[ basic operation principle of air conditioner ]
A refrigeration cycle of an air conditioner includes a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. The refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and supplies refrigerant to the air that has been conditioned and heat-exchanged.
The compressor compresses a refrigerant gas in a high-temperature and high-pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
The expansion valve expands the liquid-phase refrigerant in a high-temperature and high-pressure state condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor. The evaporator can achieve a cooling effect by heat-exchanging with a material to be cooled using latent heat of evaporation of a refrigerant. The air conditioner can adjust the temperature of the indoor space throughout the cycle.
The outdoor unit of the air conditioner refers to a portion including a compressor of a refrigeration cycle and includes an outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes an indoor heat exchanger, and an expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit of the air conditioner.
The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger serve as a condenser or an evaporator. The air conditioner is used as a heater in a heating mode when the indoor heat exchanger is used as a condenser, and as a cooler in a cooling mode when the indoor heat exchanger is used as an evaporator.
[ air-conditioner ]
In the present application, the compressor 11 is a compressor having a function of supplementing air and increasing enthalpy. And referring to fig. 1, the compressor 11 includes an intermediate chamber a and a suction chamber b.
The suction chamber b of the compressor 11 compresses the entering refrigerant to ensure the refrigerant circulation; the intermediate chamber b of the compressor 11 performs heat exchange after the refrigerant is sucked, so as to reduce the temperature of the compressor 11, thereby ensuring the operational reliability of the compressor 11.
The plate heat exchanger 13 comprises a first heat exchanging channel T2 and a second heat exchanging channel T1, wherein the first heat exchanging channel T2 comprises a first port a1 and a second port a2, and the second heat exchanging channel T1 comprises a first port b1 and a second port b 2.
The compressor 11, the outdoor heat exchanger 12, the second heat exchange passage T1 of the plate heat exchanger 13 and the indoor heat exchanger 15 constitute a refrigerant main circulation circuit.
The second port b2 of the second heat exchanging passage T1 of the plate heat exchanger 13 communicates with one end of the outdoor heat exchanger 12, and the first port b1 of the second heat exchanging passage T1 communicates with one end of the indoor heat exchanger 15.
The electronic expansion valve 14 is disposed on a passage between the second port b2 of the second heat exchange passage T1 of the plate heat exchanger 13 and the first port a1 of the first heat exchange passage T2, and is configured to adjust an amount of air supplement returned to the compressor 11 by adjusting an opening degree thereof, so as to achieve enthalpy increase.
The second port a2 of the first heat exchange passage T2 of the plate heat exchanger 13 communicates with the supplementary air port of the intermediate chamber a of the compressor 11.
In addition to controlling the air conditioner to perform a heating/cooling cycle, the controller (not shown) may be configured to control and adjust the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 to adjust the amount of air supplement returned to the air supplement port of the intermediate chamber a of the compressor 11.
[ operation mode of air conditioner ]
When the air conditioner is in a heating cycle, refrigerant sprayed from the compressor 11 enters the indoor heat exchanger 15 through the four-way valve (at the moment, the four-way valve is powered on), after heat exchange is performed in the indoor heat exchanger 15, the refrigerant is cooled through the second heat exchange channel T1 of the plate heat exchanger 13, the refrigerant is divided into two paths, one path enters the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for heat exchange, then is conveyed to the compressor 11 for compression, and the other path is throttled and depressurized through the electronic expansion valve 24, then flows back to the first heat exchange channel T2 of the plate heat exchanger 13 for cooling, and then is output to the air supplement port of the middle cavity a of the compressor 11 through the second port a2 of the first heat exchange channel T63.
The refrigerant flow path in the heating cycle is shown by a broken line in fig. 1.
When the air conditioner is in a refrigeration cycle, refrigerant sprayed from the compressor 11 enters the outdoor heat exchanger 12 through the four-way valve (at the moment, the four-way valve is powered off), after heat exchange is performed in the outdoor heat exchanger 12, the refrigerant is divided into two paths, one path of refrigerant is output from the first port b1 to the indoor heat exchanger 15 for heat exchange through the second heat exchange channel T1 of the plate heat exchanger 13, finally, the refrigerant returns to the compressor 11 through the four-way valve, and after throttling and pressure reduction through the electronic expansion valve 14, the other path of refrigerant returns to the first heat exchange channel T2 of the plate heat exchanger 13 for cooling and then is output to the air supplement port of the middle cavity a of the compressor 11 through.
The refrigerant flow path in the refrigeration cycle is shown by a solid line in fig. 1.
[ opening degree control of electronic expansion valve ]
The controller comprehensively controls and adjusts the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 according to the current exhaust superheat deviation E (n) of the electronic expansion valve 14 and the time change derivative DE (n) of the exhaust superheat deviation E (n).
Wherein de (n) = E (n) -E (n-1).
The control of the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 mainly involves determining the deviation e (n) of the degree of superheat of the exhaust gas, determining the sampling time T, and determining the time-varying derivative de (n) of the deviation.
Open and closed conditions of electronic expansion valve
In the present application, the conditions for opening the electronic expansion valve 14 include at least the following conditions: a. the compressor 11 is operated for a number of times (e.g. 5 minutes); b. the actual running frequency f of the compressor 11 is more than or equal to the preset frequency; c. the suction pressure PSL of the compressor 11 is smaller than a preset pressure value.
In the present application, the condition that the electronic expansion valve 14 is closed (i.e., the opening degree is 0pls (i.e., the number of steps)) includes at least one of the following: a', the compressor 11 is stopped (for example, by remote controller operation stop, thermostat power off, abnormal stop, etc.); b', the actual running frequency f of the compressor 11 is less than the preset frequency; c', the suction pressure PSL of the compressor 11 is more than or equal to a preset pressure value; d', the air conditioner is in a defrost mode.
In the present application, the predetermined frequency is set to 40Hz and the predetermined pressure value is set to 0.56 MPa.
Allowable lower limit of opening of electronic expansion valve
The compressor 11 is first powered on to operate at an operating frequency f of 40Hz for three minutes, and the initial opening of the electronic expansion valve 14 is 32 pls.
Thereafter, if the actual operating frequency f of the compressor 11 decreases, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled to allow the decrease to 0 pls; when the actual operating frequency f of the compressor 11 increases, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled to allow the down-regulation to 32 pls.
Determining the exhaust superheat deviation E (n)
The actual discharge superheat Td of the compressor 11 is calculated when the compressor 11 is on for a number of times (e.g., 5 minutes) and the electronic expansion valve 14 is open.
The actual discharge superheat Td of the compressor 11 is equal To the difference between the discharge pipe temperature Te and the high pressure saturation temperature To.
The exhaust pipe temperature Te and the high pressure saturation temperature To can be obtained by the means of the prior art, and are not described herein.
In order to accurately calculate the exhaust superheat deviation e (n), the controller sets an upper limit value SPH and a lower limit value SPL of a target exhaust superheat of the compressor 11, and divides the target exhaust superheat so as to be able to calculate the exhaust superheat deviation e (n) in a targeted manner.
Dividing the target exhaust superheat degree into three sections according to the upper limit value SPH and the lower limit value SPL of the target exhaust superheat degree: a first interval (- ∞, SPL), a second interval [ SPL, SPH ], and a third interval (SPH, + ∞).
For example, the target degree of superheat of exhaust gas in the first section is set to SPL 1; the target degree of superheat of the exhaust gas in the second section is set to SPLH, and the target degree of superheat of the exhaust gas in the third section is set to SPH 1.
The exhaust superheat deviation e (n) is calculated from the sections (i.e., the first section, the second section, and the third section) in which the calculated actual exhaust superheat Td is located, and the target exhaust superheat in the sections (i.e., the SPL1 corresponding to the first section, the SPLH corresponding to the second section, and the SPH1 corresponding to the third section).
In the present application, when the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is in the first section, the exhaust superheat degree deviation e (n) = Td-SPL1 is calculated; when the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is in the second interval, the fluctuation of the exhaust superheat degree deviation e (n) is small, so the controller sets the exhaust superheat degree deviation e (n) = 0; when the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is in the third section, the exhaust superheat degree deviation e (n) = Td-SPH1 is calculated.
Determining a sampling time T
The sampling time T is determined according to the exhaust superheat deviation E (n), namely, the sampling time T is determined according to the sections (namely, the first section, the second section and the third section) of the target exhaust superheat, where the calculated actual exhaust superheat Td is located.
When the actual exhaust superheat Td is in the first section, the sampling time T is determined to be the first period T1.
When the actual exhaust superheat Td is in the second section, the sampling time T is determined to be the second period T2.
When the actual exhaust superheat Td is in the third section, the sampling time T is determined to be the third period T3.
In the present application, since the exhaust superheat deviation e (n) =0 is set when the actual exhaust superheat Td is in the second interval, the sampling time T can be appropriately extended when the actual exhaust superheat Td is in the second interval, that is, T2 is greater than T1 and T3, respectively.
The sampling time T is an operation period for adjusting the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14, and for example, the sampling time T =20 seconds means that the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled and adjusted when the current time passes 20 seconds, and the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled and adjusted when the current time passes 20 seconds, so that the operation is repeated until the compressor 11 is stopped.
In the present application, T1= T3=20 seconds, T2=120 seconds are selected. Of course, other values for T1, T2, and T3 may be selected.
For example, when the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is in the first interval, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled and adjusted according to e (n) and de (n) in the first interval, after 20 seconds of the current time, if the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is still in the first interval, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled and adjusted according to e (n) and de (n) in the first interval, after 20 seconds, if the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is in the second interval, the interval where the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is located is continuously monitored for 20 seconds, if 120 seconds are both in the second interval, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled and adjusted according to e (n) and de (n) in the second interval, if 20 seconds are passed, the actual exhaust superheat degree Td is in the third interval, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled and adjusted according to e (n) and de (n) in the third interval, thereafter, the actual discharge superheat Td is monitored continuously until the compressor 11 is stopped.
When e (n) > 0, it indicates that the actual exhaust superheat Td is higher than the target exhaust superheat (i.e., SPL1 or SPH 1), and at this time, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 needs to be controlled in the opening direction.
When the discharge superheat deviation e (n) > 0 is detected at the current sampling time T, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is increased as e (n) increases.
That is, when e (n) is large and the amount of change is small, the number of steps by which the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is adjusted to be large is small, and when e (n) is large and the amount of change is large, the number of steps by which the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is adjusted to be large is large, see the data in table 1.
When e (n) < 0, it indicates that the actual exhaust superheat Td is lower than the target exhaust superheat (i.e., SPL1 or SPH 1), and at this time, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 needs to be controlled in the closing direction.
When the gas superheat deviation e (n) < 0 at the current sampling time T, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is decreased as e (n) decreases.
That is, when e (n) is small and the amount of change is small, the number of steps for decreasing the opening degree adjustment of the electronic expansion valve 14 is small, and when e (n) is small and the amount of change is large, the number of steps for decreasing the opening degree adjustment of the electronic expansion valve 14 is large, see the data in table 1.
Determining the time-varying derivative DE (n)
The time-varying derivative DE (n) is the ratio of the deviation of the exhaust superheat E (n) to the sampling time T, i.e., DE (n) = (E (n) -E (n-1))/T, where E (n) is the exhaust superheat deviation at the current sampling time and E (n-1) is the exhaust superheat deviation at the last sampling time.
When de (n) > 0 indicates that the actual exhaust superheat Td is increasing, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 needs to be controlled in the opening direction.
At the current sampling time, when the time-varying differential value DE (n) > 0, the electronic expansion valve opening degree is increased as DE (n) becomes larger.
That is, when de (n) > 0, the number of steps by which the opening degree adjustment of the electronic expansion valve 14 is increased is small when de (n) is large and the amount of change is small, and is large when de (n) is large and the amount of change is large, see the data in table 1.
When de (n) < 0, this means that the actual exhaust superheat Td is decreasing, and at this time, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 needs to be controlled in the closing direction.
At the present sampling time, when the exhaust superheat deviation de (n) < 0, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is decreased as de (n) becomes smaller.
That is, when de (n) < 0, the number of steps in which the opening degree adjustment of the electronic expansion valve 14 is reduced is small when de (n) is small and the amount of change is small, and the number of steps in which the opening degree adjustment of the electronic expansion valve 14 is small is large when de (n) is small and the amount of change is large, see the data in table 1.
The opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is controlled comprehensively based on the exhaust superheat deviation e (n) and the time variation derivative de (n) obtained as described above, and the number of opening degree control steps of the electronic expansion valve 14 is schematically shown in table 1 below.

Where the data in table 1, for example, a positive number indicates a number of steps added to the current opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14, for example, a negative number indicates a number of steps subtracted to the current opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14, and data 0 indicates that the number of steps of the electronic expansion valve 14 is adjusted to zero, according to the differences e (n) and de (n).
For example, when 10 < E (n) and-2 ≦ DE (n) < 2, the current opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is increased by the step number 4; when E (n) is more than 10 and less than or equal to DE (n) and less than or equal to 2, the current opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is increased by 4 steps; when E (n) is less than or equal to 5 and DE (n) is less than-5, reducing the current opening of the electronic expansion valve 14 by 2 steps; when E is more than or equal to-2 and less than or equal to (n) and DE is more than or equal to-5 and less than or equal to (n) 2, the current opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is reduced by 1 step.
The air conditioner of the embodiment comprehensively performs PID adjustment on the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 according to the exhaust superheat degree deviation E (n) and the time variation derivative DE (n) of the exhaust superheat degree deviation, so that the step number of the adjustment on the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve 14 is finer, the large fluctuation of the exhaust superheat degree of the compressor is avoided, the performance of the compressor is improved, liquid return through the electronic expansion valve 14 is avoided, and the working reliability of the whole air conditioner system is improved.
