative embodiments, controlling the down-conversion operation of the compressor of the air conditioner includes: acquiring a corresponding frequency reduction value according to the temperature difference; the down-conversion operation is performed according to the down-conversion value based on the current operating frequency of the compressor.
Wherein the temperature difference comprises: a first temperature difference between the initial outdoor coil temperature and the outdoor coil temperature, or a second temperature difference between the upper case temperature maximum and the upper case temperature.
In the above technical context, the first temperature difference and the second temperature difference are one of the sub-conditions of the preceding defrost entry condition; therefore, when it is determined in step S102 that the defrosting entry condition is satisfied, the frosting degree of the outdoor heat exchanger can be estimated according to the first temperature difference and the second temperature difference, and then the frequency reduction value for adjusting the frequency of the compressor is selected according to the frosting degree, so as to satisfy the defrosting requirement of the air conditioner.
For example, when the frosting degree of the outdoor heat exchanger is high, the attenuation of the thermal performance of the air conditioner is high, and the frequency reduction value of the compressor is set to be high; on the contrary, when the frosting degree of the outdoor heat exchanger is low, the cost is set.
Optionally, obtaining a corresponding down-conversion value according to the temperature difference includes: and acquiring a corresponding first frequency reduction value from the first incidence relation according to the first temperature difference so as to perform frequency reduction operation according to the first frequency reduction value.
Here, the first correlation includes a correspondence between one or more first temperature difference values and the first down conversion values. An alternative first temperature difference versus first downconversion frequency is shown, for example, in table 1, which, as shown below,
first temperature difference (Unit:. degree. C.) |
First frequency reduction value (Unit: Hz) |
a1<T2-Te≤a2 |
h11 |
a2<T2-Te≤a3 |
h12 |
a3<T2-Te |
h13 |
TABLE 1
In the first correlation, the first down-conversion value and the first temperature difference are in negative correlation. Namely, the larger the first temperature difference is, the smaller the first frequency reduction value is; the smaller the first temperature difference is, the larger the first down conversion value is.
Therefore, when the frequency-reducing operation of the compressor in step S102 is performed, a first frequency-reducing value corresponding to the first temperature difference may be determined according to the first association relationship, and then the frequency may be adjusted according to the first frequency-reducing value.
Optionally, obtaining the corresponding down conversion value according to the temperature difference includes: and acquiring a corresponding second frequency reduction value from the second incidence relation according to the second temperature difference so as to perform frequency reduction operation according to the second frequency reduction value.
Here, the second correlation includes one or more corresponding relationships between the second temperature difference and the second down conversion value. An alternative second temperature difference versus second down-conversion value is shown, for example, in table 2, which, as shown below,
second temperature difference (Unit:. degree. C.) |
Second lower frequency value (Unit: Hz) |
b1<TUpper casing max-TUpper shell≤b2 |
h21 |
b2<TUpper casing max-TUpper shell≤b3 |
h22 |
b3<TUpper casing max-TUpper shell |
h23 |
TABLE 2
In the second correlation, the second down-frequency value and the second temperature difference are in negative correlation. Namely, the larger the second temperature difference is, the smaller the second frequency reduction value is; and the smaller the second temperature difference is, the larger the second down conversion value is.
Therefore, when the frequency-reducing operation of the compressor in step S102 is performed, the second frequency-reducing value corresponding to the second temperature difference may be determined according to the second correlation, and then the frequency may be adjusted according to the second frequency-reducing value.
In the above embodiment, since the degree of frosting of the outdoor heat exchanger has different influences on the thermal performance of the air conditioner, and further has different influences on the temperature change of the first temperature difference and the second temperature difference, the air conditioner is respectively provided with a separate association relationship, and the air conditioner can select one of the association relationships to determine the corresponding heating rate according to actual needs.
Optionally, the specifically selected association relationship may also be determined according to the heating requirement of the current user, for example, when the heating requirement of the current user is low, the first association relationship is selected, and at this time, the influence of the change of the outdoor coil corresponding to the first temperature difference on the defrosting effect is mainly considered; when the heating demand of the current user is high, the second incidence relation is selected, the influence of the temperature of the upper shell on the temperature of the refrigerant flowing out after heat exchange is mainly considered at the moment, the temperature is close to the return air temperature of the compressor, and the change condition of the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigerant between the indoor heat exchanger and the indoor environment caused by the influence of frosting of the outdoor heat exchanger can be reflected to a certain extent, so that the heating performance is ensured.
Here, the negative correlation ratio in the first correlation is smaller than that in the second correlation. That is, under the condition of the same value of temperature difference, the corresponding first frequency reduction value in the first association relationship is smaller than the corresponding second frequency reduction value in the second association relationship.
Here, the heating demand of the current user may be determined by setting a target heating temperature for the air conditioner; for example, a heating temperature threshold is preset in the air conditioner, and when the target heating temperature actually set by the user is smaller than the heating temperature threshold, it indicates that the heating demand of the user is low at this time; and when the target heating temperature actually set by the user is greater than or equal to the heating temperature threshold, the heating requirement of the user is high or low at the moment.
Therefore, the defrosting operation of the air conditioner on the outdoor heat exchanger can be timely triggered according to the actual frosting condition of the air conditioner, and the heating requirement of a user can be taken into consideration when the defrosting operation of the compressor frequency reduction operation is executed, so that the control requirement of the air conditioner on the comfort level of the user in the defrosting process is fully guaranteed.
In still other alternative embodiments, after controlling the compressor of the air conditioner to perform the frequency reduction operation, the method further includes: and controlling and reducing the rotating speed of an indoor fan of the air conditioner.
In the embodiment, the rotating speed of the indoor fan of the air conditioner is reduced, so that the heat exchange rate between the indoor heat exchanger and the indoor environment can be reduced, more heat can be reserved for the refrigerant flowing into the outdoor heat exchanger after the indoor heat exchanger flows out, the defrosting effect of the outdoor heat exchanger by using the heat of the refrigerant can be improved, and the running power consumption of the heating device for heating the refrigerant can also be reduced.
In still other alternative embodiments, after controlling the compressor of the air conditioner to perform the frequency reduction operation, the method further includes: and controlling to shut down an outdoor fan of the air conditioner.
In the embodiment, by shutting down the outdoor fan, the heat exchange rate between the outdoor heat exchanger and the outdoor environment can be reduced, the adverse temperature influence of the low-temperature condition of the outdoor environment on the frosting of the outdoor heat exchanger is reduced, and the heat dissipation of the refrigerant heat for defrosting is reduced, so that the actual defrosting effect in the defrosting process is ensured.

in the disclosed embodiments, Tp-T1≤△T1,T2-Te≥△T2,TUpper casing max-TUpper shellΔ T3 together constitute the preset defrost entry condition.
After the air conditioner is started to operate, the temperature sensor detects the temperature of the upper shell in real time, and the detected temperatures of the plurality of upper shells are used as historical data to be stored; therefore, when the determination step of step S203 is executed, a plurality of upper casing temperatures in the history data may be retrieved, and the maximum value T of the upper casing temperature may be determined by comparisonUpper casing max;
If the defrosting entry condition is met, the problem that the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner frosts at the moment is solved; and if the defrosting entering condition is not met, the problem that the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner is frosted does not exist at the moment.

The control method for defrosting the air conditioner can comprehensively judge whether the air conditioner meets defrosting entry conditions according to the acquired parameters of the indoor coil temperature, the outdoor coil temperature and the upper shell temperature, so that the control precision for controlling the defrosting of the air conditioner can be effectively improved; and the heat exchange quantity between the outdoor heat exchanger and the outdoor environment is reduced through the frequency reduction operation of the compressor, so that the adverse effects of temperature factors such as too low temperature on the outer surface of the outdoor heat exchanger and the like caused by a large amount of heat absorption are reduced, the frosting condition of the outdoor heat exchanger is improved, and the adverse effects of frost condensation on the heating performance of the air conditioner are reduced.

As used in the description of the embodiments and the claims, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Similarly, the term "and/or" as used in this application is meant to encompass any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed. Furthermore, the terms "comprises" and/or "comprising," when used in this application, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising an …" does not exclude the presence of other like elements in a process, method or apparatus that comprises the element. In this document, each embodiment may be described with emphasis on differences from other embodiments, and the same and similar parts between the respective embodiments may be referred to each other. For methods, products, etc. of the embodiment disclosures, reference may be made to the description of the method section for relevance if it corresponds to the method section of the embodiment disclosure.
Those of skill in the art would appreciate that the various illustrative elements and algorithm steps described in connection with the embodiments disclosed herein may be implemented as electronic hardware or combinations of computer software and electronic hardware. Whether such functionality is implemented as hardware or software may depend upon the particular application and design constraints imposed on the solution. Skilled artisans may implement the described functionality in varying ways for each particular application, but such implementation decisions should not be interpreted as causing a departure from the scope of the disclosed embodiments. It can be clearly understood by the skilled person that, for convenience and brevity of description, the specific working processes of the system, the apparatus and the unit described above may refer to the corresponding processes in the foregoing method embodiments, and are not described herein again.
In the embodiments disclosed herein, the disclosed methods, products (including but not limited to devices, apparatuses, etc.) may be implemented in other ways. For example, the above-described apparatus embodiments are merely illustrative, and for example, the division of the units may be merely a logical division, and in actual implementation, there may be another division, for example, multiple units or components may be combined or integrated into another system, or some features may be omitted, or not executed. In addition, the shown or discussed mutual coupling or direct coupling or communication connection may be an indirect coupling or communication connection through some interfaces, devices or units, and may be in an electrical, mechanical or other form. The units described as separate parts may or may not be physically separate, and parts displayed as units may or may not be physical units, may be located in one place, or may be distributed on a plurality of network units. Some or all of the units can be selected according to actual needs to implement the present embodiment. In addition, functional units in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be integrated into one processing unit, or each unit may exist alone physically, or two or more units are integrated into one unit.
The flowchart and block diagrams in the figures illustrate the architecture, functionality, and operation of possible implementations of systems, methods and computer program products according to embodiments of the present disclosure. In this regard, each block in the flowchart or block diagrams may represent a module, segment, or portion of code, which comprises one or more executable instructions for implementing the specified logical function(s). In some alternative implementations, the functions noted in the block may occur out of the order noted in the figures. For example, two blocks shown in succession may, in fact, be executed substantially concurrently, or the blocks may sometimes be executed in the reverse order, depending upon the functionality involved. In the description corresponding to the flowcharts and block diagrams in the figures, operations or steps corresponding to different blocks may also occur in different orders than disclosed in the description, and sometimes there is no specific order between the different operations or steps. For example, two sequential operations or steps may in fact be executed substantially concurrently, or they may sometimes be executed in the reverse order, depending upon the functionality involved. Each block of the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustrations, and combinations of blocks in the block diagrams and/or flowchart illustrations, can be implemented by special purpose hardware-based systems that perform the specified functions or acts, or combinations of special purpose hardware and computer instructions.
