As can be understood by those skilled in the art, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an air conditioner includes a compressor, a throttling element, an outdoor heat exchanger and an outdoor fan, and an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor fan, and a heat accumulation mode 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; controlling the compressor to operate at a heat accumulation frequency when a heat accumulation starting time is reached; controlling the outdoor fan to operate at the same time, before or after the compressor starts to operate; detecting a first coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger during operation of the compressor at the heat accumulation frequency; when the temperature of the first coil pipe is higher than the temperature of a first preset coil pipe, setting time at intervals and detecting the temperature of a second coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger again; judging the temperature of the second coil and the temperature of the first preset coil; and selectively adjusting the running frequency of the compressor and the on-off of the outdoor fan based on the judgment result.
Through the control mode, the heat storage mode control method can prolong the service life of the compressor, greatly reduce the fluctuation of the temperature of the coil pipe in the heat storage process of the air conditioner and improve the user experience. Specifically, the temperature of a first coil of an indoor heat exchanger is detected in the process that a compressor runs at a heat storage frequency, the temperature of a second coil of the indoor heat exchanger is detected at intervals for a set time when the temperature of the first coil is larger than the temperature of a first preset coil, and the running frequency of the compressor and/or the opening and closing of an outdoor fan are adjusted based on the comparison result of the temperature of the second coil and the temperature of the first preset coil; on the other hand, through controlling the compressor to keep operating all the time in the heat accumulation stage, guaranteed that the coil pipe temperature is in a comparatively stable temperature interval all the time, and through the switching of the frequency of adjustment compressor and outdoor fan, then can keep the coil pipe temperature in comparatively stable state, avoid because the coil pipe temperature fluctuation is great and the poor problem of user experience who brings.

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.
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.

Furthermore, the heat storage frequency of the compressor is determined based on the outdoor environment temperature, and then the compressor is controlled to operate based on the heat storage frequency, so that the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be adjusted based on the outdoor environment temperature, the heat storage frequency is guaranteed to be matched with the outdoor environment temperature, and the control precision of the air conditioner in the heat storage stage is improved. And the operation of the compressor is controlled based on the heat storage frequency determined by the outdoor environment temperature, and the temperature of the coil can be always in a better temperature range.
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 is described with an example in which the operation of the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned on while the compressor starts to operate, a person skilled in the art may adjust the sequence of turning on the compressor and the fan without departing from the principle of the present invention. For example, the outdoor fan may be controlled to operate before or after the compressor is turned on.
Example 1
First, referring to fig. 1 and 2, a heat storage mode control method of an air conditioner according to the present invention will be described. Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a heat storage mode control method of an air conditioner according to the present invention; fig. 2 is a logic diagram of a heat storage mode control method of an air conditioner according to the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, in order to solve the problems of short service life of the compressor and large temperature fluctuation of the coil pipe in the existing 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 an ac fan. The method for controlling the heat storage mode of the air conditioner mainly comprises the following steps:
s101, controlling a compressor to run at a heat storage frequency, for example, controlling the compressor to run at a certain frequency lower than a rated working frequency when the air conditioner runs in a heat storage mode, for example, controlling the heat storage frequency to be 50Hz, and controlling the compressor to run at 50Hz when the air conditioner runs in the heat storage mode;
s102, controlling an outdoor fan to operate while a compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is an ac fan, and the outdoor fan is controlled to start operation 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.
S103, detecting the temperature of a first coil of the indoor heat exchanger in the process that the compressor runs at the heat storage frequency; for example, after the compressor is started up and operated at the heat accumulation frequency of 50Hz for 1min, the temperature of the first coil of the indoor heat exchanger is detected by a temperature sensor provided on or near the indoor heat exchanger.
S104, when the temperature of the first coil pipe is higher than the temperature of a first preset coil pipe, setting time at intervals and detecting the temperature of a second coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger again; for example, the first preset coil temperature is 42 ℃, the set time is 30s, and when the detected first coil temperature is greater than 42 ℃, the second coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is detected again after the interval of 30 s.
S105, judging the temperature of the second coil and the temperature of the first preset coil; for example, after the temperature of the second coil is detected again, the detected temperature of the second coil and the 42 ℃ value are judged;
s106, selectively adjusting the opening and closing of the outdoor fan and the running frequency of the compressor based on the judgment result; for example, when the temperature of the coil is more than 42 ℃, the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned off, and the compressor is controlled to be reduced to a first preset frequency for operation, such as the compressor is controlled to be reduced to the lowest operation frequency for operation; and when the temperature of the coil is less than or equal to 42 ℃, controlling the outdoor fan to operate and controlling the compressor to keep the heat storage frequency to operate.
Through the control mode, the heat storage mode control method can prolong the service life of the compressor, greatly reduce the fluctuation of the temperature of the coil pipe in the heat storage process of the air conditioner and improve the user experience. Specifically, the temperature of a first coil of an indoor heat exchanger is detected in the process that a compressor runs at a heat storage frequency, the temperature of a second coil of the indoor heat exchanger is detected at intervals for a set time when the temperature of the first coil is larger than the temperature of a first preset coil, and the running frequency of the compressor and/or the opening and closing of an outdoor fan are adjusted based on the comparison result of the temperature of the second coil and the temperature of the first preset coil; on the other hand, through controlling the compressor to keep operating all the time in the heat accumulation stage, guaranteed that the coil pipe temperature is in a comparatively stable temperature interval all the time, and through the switching of the frequency of adjustment compressor and outdoor fan, then can keep the coil pipe temperature in comparatively stable state, avoid because the coil pipe temperature fluctuation is great and the poor problem of user experience who brings.
Because the alternating current fan is difficult to realize frequency conversion, the alternating current fan capable of frequency conversion is high in cost and poor in effect, and the control method adopts a mode of controlling the opening and closing of the alternating current fan to realize the control of the temperature of the coil pipe.
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.
The heat storage mode 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 fig. 2, in a preferred embodiment, the step S106 further includes:
when the temperature of the second coil pipe is higher than the temperature of the first preset coil pipe, controlling the compressor to reduce to the first preset frequency for operation, and controlling the outdoor fan to be turned off; and when the temperature of the second coil is less than or equal to the temperature of the first preset coil, controlling the compressor to keep the heat storage frequency running, and controlling the outdoor fan to keep on. For example, the first preset coil temperature may be 42 ℃, the first preset frequency may be the minimum operating frequency of the compressor 30Hz, and 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 temperature of the second coil is greater than 42 ℃, it is proved that the current coil temperature exceeds the preferred temperature, and the temperature rise speed of the coil needs to be slowed down. At the moment, the frequency of the compressor is reduced to the minimum working frequency of 30Hz, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned off, 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 second coil temperature is less than 42 ℃, it is proved that the current coil temperature is still low, and rapid temperature rise is still needed. At the moment, the compressor is kept running at the heat storage frequency of 50Hz, and the outdoor fan is controlled to keep running, so that the temperature rise speed of the coil pipe temperature can be ensured, and the temperature of the coil pipe can continuously rise.
Further, after the step of "controlling the compressor to operate at the first preset frequency and controlling the outdoor fan to be turned off" when the coil temperature is higher than 42 ℃, the heat accumulation mode control method further includes:
detecting the temperature of a third coil of the indoor heat exchanger; judging the temperature of the third coil and the first preset coil and the second preset coil; based on the comparison result, the switching of the outdoor fan and/or the operation frequency of the compressor are selectively adjusted. Specifically, when the temperature of the third coil is less than or equal to the second preset coil temperature, the compressor is controlled to be increased to the second preset frequency for operation, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be started; when the temperature of the third 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 running at the first preset frequency, and controlling the outdoor fan to keep turning off; wherein the first preset coil temperature is greater than the second preset coil temperature. For example, the second preset coil temperature may be 35 ℃, and the second preset frequency may be a heat storage frequency of 50Hz, or any reasonable frequency value higher than the first preset frequency of 30Hz, such as 40Hz, 45Hz, or 55 Hz. When the third coil temperature is less than 35 c, it is demonstrated that the coil temperature has dropped to a lower temperature, requiring an immediate increase in the rate of temperature rise. At the moment, the frequency of the compressor is increased to the heat storage frequency of 50Hz, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be started, 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 third coil is higher than 35 ℃, the temperature of the current coil is still higher, and the rapid cooling is still needed. At the moment, the compressor is kept running at the first preset frequency of 30Hz, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be kept closed, so that the temperature rise speed of the temperature of the coil pipe can be reduced.
When the temperature of the second coil pipe rises to be higher than the temperature of the first preset coil pipe, the compressor is controlled to be reduced to the first preset frequency to operate, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be closed, so that the pressure of the air conditioning system is reduced. When the temperature of the third coil pipe is reduced to be less than or equal to the second preset coil pipe temperature, the compressor is controlled to be increased to the second preset frequency to operate, the outdoor fan is controlled to be started, the pressure of the air conditioning system can be improved, the temperature of the coil pipe is further improved, and the coil pipe temperature is guaranteed to be always in a better interval.
Further, in a preferred embodiment, before the step of controlling the compressor to operate at the heat storage frequency, the heat storage mode control method may further include:
acquiring the outdoor environment temperature; based on the outdoor ambient temperature, the heat storage frequency of the compressor is determined. Specifically, when the outdoor environment temperature is less than or equal to a first preset environment temperature, determining the heat storage frequency of the compressor as a first heat storage frequency; 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 frequency of the compressor as a second heat storage frequency; when the outdoor environment temperature is higher than the second preset environment temperature, determining the heat storage frequency of the compressor as a third heat storage frequency; the first preset environment temperature is lower than the second preset environment temperature, the first heat storage frequency is higher than the second heat storage frequency, and the second heat storage frequency is higher than the third heat storage frequency.
For example, the first heat accumulation frequency may be 50Hz, the second heat accumulation frequency may be 45Hz, the third heat accumulation frequency may be 40Hz, the first preset ambient temperature may be-5 ℃ and the second preset ambient temperature may be 5 ℃. When the outdoor environment temperature is lower than-5 ℃, the outdoor environment temperature is lower, and the temperature of the coil of the indoor heat exchanger can be ensured to rise to a better temperature in the heat storage time only by operating the compressor at a higher frequency, so that the first heat storage frequency is set to 50Hz, the system pressure can be correspondingly improved, and the temperature of the coil can be ensured to be quickly raised in 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 does not need to be high under the same heat storage time condition, and the temperature of the coil can be ensured to be increased to a better area. Thus, the second heat storage frequency can be set to 45 Hz. 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 may be further set to 40 Hz.
The heat storage frequency of the compressor is determined based on the outdoor environment temperature, and then the compressor is controlled to operate based on the heat storage frequency, so that the heat storage frequency of the compressor can be adjusted based on the outdoor environment temperature, the heat storage frequency is guaranteed to be matched with the outdoor environment temperature, and the control precision of the air conditioner in a heat storage stage is improved. And the operation of the compressor is controlled based on the heat storage frequency determined by the outdoor environment temperature, and the temperature of the coil can be always in a better temperature range.
Further, in a preferred embodiment, before the step of "controlling the compressor to operate at the heat storage frequency", the heat storage mode control method further includes:
acquiring an outdoor environment temperature and/or an indoor environment temperature; a first preset coil temperature and a second preset coil temperature are determined based on the outdoor ambient temperature and/or the indoor ambient temperature. When the outdoor environment temperature and/or the indoor temperature are higher, the coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger is subjected to heat storage, and the user can feel warm only by correspondingly increasing the temperature of the coil pipe; when the outdoor environment temperature and/or the indoor environment temperature is low, the user can feel warm without increasing the coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger to be high correspondingly. The relation between the indoor environment temperature and/or the outdoor environment temperature and the first preset coil pipe temperature and the second preset coil pipe temperature can be determined through a fitting formula, and can also be determined through a relation comparison table. For example, when the outdoor ambient temperature is-5 ℃ and the indoor ambient temperature is 10 ℃, the first preset coil temperature is 39 ℃ and the second preset coil temperature is 33 ℃ based on the relation comparison table, when the coil temperature is maintained between 33 ℃ and 39 ℃, a user can feel warm when the compressor is started to heat, and the energy consumption of the compressor can be effectively reduced.
By determining the first preset coil temperature and the second preset coil temperature based on the outdoor environment temperature and/or the indoor environment temperature, the control method can enable the coil temperature to be matched with the indoor and outdoor environment temperatures, so that the operation energy consumption of the air conditioner is effectively reduced, and the user experience is improved.
Referring to fig. 2, a possible operation of the air conditioner of the present invention will be described.
As shown in fig. 2, during the heat storage operation of the air conditioner, firstly, the outdoor environment temperature is obtained to be 8 ℃ → the heat storage frequency of the compressor is determined to be 40Hz based on the outdoor environment temperature being 8 ℃, and the frequency of the compressor is adjusted according to the parameters, and meanwhile, the outdoor fan is controlled to be started to operate → when the temperature of the coil pipe rises to be more than 42 ℃, the interval 30s is used for judging whether the temperature of the coil pipe is more than 42 ℃ → when the temperature of the coil pipe is more than 42 ℃, the frequency of the compressor is controlled to be reduced to the minimum working frequency of 30Hz to operate, the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned off to reduce the system pressure, the rising speed of the coil pipe temperature is slowed down → when the temperature of the indoor coil pipe begins to be reduced to be less than 35 ℃, the frequency of the compressor is controlled to be increased to be 40Hz to operate, and the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned on to increase the system pressure and slow down the speed of the coil pipe temperature.
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, although the values of the first preset environment temperature, the second preset environment temperature, the first heat storage frequency, the second heat storage frequency and the third heat storage frequency are specifically illustrated in the present embodiment, the values are only used for illustrating the principle of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention, and a person skilled in the art may adjust the values so that the adjusted values can meet more specific application scenarios. Similarly, the setting time, the first preset coil temperature, the second preset coil temperature, the first preset frequency and the second preset frequency can be adjusted at will as long as the adjustment satisfies the necessary size relationship.
For example, in another alternative embodiment, although the present embodiment is described with an example of the simultaneous opening and controlling the outdoor fan to turn on operation while the compressor starts to operate, a person skilled in the art may make adjustments to the compressor and fan control sequence without departing from the principles of the present invention. For example, the start of the outdoor fan may be controlled before or after the compressor is turned on.
For example, in another alternative embodiment, although the ac fan is described in this embodiment with reference to the outdoor fan, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that the outdoor fan may be replaced by a dc fan, and when the dc fan is used, the on/off control of the ac fan may be replaced by adjusting the rotation speed of the dc fan.
For another example, in another alternative embodiment, although the embodiment only describes that the second determination is performed at the interval setting time when the first coil temperature is greater than the first preset coil temperature, in other steps of the control method, as long as the determination related to the coil temperature is performed, a control method of performing the second determination on the coil temperature after the interval setting time may be adopted, so as to further improve the accuracy of the control method.
Of course, the above alternative embodiments, and the alternative embodiments and the preferred embodiments can also be used in a cross-matching manner, so that a new embodiment is combined to be suitable for a more specific application scenario.
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 mode 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 method for controlling a heat storage mode of an air conditioner includes the main steps of:
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 time based on the time correction parameter; 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, controlling the compressor to operate at the heat accumulation frequency; if the cloud-end server calculates the heat accumulation starting time, when the time comes to 18:05, controlling the compressor to operate at a certain frequency lower than the rated working frequency, such as the heat accumulation frequency is 50Hz, and controlling the compressor to operate at 50Hz when the air conditioner operates in the heat accumulation mode;
s205, controlling an outdoor fan to operate while the compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is an ac fan, and the outdoor fan is controlled to start operation 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.
S206, detecting the temperature of a first coil of the indoor heat exchanger in the process that the compressor runs at the heat storage frequency; for example, after the compressor is started up and operated at the heat accumulation frequency of 50Hz for 1min, the temperature of the first coil of the indoor heat exchanger is detected by a temperature sensor provided on or near the indoor heat exchanger.
S207, when the temperature of the first coil pipe is higher than the temperature of a first preset coil pipe, setting time at intervals and detecting the temperature of a second coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger again; for example, the first preset coil temperature is 42 ℃, the set time is 30s, and when the detected first coil temperature is greater than 42 ℃, the second coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is detected again after the interval of 30 s.
S208, judging the temperature of the second coil and the temperature of the first preset coil; for example, after the temperature of the second coil is detected again, the detected temperature of the second coil and the 42 ℃ value are judged;
s209, selectively adjusting the on-off of the outdoor fan and the running frequency of the compressor based on the judgment result; for example, when the temperature of the coil is more than 42 ℃, the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned off, and the compressor is controlled to be reduced to a first preset frequency for operation, such as the compressor is controlled to be reduced to the lowest operation frequency for operation; and when the temperature of the coil is less than or equal to 42 ℃, controlling the outdoor fan to operate and controlling the compressor to keep the heat storage frequency to operate.
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 due to insufficient heat storage time or too long heat storage time, achieving accurate and personalized treatment for a single user, and improving user experience.
Since steps S204 to S209 are the same as or similar to the control method of embodiment 1, they are not described again here. 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 for operation 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 air conditioner in the past 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 the historical preset starting-up time is calculated to be 18:30 and the mean value of the 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 past 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, it indicates that the actual boot-up time of the user is 10min earlier than the preset boot-up time in the past 7 days, and therefore, when the preset boot-up time is estimated next time, the estimation accuracy of the preset boot-up time can be improved by calculating the sum of the preset boot-up time and the time correction parameter, namely subtracting 10min from the preset boot-up time as the corrected preset boot-up 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 instruction to perform heating operation, the time correction parameter is calculated and adjusted based on the acquired current actual starting time and the data in the past set days, and the control method enables the adjusted time correction parameter to better accord with the use habit of the user to the air conditioner in the latest period of time, and ensures the accuracy of the adjusted time correction parameter.
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, but the last time correction parameter is used.
For example, the preset threshold may be 20min, 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, the difference between the two is 60min, and the difference is much larger 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 request for leave or other reasons, so that the current actual start-up time at this time is not suitable for being used as adjustment of 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 instead. 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, instead of calculating the average value of the historical preset startup time and the historical commissioning startup time, a weighted average and the like manner may be used to determine the historical preset startup time and the historical actual startup 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 boot-up time, and the actual boot-up time are used only for illustrative purposes, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, which may be adjusted by those skilled in the art 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 mode 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 method for controlling a heat storage mode of an air conditioner includes the main steps of:
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, controlling the compressor to operate at the heat accumulation frequency; if the cloud-end server calculates the heat storage starting time, when the time comes to 18:05, controlling the compressor to operate at a certain frequency lower than the rated working frequency, such as the heat storage frequency is 50Hz, and controlling the compressor to operate at 50Hz when the air conditioner operates in the heat storage mode;
s305, controlling an outdoor fan to operate while a compressor starts to operate; for example, the outdoor fan is an ac fan, and the outdoor fan is controlled to start operation 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.
S306, detecting the temperature of a first coil of the indoor heat exchanger in the process that the compressor runs at the heat storage frequency; for example, after the compressor is started up and operated at the heat accumulation frequency of 50Hz for 1min, the temperature of the first coil of the indoor heat exchanger is detected by a temperature sensor provided on or near the indoor heat exchanger.
S307, when the temperature of the first coil pipe is higher than the temperature of a first preset coil pipe, setting time at intervals and detecting the temperature of a second coil pipe of the indoor heat exchanger again; for example, the first preset coil temperature is 42 ℃, the set time is 30s, and when the detected first coil temperature is greater than 42 ℃, the second coil temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is detected again after the interval of 30 s.
S308, judging the temperature of the second coil and the temperature of the first preset coil; for example, after the temperature of the second coil is detected again, the detected temperature of the second coil and the 42 ℃ value are judged;
s309, selectively adjusting the opening and closing of the outdoor fan and the running frequency of the compressor based on the judgment result; for example, when the temperature of the coil is more than 42 ℃, the outdoor fan is controlled to be turned off, and the compressor is controlled to be reduced to a first preset frequency for operation, such as the compressor is controlled to be reduced to the lowest operation frequency for operation; and when the temperature of the coil is less than or equal to 42 ℃, controlling the outdoor fan to operate and controlling the compressor to keep the heat storage frequency to operate.
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 S309 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 outlet temperature of the air conditioner is set to be the same target temperature when the air conditioner enters a normal operation state, the compressor is enabled to operate at the same heat storage frequency, the heat storage time required by the compressor when the air outlet temperature of the air conditioner 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.
