Single-cooling type temperature and humidity control multi-split air conditioning system and control method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of air conditioners, in particular to a single-cooling type temperature and humidity control multi-split air conditioning system and a control method thereof.
Background
With the development of society, air conditioners have become essential living necessities for families. The multi-split air conditioning system refers to an air conditioner in which one outdoor unit is connected to two or more indoor units through a pipe. The multi-split air conditioner has the advantages of energy conservation, low maintenance cost, simplicity and flexibility in installation and the like, so that the multi-split air conditioner occupies a large market rate. Especially in hot summer and warm winter areas, the single-cooling multi-connected air conditioner is more and more emphasized.
However, with the use of the single-cooling multi-split air conditioner, some problems arise, which are particularly shown in the following: 1) the ceiling is condensed and even yellowed, which affects the beauty. When the multi-split air conditioner is in a stop state, the humidity of indoor air exceeds the standard, air blown out from the air outlets at four sides at high rotating speed can cause the air outlets to be condensed when the multi-split air conditioner runs intermittently, and the appearance is that the air outlets are hung by water drops, and a suspended ceiling even turns yellow. 2) The indoor unit is easily mildewed. Due to the limitation of the structure of the heat exchanger of the indoor unit, when the multi-split air conditioner is in a non-use state, condensed water is attached to the surface of the heat exchanger of the indoor unit, and a long time is needed for evaporation. In the process, dust, viruses, bacteria and the like are easy to accumulate in a humid environment, so that the indoor unit is easy to mildew, and the indoor air quality is seriously influenced.
At present, the main methods for solving the problem are as follows: in patent 02225003.4, a humidity sensor is installed on the indoor unit, and the indoor unit is dried by adjusting the angle of the fan and the air guide strip. Patent 201610206797.X proposes to use a blowing drying program, to use a drying mode of heating operation, and to simultaneously execute blowing and heating operation programs to dry an indoor unit. These methods can only dry the condensed water generated by the indoor unit body, do not relate to how to treat the condensed water at the air outlet and the ceiling, and do not consider how to reduce the condensed water of the indoor unit, and the effect is not obvious particularly for the single-cooling multi-split air conditioner in the areas with summer heat and winter heat.
