Background
In the conventional air conditioner, if the position of the outdoor unit is higher than that of the indoor unit and is in a cooling mode, or if the position of the outdoor unit is lower than that of the indoor unit and is in a heating mode, in the oil return control process, a refrigerant in an air distribution pipe flows from the indoor unit to the outdoor unit, the refrigerant is in an upward flow and has a low flow rate, the amount of oil moving along with the refrigerant is small, oil return is likely to be insufficient, and the larger the difference between the position of the outdoor unit and the position of the indoor unit is, the less the amount of oil return is likely to be insufficient.
Also, in the case where the oil return amount may be further reduced, first, the cooling mode is turned on, the amount of oil discharged from the compressor is large, and the oil stays for a long time in an external low temperature environment; second, the temperature of the refrigerant in the air distribution pipe is low, the viscosity of the oil is high, and the oil is difficult to move under the conditions of low outdoor temperature or low indoor temperature.
Therefore, in the process of oil return control of the conventional air conditioner, oil is difficult to convey in both a cooling mode and a heating mode, so that the oil return amount is insufficient and the compressor is damaged.

Detailed Description
In the oil return control process of the existing air conditioner, the rotating speed of a compressor is a specified value or is controlled by the pressure born by a refrigerant (hereinafter, referred to as refrigerant pressure). However, in the cooling mode in which the outdoor unit is located higher than the indoor unit, or in the heating mode in which the outdoor unit is located lower than the indoor unit, the refrigerant flows upward, that is, the refrigerant flows from a lower position to a higher position, and the amount of oil moving with the refrigerant is small, and thus there is a possibility that the oil return is insufficient.
In the cooling mode, the refrigerant pressure becomes the suction pressure, and in the heating mode, the refrigerant pressure becomes the discharge pressure. In this way, when the rotational speed of the compressor is controlled by the suction pressure in the cooling mode in a low-temperature environment, the suction pressure decreases, the rotational speed of the compressor decreases, the refrigerant circulation amount also decreases, and oil return may be insufficient. When the heating mode is performed in a high-temperature environment and the rotation speed of the compressor is controlled by the exhaust pressure, the rotation speed of the compressor is reduced due to the increase of the exhaust pressure, the refrigerant circulation amount is also reduced, and the oil return shortage may occur.
In short, in the oil return control of the conventional air conditioner, it is not considered that the refrigerant flow rate varies depending on the refrigerant circulation amount and the refrigerant density in the air distribution pipe, and the refrigerant flow rate cannot be controlled with high accuracy, so that the oil return amount may be insufficient to damage the compressor in the above case.
The embodiment of the invention provides an oil return control method, which can prevent the insufficient oil return amount caused by the insufficient flow velocity of a refrigerant in oil return control by adjusting the rotating speed of a compressor.

According to the pipe diameter D of the gas distribution pipe and the density rho of the second refrigerant2And the mass flow M of the refrigerant, and calculating the actual refrigerant flow velocity V2
8. The oil return control method according to claim 1, wherein the actual refrigerant flow rate V2The calculation formula of (2) is as follows:
V2=M/(ρs*(π*D2/4))
wherein M is the refrigerant mass flow rate, rhosIs the refrigerant density.
9. An air conditioner, characterized in that the air conditioner comprises:
a memory (2) for storing the pipe diameter D of the air distribution pipe, the height difference delta H between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit and the target refrigerant flow velocity V1The corresponding relationship of (a);
a processor (3) for processing the gas distribution pipe according to the pipe diameter D of the gas distribution pipe and the density rho of the refrigerantsAnd the mass flow M of the refrigerant, and calculating the actual flow velocity V of the refrigerant2According to the target refrigerant flow velocity V1And the actual refrigerant flow velocity V2Adjusting the rotational speed V of the compressor3So that the actual refrigerant flow velocity V2The target refrigerant flow velocity V is achieved1The target refrigerant flow velocity V1The following formula is satisfied:
F=(ρs*V1/((ρos)*g*D))1/2
wherein F is a flow velocity calculation parameter and is determined according to Delta H, rhosIs the density of the refrigerant, ρoIs the oil density and g is the acceleration of gravity.
