As can be understood by those skilled in the art, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner includes a compressor, a throttling element, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan, an indoor heat exchanger, and an indoor fan, the outdoor fan is a dc fan, and the heat storage control method includes: acquiring a preset starting time of the air conditioner; correcting the preset starting-up time based on the time correction parameter; calculating the heat storage starting time of the air conditioner based on the corrected preset starting time and the preset heat storage time; when the heat accumulation starting moment is reached, acquiring the outdoor environment temperature; determining the heat storage frequency of a compressor and the heat storage rotating speed of an outdoor fan based on the outdoor environment temperature; controlling the compressor to operate at the heat storage frequency; and controlling the outdoor fan to operate at the heat accumulation rotating speed at the same time, before or after the compressor starts to operate.
Through the control mode, the heat storage control method can prolong the service life of the compressor, greatly improve the control precision of the heat storage process of the air conditioner and improve the user experience. Specifically, the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan are determined based on the outdoor environment temperature, then the compressor is controlled to operate based on the heat storage frequency, and the operation of the external fan is controlled based on the heat storage rotating speed, so that the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage rotating speed of the external fan can be adjusted based on the outdoor environment temperature, the heat storage frequency and the heat storage rotating speed are matched with the outdoor environment temperature, and the control precision of the air conditioner in the heat storage stage is improved. And the compressor and the outdoor fan are respectively controlled to operate based on the heat storage frequency and the heat storage rotating speed determined by the outdoor environment temperature, and the temperature of the coil pipe can be always in a better temperature range.
By correcting the preset starting-up time based on the time correction parameter, the control method can correct the preset starting-up time based on the starting-up habit of the user, so that the corrected preset starting-up time is closer to the real starting-up time of the user, the air conditioner is subjected to heat storage based on the corrected preset starting-up time, energy waste caused by insufficient heat storage time or overlong heat storage time can be avoided, accurate and personalized treatment for a single user is achieved, and user experience is improved.
Further, through the in-process at the compressor with the operation of heat accumulation frequency, detect indoor heat exchanger's coil pipe temperature, and the operating frequency of adjustment compressor and/or the rotational speed of outdoor fan based on the comparison result of coil pipe temperature and first preset coil pipe temperature, make air conditioner compressor and outdoor fan keep the operation throughout in the heat accumulation phase, just also guaranteed that the coil pipe temperature is in a comparatively stable temperature interval all the time, and through the frequency of adjustment compressor and the rotational speed of outdoor fan, then can keep the coil pipe temperature in comparatively stable state, avoid the problem of the life-span reduction that brings because the compressor frequently starts and stops, and because the compressor frequently starts and stops makes the fluctuation of coil pipe temperature great and the poor problem of user experience that brings.
It should be noted that, when the air conditioner operates in the heat storage mode, the compressor is designed to operate intermittently, so that the compressor has a rest time and saves power, but through years of research and tests of the inventor, when the compressor is repeatedly started, the compressor is more easily damaged due to large fluctuation of various parameters when the compressor starts to operate, and more electric energy is wasted. When the compressor operates in the heat storage mode, the heat storage frequency required by the compressor is extremely low, so that the power consumption of the compressor during the operation is extremely low, and the long-term use of the compressor is more facilitated. Therefore, the control method can enable the compressor to run more stably, the service life is longer, the fluctuation of the temperature of the coil pipe is smaller, and the heat storage effect is better.
Further, when the temperature of the coil pipe rises to be higher than the first preset coil pipe temperature, the compressor is controlled to reduce the first preset frequency, and the outdoor fan is controlled to reduce the first preset rotating speed, so that the pressure of the air conditioning system is reduced.
Further, when the temperature of the coil pipe is reduced to be less than or equal to the second preset coil pipe temperature, the compressor is controlled to increase the second preset frequency, the outdoor fan is controlled to increase the second preset rotating speed, the system pressure can be increased, the temperature of the coil pipe is further increased, and the coil pipe temperature is guaranteed to be always in a better interval.
Furthermore, the control method can also realize the combined control of the compressor, the external fan and the throttling element by determining the heat storage opening of the throttling element to be matched with the outdoor environment temperature based on the outdoor environment temperature, thereby further improving the working efficiency of the compressor, and reducing the energy consumption of the compressor and the control precision of the air conditioner in the heat storage stage.
Furthermore, by carrying out statistical calculation on the historical preset starting-up time and the historical actual starting-up time within the set number of days, calculating a first difference value between the average value of the preset starting-up time and the average value of the historical actual starting-up time within the set number of days, and taking the first difference value as a time correction parameter, the control method can calculate and determine the time correction parameter by using the use habit of the user on the air conditioner in the latest period of time, so that the preset starting-up time corrected by the time correction parameter is closer to the real starting-up time of the user in the latest period of time.

Detailed Description
Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only for explaining the technical principle of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. For example, although the present embodiment has been described with an example in which the opening degree of the throttling element is adjusted while the compressor starts operating and the outdoor fan is turned on, a person skilled in the art may adjust the control sequence of the compressor, the throttling element and the fan without departing from the principle of the present invention. For example, the throttling element can be controlled to adjust the opening degree and the outdoor fan can be controlled to operate before or after the compressor is started.
Example 1
First, referring to fig. 1 and 2, a heat absorption control method of an air conditioner according to the present invention will be described. Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a heat storage control method of an air conditioner according to a first embodiment of the present invention; fig. 2 is a logic diagram of a heat storage control method of an air conditioner in a first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, in order to solve the problems of low control precision and poor user experience in the prior preheating scheme, the air conditioner of the present invention includes a compressor, a throttling element, an outdoor heat exchanger, an outdoor fan, an indoor heat exchanger, and an indoor fan, wherein the compressor is a variable frequency compressor, and the outdoor fan is a direct current fan. The main steps of the heat storage control method of the air conditioner comprise:
s101, acquiring outdoor environment temperature; for example, the outdoor environment temperature is detected by providing a temperature sensor in the outdoor unit.
S102, determining the heat storage frequency of a compressor, the heat storage rotating speed of an outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of a throttling element based on the outdoor environment temperature; the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element are determined based on the corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element respectively. The corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be a comparison table which is determined based on a heat storage test and is stored in the air conditioner, and the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be determined based on the outdoor environment temperature by using the comparison table. The corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element is similar to that of the compressor, and the description is omitted. Of course, in addition to determining the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotation speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element by using the comparison table, the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotation speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element can also be determined by adopting a method of obtaining a fitting formula through a plurality of tests.
S103, controlling the compressor to operate at a heat storage frequency, such as controlling the compressor to operate at a certain frequency lower than a rated working frequency, for example, the heat storage frequency is 50Hz, and controlling the compressor to operate at 50Hz when the air conditioner stores heat;
and S104, adjusting the throttle element to the heat storage opening degree when the compressor starts to operate, wherein if the throttle element is an electronic expansion valve and the heat storage opening degree is 400P (P: opening unit step), the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted to 400P when the compressor starts to operate. Naturally, the adjustment timing of the throttle element can also be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the throttle element is correspondingly opened when the compressor is operating.
S105, controlling the outdoor fan to operate at a heat storage rotating speed while the compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is a direct current fan, the heat storage rotating speed of the direct current fan is 1000r/min, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be started and operated at the rotating speed of 1000r/min while the compressor starts to operate. Of course, the starting time of the outdoor fan may be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the outdoor fan is correspondingly started to operate when the compressor operates.
Through the control mode, the heat storage control method can prolong the service life of the compressor, greatly improve the control precision of the heat storage process of the air conditioner and improve the user experience. Specifically, the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan are determined based on the outdoor environment temperature, then the compressor is controlled to operate based on the heat storage frequency, and the operation of the external fan is controlled based on the heat storage rotating speed, so that the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage rotating speed of the external fan can be adjusted based on the outdoor environment temperature, the heat storage frequency and the heat storage rotating speed are matched with the outdoor environment temperature, and the control precision of the air conditioner in the heat storage stage is improved. And the compressor and the outdoor fan are respectively controlled to operate based on the heat storage frequency and the heat storage rotating speed determined by the outdoor environment temperature, and the temperature of the coil pipe can be always in a better temperature range. By determining the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element to be matched with the outdoor environment temperature based on the outdoor environment temperature, the control method can also realize the combined control of the compressor, the external fan and the throttling element, thereby further improving the working efficiency of the compressor, and reducing the energy consumption of the compressor and the control precision of the air conditioner in the heat storage stage.
The heat storage control method of the air conditioner of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to fig. 1 and 2.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, in a preferred embodiment, the step of determining the heat accumulation frequency of the compressor and the heat accumulation rotation speed of the outdoor fan based on the outdoor ambient temperature may further include:
when the outdoor environment temperature is less than or equal to a first preset environment temperature, determining that the heat storage frequency of the compressor is a first heat storage frequency, and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan is a first heat storage rotating speed; when the outdoor environment temperature is higher than the first preset environment temperature and lower than or equal to the second preset environment temperature, determining that the heat storage frequency of the compressor is a second heat storage frequency, and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan is a second heat storage rotating speed; when the outdoor environment temperature is higher than the second preset environment temperature, determining that the heat storage frequency of the compressor is a third heat storage frequency, and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan is a third heat storage rotating speed; the first heat storage frequency is greater than the second heat storage frequency, and the second heat storage frequency is greater than the third heat storage frequency; the first heat storage rotating speed is greater than the second heat storage rotating speed, and the second heat storage rotating speed is greater than the third heat storage rotating speed.
For example, the first heat storage frequency may be 55Hz, the second heat storage frequency may be 45Hz, the third heat storage frequency may be 35Hz, the first heat storage rotation speed may be 1000r/min, the second heat storage rotation speed may be 800r/min, the third heat storage rotation speed may be 600r/min, the first preset environment temperature may be-5 ℃ and the second preset environment temperature may be 5 ℃. When the outdoor environment temperature is lower than-5 ℃, the outdoor environment temperature is lower, the temperature of the coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger can be ensured to be increased to a better temperature within a certain heat storage time only by operating the compressor at a higher frequency and operating the outdoor fan at a higher rotating speed, so that the first heat storage frequency is set to be 55Hz, and the first heat storage rotating speed is set to be 1000r/min, the system pressure can be correspondingly increased, and the temperature of the coil pipe can be ensured to be rapidly increased within the heat storage time. When the outdoor environment temperature is between-5 ℃ and 5 ℃, the outdoor environment temperature is increased to a certain extent compared with-5 ℃, so that the working frequency of the compressor and the working rotating speed of the outdoor fan do not need to be high under the same heat storage time condition, and the temperature of the coil pipe can be increased to a better area. Thus, the second heat storage frequency may be set to 45Hz and the second heat storage rotation speed may be set to 800 r/min. When the outdoor environment temperature is higher than 5 ℃, the compressor works at a lower frequency to increase the temperature of the coil pipe to a proper temperature within the same heat storage time. Therefore, the third heat storage frequency can be further set to be 35Hz, and the third heat storage rotating speed is set to be 600r/min, so that the system pressure is reduced, and the reasonable rise of the temperature of the coil pipe in the heat storage time is ensured.
Further, in a preferred embodiment, the step of determining the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element based on the outdoor ambient temperature may further include:
when the outdoor environment temperature is less than or equal to a first preset environment temperature, determining the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element as a first heat storage opening degree; when the outdoor environment temperature is higher than the first preset environment temperature and lower than or equal to the second preset environment temperature, determining the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element as a second heat storage opening degree; when the outdoor environment temperature is higher than the second preset environment temperature, determining the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element as a third heat storage opening degree; wherein the first heat storage opening degree is smaller than the second heat storage opening degree, which is smaller than the third heat storage opening degree.
For example, the first heat storage opening degree may be 400P, the second heat storage opening degree may be 300P, the third heat storage opening degree may be 200P, the first preset ambient temperature may be-5 ℃ as well, and the second preset ambient temperature may be 5 ℃ as well. When the outdoor environment temperature is lower than-5 ℃, the outdoor environment temperature is lower, and the temperature of the coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger can be ensured to quickly rise in the heat storage time only by the aid of large refrigerant flow, so that the first heat storage opening is set to 400P, the refrigerant flow in the heat storage time can be ensured to be large, the phase change speed of the refrigerant is increased, and the temperature of the coil pipe is quickly increased. When the outdoor environment temperature is between-5 ℃ and 5 ℃, the outdoor environment temperature is increased to a certain extent compared with-5 ℃, so that the required refrigerant quantity is not required to be large under the condition of the same heat storage time, and the temperature of the coil pipe can be ensured to be increased to a better area. Thereby, the second heat storage opening degree may be set to 300P. When the outdoor environment temperature is higher than 5 ℃, the outdoor environment temperature is higher, and the throttling element can raise the temperature of the coil pipe to a proper temperature by using a limited refrigerant quantity within the same heat storage time when the opening degree is very small. Therefore, the third heat storage opening degree may be further set to 200P.
Further, in a preferred embodiment, the heat storage control method further includes:
detecting the temperature of a coil pipe of an indoor heat exchanger in the process that a compressor runs at a heat storage frequency; judging the temperature of the coil and the temperature of a first preset coil; and selectively adjusting the rotating speed of the outdoor fan and/or the running frequency of the compressor based on the judgment result. Specifically, when the temperature of the coil pipe is greater than a first preset coil pipe temperature, the compressor is controlled to reduce a first preset frequency, and the outdoor fan is controlled to reduce a first preset rotating speed; and when the temperature of the coil is less than or equal to the first preset temperature of the coil, controlling the compressor to keep the heat storage frequency to operate, and controlling the outdoor fan to keep the heat storage rotating speed to operate. For example, the first preset coil temperature may be 42 ℃, the first preset frequency may be 5Hz, and the first preset rotation speed may be 100r/min, so that when the air conditioner is storing heat, the coil temperature is controlled to about 42 ℃ to ensure that hot air is discharged when the air conditioner is started. After operating in the regenerative mode for a period of time, when the coil temperature is greater than 42 ℃, it is proved that the coil temperature has exceeded the preferred temperature, and the rate of temperature rise of the coil needs to be slowed. At the moment, the frequency of the compressor is reduced by 5Hz, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be reduced by 100r/min, so that the pressure of the system is reduced, the phase change process of the refrigerant is weakened, and the temperature rising speed of the coil is slowed, maintained and even reduced. When the temperature of the coil is less than 42 ℃, the coil temperature is proved to be still low, and the rapid temperature rise is still needed. At the moment, the compressor is kept to operate at the heat storage frequency, and the outdoor fan is controlled to keep operating at the heat storage rotating speed, so that the temperature rise speed of the coil pipe temperature can be guaranteed, and the temperature of the coil pipe can continuously rise.
Further, after the steps of "controlling the compressor to reduce the first preset frequency and controlling the outdoor fan to reduce the first preset rotating speed" when the coil is higher than 42 ℃, the heat accumulation control method further comprises the following steps:
detecting the temperature of the coil; judging the temperature of the coil pipe, the first preset coil pipe temperature and the second preset coil pipe temperature; based on the comparison result, the rotation speed of the outdoor fan and/or the operation frequency of the compressor are/is selectively adjusted. When the temperature of the coil is less than or equal to a second preset coil temperature, controlling the compressor to increase a second preset frequency, and controlling the outdoor fan to increase a second preset rotating speed; when the temperature of the coil is less than or equal to the first preset coil temperature and greater than the second preset coil temperature, controlling the compressor to keep reducing the first preset frequency for operation, and controlling the outdoor fan to keep reducing the first preset rotating speed for operation; wherein the first preset coil temperature is greater than the second preset coil temperature. For example, the second predetermined coil temperature may be 35 ℃, the second predetermined frequency may be 5Hz, and the second predetermined rotational speed may be 100 r/min. When the coil temperature is less than 35 ℃, it is proved that the coil temperature has dropped to a lower temperature, and the temperature rise rate needs to be raised immediately. At the moment, the frequency of the compressor is increased by 5Hz, and the rotating speed of the outdoor fan is controlled to be increased by 100r/min, so that the pressure of the system is increased, the phase change process of the refrigerant is enhanced, and the temperature of the coil pipe begins to rise to some extent. When the temperature of the coil is more than 35 ℃ and less than 42 ℃, the coil temperature is still high, and rapid cooling is still required. At the moment, the compressor is kept running in a state of reducing the first preset frequency, and the outdoor fan is controlled to keep reducing the first preset rotating speed to run, so that the temperature rise speed of the coil temperature can be reduced.
When the temperature of the coil pipe rises to be higher than the first preset coil pipe temperature, the compressor is controlled to reduce the first preset frequency, and the outdoor fan is controlled to reduce the first preset rotating speed, so that the pressure of the air conditioning system is reduced. When the temperature of the coil pipe is reduced to be less than or equal to the second preset coil pipe temperature, the compressor is controlled to increase the second preset frequency, the outdoor fan is controlled to increase the second preset rotating speed, the system pressure can be increased, the temperature of the coil pipe is further increased, and the temperature of the coil pipe is guaranteed to be always in a better interval. Because the direct current fan realizes the frequency conversion comparatively easily, and the direct current fan that can the frequency conversion cost is lower, the effect is preferred and use extensively moreover, therefore this control method adopts the mode of control direct current fan rotational speed to realize the accurate control of coil pipe temperature.

Example 2
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a heat storage control method of an air conditioner according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 3, in one possible embodiment, the main steps of the heat storage control method of the air conditioner include:
s201, acquiring a preset starting time of the air conditioner; the preset starting time in this embodiment may be a starting time actively set by a user, or a starting time statistically obtained based on a historical starting time of the air conditioner. For example, the preset starting time may be a starting time set by a user through a remote controller, a mobile phone APP, or a starting time obtained by counting the historical actual starting time of the air conditioner by a controller or a cloud server of the air conditioner, for example, an average value of the historical actual starting time obtained by counting the historical actual starting time of the air conditioner by using statistical methods, probability theory calculation, and the like, and the average value is used as the preset starting time of the air conditioner. The following explains the control method by taking the cloud server as an example to perform statistical calculation.
S202, correcting the preset starting-up time based on the time correction parameter; the time correction parameter is used to represent a corresponding relationship between the preset startup time and the actual startup time, that is, a deviation between the preset startup time and the actual startup time, which is set or calculated by a user. After the preset starting time is set by a user or calculated by the air conditioner, the starting time is corrected based on the time correction parameter, and if the preset starting time is corrected by increasing or decreasing a time period on the basis of the determined preset starting time, the corrected preset starting time can be closer to the real starting time of the user. For example, if the preset power-on time is 18:00 and the time correction parameter is +10min, the corrected preset power-on time is 18:00+10min, which is 18: 10.
S203, calculating the heat storage starting time of the air conditioner based on the corrected preset starting time and the preset heat storage time; after the preset startup time is modified, the startup time of the heat storage mode may be determined based on the heat storage time. For example, if the preset heat accumulation time of the air conditioner is 5min, the heat accumulation starting time is 18:05 when the preset startup time is 18: 10.
S204, when the heat accumulation starting moment is reached, determining the heat accumulation frequency of the compressor, the heat accumulation rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat accumulation opening degree of the throttling element based on the outdoor environment temperature; the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element are determined based on the corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element respectively. The corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be a comparison table which is determined based on a heat storage test and is stored in the air conditioner, and the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be determined based on the outdoor environment temperature by using the comparison table. The corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element is similar to that of the compressor, and the description is omitted. Of course, in addition to determining the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotation speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element by using the comparison table, the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotation speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element can also be determined by adopting a method of obtaining a fitting formula through a plurality of tests.
S205, controlling the compressor to operate at a heat storage frequency; if the compressor is controlled to operate at a certain frequency lower than the rated working frequency, for example, the heat storage frequency is 50Hz, and when the air conditioner stores heat, the compressor is controlled to operate at 50 Hz.
S206, adjusting the throttle element to the heat storage opening degree when the compressor starts to operate, wherein if the throttle element is an electronic expansion valve and the heat storage opening degree is 400P (P: opening unit step), the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted to 400P when the compressor starts to operate. Naturally, the adjustment timing of the throttle element can also be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the throttle element is correspondingly opened when the compressor is operating.
S207, controlling the outdoor fan to operate at a heat storage rotating speed while the compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is a direct current fan, the heat storage rotating speed of the direct current fan is 1000r/min, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be started and operated at the rotating speed of 1000r/min while the compressor starts to operate. Of course, the starting time of the outdoor fan may be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the outdoor fan is correspondingly started to operate when the compressor operates.
As can be seen from the above description, on the basis of embodiment 1, by correcting the preset startup time based on the time correction parameter, the control method of the present invention can correct the preset startup time based on the startup habit of the user, so that the corrected preset startup time is closer to the real startup time of the user, and the air conditioner is subjected to heat storage based on the corrected preset startup time, thereby avoiding energy waste caused by insufficient heat storage time or excessively long heat storage time, achieving accurate and personalized treatment for a single user, and improving user experience.
Since steps S204 to S207 are the same as or similar to embodiment 1, they are not described again. The following focuses on steps S201 to S203.
In a preferred embodiment, the time correction parameter is determined during the last operation of the air conditioner. Specifically, when the air conditioner receives a startup instruction and operates last time, if the air conditioner receives the startup instruction and operates in a heating mode in the same time period of the previous day or the same time period of the previous days, the current actual startup time is recorded first, then the historical preset startup time and the historical actual startup time in the set days before (including this time) this time are counted, and the average value of the historical preset startup time and the average value of the historical actual startup time in the set days are calculated respectively. And then calculating a first difference value between the average value of the historical actual starting-up time and the average value of the historical preset starting-up time, and storing the first difference value as a time correction parameter for the next correction of the preset starting-up time.
For example, the cloud server counts historical preset starting-up time and historical actual starting-up time of the air conditioner in the same period (for example, 18:00-19:00) of the last 7 days including this time, and calculates a mean value of all historical preset starting-up time and a mean value of all historical actual starting-up time, if the mean value of all historical preset starting-up time is calculated to be 18:30 and the mean value of all historical actual starting-up time is calculated to be 18:40, then the first difference is equal to 18:40-18:30 being 10min, that is, the time correction parameter is 10min, that is, in the last 7 days, the actual starting-up time of the user is 10min later than the preset starting-up time on average. Therefore, when the preset starting-up time is estimated next time, the sum of the estimated preset starting-up time and the time correction parameter is calculated to serve as the corrected preset starting-up time, so that the estimation accuracy of the preset starting-up time is improved, the calculation accuracy of the heat storage starting time of the heat storage mode is further improved, the energy waste is reduced, and the user experience is improved. Of course, the time correction parameter in the above example is described as a positive number, and the same holds true for the present control method if the time correction parameter obtained is a negative number. If the time correction parameter is-10 min, the actual starting time of the user in the past 7 days is 10min earlier than the preset starting time on average, and therefore when the preset starting time is estimated next time, the estimation accuracy of the preset starting time can be improved by calculating the sum of the preset starting time and the time correction parameter, namely subtracting 10min from the preset starting time to serve as the corrected preset starting time.
Similarly, when the power-on operation is in the heating mode, a new time correction parameter can be obtained by recording the preset power-on time and the current actual power-on time and combining the data 7 days before the power-on, so that the preset power-on time can be corrected for use next time. That is to say, each time the air conditioner receives a starting command to perform heating operation, the time correction parameters are calculated and adjusted based on the obtained current actual starting time and the data in the past set days.
In a more preferred embodiment, before adjusting the time correction parameter, it may be determined that the time correction parameter is not to be adjusted based on a comparison result between a second difference between the current actual startup time of the current startup and the current preset startup time and a preset threshold. Specifically, when a starting-up instruction is received, the current actual starting-up time is recorded; calculating a second difference value between the current actual starting-up time and the current preset starting-up time; judging the size of the second difference value and a preset threshold value; when the second difference is smaller than the preset threshold value, adjusting the time correction parameter; otherwise, the time correction parameter is not adjusted, and the last time correction parameter is used.
For example, the preset threshold may be 20min, and when the air conditioner receives a start-up instruction and performs heating operation this time, the current actual start-up time is recorded to be 17:00, the preset start-up time is 18:00, a difference value between the two is 60min, and the difference value is far greater than the preset threshold of 20min, which indicates that the actual start-up time of the user at this time belongs to a special situation, and the user may return home in advance due to a leave or other reasons, so that the current actual start-up time at this time is not suitable for adjusting the time correction parameter, so as to prevent the situation that the time correction parameter adjusted based on the actual start-up time at this time deviates from the actual habit of the user. On the contrary, if the difference between the preset startup time and the current actual startup time is within 20min or further within 10min, it is proved that the data can be used for adjusting the time correction parameter, so as to ensure the adjustment precision of the time correction parameter and avoid the waste of energy during heat storage.
It should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used for illustrating the principle of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art can adjust the setting manner described above so that the present invention can be applied to more specific application scenarios.
For example, in an alternative embodiment, the timing of determining the time correction parameter may be adjusted as long as the adjusted time satisfies a condition before the preset startup time is corrected this time. For example, the time correction parameter may also be determined before the preset boot time is obtained, and the like.
For another example, in another alternative embodiment, the determination of the time correction parameter is not constant, and the person skilled in the art can adjust the calculation process so that the calculated result can be more accurate. For example, in the calculation process, the historical preset starting-up time and the historical actual starting-up time may be determined in a manner of weighted average or the like instead of calculating the average value of the historical preset starting-up time and the historical pilot starting-up time.
For another example, in another alternative embodiment, the timing of adjusting the time correction parameter may be adjusted after each time the power-on command is received, and the process of determining the magnitude between the second difference and the preset threshold is omitted, and such a process is not deviated from the concept of the present invention.
As another example, in another alternative embodiment, the specific values of the set number of days, the time correction parameter, the preset power-on time, and the actual power-on time are only used as an illustrative example, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and a person skilled in the art may adjust the values without departing from the principles of the present control method.

A third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a heat storage control method of an air conditioner according to a third embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 4, in one possible embodiment, the main steps of the heat storage control method of the air conditioner include:
s301, acquiring a preset starting time of the air conditioner; for example, the preset starting time may be a starting time actively set by a user, or a starting time statistically obtained based on a historical starting time of the air conditioner.
S302, determining the heat storage time of the air conditioner based on the outdoor environment temperature; for example, after the preset startup time is obtained, the cloud server calculates the heat storage time matched with the outdoor environment temperature based on the outdoor environment temperature.
S303, calculating the heat storage starting time of the air conditioner based on the preset starting time and the heat storage time; for example, after the preset startup time is obtained and the heat storage time is determined, the heat storage start time is obtained by calculating the difference between the preset startup time and the heat storage time. If the heat storage time is determined to be 5min, and the preset starting time is 18:10, the heat storage starting time is 18: 05.
S304, when the heat accumulation starting moment is reached, determining the heat accumulation frequency of the compressor, the heat accumulation rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat accumulation opening degree of the throttling element based on the outdoor environment temperature; the heat storage frequency of the compressor and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element are determined based on the corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element respectively. The corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be a comparison table which is determined based on a heat storage test and is stored in the air conditioner, and the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be determined based on the outdoor environment temperature by using the comparison table. The corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element is similar to that of the compressor, and the description is omitted. Of course, in addition to determining the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotation speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element by using the comparison table, the heat storage frequency of the compressor, the heat storage rotation speed of the outdoor fan and the heat storage opening degree of the throttling element can also be determined by adopting a method of obtaining a fitting formula through a plurality of tests.
S305, controlling the compressor to operate at a heat storage frequency; if the compressor is controlled to operate at a certain frequency lower than the rated working frequency, for example, the heat storage frequency is 50Hz, and when the air conditioner stores heat, the compressor is controlled to operate at 50 Hz.
S306, adjusting the throttle element to the heat storage opening degree when the compressor starts to operate, wherein if the throttle element is an electronic expansion valve and the heat storage opening degree is 400P (P: opening unit step), the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted to 400P when the compressor starts to operate. Naturally, the adjustment timing of the throttle element can also be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the throttle element is correspondingly opened when the compressor is operating.
S307, controlling the outdoor fan to operate at a heat storage rotating speed while the compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is a direct current fan, the heat storage rotating speed of the direct current fan is 1000r/min, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be started and operated at the rotating speed of 1000r/min while the compressor starts to operate. Of course, the starting time of the outdoor fan may be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the outdoor fan is correspondingly started to operate when the compressor operates.
As can be seen from the above description, based on embodiment 1, the preset startup time is obtained, and the heat storage time of the air conditioner is determined based on the outdoor ambient temperature, so that the heat storage time is corrected based on the outdoor ambient temperature, the accuracy of the heat storage time is further ensured, and the energy is prevented from being wasted.
Since steps S304 to S307 are the same as or similar to the control method of embodiment 1, detailed description thereof is omitted. The following focuses on steps S301 to S303.
Preferably, the heat accumulation time may be calculated based on a fitting formula between the outdoor ambient temperature and the heat accumulation time. For example, the heat storage time is calculated using the following formula (1):
t＝k×Tao+b(1)
in formula (1), t represents the heat accumulation time, Tao is the outdoor ambient temperature, and k and b are constants that can be fit based on experimental data. For example, the heat accumulation time of the compressor is tested several times for different outdoor ambient temperatures. In multiple experiments, the air conditioner air outlet temperature when the air conditioner enters a normal operation state is set to be the same target temperature, the compressor is enabled to operate at the same heat storage frequency, the heat storage time required by the compressor when the air conditioner air outlet temperature reaches the same target temperature under different outdoor environment temperatures is judged, and therefore the linear relation between the heat storage time of the compressor and the outdoor environment temperature is established.
Of course, the determination of the heat storage time may also be performed based on other relationships between the outdoor ambient temperature and the heat storage time, such as the fixed corresponding relationship between the outdoor ambient temperature and the heat storage time. If a comparison table of the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage time is determined based on the heat storage test, the comparison table is stored in the air conditioner, and the heat storage time corresponding to the outdoor environment temperature can be determined by using the comparison table.
The setting mode has the advantages that: because different outdoor environment temperatures have great influence on the heat storage capacity of the air conditioner, the heat storage time is determined by utilizing a fitting formula or a corresponding relation between the outdoor environment temperature and the heat storage time, the accuracy of the heat storage time can be further ensured on the basis of ensuring the accuracy of the actual starting time, and the energy is prevented from being excessively wasted.

Naturally, the timing of the adjustment of the throttle element can also be before or after the start of the compressor operation, as long as the throttle element is correspondingly opened also during compressor operation.
S408, controlling the outdoor fan to operate at a heat storage rotating speed while the compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is a direct current fan, the heat storage rotating speed of the direct current fan is 1000r/min, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be started and operated at the rotating speed of 1000r/min while the compressor starts to operate. Of course, the starting time of the outdoor fan may be before or after the compressor starts to operate, as long as the outdoor fan is correspondingly started to operate when the compressor operates.
