As shown in fig. 3, the control method of the air conditioner 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the steps of:
starting a high-temperature sterilization mode;
the air conditioner 100 is controlled to perform a heating operation, and at least one of the plurality of fans 3 is controlled not to be operated and at least one is controlled to be operated. That is, after the pasteurization mode is turned on, at least one fan 3 among the plurality of fans 3 is not operated, and at least one fan 3 is operated. Specifically, for example, as shown in fig. 2, there are two fans 3, and after the high-temperature sterilization mode is turned on, one of the two fans 3 is not operated, and the other fan 3 is operated. For another example, there are three fans 3, and after the pasteurization mode is started, two fans 3 of the three fans 3 are not operated and the other fan 3 is operated, or there are three fans 3, and after the pasteurization mode is started, two fans 3 of the three fans 3 are operated and the other fan 3 is not operated. Thus, after the sterilization mode is turned on, by controlling at least one of the plurality of fans 3 to be non-operational, thus, little or no air flow passes through the heat exchange portion 21 corresponding to the inoperative fan 3, so that the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange portion 21 is low, the heat exchanging part 21 has a higher temperature, thereby contributing to securing the sterilizing effect, while at the same time by controlling at least one of the plurality of fans 3 to be operated, the fan 3 thus operated can drive the air flow to a greater extent or completely to the heat exchange portion 21 corresponding to the fan 3 thus operated, therefore, the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange part 21 corresponding to the working fan 3 is high, the temperature of the heat exchange part 21 corresponding to the working fan 3 is low, the increase of system pressure is avoided, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the running reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
According to the control method of the air conditioner 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, after the sterilization mode is turned on, by controlling at least one of the plurality of fans 3 to be inactive, so that little or no airflow flows through the heat exchanging part 21 corresponding to the inactive fan 3, the heat exchanging efficiency of the heat exchanging part 21 is low, and the temperature of the heat exchanging part 21 is high, thereby facilitating to ensure the sterilization effect, and at the same time, by controlling at least one of the plurality of fans 3 to be active, the fan 3 that is active in this way can drive the airflow to flow to the heat exchanging part 21 corresponding to the active fan 3 to a greater extent or completely, so that the heat exchanging efficiency of the heat exchanging part 21 corresponding to the active fan 3 is high, so the temperature of the heat exchanging part 21 corresponding to the active fan 3 is low, thereby avoiding the increase of the system pressure, and avoiding the air conditioner 100 generating high temperature and high pressure, the reliability of the operation of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the housing 1 has a plurality of indoor vents, and the plurality of indoor vents and the plurality of fans 3 correspond one to one. As shown in fig. 3, while at least one of the fans 3 is controlled to be not operated and at least one of the fans is controlled to be operated, the indoor vents corresponding to the fans 3 that are not operated are controlled to be closed, and the indoor vents corresponding to the fans 3 that are operated are controlled to be opened. Specifically, the air guide part is arranged at the indoor vent, and the indoor vent corresponding to the fan 3 which does not work is closed and the indoor vent corresponding to the fan 3 which works is opened by controlling the movement of the air guide part. Therefore, after the sterilization mode is started, little or no airflow flows through the heat exchange part 21 corresponding to the fan 3 which does not work, so that the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange part 21 is low, the temperature of the heat exchange part 21 is higher, thereby being beneficial to ensuring the sterilization effect, meanwhile, the fan 3 which works can drive the airflow to enter the shell 1 from the corresponding indoor ventilation opening and flow to the heat exchange part 21 corresponding to the fan 3 which works to a greater extent or completely, so that the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange part 21 corresponding to the fan 3 which works is higher, the temperature of the heat exchange part 21 corresponding to the fan 3 which works is lower, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the operation reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.

It can be understood here that, when there are a plurality of operating fans 3, there are a plurality of heat exchange portions 21 corresponding to the operating fans 3, each heat exchange portion 21 corresponding to the operating fan 3 has a heat exchange temperature Th, and the shutdown of the compressor 201 is controlled if only one of the heat exchange temperatures Th is greater than or equal to the second preset shutdown protection temperature T2. Therefore, the high-temperature sterilization effect can be ensured, the normal operation of the air conditioner 100 can be ensured without damage, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the operation reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
According to some specific examples of the present invention, the compressor 201 is controlled to be down-converted if the discharge temperature Tp of the compressor 201 is equal to or greater than the first preset down-conversion temperature T11 or the heat exchange temperature Th of the heat exchange portion 21 is equal to or greater than the second preset down-conversion temperature T22, wherein T11 is less than T1 and T22 is less than T2, that is, the compressor 201 is controlled to be down-converted if the discharge temperature Tp of the compressor 201 is equal to or greater than the first preset down-conversion temperature T11 and less than T1 or the heat exchange temperature Th of the heat exchange portion 21 corresponding to the operating fan 3 is equal to or greater than the second preset down-conversion temperature T22 and less than T2. Therefore, the high-temperature sterilization effect can be ensured, the normal operation of the air conditioner 100 can be ensured without damage, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the operation reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
In some examples of the present invention, the difference between T1 and T11 is: 1 ℃ to 3 ℃, e.g., 2 ℃ difference between T1 and T11. Therefore, the normal operation of the air conditioner 100 is ensured without damage, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the operation reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
In some examples of the present invention, the difference between T2 and T22 is: 1-3 ℃. For example, the difference between T2 and T22 is 2 ℃. Therefore, the normal operation of the air conditioner 100 is ensured without damage, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the operation reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first predetermined down-conversion temperature T11 has a value range of: 103-112 ℃. Specifically, the value range of T11 is 108-112 ℃. For example, T11 takes the values 109 ℃ and 110 ℃. Therefore, the normal operation of the air conditioner 100 is ensured without damage, the air conditioner 100 is prevented from generating high temperature and high pressure, and the operation reliability of the air conditioner 100 is improved.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the second predetermined down-conversion temperature T22 has a value range of: 53 ℃ to 63 ℃. Specifically, the value range of T22 is 56-62 ℃.
