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:
for the above reverse circulation defrosting mode, because the indoor heat exchanger is generally in a heat absorption state, in order to avoid discomfort to users caused by indoor cooling under a heating working condition, the heat absorption efficiency of the indoor heat exchanger is mostly inhibited by adopting modes of closing a fan, closing a small air deflector and the like; under the condition, because a large amount of refrigerants directly flow to the outdoor for heat exchange to defrost, the refrigerants after heat release are changed from gaseous state to liquid state, and meanwhile, the refrigerant evaporation function of the indoor heat exchanger is inhibited, so that more and more liquid refrigerants and less gaseous refrigerants are contained in the refrigerant circulation loop of the air conditioner, the temperature and flow of returned air and sucked air of the compressor are further reduced, and finally the defrosting capacity of the whole air conditioner is reduced along with the time.

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, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a control method for defrosting an air conditioner, which can be used to solve the problem that the defrosting capability of the air conditioner gradually decreases when the air conditioner operates in a defrosting mode under rainy or snowy or low-temperature and severe cold conditions; in an embodiment, the main flow steps of the control method include:
s101, responding to the condition that the air conditioner meets defrosting and air supplementing conditions, controlling the air conditioner to enter a reverse circulation defrosting mode and supplementing air to a compressor;
in some optional embodiments, the defrost air supplement conditions include: the temperature of the external ring of T is less than A, and T exhaust is less than B; wherein T outer ring temperature is outdoor environment temperature, T exhaust is exhaust temperature of the compressor, A is outer ring temperature threshold, and B is exhaust temperature threshold.
Therefore, before step S101 is executed, the outdoor environment temperature of the outdoor environment corresponding to the air conditioner and the discharge temperature of the compressor need to be obtained.
Optionally, the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is provided with a temperature sensor, and the temperature sensor can be used for detecting the real-time temperature of the outdoor environment where the outdoor unit is located; still alternatively, the discharge end of the air conditioner compressor is provided with another temperature sensor, which can be used to detect the discharge temperature of the compressor. Therefore, the embodiment of the present disclosure can acquire real-time temperature data detected by the two temperature sensors as the outdoor ambient temperature and the exhaust temperature for determining whether the defrosting air supplement condition is satisfied.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the reverse-circulation defrosting mode is to control the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation loop of the air conditioner to flow in the same flow direction as the heating mode, at this time, the high-temperature refrigerant discharged by the compressor firstly flows through the outdoor heat exchanger, and the heat carried by the refrigerant can be conducted to the outdoor heat exchanger, so that the frost condensed on the outer surface of the outdoor heat exchanger can absorb heat to melt, thereby achieving the purpose of defrosting the outdoor heat exchanger.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the air is supplemented to the compressor in step S101, and the temperature and the flow rate of the gaseous refrigerant in the refrigerant flowing back to the compressor can be increased by the way of supplementing air, so that the air supplementing operation applied to the defrosting process and the heating operation in the above embodiment can jointly ensure the defrosting capacity of the reverse cycle defrosting mode, so that a better defrosting effect can be achieved when the air conditioner operates the reverse cycle defrosting mode.
Optionally, the air conditioner is provided with an air supplement branch, one end of the air supplement branch is communicated with an air supplement port of the compressor, and the other end of the air supplement branch is communicated with a gas-liquid separator arranged between the indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger; the air supply branch is provided with a control valve; therefore, the air supply operation performed on the compressor in step S101 can be performed by the air supply branch and the related accessories, and the air supply includes controlling at least a portion of the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation loop to flow back to the compressor through the air-liquid separator along the air supply branch.
S102, acquiring temperature attenuation parameters of an indoor environment or an indoor coil pipe;
in some optional embodiments, the temperature decay parameter of the indoor environment comprises a rate of temperature change of the indoor environment and the temperature decay parameter of the indoor coil comprises a rate of temperature change of the indoor coil.
In some optional embodiments of the present disclosure, the indoor unit of the air conditioner is provided with a temperature sensor, and the temperature sensor can be used for detecting the temperature of the indoor environment in which the indoor unit is located; therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the temperature change rate of the indoor environment is determined according to the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor.
Similarly, the indoor heat exchanger is provided with a temperature sensor at the coil pipe position, and the temperature sensor can be used for detecting the real-time temperature flowing through the coil pipe; therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the temperature data of the coil detected by the temperature sensor is determined to be the temperature change rate of the indoor coil.
S103, controlling the heating operation of the liquid inlet refrigerant of the gas-liquid separator and adjusting the refrigerant flow of the refrigerant circulation loop based on the indoor environment or the temperature attenuation parameter of the indoor coil pipe.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, by heating the liquid refrigerant of the gas-liquid separator, part of the liquid refrigerant which is heat-released and liquefied in the outdoor heat exchanger in the reverse cycle defrosting mode can absorb heat and vaporize again before flowing into the gas-liquid separator, so that the temperature and the flow of the gaseous refrigerant in the refrigerant which flows back to the compressor through the gas supplementing branch are changed; under the condition, the flow rate of the refrigerant which is divided to the air supply branch by the gas-liquid separator can be larger than or equal to the air supply flow rate through the heating operation of the liquid inlet refrigerant of the gas-liquid separator, so that the requirements for improving the compression performance of the compressor and the defrosting performance of the air conditioner are met.
In some embodiments, the air conditioner is provided with a heating device at the refrigerant liquid inlet pipeline of the gas-liquid separator in the reverse circulation defrosting mode, and the heating device is configured to controllably heat the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant liquid inlet pipeline; it is therefore controlled to turn on the heating operation of the heating device in step S103.
In one embodiment, the heating device is an electromagnetic heating device, which heats the refrigerant pipeline by using the principle of electromagnetic induction heating, and then conducts heat to the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant pipeline by using the refrigerant pipeline, so as to heat the refrigerant.
The electromagnetic heating device mainly comprises an induction coil and a power supply module, wherein the induction coil is wound on the refrigerant pipeline section, and the power supply module can provide alternating current for the induction coil; when the induction coil is electrified, alternating current flowing through the induction coil generates an alternating magnetic field passing through the refrigerant pipe section, and the alternating magnetic field can generate eddy currents in the refrigerant pipe section, so that the heating and warming effects can be realized by means of the energy of the eddy currents.
It should be understood that the type of the heating device for heating the refrigerant is not limited to the above electromagnetic heating device, and other types of heating devices capable of directly or indirectly heating the refrigerant in the related art may also apply the technical solution of the present application and are covered by the protection scope of the present application.
Optionally, a throttling device is disposed on the refrigerant circulation loop in the embodiment of the disclosure, and the throttling device may be used to control the adjustment of the refrigerant flow flowing through the refrigerant circulation loop. Therefore, in step S103, the flow opening of the throttling device is adjusted based on the temperature decay parameter of the indoor environment or the indoor coil.
Alternatively, the throttling device is an electronic expansion valve, or other valves with the same opening degree adjusting function.
In another alternative embodiment, for a refrigerant circulation loop using a capillary tube as a throttling device, since the capillary tube itself does not have a flow rate adjusting function, an electronic expansion valve may be added to the refrigerant circulation loop to adjust a flow rate opening degree of the refrigerant circulation loop through the electronic expansion valve.
The control method for defrosting of the air conditioner can control the heating operation of the liquid inlet refrigerant of the gas-liquid separator and the refrigerant flow of the refrigerant circulation loop according to the temperature attenuation parameter of the indoor environment or the indoor coil pipe when the compressor is supplied with air according to the reverse circulation defrosting mode of the air conditioner, not only can directly adjust the temperature and the flow of the refrigerant which becomes gaseous after being heated and is then divided out to be used for supplying air, but also can improve the temperature of the refrigerant flowing into the outdoor heat exchanger to improve the defrosting effect, thereby effectively reducing the problem that the defrosting capacity of the air conditioner is reduced along with the time caused by the reverse circulation defrosting mode.
In some optional embodiments, the controlling the heating operation of the liquid-in refrigerant of the gas-liquid separator and the adjusting the refrigerant flow rate of the refrigerant circulation loop based on the temperature decay parameter of the indoor environment or the indoor coil in step S103 includes: determining heating parameters of heating operation and adjusting values of refrigerant flow of refrigerant circulating reflux based on the temperature change rate of the indoor environment or the indoor coil pipe; controlling the heating operation according to the heating parameter, and controlling the adjusting operation according to the flow parameter.
Optionally, the heating parameter comprises heating rate or heating duration
Under the condition of controlling the heating operation according to the heating parameters, the flow of the refrigerant which is divided to the air supplementing branch by the gas-liquid separator is greater than or equal to the target air supplementing flow; here, the supplement air flow rate can be adjusted by controlling the heating operation so that the compression performance of the compressor can be improved, and thus the main role of the heating operation control means is to make the actual supplement air flow rate greater than or equal to the target supplement air flow rate.
In the case of controlling the adjusting operation according to the flow parameter, the coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is greater than or equal to a target coil temperature, or the temperature of the indoor environment is greater than or equal to a target indoor temperature. Here, the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing into the indoor heat exchanger can be adjusted by controlling the flow rate parameter, so that the main purpose is to ensure that the indoor environment does not fall too much or too fast in the defrosting process of the air conditioner, and the coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger can reflect the heat exchange efficiency between the indoor heat exchanger and the indoor environment, so that the coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is greater than or equal to the target coil temperature or the temperature of the indoor environment is greater than or equal to the target indoor temperature according to the main effect of adjusting the flow rate of the flow rate parameter.
In one embodiment, the air conditioner is preset with a corresponding relation between the temperature change rate of an indoor environment and the adjustment values of the heating parameters and the refrigerant flow; in another embodiment, the air conditioner is preset with a corresponding relationship between the temperature change rate of the indoor coil and the adjustment values of the heating parameters and the refrigerant flow.
In the corresponding relation, the temperature change rate of the indoor environment or the indoor coil pipe is in positive correlation with the heating parameter; wherein, the first ratio of the temperature decay parameter of the indoor environment to the corresponding heating parameter is smaller than the second ratio of the temperature decay parameter of the indoor coil to the corresponding heating parameter.
The temperature change rate of the indoor environment or the indoor coil pipe is in a negative correlation with the flow parameter; the first ratio of the temperature decay parameter of the indoor environment to the corresponding flow parameter is smaller than the second ratio of the temperature decay parameter of the indoor coil to the corresponding flow parameter.
Exemplarily, table 1 shows the corresponding relationship between the temperature change rate Δ Tao/t of an indoor environment and the adjustment values of the heating parameter and the refrigerant flow rate, as shown in the following table,
TABLE 1
Figure GDA0003243081450000071
Therefore, when the heating operation of the liquid-inlet refrigerant of the gas-liquid separator and the adjusting operation of the refrigerant flow of the refrigerant circulation circuit are controlled in step S103, the heating parameter and the flow rate parameter may be determined according to the corresponding relationship in the above embodiments, and then the control operation may be performed according to the heating parameter and the flow rate parameter.
In some optional embodiments, the control method for defrosting an air conditioner further comprises: and when the air conditioner runs in the reverse cycle defrosting mode, if the defrosting exit condition is met, controlling to exit the reverse cycle defrosting mode, and after the heating is continued for a set time, exiting the heating.
Here, when it is determined that the defrosting exit condition is satisfied, it indicates that the defrosting of the outdoor heat exchanger by the air conditioner is completed, and no frost or only a small amount of frost is formed on the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner, so that the reverse cycle defrosting mode is controlled to exit, so as to avoid that the normal heating function of the indoor environment by the air conditioner is affected due to too much time occupied by the reverse cycle defrosting mode.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the reverse cycle defrosting mode is exited, the air conditioner switches back to the heating mode again, and therefore the refrigerant flow directions in the refrigerant circulation circuit before and after switching are opposite, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the reverse cycle defrosting mode is exited, before the heating mode is switched back again, the heating is continuously maintained for a set time period, so that the refrigerant flowing in the flow direction defined by the reverse cycle defrosting mode can flow back to the compressor at a higher temperature before the mode switching, which not only can increase the temperature of the refrigerant for heating initially discharged by the compressor after the mode switching back to the heating mode, but also can effectively avoid the problems of pipeline vibration and the like caused by the collision of the flow directions of different refrigerants which are easy to occur when the two modes are switched.
In some alternative embodiments, the control unit may stop supplying air to the compressor when the air conditioner exits the reverse cycle defrosting mode.
In some alternative embodiments, the control may stop supplying air to the compressor when the set time is reached. In this way, the air conditioner can still keep the air replenishing operation on the compressor within the set time length so as to further improve the compression performance of the compressor when the heating mode is switched later.
