Detailed Description
< embodiment 1 >
The following describes the configuration of an air conditioning system 1 according to embodiment 1 of the present invention.
The air conditioning system 1 is a system including: when the humidity is low (less than 60%) during cooling operation and the temperature difference between the ambient temperature in the space and the set temperature of the air conditioner is 5 degrees or more, the operation is performed under control that does not cause a cold wind sensation, and when the humidity is high (60% or more) during heating operation and the temperature difference between the ambient temperature in the space and the set temperature of the air conditioner is 5 degrees or more, the operation in which it is difficult to feel warm wind is performed. As shown in fig. 1, the air conditioning system 1 includes an air conditioner 10 (air conditioner) and a control device 20.
As shown in fig. 2, the air conditioner 10 includes an up-down airflow direction changing mechanism 101 and a left-right airflow direction changing mechanism 102. The air conditioner 10 is, for example, a wall-mounted air conditioner.
The vertical airflow direction changing mechanism 101 is a mechanism that changes the direction of vertical airflow. The vertical airflow direction changing mechanism 101 is, for example, a vertical blade as shown in fig. 3.
The left-right airflow direction changing mechanism 102 is a mechanism that changes the direction of airflow in the left-right direction. The left-right airflow direction changing mechanism 102 is, for example, a left-right louver as shown in fig. 3.
As shown in fig. 4, the control device 20 includes an air flow control unit 201 and an air flow control unit 202 (an example of a control unit).
The air blowing control unit 201 determines the operation mode and the temperature set for the air conditioner 10. The air blowing control unit 201 controls the temperature or the air volume of the air flow output by the air conditioner 10 according to the determined operation mode and temperature. The operation mode set for the air conditioner 10 is a cooling operation or a heating operation. The temperature set for the air conditioner 10 is, for example, a temperature set by a remote controller of the air conditioner 10.
The airflow direction control unit 202 controls the direction of the airflow in the vertical direction of the vertical airflow direction changing mechanism 101. The airflow direction controller 202 controls the direction of the airflow in the left-right direction of the left-right airflow direction changing mechanism 102.
Specifically, the airflow direction control unit 202 controls the direction of the airflow by the up-down airflow direction changing mechanism 101 and the direction of the airflow by the left-right airflow direction changing mechanism 102 based on the temperature difference between the temperature set for the air conditioner 10 and the ambient temperature in the space.
The control of the wind direction by the wind direction control unit 202 will be described in more detail below. Here, an example of control of the wind direction by the wind direction control unit 202 is shown for each operation mode by condition.
When the operation mode is the cooling operation and the humidity is 60% or more, the sensible temperature of the person in the space does not differ much from the temperature set for the air conditioner 10. Therefore, the following wind direction control under condition 1, wind direction control under condition 2, and wind direction control under condition 3 are performed for each temperature difference between the temperature set for the air conditioner 10 and the ambient temperature in the space.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 1)
The condition 1 is set to a case where the operation mode is the cooling operation, the humidity is 60% or more, and the temperature difference is 5 degrees or more. When the condition 1 is satisfied, the wind direction controller 202 fixes the left and right louvers as the left and right wind direction changing means 102 in a direction in which the wind direction is directed forward. The wind direction controller 202 swings the vertical blades serving as the vertical wind direction changing mechanism 101 so as to blow upward by reducing the distance between the vertical blades.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 2)
The condition 2 is set to a case where the operation mode is the cooling operation, the humidity is 60% or more, the temperature difference is 2 degrees or more (an example of the 1 st temperature), and less than 5 degrees. When the condition 2 is satisfied, the wind direction controller 202 enlarges the interval between the upper and lower blades as the vertical wind direction changing mechanism 101. As the 1 st control, the wind direction control unit 202 swings the right and left louvers as the right and left wind direction changing means 102 in the right and left direction for 3 cycles (an example of the 1 st predetermined number of times). As the 2 nd control, the airflow direction controller 202 swings the upper and lower blades in a manner of swinging the blades upward for 5 cycles while fixing the left and right louvers in front (an example of the 2 nd predetermined number of times). As the 3 rd control, the wind direction control unit 202 fixes the left and right louvers to the front and operates the upper and lower blades in the horizontal blowing mode for the 1 st predetermined time. The wind direction control unit 202 sequentially repeats the 1 st control, the 2 nd control, and the 3 rd control. The wind direction control unit 202 shortens the 1 st predetermined time (for example, 5 minutes) which is the operation time in the 3 rd control every time the 1 st control, the 2 nd control, and the 3 rd control are sequentially repeated.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 3)
The case where the operation mode is the cooling operation, the humidity is 60% or more, and the temperature difference is less than 2 degrees is set as condition 3. When the condition 3 is satisfied, the airflow direction controller 202 fixes the left and right louvers to the front and operates the upper and lower blades in the horizontal blowing mode for the 1 st predetermined time.
When the operation mode is the cooling operation and the humidity is less than 60%, the sensible temperature of the person in the space is greatly different from the temperature set for the air conditioner 10. Therefore, the following wind direction control under condition 4, wind direction control under condition 5, and wind direction control under condition 6 are performed for each temperature difference between the temperature set for the air conditioner 10 and the ambient temperature in the space.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 4)
The case where the operation mode is the cooling operation, the humidity is less than 60%, and the temperature difference is 5 degrees or more is set as condition 4. When the condition of condition 4 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 performs the same control as the wind direction control under condition 2.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 5)
The condition 5 is set to a case where the operation mode is the cooling operation, the humidity is less than 60%, and the temperature difference is 2 degrees or more and less than 5 degrees. When the condition of condition 5 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 performs the same control as the wind direction control under condition 2.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 6)
The case where the operation mode is the cooling operation, the humidity is less than 60%, and the temperature difference is less than 2 degrees is set as the condition 6. When the condition of condition 6 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 performs the same control as the wind direction control under condition 3.
When the operation mode is heating operation and the humidity is less than 60%, the sensible temperature of the person in the space does not differ much from the temperature set for the air conditioner 10. Therefore, the following wind direction control under condition 7, wind direction control under condition 8, and wind direction control under condition 9 are performed for each temperature difference between the temperature set for the air conditioner 10 and the ambient temperature in the space.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 7)
The case where the operation mode is the heating operation, the humidity is less than 60%, and the temperature difference is 5 degrees or more is set as condition 7. When the condition of the condition 7 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 fixes the left and right louvers as the left and right wind direction changing means 102 in a direction in which the wind direction is directed forward. The wind direction controller 202 also swings the vertical blades of the vertical wind direction changing mechanism 101 so as to blow downward by reducing the distance between the vertical blades.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 8)
The condition 8 is set to a case where the operation mode is the heating operation, the humidity is less than 60%, and the temperature difference is 2 degrees or more (an example of the 2 nd temperature) and less than 5 degrees. When the condition of condition 8 is satisfied, the wind direction controller 202 enlarges the interval between the upper and lower blades as the vertical wind direction changing mechanism 101. As the 4 th control, the wind direction control unit 202 swings the right and left louvers as the right and left wind direction changing means 102 in the right and left direction for 3 cycles (an example of the 3 rd predetermined number of times). As the 5 th control, the wind direction control unit 202 swings the left and right louvers 5 cycles (an example of the 4 th predetermined number of times) while fixing the louvers in front and reducing the interval between the upper and lower blades to blow downward. As the 6 th control, the airflow direction controller 202 fixes the left and right louvers to the front and operates the upper and lower blades to blow downward for the 2 nd predetermined time. The wind direction control unit 202 sequentially repeats the 4 th control, the 5 th control, and the 6 th control. The wind direction control unit 202 shortens the 2 nd predetermined time (for example, 5 minutes) which is the operation time in the 6 th control every time the 4 th control, the 5 th control, and the 6 th control are sequentially repeated.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 9)
The case where the operation mode is the heating operation, the humidity is less than 60%, and the temperature difference is less than 2 degrees is set as the condition 9. When the condition of the condition 9 is satisfied, the airflow direction controller 202 fixes the left and right louvers to the front and operates the upper and lower blades to blow downward for the 2 nd predetermined time.
When the operation mode is the heating operation and the humidity is 60% or more, the sensible temperature of the person in the space is greatly different from the temperature set for the air conditioner 10. Therefore, the following wind direction control under condition 10, wind direction control under condition 11, and wind direction control under condition 12 are performed for each temperature difference between the temperature set for the air conditioner 10 and the ambient temperature in the space.
(wind direction control under condition 10)
The condition 4 is set to a case where the operation mode is the heating operation, the humidity is 60% or more, and the temperature difference is 5 degrees or more. When the condition of the condition 10 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 performs the same control as the wind direction control under the condition 8.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 11)
A case where the operation mode is the heating operation, the humidity is 60% or more, and the temperature difference is 2 degrees or more and less than 5 degrees is set as the condition 11. When the condition of the condition 11 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 performs the same control as the wind direction control under the condition 8.
(control of wind Direction under Condition 12)
The condition 12 is set to a case where the operation mode is the heating operation, the humidity is 60% or more, and the temperature difference is less than 2 degrees. When the condition of the condition 12 is satisfied, the wind direction control unit 202 performs the same control as the wind direction control under the condition 9.
