Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
The air conditioner 100 in the present application performs a refrigeration cycle of the air conditioner 100 by using the compressor 1, the condenser, the expansion valve, and the evaporator. The refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and supplies refrigerant to the air that has been conditioned and heat-exchanged.
The compressor 1 compresses a refrigerant gas in a high-temperature and high-pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
The expansion valve expands the liquid-phase refrigerant in a high-temperature and high-pressure state condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve, and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor 1. The evaporator can achieve a cooling effect by heat-exchanging with a material to be cooled using latent heat of evaporation of a refrigerant. The air conditioner 100 can adjust the temperature of the indoor space throughout the cycle.
The outdoor unit of the air conditioner 100 refers to a portion of the refrigeration cycle including the compressor 1 and the outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of the air conditioner 100 includes the indoor heat exchanger, and the expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.
The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger serve as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the air conditioner 100 is used as a heater for a heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the air conditioner 100 is used as a cooler for a cooling mode.
An air conditioner control method according to an embodiment of a first aspect of the present invention is described below with reference to fig. 1 to 5.
As shown in fig. 1, an air conditioner control method according to an embodiment of a first aspect of the present invention includes the steps of:
when the defrosting condition is satisfied, the compressor 1 is controlled to be upscaled to a predetermined defrosting frequency.
In the above steps, the compressor 1 is controlled to increase frequency before the defrosting mode is operated, so that the pressure and flow of the air conditioner can be increased, the temperature of the refrigerant can be increased, and the frost layer can be rapidly melted, thereby reducing the fluctuation of the indoor temperature, realizing the continuous heat supply of the air conditioner 100, and ensuring that the user has higher use comfort.
And operating the defrosting mode, and turning off the outdoor fan.
When the defrosting mode is operated, the compressor 1 does not need to be stopped, and hot air is still blown indoors, so that the room comfort is improved, the heating capacity single period can be greatly improved (for example, the heating capacity can be improved by over 400W), the indoor unit can continuously blow out hot air when the air conditioner operates in the heating mode, and the comfort is improved.
According to the air conditioner control method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the compressor 1 is controlled to be increased to the preset defrosting frequency in advance when the defrosting condition is met, so that the pressure and the flow of the air conditioner can be improved, the temperature of a refrigerant is increased, the fluctuation of the indoor temperature during defrosting can be reduced, continuous heat supply is realized, and the use comfort of a user is improved.
In some embodiments of the present invention, in conjunction with fig. 5, the compressor 1 passes a first predetermined time t before operating the defrost mode1Raising the frequency to a predetermined defrosting frequency, wherein t1Satisfies the following conditions: t is not more than 120s1Less than or equal to 240 s. Specifically, for example, when t1When the time is less than 120s, the first preset time is too short, and the pressure and the flow of the air conditioner can not be effectively improved, so that the defrosting time is longer, and the defrosting effect is poorer; when t is1The first predetermined time is too long (> 240 s), which may result in excessive pressure loss by the air conditioner. Thereby, the first predetermined time t is set1Satisfies the following conditions: t is not more than 120s1The time is less than or equal to 240s, the defrosting can be rapidly realized, the defrosting time is less than two minutes, and the excessive pressure loss of the air conditioner can be avoided. Wherein, t1May be 180 s.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, when the defrosting mode is operated, the indoor fan is controlled to operate at a low rotation speed. For example, the indoor fan of the air conditioner 100 may include three gears, i.e., a high speed, a medium speed, and a low speed, and when the indoor fan operates at a low speed, the corresponding rotation speeds of the air conditioners 100 of different models and sizes may be different. For example, the rotational speed of the air conditioner 100 of a smaller size is correspondingly smaller. From this, because when air conditioner 100 operation defrosting mode, the air-out temperature of air conditioner 100 is lower relatively, through the operation of control room fan low-speed, can avoid the indoor temperature to fluctuate too greatly when guaranteeing that air conditioner 100 continuously heats to can guarantee that the user has higher use travelling comfort.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the,
referring to fig. 2, when the defrosting exit condition is satisfied, the outdoor fan is turned on, and the compressor 1 is controlled to continue to operate at the predetermined defrosting frequency for a second predetermined time;
and exiting the defrosting mode.
Therefore, the compressor 1 is controlled to continuously run for the second preset time at the preset defrosting frequency when the defrosting exit condition is met, the exhaust temperature and the heat can be quickly increased, the pressure loss of the air conditioner and the reduction of the exhaust temperature during defrosting are compensated, the heating capacity is quickly increased, the heat loss before and after defrosting is reduced, and the use comfort of a user can be further improved.
And further, when the defrosting exit condition is met, controlling the indoor fan to operate at a high rotating speed. So set up, can improve indoor temperature because of changing the frost and losing rapidly to avoid indoor temperature fluctuation too big, guarantee user's travelling comfort.
In some alternative embodiments of the present invention, in conjunction with FIG. 5, the second predetermined time is t2Wherein, t2Satisfies the following conditions: t is not more than 120s2Less than or equal to 240 s. E.g. t2May be 180 s. When t is2When the time is less than 120s, the second preset time is too short, the exhaust temperature and the heat can not be effectively increased, so that the indoor temperature cannot be rapidly increased, the indoor temperature fluctuation is too large, and the user experience is poor; when t is2The second predetermined time is too long > 240s, which may result in excessive power consumption of the air conditioner 100. Thereby, the second predetermined time t is set2Satisfies the following conditions: t is not more than 120s2Less than or equal to 240s, and can reduce the energy consumption of the air conditioner 100 while ensuring that the indoor temperature can be quickly raised.
In some embodiments of the present invention, when the defrost mode is exited, the compressor 1 is down-cycled to normal heating frequency operation. With such an arrangement, the normal heating of the air conditioner 100 can be ensured, and simultaneously, the energy consumption of the air conditioner 100 can be reduced.
