Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the invention, as detailed in the appended claims.
Example 1
In a preferred embodiment 1 of the present invention, there is provided an air conditioning control method which can be directly applied to various air conditioning units having a multi-cylinder compressor. In particular, fig. 1 shows an alternative flow chart of the method, which, as shown in fig. 1, comprises the following steps S102-S106:
s102: detecting whether the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner;
s104: when the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the current capacity requirement, determining the first cylinder number of the multi-cylinder compressor meeting the current capacity requirement;
s106: and determining a second cylinder number corresponding to the optimal energy efficiency in the first cylinder number, and controlling the operation of the multi-cylinder compressor according to the second cylinder number.
In the above embodiment, in order to solve the problem that the energy efficiency of the multi-cylinder compressor is difficult to maintain in the optimal state, an air conditioner control method is provided, where when the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the current capacity requirement, a first number of cylinders of the multi-cylinder compressor meeting the current capacity requirement is determined, a second number of cylinders corresponding to the optimal energy efficiency is determined in the first number of cylinders, and the operation of the multi-cylinder compressor is controlled according to the second number of cylinders. In the mode, the number of the operating cylinders of the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the requirement of the unit, the multi-cylinder compressor can operate at the optimal energy efficiency point when the multi-cylinder compressor operates at partial load, and the energy efficiency of the air conditioner is effectively improved.
Whether the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner or not is detected, and the method comprises the following steps: acquiring the operation capacity range of the multi-cylinder compressor corresponding to each cylinder number; determining the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner; judging whether the current capacity requirement is within the operation capacity range corresponding to each cylinder number; if so, determining that the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner; otherwise, determining that the multi-cylinder compressor cannot meet the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner. The process firstly determines whether the multi-cylinder compressor can meet the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner, and when the current capacity requirement can be met, the next step of determining the optimal operation cylinder number, namely the second cylinder number, is carried out. Particularly, for the condition that the multi-cylinder compressor cannot meet the current capacity requirement, judging whether the current capacity requirement is too small or whether the current capacity requirement is too large; if the pressure is too small, controlling the single cylinder operation of the multi-cylinder compressor; and if the maximum cylinder number is too large, controlling the multi-cylinder compressor to operate according to the maximum cylinder number.
The method for determining the current capacity requirement of the air conditioner comprises the following steps: acquiring the capacity requirement of the started internal machine; and detecting a difference value between the set temperature of the air conditioner and the current environment temperature, and correcting the capacity requirement of the started internal machine according to the difference value to be used as the current capacity requirement. Correcting the capacity requirement of the started internal machine according to the difference value, wherein the correction comprises the following steps: determining a corresponding correction coefficient according to the difference; and calculating the product of the correction coefficient and the capability requirement of the started internal machine as the current capability requirement. For example, for a multi-split product, an outer unit is a capacity 16kw unit, an inner unit is collocated with a 4.0kw +5.0kw +7.1kw unit, an on-off inner unit is 4.0kw +5.0kw, the difference between the set temperature and the ambient temperature is 10 ℃, and the correction coefficient is 1.2 (if the difference between the set temperature and the ambient temperature is less than 5 ℃, the correction coefficient is 0.8, if the difference between 5 ℃ and 8 ℃ is less than 8 ℃, the correction coefficient is 1, the difference is more than 8 ℃, and the correction coefficient is 1.2), the capacity requirement of the outer unit is (4.0+5.0) × 1.2 ═ 10.8 kw.
After determining the current capacity demand, determining a first number of cylinders of the multi-cylinder compressor that meet the current capacity demand, comprising: and determining the number of cylinders including the current capacity requirement in the operation capacity range corresponding to each cylinder number as a first cylinder number.
Then, determining a second cylinder number corresponding to the optimal energy efficiency in the first cylinder number specifically includes: determining the operating frequency of each cylinder number in the first cylinder number, which can meet the current capacity requirement; judging whether the operating frequency has the frequency with the optimal energy efficiency; if yes, determining the number of cylinders corresponding to the frequency with the best energy efficiency as a second number of cylinders; and if not, determining that the maximum cylinder number in the first cylinder number is the second cylinder number. The multi-cylinder compressor runs according to a certain running frequency when running with different cylinder numbers so as to meet the current capacity requirement. However, this frequency is not necessarily the frequency with the best energy efficiency, and therefore, if there is a frequency with the best energy efficiency, the number of cylinders corresponding to this frequency is determined as the second number of cylinders, and if there is no frequency with the best energy efficiency, the maximum number of cylinders among the first number of cylinders is determined as the second number of cylinders, and further, the multi-cylinder compressor is operated at a low frequency, thereby improving the energy efficiency.
When the multi-cylinder compressor cannot meet the current capacity requirement, judging whether the current capacity requirement is too small or not or whether the current capacity requirement is too large; if the pressure is too small, controlling the single cylinder operation of the multi-cylinder compressor; and if the maximum cylinder number is too large, controlling the multi-cylinder compressor to operate according to the maximum cylinder number. The above solution enables to meet the current capacity requirements as best as possible. For single-cylinder operation of the multi-cylinder compressor, if the output capacity of the multi-cylinder compressor is still larger than the current operation capacity, the energy efficiency is improved by adjusting the operation frequency of the multi-cylinder compressor, mainly in a mode of reducing the frequency.
After controlling the operation of the multi-cylinder compressor according to the second cylinder number, the method further comprises the following steps: detecting the variable quantity of the current environment temperature; and correcting the current capacity requirement according to the variable quantity. For example, when the difference between the ambient temperature and the set temperature decreases by a certain amount, the current capacity requirement is multiplied by a corresponding coefficient.
The scheme mainly considers the problem that the cylinder number and the frequency of the multi-cylinder compressor meet the current capacity requirement, and in addition, the invention also considers the reliability problem of the multi-cylinder compressor. After determining the first cylinder number of the multi-cylinder compressor meeting the current capacity requirement, the method further comprises the following steps: determining whether the reliability requirement is met when the multi-cylinder compressor operates according to the first cylinder number; if so, determining the number of cylinders of the multi-cylinder compressor meeting the reliability requirement as a first number of cylinders, and then triggering to determine a second number of cylinders corresponding to the optimal energy efficiency in the first number of cylinders; otherwise, controlling the single-cylinder operation of the multi-cylinder compressor. The operation frequency of the multi-cylinder compressor with single-cylinder operation can be improved, and the reliability of the multi-cylinder compressor can be ensured although the energy efficiency is not optimal.
Wherein, confirm whether multi-cylinder compressor satisfies the reliability demand when according to the operation of first jar number, include: detecting operation parameters when the multi-cylinder compressor operates according to a first cylinder number; wherein the operating parameters include at least one of: exhaust temperature, exhaust superheat degree, suction temperature and suction superheat degree; judging whether the operation parameters exceed corresponding preset values or not; if so, determining that the reliability requirement cannot be met; otherwise, it is determined that the reliability requirement can be met.
