Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a flow chart of a method for determining the blockage of a return air inlet according to the present embodiment. The air return port blockage judging method is applied to the air conditioner, automatic judgment is carried out through self operation parameters of the air conditioner, blockage of the air return port of the compressor of the air conditioner is accurately identified, and therefore accurate maintenance directions can be timely provided for maintenance personnel, and maintenance cost is saved. The method for judging the blockage of the return air port provided by the embodiment comprises the following steps:
and step S101, controlling the air conditioner to operate in a heating mode.
In this embodiment, when receiving a detection instruction sent by a user, a controller of the air conditioner controls the air conditioner to start and operate in a heating mode, and continues to execute subsequent steps. In other embodiments, it may also be set that when the air conditioner operates in the heating mode, the controller automatically performs the subsequent steps to realize the fully automatic detection.
Further, the method for judging the blockage of the return air port can further comprise the following steps:
and step S102, acquiring opening data of the heating electronic expansion valve, the suction temperature of the compressor, the outlet temperature of the outdoor unit heat exchanger and the environment temperature of the outdoor unit in real time.
After controlling the air conditioner to operate in a heating mode, the controller acquires opening data of the heating electronic expansion valve, suction temperature of the compressor, outlet temperature of the outer unit heat exchanger and environment temperature of the outer unit in real time. In the embodiment, the controller is electrically connected with the heating electronic expansion valve and directly reads the opening data of the heating electronic expansion valve; the controller is electrically connected with a temperature sensor arranged at an air suction port of the compressor, and receives detection data fed back by the temperature sensor to obtain air suction temperature; the controller is electrically connected with a temperature sensor arranged at the outlet of the outer machine heat exchanger, and receives detection data fed back by the temperature sensor to obtain outlet temperature; the controller is electrically connected with a temperature sensor arranged in the environment where the outdoor unit is located, and receives detection data fed back by the temperature sensor to obtain the environment temperature.
Further, the method for judging the blockage of the return air port can further comprise the following steps:
and step S103, judging whether the refrigerant accumulation occurs in the external unit or not according to the opening data, the air suction temperature, the outlet temperature and the environment temperature.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a sub-step flow of step S103, wherein step S103 includes:
and step S1031, in a preset time period, the opening data is smaller than or equal to a first preset value, the difference value between the suction temperature and the saturation temperature corresponding to the current low-pressure is smaller than a second preset value, the difference value between the outlet temperature and the saturation temperature is smaller than a third preset value, the difference value between the suction temperature and the outlet temperature is smaller than a fourth preset value, and the difference value between the ambient temperature and the saturation temperature is smaller than a fifth preset value, the occurrence of refrigerant accumulation of the outdoor unit is judged.
The setting range of the first preset value is 0pls to 120pls, preferably 60pls in this embodiment; the setting range of the second preset value is-3 ℃ to 3 ℃, and 0 ℃ is preferred in the embodiment; the setting range of the third preset value is-3 ℃ to 3 ℃, and 0 ℃ is preferred in the embodiment; the setting range of the fourth preset value is-2 ℃ to 3 ℃, and the 2 ℃ is preferred in the embodiment; the fifth preset value is set to a range of 0 ℃ to 8 ℃, and preferably 5 ℃ in the present embodiment.
Therefore, if the opening data of the heating expansion valve is less than or equal to 60pls within the preset time period, the difference between the suction temperature and the saturation temperature corresponding to the current low-pressure is less than 0 ℃, the difference between the outlet temperature and the saturation temperature is less than 0 ℃, the difference between the suction temperature and the outlet temperature is less than 2 ℃, and the difference between the ambient temperature and the saturation temperature is less than 5 ℃, it is determined that the refrigerant accumulation occurs in the outdoor unit.
In the heating mode, the air suction port of the compressor and the outlet of the outer machine heat exchanger are both positioned on the low-pressure side, and under the normal condition, the heating electronic expansion valve can control the circulation quantity of the outer machine refrigerant by adjusting the opening degree, so that the liquid return on the low-pressure side is prevented. When the opening degree of the heating expansion valve is smaller than or equal to the first preset value of 60pls, the suction superheat degree (the difference between the suction temperature and the saturation temperature) is still small, the superheat degree (the difference between the outlet temperature and the saturation temperature) is still small, and the temperature difference between the gas distribution inlet and the gas distribution outlet is small, so that a large amount of refrigerants are accumulated on the low-pressure side of the heat exchanger, the gas distribution and the like of the outdoor unit, and the occurrence of the refrigerant accumulation of the outdoor unit is judged.
With reference to fig. 1, the method for determining the blockage of the return air port may further include:
and step S104, under the condition that the outdoor unit is judged not to have refrigerant accumulation, the method starts from the step of acquiring opening data of the heating electronic expansion valve, the suction temperature of the compressor, the outlet temperature of the outdoor unit heat exchanger and the environment temperature of the outdoor unit in real time, and circulates the subsequent steps.
If the opening degree data, the intake air temperature, the outlet temperature, and the ambient temperature do not satisfy the determination condition in the above-described substep S1031, it is determined that no refrigerant accumulation occurs in the outdoor unit.
At this time, the opening data of the heating electronic expansion valve, the suction temperature of the compressor, the outlet temperature of the outer unit heat exchanger and the environment temperature of the outer unit are continuously obtained in real time and continuously judged.
Further, the method for judging the blockage of the return air port can further comprise the following steps:
in step S105, when it is determined that the external unit has a refrigerant accumulation, the discharge temperature and the operating current of the compressor are acquired.
The refrigerant accumulation of the external machine can be caused by two conditions, one is that the refrigerant cannot circulate in the external machine, and the other is that the refrigerant cannot evaporate in time. The specific situation also needs to be judged by the operation parameters of the compressor.
Further, the method for judging the blockage of the return air port can further comprise the following steps:
and step S106, judging whether the air return port of the compressor is blocked or not according to the exhaust temperature and the working current.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a block diagram illustrating a sub-step flow of step S106, wherein step S106 includes:
and a substep S1061, determining that the air return port of the compressor is blocked under the condition that the exhaust temperature is greater than a sixth preset value and the difference value between the working current and the normal current of the current frequency of the compressor is less than a seventh preset value.
The setting range of the sixth preset value is 110-130 ℃, and the preferred temperature of the embodiment is 120 ℃; the setting range of the seventh preset value is 0A to 2A, and 1A is preferable in the present embodiment.
Therefore, when the refrigerant accumulation occurs in the external machine, the exhaust temperature of the compressor is more than 120 ℃, and the difference value between the working current of the compressor and the normal current of the current frequency of the compressor is less than 1A, the blockage of the air return port of the compressor is judged. If the refrigerant is not evaporated in time, the discharge temperature of the compressor should not be too high, and therefore, the refrigerant cannot circulate. For the compressor, under different frequency and pressure conditions, a more stable current range exists. The normal working current indicates that the compressor is not worn, and the high exhaust temperature indicates that the refrigerant circulation quantity is small. The low-pressure side refrigerant is more, but the circulating refrigerant quantity of the compressor is less, and the return air port of the compressor is blocked by comprehensive judgment.
In practice, step S106 further includes the substeps of obtaining the operating frequency of the compressor and obtaining the normal current according to the operating frequency. In practical application, the numerical value of the normal current corresponding to the working frequency can be directly read by recording factory parameters of the compressor in advance.
With reference to fig. 1, the method for determining the blockage of the return air port may further include:
step S107, when it is determined that the back air port of the compressor is not blocked, starts with a step of determining whether the refrigerant accumulation occurs in the external unit based on the opening degree data, the suction temperature, the outlet temperature, and the ambient temperature, and circulates the subsequent steps.
If the exhaust temperature and the operating current do not satisfy the determination condition of the above sub-step S1061, it is determined that the back air port of the compressor is not blocked. In this case, the process returns to step S102, and continues to the subsequent steps to perform continuous detection determination.
Further, the method for judging the blockage of the return air port can further comprise the following steps:
and S108, under the condition that the air return port of the compressor is judged to be blocked for the first time, starting from the step of judging whether the outer unit generates the refrigerant accumulation according to the opening data, the suction temperature, the outlet temperature and the ambient temperature, circulating the subsequent steps until the air return port of the compressor is judged to be blocked for N times continuously, and controlling the air conditioner to stop.
In the continuous judgment process, when the air return port is judged to be blocked for the first time, the step returns to the step S102, and the subsequent steps are continued to carry out continuous detection judgment.
N is greater than or equal to 2, and in this embodiment, N is 3. Including judging that the return air port takes place to block up for the first time, under the condition that 3 continuous times judge that the return air port of compressor takes place to block up, control the air conditioner and shut down to control the air conditioner and send alarm signal, take place the return air port and block up the trouble in order to remind maintenance personal.
In summary, the method for determining whether the back air port is blocked according to the present embodiment automatically and accurately determines whether the back air port of the compressor is blocked through steps S101 to S108.
