Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a control method for self-cleaning of an air conditioner, including the following steps:
and S101, acquiring the ambient temperature between a heat exchanger and a fan of the air conditioner under the condition that the air conditioner stably operates.
In practical application, when the environmental temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan is used for judging the dust accumulation degree of the heat exchanger, only the environmental temperature obtained when the air conditioner operates stably is judged, and the operation mode when the air conditioner operates stably can be a high-wind-gear refrigeration operation mode, a medium-wind-gear refrigeration operation mode or a low-wind-gear refrigeration operation mode. Since the ambient temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan of the air conditioner is greatly affected by the external environment when the air conditioner is in an unstable operation (for example, the air conditioner is in a frequency release state), the ambient temperature at this time cannot accurately reflect the dust accumulation degree of the heat exchanger.
Optionally, the heat exchanger comprises an indoor heat exchanger, and the fan comprises a cross-flow fan arranged in the indoor unit of the air conditioner; obtaining an ambient temperature between a heat exchanger and a fan of an air conditioner, comprising: obtaining a first ambient temperature of a first temperature detection point between the indoor heat exchanger and the cross-flow fan; the first temperature detection point is located in the middle of the casing of the cross-flow fan and is located in the middle between the casing of the cross-flow fan and the indoor heat exchanger; the first ambient temperature is determined to be the ambient temperature.
Considering that the temperature at the air outlet of the cross flow fan is easily influenced by the external environment temperature, the temperature between aluminum foils of the indoor heat exchanger cannot accurately reflect the integral dust accumulation degree of the indoor heat exchanger, the air volume at the casing of the cross flow fan is small, and the influence of blowing on the temperature at the casing is small, so that the first temperature detection point is arranged at the middle position of the casing of the cross flow fan and the middle position between the casing of the cross flow fan and the indoor heat exchanger, and the detected environment temperature is not easily influenced by the external environment and can more accurately reflect the integral dust accumulation degree of the indoor heat exchanger.
Optionally, the heat exchanger comprises an outdoor heat exchanger, and the fan comprises an axial flow fan arranged on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner; obtaining an ambient temperature between a heat exchanger and a fan of an air conditioner, comprising: obtaining a second ambient temperature of a second temperature detection point between the outdoor heat exchanger and the axial flow fan; the second temperature detection point is positioned on the surface of a fin of the outdoor heat exchanger; obtaining a third ambient temperature of a third temperature detection point between the outdoor heat exchanger and the axial flow fan; the third temperature detection point is positioned at the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan; obtaining a fourth ambient temperature of a fourth temperature detection point between the outdoor heat exchanger and the axial flow fan; the fourth temperature detection point is positioned in the middle between the surface of the fin of the outdoor heat exchanger and the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan; calculating to obtain the weighted environment temperature of the second environment temperature, the third environment temperature and the fourth environment temperature; determining the weighted ambient temperature as the ambient temperature.
Because the ambient temperature between the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner and the fan is greatly influenced by the external environment, a plurality of temperature detection points are selected, and the temperature between the outdoor heat exchanger and the axial flow fan is comprehensively determined through the temperatures detected by the temperature detection points. Considering that dust accumulation points of the outdoor heat exchanger are accumulated in the fins, the air volume at the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan is small, and the influence of air blowing on the temperature at the rotating shaft is small, therefore, the three temperature detection points are respectively arranged on the surfaces of the fins of the outdoor heat exchanger, the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan and the middle position between the surfaces of the fins of the outdoor heat exchanger and the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan, so that the three temperature detection points are used for detecting and obtaining the weight environment temperature, the weight environment temperature is directly controlled by the dust accumulation degree of the outdoor heat exchanger, and the dust accumulation degree of the whole outdoor heat exchanger can be more accurately reflected.
Optionally, calculating the weighted ambient temperature of the second ambient temperature, the third ambient temperature, and the fourth ambient temperature includes:
Figure BDA0002927436720000041
wherein T is the weight ambient temperature,
Figure BDA0002927436720000042
is a second ambient temperature weight coefficient, T 2 Is at a second ambient temperature and is,
Figure BDA0002927436720000043
is a third ambient temperature weight coefficient, T 3 Is the temperature of the third environment, and,
Figure BDA0002927436720000044
is the fourth ambient temperature weight coefficient, T 4 Is the fourth ambient temperature.
In the practical application of the method, the air conditioner,

and is

Outdoor heat exchangeThe temperature of the middle position between the surface of the fin of the device and the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan can accurately reflect the dust accumulation degree of the outdoor heat exchanger, the temperature fluctuation range is relatively small, and the temperature value is relatively stable; the air quantity at the rotating shaft of the axial flow fan is minimum, the influence of blowing is minimum, and the temperature value is most stable; and the temperature at the fin surface of the outdoor heat exchanger can reflect the degree of dust accumulation of the outdoor heat exchanger. Therefore, the weighting coefficients of the second environment temperature, the third environment temperature and the fourth environment temperature are set according to the above manner, and the dust accumulation degree of the whole outdoor heat exchanger can be more accurately reflected by calculating and obtaining the weighting environment temperature.
And S102, controlling the air conditioner to execute self-cleaning operation according to the proportional relation between the environment temperature and the preset temperature.
Optionally, controlling the air conditioner to perform a self-cleaning operation according to a proportional relationship between the ambient temperature and a preset temperature, including: calculating the ratio of the ambient temperature to the preset temperature; under the condition that the ratio is in a first preset ratio range, controlling the air conditioner to immediately execute self-cleaning operation; and prompting self-cleaning information under the condition that the ratio is in a second preset ratio range, and executing self-cleaning operation based on the received self-cleaning control instruction.
The preset temperature may be a temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan detected under the same stable operation condition after the heat exchanger of the air conditioner completes one self-cleaning, for example, a temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan detected by the air conditioner in a high-wind-gear cooling operation mode, a medium-wind-gear cooling operation mode or a low-wind-gear cooling operation mode. The first preset ratio range may be [0, 50% ], such as 0, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and the second preset ratio range may be (50%, 80% ], such as 60%, 70%, 80%. when the ratio of the ambient temperature to the preset temperature is in the first preset ratio range, it indicates that there is an excessive accumulation of dust on the heat exchanger, and immediately performs the self-cleaning operation to avoid a great influence on the normal heat exchange of the air conditioner and the user's life health, and when the ratio of the ambient temperature to the preset temperature is in the second preset ratio range, it indicates that there is a dust accumulation on the heat exchanger (but it does not threaten the normal heat exchange of the air conditioner and the user's life health), sends the self-cleaning prompt message, and performs the self-cleaning operation after receiving the self-cleaning control command sent by the user based on the self-cleaning prompt message, so as to avoid the air conditioner from disturbing the normal cooling or heating operation of the air conditioner due to the self-cleaning operation, thereby improving the use experience of the user.
In some practical applications, an indicator light is arranged on a filter screen of the air conditioner and used for prompting the dust deposition condition of the heat exchanger. When the ratio of the ambient temperature to the preset temperature is in a first preset ratio range, the indicator lamp flashes in red to prompt a user that the heat exchanger is seriously dusted; when the ratio of the ambient temperature to the preset temperature is in a second preset ratio range, the indicator light flickers in yellow to prompt a user that dust is accumulated on the heat exchanger; otherwise, the indicator light is green and always on, and the user is prompted that no dust is accumulated in the heat exchanger. Thus, the dust deposition condition of the heat exchanger is better known to a user.
By adopting the control method for self-cleaning of the air conditioner, when the fan of the air conditioner rotates, if the heat exchanger does not accumulate dust, the heat exchanger can well exchange heat with an external environment, the environmental temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan is relatively high, and when the heat exchanger accumulates more dust, the heat exchanger cannot well exchange heat with the external environment, and the environmental temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan is relatively low, so that the environmental temperature between the heat exchanger and the fan of the air conditioner can be obtained under the condition that the air conditioner stably runs, and the air conditioner is controlled to execute self-cleaning operation according to the proportional relation between the environmental temperature and the preset temperature, so that the proper time for starting the self-cleaning of the air conditioner can be better determined, the good heating or refrigerating regulation of the air conditioner is ensured, and the use experience of a user is improved.
In some embodiments, the control method for self-cleaning of the air conditioner further includes determining a stable operation of the air conditioner as follows: controlling the air conditioner to operate according to a preset operation mode; after the air conditioner operates for a preset time according to a preset operation mode, detecting temperature fluctuation on the surface of the heat exchanger; and determining the stable operation of the air conditioner under the condition that the temperature fluctuation is smaller than a preset fluctuation threshold value.
The preset operation mode is an operation mode in which the air conditioner can stably operate, and in the operation mode, the ambient temperature between the heater and the fan is less influenced by the external environment, for example, the preset operation mode may be a high-wind-gear refrigeration operation mode, a medium-wind-gear refrigeration operation mode or a low-wind-gear refrigeration operation mode. The preset time period is a time period from the start of heating or cooling to the time when the ambient temperature reaches the target temperature under normal conditions, and may be, for example, 10min to 20min (minutes). And after the air conditioner operates for a preset time according to a preset operation mode, detecting the temperature fluctuation of the surface of the heat exchanger, and determining the stable operation of the air conditioner under the condition that the temperature fluctuation is smaller than a preset fluctuation threshold value. The preset fluctuation threshold may be set to a value in the range of [2 ℃ C., 5 ℃ C ], for example, 2 ℃ C. (centigrade), 3 ℃ C., 4 ℃ C., 5 ℃ C.
In some embodiments, the control method for self-cleaning of the air conditioner further comprises the steps of controlling the air conditioner to obtain the ambient temperature change rate between the heat exchanger and the fan within a preset time period after the air conditioner is started to operate after the air conditioner completes one self-cleaning operation; and controlling whether the air conditioner executes the self-cleaning operation again or not according to the magnitude relation between the ambient temperature change rate and the preset temperature change rate.
Here, the preset temperature change rate may be an ambient temperature change rate between the heat exchanger and the fan within a preset time period (for example, 5 to 10min after starting) after the start operation of the air conditioner is detected when it is determined that the heat exchanger has no dust accumulation in the early stage test process. In a preset time period after the air conditioner is started and operated, due to the fact that dust of the heat exchanger is accumulated to influence the heat exchange coefficient of the heat exchanger, the ambient temperature change rate between the heat exchanger and the fan when dust accumulation exists in the air conditioner heat exchanger is smaller than the ambient temperature change rate between the heat exchanger and the fan when no dust accumulation exists in the air conditioner heat exchanger. Therefore, whether the air conditioner executes the self-cleaning operation again is controlled according to the size relation between the environmental temperature change rate and the preset temperature change rate, and incomplete cleaning of the self-cleaning operation is avoided.
Optionally, controlling whether the air conditioner performs the self-cleaning operation again according to a magnitude relation between the ambient temperature change rate and a preset temperature change rate, including: controlling the air conditioner to execute the self-cleaning operation again under the condition that the ambient temperature change rate is smaller than the preset temperature change rate; and controlling the air conditioner to finish the self-cleaning operation under the condition that the ambient temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the preset temperature change rate.
When the environmental temperature change rate is smaller than the preset temperature change rate, indicating that the dust accumulation phenomenon still exists in the heat exchanger, and controlling the air conditioner to execute self-cleaning operation again, wherein the self-cleaning operation is incomplete at this time; when the ambient temperature change rate is greater than or equal to the preset temperature change rate, the dust accumulation phenomenon of the heat exchanger is indicated to be temporarily absent, the self-cleaning operation is relatively thorough, and the air conditioner is controlled to finish the self-cleaning operation. Thus, the degree of cleaning of the air conditioner self-cleaning operation can be improved.
