Fig. 1 is a schematic method diagram of an embodiment of an air conditioner control method provided by the present invention.

As shown in fig. 1, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the air conditioner control method includes at least step S110 and step S130.

And step S110, predicting the first time required by the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner.

In some specific embodiments, the user position is automatically updated in a mobile phone network positioning mode, and the time required for the user to return home is automatically calculated according to information such as road condition information and user moving speed rate, so that the calculation operation can be completed on the mobile phone APP, and the calculation can also be completed through the server platform. Specifically, map information including the current position of the target user and the position of the air conditioner is obtained; performing path planning by taking the current position of the target user as a starting point and the position of the air conditioner as a terminal point based on the map information to obtain corresponding path planning information; acquiring the moving speed of the target user to the position where the air conditioner is located; and predicting the first time required by the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner according to the path planning information and the moving speed.

The map information may specifically include road condition information (e.g., information such as road congestion information, construction information, and restrictions), road information (e.g., road location, start point, end point), and route information. The method comprises the steps of obtaining position information of a current position of a target user and position information of a position of an air conditioner, planning a path with the current position of the target user as a starting point and the position of the air conditioner as an end point according to map information, the position information of the current position of the target user and the position information of the position of the air conditioner, planning a shortest distance S from the current position of the user to the position of the air conditioner by integrating road condition information, obtaining a moving speed of the target user to the position of the air conditioner, for example, obtaining an average moving speed within t0 time (for example, 5min) when the user approaches the position of the air conditioner, as the moving speed of the target user to the position of the air conditioner, and estimating time t which is required by the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner to be S/v according to the shortest distance S and the moving speed v. Alternatively, the route can be planned through the existing map software, and the time required for reaching the position of the air conditioner can be predicted according to the current moving speed of the target user.

And step S120, acquiring a second time required for the air conditioner to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature.

When the first time T1 when the target user arrives at the position of the air conditioner is predicted, calculating a second time T2 ═ f (Q1, Q2, qm) and a total power consumption W ═ f (E, T2) required for adjusting the temperature of the room (cooling, heating and warming) to a set temperature by adopting various strategies (namely different operation parameters such as different compressor frequencies and different internal fan rotating speeds).

In a specific embodiment, the refrigerating or heating capacity qm and the energy efficiency E in unit time under different operating parameters are obtained, the second time and the air conditioning power w required for adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature (refrigerating and cooling, heating and warming) under the corresponding parameters are calculated according to the refrigerating capacity qm and the energy efficiency E in unit time under the different operating parameters, and then the total power, that is, the total power consumption is calculated according to the calculated second time required for adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature.

Taking air-conditioning refrigeration as an example, assuming that a temperature drop value for lowering the room temperature to a set temperature is Δ t, the required refrigeration amount is Qm-cm Δ t. The refrigerating capacity qm of the air conditioner per unit time is mainly related to the current indoor temperature T_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the rotating speed R of the internal fan are related, and a relational expression qm-F (T) can be established through data fitting_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}F, R) (it should be understood that there is a relationship with the rotation speed of the external fan, the opening degree of the throttle device, the outdoor humidity, etc., and only the key variation values are listed for the convenience of calculationFor fitting data, the relation can be a linear relation), and the indoor temperature T can also be established through experiments_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table of the compressor running frequency F, the rotating speed R of the internal fan and the refrigerating capacity qm in unit time is searched for different indoor temperatures T by a table look-up method_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the refrigerating capacity qm per unit time at the rotating speed R of the internal fan are determined according to the indoor temperature T_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the rotating speed R of the internal fan can predict the refrigerating capacity qm of the air conditioner in unit time.

The refrigerating capacity Qm (neglecting refrigerating capacity loss) required by reducing the room temperature to the set temperature can be obtained according to Qm-cm delta T, and the relational expression Qm-f (T) is established by data fitting_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}F, R), or the cooling capacity per unit time Qm under different operation parameters can be predicted by a table look-up method, so that the time T2 required to reduce the room temperature to the set temperature under different operation parameters can be obtained according to Qm Δ T.

The energy efficiency of the air conditioner is different due to different operating parameters, for example, when the frequency F is reduced, the power is reduced, the efficiency is improved within a certain range, but when the frequency is lower than a certain value, the energy efficiency is reduced due to the fact that the reduction amplitude of the capacity output is larger than the reduction amplitude of the power; the rotating speed R also has great influence on the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, and the air volume is increased within a certain range, so that the heat exchange of an internal machine can be enhanced, the energy efficiency is improved, and therefore, an energy efficiency function E can be established as f (T)_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Inner part}F, R); the indoor temperature T can also be established through experiments_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table of the compressor running frequency F, the rotating speed R of the internal fan and the energy efficiency E of the air conditioner is used for searching different indoor temperatures T through a table look-up method_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the energy efficiency E under the rotating speed R of the internal fan.

The energy efficiency E of the air conditioner is qm/w (w is the air conditioner power), so the air conditioner power w under the corresponding parameter can be calculated according to the refrigerating capacity qm per unit time and the energy efficiency E under different operating parameters, and then the total power, that is, the total power consumption, is calculated according to the calculated time required for reducing the room temperature to the set temperature.

In another specific embodiment, the refrigerating or heating capacity qm in unit time, the lost refrigerating or heating capacity q2 in unit time and the energy efficiency E under different operation parameters are obtained, the second time and the air conditioning power w required for adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature (refrigerating and cooling, heating and heating) under the corresponding parameters are calculated according to the refrigerating capacity qm in unit time, the lost refrigerating or heating capacity q2 in unit time and the energy efficiency E under the different operation parameters, and the total power, namely the total power consumption, is calculated according to the calculated second time required for adjusting the room temperature to the set temperature.

Specifically, taking the operation cooling mode as an example, the temperature drop effect of the room is related to the air conditioner and the room environment, in addition to the output capacity of the air conditioner and the size of the room space, for example, the area size of the glass door and window, whether the sun is directly shining, the wall material and the like exist, and the loss of the cooling capacity of the room is related to the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the room, so dynamic measurement and estimation are needed, a part of the cooling capacity output by the air conditioner leaks to the outside of the room through the door and window gap, and the rest part is used for cooling the room, including the walls, furniture and other objects in the room, and the speed of cooling the air is faster than that of cooling other objects, and the part used for cooling the air can be calculated by the formula Q1 ═ cm Δ T (where c is the specific heat capacity of the air, m is the air quality, and Δ T is the temperature drop value), and: q2 is Qm-Q1, (Qm is the output cooling capacity of the air conditioner at delta T time, and the cooling capacity Qm at unit time is Qm/delta T), that is, the cooling capacity loss rate Q2 is Q2/delta T (the unit time loss cooling capacity), the value is not a fixed value, the influence factors are more, the cooling capacity loss can be related to the key factors, that is, Q2 is f (T) and the cooling capacity loss is f (T)_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}) Wherein, T_{Inner part}Indicating the room temperature, T_{Outer cover}The outdoor temperature is represented by the detected value Q2/. DELTA.T and the predicted value f (T)_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}) Deterministic estimationf, and using the relationship to predict Q2 ═ f (T)_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}Δ T); or establishing the room temperature T by experiment_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table with the cold loss rate q2 is used for searching different indoor temperatures T by a table look-up method_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The cold loss rate q 2.

The refrigerating capacity qm of the air conditioner per unit time is mainly related to the current indoor temperature T_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the rotating speed R of the internal fan are related, and a relational expression qm-F (T) can be established through data fitting_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}F, R), (it should be understood that there is a relationship with the rotation speed of the external fan, the opening degree of the throttle device, the outdoor humidity, etc., and only the key variation values are listed for data fitting for convenient calculation, and the relationship may be a linear relationship), and the indoor temperature T may be established through experiments_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table of the compressor running frequency F, the rotating speed R of the internal fan and the refrigerating capacity qm in unit time is searched for different indoor temperatures T by a table look-up method_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the refrigerating capacity qm per unit time at the rotating speed R of the internal fan are determined according to the indoor temperature T_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the rotating speed R of the internal fan can predict the refrigerating capacity qm of the air conditioner in unit time.

The energy efficiency of the air conditioner is different due to different operation parameters, for example, when the frequency F is reduced, the power is reduced, the efficiency is improved within a certain range, when the frequency is lower than a certain value, the energy efficiency is reduced because the reduction range of the capacity output is larger than the reduction range of the power, the rotating speed R has a large influence on the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, and when the air volume is increased within a certain range, the heat exchange of an indoor unit can be enhanced, the energy efficiency is improved, and therefore, an energy efficiency function E (T) F (T) can be established_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Inner part}F, R); the indoor temperature T can also be established through experiments_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}And compression of the sameThe corresponding relation table of the machine running frequency F, the rotating speed R of the internal fan and the energy efficiency E of the air conditioner is used for searching different indoor temperatures T by a table look-up method_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the energy efficiency E under the rotating speed R of the internal fan.

Based on the foregoing manner, the variable condition (indoor temperature T) is determined at present_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}) Then, the cooling capacity Q1 required for adjusting the current temperature of the room to the set temperature, the cooling capacity qm per unit time, the lost cooling capacity Q2 per unit time and the energy efficiency E under different operation parameters (such as the operation frequency F of the compressor and the rotation speed R of the internal fan) can be obtained. And Q1-Qm-Q2, i.e., Q1-Qm-T2-Q2-T2, the time T2 required to lower the room temperature to the set temperature is Q1/(Qm-Q2); that is, different time T2 required for reducing the room temperature to the set temperature under different operation parameters (e.g., the compressor operation frequency F and the inner fan rotation speed R) and different energy efficiency E under the operation parameters can be obtained, and the energy efficiency E of the air conditioner is qm/W (W is the air conditioner power), so that the power W under the corresponding operation parameters can be calculated according to the refrigerating capacity qm per unit time and the energy efficiency E under the different operation parameters, and the total power W can be obtained by time integration according to the obtained time T2 required for reducing the room temperature to the set temperature, so that the second time T2F (Q1, Q2, qm) required for adjusting the room temperature to the set temperature and the total power consumption W (E, T2) under the different operation parameters (e.g., the different compressor frequencies and the different inner fan rotation speeds) can be obtained.

The information that the air conditioner needs to be preset at least comprises the following information: the air conditioner is positioned in the room, the area, the height, the position and the like, so as to estimate the cooling loss Q2 value, and obtain the current indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity information, so as to calculate the cold and hot load. The parameters that need to be preset before the air conditioner leaves the factory at least comprise: the relationship between the capacity output and the energy efficiency of the air conditioner and the frequency, the relationship between the inner ring and the outer ring and the relationship between the rotation speed and the energy efficiency of the air conditioner can be a formula calculation method or a table lookup method. And a correction coefficient can be added to the calculation function, and the calculated value is closer to the test value through the optimization of the correction coefficient according to the recorded difference between the calculated value and the test value of executing the mode every time, so that the error is reduced, and the intelligent learning is realized.

And step S130, determining whether to start the air conditioner according to the acquired first time and the acquired second time.

And the second time comprises the shortest time T2min required by the air conditioner to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature, and the operation parameter corresponding to the shortest time is the operation parameter corresponding to the current maximum capacity output state of the air conditioner. If the shortest time is more than or equal to the difference value between the first time and a preset correction time, starting the air conditioner; and when the air conditioner is started, controlling the air conditioner to operate according to a maximum capacity output mode. More specifically, the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to the operation parameters corresponding to the maximum capacity output state, and the operation parameters include: compressor operating frequency and/or inner fan speed.

Specifically, when the shortest time T2min is not less than T1-T3, (T2min represents the time required by the air conditioner to operate to the set temperature in the maximum capacity output state, T3 is the preset correction time, and in order to ensure the use effect, the correction time is increased on the calculated time, and is 1-10min, for example, 3min), at the moment, the air conditioner is immediately started, and the temperature is reduced according to the maximum capacity output mode, that is, the air conditioner operates according to the compressor operation frequency and/or the internal fan rotation speed corresponding to the maximum output mode.

Optionally, the second time further includes a time T2be required when the air conditioner is powered down to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature. If the shortest time is less than the difference value between the first time and a preset correction time, judging whether the first time is less than or equal to the sum of the time required when the power consumption is minimum and the preset correction time; if the first time is less than or equal to the sum of the time required by the minimum power consumption and a preset correction time, setting the starting time of the air conditioner as the time required by the minimum power consumption, and when the air conditioner is started, controlling the air conditioner to operate according to a minimum power consumption mode, namely after T2be time, starting the air conditioner and controlling the air conditioner to operate according to an operation parameter corresponding to the minimum power consumption mode, wherein the operation parameter comprises: compressor operating frequency and/or inner fan speed.

Specifically, after the first time T1 when the target user arrives at the location of the air conditioner is predicted, the second time T2 ═ f (Q1, Q2, qm) and the total power consumption W ═ f (E, T2) required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature using various different operation parameters are calculated, and the shortest time T2min required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature and the time T2be required to minimize the power consumption required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature are obtained. And when the shortest time T2min is less than T1-T3, taking the time T2be when the total power consumption is the minimum Wmin as the opening time of the air conditioner (the time value range is (T2, T1-T3)), namely when T1 is less than or equal to T2be + T3, opening the air conditioner according to the operation parameters determined by the power consumption Wmin.

Optionally, the method further comprises: before the air conditioner is started, the first time required for the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner is predicted again at intervals of preset intervals; re-acquiring a second time required for adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature; and re-determining whether to start the air conditioner according to the re-acquired first time and second time. Since the time (first time) for the user to return home is dynamically changed, the first time required for the target user to reach the position where the air conditioner is located needs to be predicted again at intervals, the second time required for adjusting the temperature of the room where the target user is located to the set temperature needs to be obtained again, and whether the air conditioner is started or not is determined again according to the obtained first time and second time. The embodiment of the above steps is substantially the same as the embodiment of the steps S110 to S130, and the detailed description thereof is omitted.

Optionally, after the air conditioner is started, predicting the first time required for the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner again at preset intervals; re-acquiring a second time required for adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature; and updating the operation parameters of the air conditioner according to the obtained first time and second time.

The time (first time) for the user to return home is dynamically changed, after the air conditioner is started, whether the air conditioner is started or not can be still determined according to the first time for the target user to reach the position where the air conditioner is located and the second time for adjusting the temperature of the room where the air conditioner is located to the set temperature, wherein if the air conditioner is determined not to be started (namely the condition for starting the air conditioner is not met, namely the first time is less than or equal to the sum of the time required for the minimum power consumption and the preset correction time), the air conditioner is controlled to be turned off after the first preset time;

if the air conditioner is determined to be started (that is, the shortest time is greater than or equal to the difference between the first time and the preset correction time), because the time (the first time) for the user to return to home is dynamically changed, the newly acquired shortest time T2min required for adjusting the temperature of the room where the user is located to the set temperature is also changed, the operation parameter corresponding to the newly acquired shortest time, that is, the operation parameter corresponding to the current maximum capacity output state of the air conditioner may also be changed, and the operation parameter of the air conditioner needs to be updated. Considering from the aspects of user comfort and energy conservation, when the difference value between the updated operation parameter and the current operation parameter exceeds the corresponding preset threshold value, the operation is carried out according to the updated operation parameter, otherwise, the operation is continued according to the current operation parameter. For example, when the difference between the updated compressor operation frequency and the current operation frequency is large (exceeds a preset frequency value), for example, the difference is more than F1 (for example, 4Hz), the operation parameters (frequency, rotation speed) of the air conditioner are updated according to the newly calculated strategy.

If the current first time is greater than the preset time threshold, the preset interval time is equal to the first preset interval time, and if the current first time is less than or equal to the preset time threshold, the preset interval time is equal to the first preset interval time.

For example, a time threshold T4 (e.g., 20min) is preset, and when T1 > T4, the operating state is updated every T1 time (e.g., 1min), and when T1 ≦ T4, the operating state is updated every T2 time (e.g., T2 ≦ T1/30).

Based on the above embodiment, further, after the air conditioner is started, if it is determined that the condition for starting the air conditioner is not satisfied according to the reacquired first time and second time, after a first preset time, the air conditioner is controlled to be turned off.

For example, if the first preset time T5 is determined to not satisfy the power-on condition after updating, the shutdown operation needs to be performed after the time difference is more than T5 (e.g., 10 min).

Optionally, after the air conditioner is started, when the first time required for predicting that the target user reaches the position of the air conditioner is less than or equal to a second preset time, the air conditioner is controlled to be switched to a normal operation mode.

For example, the second preset time is T6, and when T1 ≦ T6 (e.g., 1min), it is determined that the user has arrived at home, and the air conditioner is switched to the normal automatic cooling mode (including at least the adjustment of the rotation speed of the internal fan in the low noise mode) to control and operate the air conditioner.

Optionally, if the user does not set the target temperature value, pressing the default temperature T_{Silent glass}(e.g., 26 ℃) as the target set temperature.

For clearly explaining the technical solution of the present invention, the following describes an execution flow of the air conditioner control method provided by the present invention with a specific embodiment.

Fig. 2 is a schematic method diagram of an embodiment of an air conditioner control method according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, when the air conditioner receives the mode of returning home set by the user, the time T1 required by the user to return home is calculated; calculating the shortest time T2min required for reaching the set state according to the current parameters; if T1 is less than or equal to T2min + T3, the air conditioner is started according to the maximum capacity output state; otherwise, calculating the lowest power consumption scheme Wmin within a time interval (T2min, T1-T3) and the running time is T2be, starting the air conditioner according to the lowest power consumption scheme when T2be is more than or equal to T1-T3, updating the running state every T1 or T2 time according to whether T1 meets T1 or less than or equal to T4, and switching to the normal running mode when T1 is more than or equal to T6.

The invention is suitable for air-conditioning equipment which can use Internet communication modes such as wifi and the like, and comprises an air conditioner, a communication module and a mobile phone terminal APP. When a user operates and sets to start the air conditioner in advance on the APP, the air conditioner can be started at a specific time, or an intelligent starting mode of the scheme can be set, the difference is that the former needs the user to set the time for returning home approximately, the specific time for returning home (several clocks for returning home) or the time duration for returning home (how long the time for returning home) can be set, and the air conditioner is started according to the user setting mode, similar to the existing air conditioner timing mode; in the intelligent starting mode, the user does not need to set specific time, only needs to determine and execute the operation, automatically updates the position of the user in a mobile phone network positioning mode, and automatically calculates the time required by the user to return home according to road condition information, user displacement rate and other information. The calculation operation can be completed on a mobile phone APP, and the calculation can also be completed through a server platform.

Fig. 3 is a block diagram of an embodiment of an air conditioning control apparatus according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the air conditioning control apparatus 100 includes a prediction unit 110, an acquisition unit 120, and a control unit 130.

The prediction unit 110 is configured to predict a first time required for the target user to reach the location of the air conditioner.

In some specific embodiments, the user position is automatically updated in a mobile phone network positioning mode, and the time required for the user to return home is automatically calculated according to information such as road condition information and user moving speed rate, so that the calculation operation can be completed on the mobile phone APP, and the calculation can also be completed through the server platform. Specifically, map information including the current position of the target user and the position of the air conditioner is obtained; performing path planning by taking the current position of the target user as a starting point and the position of the air conditioner as a terminal point based on the map information to obtain corresponding path planning information; acquiring the moving speed of the target user to the position where the air conditioner is located; and predicting the first time required by the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner according to the path planning information and the moving speed. Alternatively, the route can be planned through the existing map software, and the time required for reaching the position of the air conditioner can be predicted according to the current moving speed of the target user.

The map information may specifically include road condition information (e.g., information such as road congestion information, construction information, and restrictions), road information (e.g., road location, start point, end point), and route information. The method comprises the steps of obtaining position information of a current position of a target user and position information of a position of an air conditioner, planning a path with the current position of the target user as a starting point and the position of the air conditioner as an end point according to map information, the position information of the current position of the target user and the position information of the position of the air conditioner, planning a shortest distance S from the current position of the user to the position of the air conditioner by integrating road condition information, obtaining a moving speed of the target user to the position of the air conditioner, for example, obtaining an average moving speed within t0 time (for example, 5min) when the user approaches the position of the air conditioner, as the moving speed of the target user to the position of the air conditioner, and estimating time t which is required by the target user to reach the position of the air conditioner to be S/v according to the shortest distance S and the moving speed v.

The obtaining unit 120 is configured to obtain a second time required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature.

In a specific embodiment, under the condition that the cold loss or the heat loss is not considered, the refrigerating or heating capacity qm and the energy efficiency E in unit time under different operation parameters are obtained, according to the refrigerating capacity qm and the energy efficiency E in unit time under different operation parameters, the second time and the air conditioning power w required by adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature (refrigerating and cooling, heating and warming) under the corresponding parameters are obtained through calculation, and then the total power, namely the total power consumption, is obtained through calculation according to the calculated second time required by adjusting the temperature of the room to the set temperature.

Taking air-conditioning refrigeration as an example, assuming that a temperature drop value for lowering the room temperature to a set temperature is Δ t, the required refrigeration amount is Qm-cm Δ t. The refrigerating capacity qm of the air conditioner per unit time is mainly related to the current indoor temperature T_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the rotating speed R of the internal fan are related, and a relational expression qm-F (T) can be established through data fitting_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}F, R) (it should be understood that there is a relationship with the rotation speed of the external fan, the opening degree of the throttle device, the outdoor humidity, etc., and that only the key variation values are listed for data fitting for convenient calculation, and the relationship may be a linear relationship), and the indoor temperature T may be established through experiments_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table of the compressor running frequency F, the rotating speed R of the internal fan and the refrigerating capacity qm in unit time is searched for different indoor temperatures T by a table look-up method_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the refrigerating capacity qm per unit time at the rotating speed R of the internal fan are determined according to the indoor temperature T_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the rotating speed R of the internal fan can predict the refrigerating capacity qm of the air conditioner in unit time.

Specifically, taking the operation cooling mode as an example, the temperature drop effect of the room is related to the air conditioner and the room environment, in addition to the output capacity of the air conditioner and the size of the room space, for example, the area size of the glass door and window, whether the sun is directly shining, the wall material and the like exist, and the loss of the cooling capacity of the room is related to the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the room, so dynamic measurement and estimation are needed, a part of the cooling capacity output by the air conditioner leaks to the outside of the room through the door and window gap, and the rest part is used for cooling the room, including the walls, furniture and other objects in the room, and the speed of cooling the air is faster than that of cooling other objects, and the part used for cooling the air can be calculated by the formula Q1 ═ cm Δ T (where c is the specific heat capacity of the air, m is the air quality, and Δ T is the temperature drop value), and: q2 is Qm-Q1, (Qm is the output cooling capacity of the air conditioner at delta T time, and the cooling capacity Qm at unit time is Qm/delta T), that is, the cooling capacity loss rate Q2 is Q2/delta T (the unit time loss cooling capacity), the value is not a fixed value, the influence factors are more, the cooling capacity loss can be related to the key factors, that is, Q2 is f (T) and the cooling capacity loss is f (T)_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}) Wherein, T_{Inner part}Indicating the room temperature, T_{Outer cover}The outdoor temperature is represented by the detected value Q2/. DELTA.T and the predicted value f (T)_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}) The functional relationship of the estimated equation f can be determined and used to predict Q2 ═ f (T)_{Inner part}，T_{Outer cover}Δ T); or establishing the room temperature T by experiment_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table with the cold loss rate q2 is used for searching different indoor temperatures T by a table look-up method_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The cold loss rate q 2.

The energy efficiency of an air conditioner varies with the operating parameters of the air conditioner, e.g. when the frequency F decreases, the power decreases and the efficiency increases within a certain range, but when the frequency is below a certain value, because of thisThe capacity output reduction amplitude is larger than the power reduction amplitude, the energy efficiency can be reduced, the rotating speed R also has larger influence on the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, the air volume increase can strengthen the heat exchange of the indoor unit and improve the energy efficiency within a certain range, and therefore, an energy efficiency function E ═ f (T ═ f) can be established_{Inner part}，ψ_{Inner part}，T_{Inner part}F, R); the indoor temperature T can also be established through experiments_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The corresponding relation table of the compressor running frequency F, the rotating speed R of the internal fan and the energy efficiency E of the air conditioner is used for searching different indoor temperatures T through a table look-up method_{Inner part}Indoor humidity psi_{Inner part}Outdoor temperature T_{Outer cover}The running frequency F of the compressor and the energy efficiency E under the rotating speed R of the internal fan.

The control unit 130 is configured to determine whether to turn on the air conditioner according to the acquired first time and the acquired second time.

Specifically, after the first time T1 when the target user arrives at the location of the air conditioner is predicted, the second time T2 ═ f (Q1, Q2, qm) and the total power consumption W ═ f (E, T2) required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature using various different operation parameters are calculated, and the shortest time T2min required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature and the time T2be required to minimize the power consumption required to adjust the temperature of the room to the set temperature are obtained. And when the shortest time T2min is less than T1-T3, taking the time T2be when the total power consumption is the minimum Wmin as the air conditioner starting time (the time value range is (T2min, T1-T3)), namely when T1 is less than or equal to T2be + T3, starting the air conditioner according to the operation parameters determined by the power consumption Wmin.

Since the time (first time) for the user to return home is dynamically changed, the first time required for the target user to reach the position where the air conditioner is located needs to be predicted again at intervals, the second time required for adjusting the temperature of the room where the target user is located to the set temperature needs to be obtained again, and whether the air conditioner is started or not is determined again according to the obtained first time and second time.

For example, if the first preset time T5 is determined to not satisfy the power-on condition after updating, the shutdown operation needs to be performed after the time difference is more than T5 (e.g., 10 min).

Optionally, the control unit 130 is further configured to: after the air conditioner is started, when the first time required by the prediction unit for predicting that the target user reaches the position of the air conditioner is less than or equal to second preset time, the air conditioner is controlled to be switched to a normal operation mode. For example, the second preset time is T6, and when T1 ≦ T6 (e.g., 1min), it is determined that the user has arrived at home, and the air conditioner is switched to the normal automatic cooling mode (including at least the adjustment of the rotation speed of the internal fan in the low noise mode) to control and operate the air conditioner.
