The instant freezing chamber control method according to the present embodiment will be described below.
As shown in fig. 1, a method for controlling an instant freezer includes the steps of:
s01: a multi-stage cooling and supercooling process:
n cooling stages are arranged in the multi-stage cooling and supercooling process and are divided into the 1 st stage, … … i stage and the … … th stage, wherein the ith cooling stage represents any one stage of the n cooling stages, i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n, n is a natural number and is more than or equal to 2, and all the following limitations on any one stage are replaced by the ith stage.
S01A: and controlling the instant freezing chamber to operate at a preset temperature T1 for T1 time by the control device, and controlling the compressor to rotate at a second rotating speed M2 during T1 time. The second compressor speed is the maximum compressor speed.
The beneficial effects are that: when the object to be cooled needs to be cooled, the rotating speed of the compressor is increased, so that the cooling capacity is increased, the cooling rate of the instant freezing chamber is increased, the object to be cooled is enabled to be more quickly stabilized in the temperature vicinity of T1, and the early preparation time for the object to be cooled to enter the overcooling state is shortened. The 1 st temperature reduction stage controls the instantaneous freezing chamber to operate according to the preset temperature T1, so that the temperature of the instantaneous freezing chamber is kept in a small range temperature interval containing the temperature T1, the overall temperature of the instantaneous freezing chamber is convenient to uniformly reduce in the subsequent multi-stage temperature reduction and supercooling process, the temperature difference between the surface and the inside of the cooled object placed in the instantaneous freezing chamber is smaller, and the cooled object is more favorable for smoothly entering a supercooling state in the subsequent multi-stage temperature reduction process.
Furthermore, T1 is more than 0 ℃ at the temperature of 5 ℃ or more, and T1 is more than 0h at the temperature of 8h or more.
Further, before step S01, the method further includes the steps of: aS 01: the user selects the instant freeze function. The user can turn on the flash chamber control method of executing the flash chamber 12 through a flash function button provided in the display 32 on the refrigerator.
S01B: and after the step S01A is finished, the compressor is operated at a first rotating speed M1, in the S01 multi-stage cooling and supercooling process, the condenser fan is always operated at the first rotating speed S1, and the rotating speed M2 of the compressor is more than M1. The method has the advantages that the rotating speed of the compressor at the S01B stage is recovered to M1, and the cooling capacity can be reduced by reducing the rotating speed of the compressor. When the cooled food enters the overcooling state, the food needs to be cooled at a slower cooling rate and at a lower cooling capacity, so that the cooled food can successfully enter the overcooling state and is not easy to be released from the overcooling state, and therefore, the effect can be realized by reducing the rotating speed of the compressor.
The supercooling and cooling process comprises n cooling stages, wherein each cooling stage of the n cooling stages implements cooling control on a cooled object, and in the cooling control, an air supply device implementing air cooling is controlled according to a preset temperature Tn of the cooling stage;
during the control process of air cooling the food in the i stage, T is usedONi=Ti+TB1The temperature T is used as the starting temperature point of the air supply device in the ith stageoffi=TONi-TB2[ ii ] 2 as the shutdown temperature point of the blower in the i-th stage, TB1Indicates the floating temperature T of the starting point of the instant freezing chamber (2) in the starting process of the compressorB2Temperature difference between instant freezing chamber start and stop, TONi>Ti>Toffi。
In the i-th stage:
when the storage temperature of the instant freezing chamber reaches TONi=Ti+TB1When the pressure exceeds 2, the air supply device is controlled to work;
when the storage temperature of the instant freezing chamber reaches Toffi=TONi-TB2And when the pressure exceeds 2, controlling the air supply device not to work.
Further, the value range of the time ti for performing cooling control on the cooled object in the ith stage in the supercooling and cooling process is 0h < ti is less than or equal to 8 h. The beneficial effects are that: the control of the cooling time ti is implemented through the timer and the controller in a single cooling stage, which is beneficial to reducing the temperature difference between the surface and the inside of the cooled object in the single cooling stage, increasing the success probability of the cooled object entering the supercooling state, and also avoiding that the cooled object which has entered the supercooling state can easily release the supercooling state in advance.
Further, TB1And TB2For a known parameter, TB1The value range of (A) is 0 DEG C<TB1≤2℃,TB2The value range of (A) is 0 DEG C<TB2≤2℃。
Further, the air supply device is controlled to control the cold air supply door.
Further, the cooling air door is provided with a baffle capable of realizing mechanical control.
Furthermore, the value range of the first rotating speed M1 of the compressor is that the rotating speed is more than or equal to 1200rpm and less than or equal to M1 and less than or equal to 1400rpm, and the value range of the second rotating speed M2 of the compressor is that the rotating speed is more than or equal to 3800rpm and less than or equal to M2 and less than or equal to 4500 rpm.
Furthermore, Tn is more than or equal to-15 ℃ and less than or equal to Tn +1 is more than or equal to T2<0 ℃ and i is more than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to n in the S01B step in the multi-stage cooling and supercooling process.
S02: supercooling release process: the control device increases the rotation speed of the condenser fan, the rotation speed of the condenser fan is enabled to operate for a time ta at a second rotation speed S2, S2> S1, and the compressor operates at a first rotation speed M1 in the supercooling release process. This has the advantage that the supercooled state is unstable, and that a certain stimulus is required to release the supercooled state, and this stimulus may be a temperature factor or a physical factor. The present embodiment achieves an increase in the amount of cooling supplied to the instant freezing chamber during the supercooling release process by increasing the rotation speed of the condenser fan, thereby allowing the food to be quickly released from the supercooled state. After the food is released from the overcooling state, uniform, fine and smooth ice crystals can be quickly formed to achieve the effect of instant freezing, and the formed fine ice crystals have smaller damage to tissues, fibers or cells of the food, particularly meat products, compared with large needle-shaped ice crystals formed by common freezing. The loss of nutrient substances of the food after thawing can be better avoided, and the flavor of the food can be better maintained.
Furthermore, the value range of the first rotating speed S1 of the condenser fan is 1200 rpm-S1-1500 rpm, and the value range of the second rotating speed S2 of the condenser fan is 1600 rpm-S2-1900 rpm.
Furthermore, the value range of the condenser fan in the supercooling release process for the ta time at the second rotating speed S2 is more than or equal to 10h and more than ta and more than 0 h.
S03: and (3) conventional refrigeration preservation process: and (4) restoring the rotating speed of the condenser fan to the rotating speed S1 of the step S01, operating the compressors at the first rotating speed M1, and controlling the instant freezing chamber to be in the conventional refrigeration preservation temperature range according to the preset temperature Tc.
Further, the value range of the preset temperature Tc in the conventional refrigeration storage process is that T is more than or equal to minus 7 ℃ and less than 0 ℃.
Further, the method for controlling the instant freezing chamber within the conventional refrigeration preservation temperature range according to the preset temperature Tc by the conventional preservation phase chamber comprises the following steps: when the temperature of the instant freezing chamber reaches a first starting temperature point TONc, opening an air door of the instant freezing chamber; when the temperature of the instant freezing chamber reaches a first shutdown temperature point TOFFc, closing the air door of the instant freezing chamber; t isONc=Tc+TB1/2,TOFFc=TONc–TB2/2;TB1Indicating the floating temperature of a starting point of an instant freezing chamber in the starting process of the compressor;TB2the temperature difference between the start and stop of the instant freezing chamber.
The method has the beneficial effect that the shelf life of the food in the supercooling process can be prolonged in the conventional refrigeration preservation. The instantaneous freezing chamber 12 is controlled by judging the temperature of the instantaneous freezing chamber 12, so that the functions of controlling the instantaneous freezing chamber according to the preset temperature Tc and reducing energy consumption can be realized at the same time, and the economic efficiency of the instantaneous freezing chamber control method is improved.
As shown in fig. 6, fig. 6 is a graph showing the temperature of the food stored in the instant freezing chamber as a function of time during the whole supercooling process according to the embodiment of the present invention. And (3) rapidly cooling the instant freezing chamber in the temperature range above zero degree in the S01A stage. The temperature of the food starts to be ready to enter the supercooled state at the low temperature region T1 slightly higher than zero. The stage S01B is a stage of supercooling, in which the temperature of the food is slowly reduced under the control of the cooling of the instant freezing chamber, the temperature of the food is lower than the freezing point of the food and is not frozen, and the food is successfully in a supercooled state. The supercooling release process of S02 in this embodiment increases the rotational speed of the condenser fan to increase the amount of cooling supplied to the flash chamber during the supercooling release process, thereby releasing the supercooled state from the temperature of the food. When the food is in the supercooling state, the food undergoes an instant freezing process, namely the temperature of the food is rapidly increased from the temperature lower than the freezing point in the supercooling state to the freezing point temperature, and the temperature of the food is maintained at the freezing point temperature for a period of time in the freezing process until the food is completely frozen. The instant freezing chamber is controlled at a preset temperature Tc during the regular refrigerated preservation at S03 such that the temperature of the food is lowered from the freezing point temperature to the Tc temperature, and the temperature of the food is maintained at substantially the Tc temperature during the subsequent regular refrigerated preservation.
In summary, the present invention is optimized by a more rational control method of the whole supercooling process, and even if the passage time of the temperature zone is long, the frozen ice crystals do not grow and fine ice crystals can be formed. A novel freezing method is to form small ice crystals by freezing a temperature zone including the vicinity of the maximum ice crystal temperature zone, and to obtain good-quality frozen ice. Further, if the supercooled state is released, freezing starts, and the food is completely frozen after passing through the phase change state in which the temperature does not change, the supercooled state causes ice crystals not to grow even if the food stays in the maximum ice crystal formation zone for a long time in the subsequent freezing process, and causes other than the ice crystals that deteriorate the quality of the food can be avoided, and high-quality freezing can be performed.
