[ basic operation principle of air conditioner ]
A refrigeration cycle of an air conditioner includes a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. The refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and supplies refrigerant to the air that has been conditioned and heat-exchanged.
The compressor compresses a refrigerant gas in a high-temperature and high-pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.
The expansion valve expands the liquid-phase refrigerant in a high-temperature and high-pressure state condensed in the condenser into a low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant.
The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor.
The evaporator can achieve a cooling effect by heat-exchanging with a material to be cooled using latent heat of evaporation of a refrigerant. The air conditioner can adjust the temperature of the indoor space throughout the cycle.
The outdoor unit of an air conditioner refers to a portion including a compressor of a refrigeration cycle and includes an outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of an air conditioner includes an indoor heat exchanger, and an expansion valve may be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit of an air conditioner.
The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger serve as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the air conditioner is used as a heater for a heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the air conditioner is used as a cooler for a cooling mode.
Central air-conditioning control system
The central air-conditioning control system comprises at least one outdoor unit, at least one indoor unit, at least one controller and a configuration module.
Referring to fig. 1, which shows only one outdoor unit, the outdoor unit is communicatively connected to at least one indoor unit (indoor unit 1, indoor unit 2, indoor unit n (n ≧ 1)) through a communication bus.
The outdoor unit and the indoor unit form an air conditioning system, and the controller is used for controlling the air conditioning system.
Referring to fig. 1, at least one controller that has been accessed is denoted as: the controller comprises a controller 1, a controller 2 and a controller n (n is more than or equal to 1), wherein the controllers are respectively connected to a communication bus.
The controllers can communicate with each other, i.e., the controllers can receive communication messages of other controllers.
When the new controller n +1 is newly accessed to the communication bus, how to acquire the address of the new controller n +1 is a problem to be solved.
The configuration module is used for determining a controller address list by sending an address acquisition instruction A to the communication bus and receiving and analyzing an instruction fed back by the controller when a new controller n +1 is accessed to the communication bus.
The configuration module is further configured to configure an address of the new controller n +1 according to the controller address list.
It should be noted that the address fetch instruction a includes a preset address, for example, the address information of the preset address is FF, and has a flag bit for identifying that the issued instruction is an address fetch instruction.
Thus, when the controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) receives the address acquisition instruction A, the address information sent by the instruction is FF, and the instruction is the instruction for acquiring the address.
The command of controller feedback received by the new controller n +1 as described above includes two cases: 1. each controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) feeds back an instruction to the new controller n + 1; 2. one controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) feeds back an instruction to the new controller n + 1.
According to the above two cases, the following description will be made separately.
Configuring the Address I of a New controller
Referring to FIG. 2, a flow chart is shown for controller i (1 ≦ i ≦ n) communicating with new controller n +1 for determining the address of new controller n + 1.
Each controller i (1. ltoreq. i.ltoreq.n) knows its own address, but does not know the controller address list formed by the controller addresses of each controller i (1. ltoreq. i.ltoreq.n).
Therefore, each controller i needs to communicate with the new controller n +1 separately.
S21: the new controller n +1 has access to the communication bus.
S22: the new controller n +1 sends an address fetch instruction a to the communication bus.
The address fetch instruction A is an instruction having a predetermined address and flag bits as described above.
S23: and judging whether at least one controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) exists on the communication bus, if so, proceeding to S24, and if not, configuring the address of a new controller n + 1.
It should be noted that at least one existing controller should be previously accessed to the communication bus, that is, the newly accessed controller is not the controller that is accessed to the first communication bus.
If the new controller is the controller on the first access communication bus, its address can be freely allocated under the condition of meeting the requirement, and at this time, the problem of address conflict with other existing controllers is not considered.
S24: and at least one controller receives the address acquisition instruction A through the communication bus in sequence and feeds back an instruction B to the communication bus.
At least one controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) sends an instruction B to the communication bus, and the instruction B comprises the controller address of the controller i.
For example, the controller 1 receives the address acquisition instruction a, and feeds back an instruction B including a controller address of the controller 1 to the communication bus.
The controller 2 receives the address acquisition instruction a and feeds back an instruction B containing a controller address of the controller 2 to the communication bus.
It should be noted that at least one controller i (i is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) needs to be online, so that the address of the new controller n +1 can be configured reliably, and address conflict is avoided.
S25: and the new controller n +1 receives the instruction B and analyzes the instruction B to form a controller address list table 1.
For example, after receiving the command B, the new controller n +1 parses the command B, obtains the controller address of the controller 1, and stores the controller address.
And the new controller n +2 analyzes the command B after receiving the command B, and acquires and stores the controller address of the controller 2.
The controller addresses of each controller i are sequentially acquired and stored to form a controller address list table 1.
S26: and after judging that the new controller n +1 searches all the controllers 1-n, configuring the address of the new controller n +1 according to the controller address list table 1.
Typically, the controller addresses of the existing controllers are consecutive, so that addresses can be consecutively allocated to the new controller n + 1.
If the address of the controller m (1 is more than or equal to m and less than n) and the address of the controller m +1 are discontinuous, an address between the address of the controller m (1 is more than or equal to m and less than n) and the address of the controller m +1 can be configured for the new controller n +1, and address waste is avoided.
Assume that the timeout time for receiving the feedback command of each controller is set to T by the new controller n +1, the upper limit number of the controllers is M, and the maximum timeout time is T × M, that is, the accessed controller n +1 waits for T × M.
After the time is longer than or equal to T × M, all the controllers on the communication bus are considered to have been searched, and then the address of the new controller n +1 may be configured according to the controller address list table 1.
The central air-conditioning control system can realize the automatic configuration of the n +1 address of the new controller.
The address configuration method needs to wait for timeout T × M to determine that the controller search is completed, the address configuration time is long, and there may be a problem that the search is not completed but is timeout, so that the search is incomplete; and all controllers 1-n need to be ensured to be on-line.
Configuring the Address II of the New controller
To solve the above technical problem, see FIG. 3, which shows a flow chart of a controller i (1 ≦ i ≦ n) communicating with a new controller n +1 for determining the address of the new controller n +1, and acknowledging with controllers 1-n (see dashed boxes in FIG. 3).
S31: a new controller n +1 is accessed.
S32: the new controller n +1 sends an address fetch instruction a to the communication bus.
The address fetch instruction A is an instruction having a predetermined address and flag bits as described above.
S33: and judging whether at least one controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) exists on the communication bus, if so, proceeding to S34, and if not, configuring the address of a new controller n + 1.
S34: one of the at least one controller receives the address acquisition instruction A through the communication bus and feeds back an instruction B' to the communication bus.
For example, the controller 1 receives the address obtaining command A and feeds back a command B' including controller addresses of the controllers 1-n to the communication bus.
The controller 2 receives the address acquisition instruction A and feeds back an instruction B' including controller addresses of the controllers 1-n to the communication bus.
Here, the command B' includes a controller address list table1 formed by the controller addresses of each controller i (1. ltoreq. i.ltoreq.n).
The determining module is used for determining which controller of the at least one controller feeds back the instruction B 'to the communication bus, namely, determining the priority of the controller which feeds back the instruction B' to the communication bus.
In the present application, the determining module obtains the priority of the at least one controller of the feedback command B' by generating a random number.
First, a random number is generated by seeding with system time.
Secondly, the controller with the smallest random number is selected to feed back the command B' to the communication bus, i.e. the controller with the smallest random number is considered to have the highest priority.
The minimum random number represents that the system time is the earliest, and after the controller with the earliest time feeds back the instruction B ', other subsequent controllers do not feed back the instruction B' to the communication bus any more.
Of course, there are many ways to determine which controller feeds back the command B', for example, the priority order of each controller in at least one controller is preset, for example, the priority of the controllers in controllers 1-n decreases sequentially.
When any one of the controllers 1 to n receives the address obtaining instruction a sent by the new controller n +1, the fed-back instruction B' includes the controller address list table1 of the controller address of the controllers 1 to n, that is, each of the controllers 1 to n has the controller address list table1 as described above.
As follows, the controller address list table1 can be obtained only by the instruction transmission of the new controller n +1 and any one of the controllers 1 to n, so that the time for configuring the address of the new controller n +1 is saved; and no busy communication is caused on the communication bus.
It should be noted that at least one existing controller should be previously accessed to the communication bus, that is, the newly accessed controller is not the controller that is accessed to the first communication bus.
If the new controller is the controller on the first access communication bus, its address can be freely allocated under the condition of meeting the requirement, and at this time, the problem of address conflict with other existing controllers is not considered.
S35: and after receiving the instruction B ', the new controller n +1 analyzes the instruction B' to obtain a controller address list table 1.
For example, after receiving the instruction B' fed back by the controller 1, the new controller n +1 analyzes the instruction to obtain a controller address list table 1; or
And the new controller n +1 receives the instruction B 'fed back by the controller 2 and analyzes the instruction B', and a controller address list table1 is obtained.
S36: the address of the new controller n +1 is configured according to the controller address list table 1.
The controller addresses in the controller address list table1 of the existing controller are consecutive, so that addresses can be consecutively allocated to the new controller n + 1.
If the addresses in the controller address list table1 are not consecutive, for example, the address of the controller m (1 ≦ m < n) and the address of the controller m +1 are not consecutive, the new controller n +1 may be configured with the address between the address of the controller m (1 ≦ m < n) and the address of the controller m +1, so as to avoid address waste and implement reasonable address allocation.
Updating address lists
After the configuration of the address of the new controller n +1 is completed, there may be some controllers that are not online (e.g., powered down) and that require an online validation of controllers 1-n for reliable control.
The central air-conditioning control system further comprises an updating module (not shown) for updating the controller address lists of the on-line controller and the new controller n +1 in the controllers 1-n.
S37: the new controller n +1 sends an instruction C to the communication bus.
Instruction C contains a controller address list with the controller address of the new controller.
That is, the controller address list in the command C is a controller address list table including controller addresses of the controllers 1 to n +1n+1{1,2,3,...,n+1}。
S38: and judging whether the controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) feeds back the response command D, if so, going to S39, and if not, going to 39'.
The new controller n +1 is able to list table according to the controller addressn+1And (3) confirming the information of {1,2, 3., n +1} and the controllers 1-n one by one on line.
S39: indicating that controller i is online, the controller address of the new controller n +1 is updated into the controller address list of controller i.
And if the controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) receives the instruction C on line and feeds back a response instruction D to indicate that the controller i is on line, updating the controller address of the new controller n +1 into a controller address list of the controller i.
For example, after the controller 1 receives the command C on line, the controller address of the new controller n +1 is updated to the controller address list of the controller 1, and at this time, the controller address list of the controller 1 is the controller address list table including the controller addresses of the controllers 1 to n +11{1,2,3,...,n+1}。
Thus, if all the controllers 1 to n are on-line, the controller address list of each controller in the controllers 1 to n is the controller address list including the controller addresses of the controllers 1 to n + 1.
S39': indicating that the controller i is on-line, the new controller n +1 will change the controller address of the controller i from the controller address list table of the new controller n +1n+1And {1,2, 3.,. n +1 }.
If the new controller n +1 does not receive the response instruction D of one controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) in the controllers 1 to n, the instruction C is sent to the communication bus again, if the response instruction D of the controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) is not received, the controller i (i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to n) is not on line, and at the moment, the new controller n +1 can enable the controller address of the controller i from the controller address list table of the new controller n +1n+1Is removed from {1,2, 3., n +1}, so as to formTo an updated controller address list tablen+1{1,2,3,...,i-1,i+1,...,n+1}。
S40: after the controllers 1-n confirm one by one, the new controller n +1 updates the controller address list.
Thus, the controllers 1 to n are confirmed one by one, and after all the controllers 1 to n are confirmed, the updated controller address list of the new controller n +1 comprises the controller addresses of all the online controllers in the controllers 1 to n and the controller address of the new controller n + 1.
For example, after the controllers 1 to n have finished checking, the controller addresses of the respective controllers are listed as follows only if the controller 3 is not on-line in the controllers 1 to n.
The controller address list updated by the new controller n +1 is tablen+1{1,2,4,...,n+1}。
For an online controller, the controller address list is table1{1,2,3,...,n+1}。
S41: and the new controller n +1 sends the updated controller address list to the communication bus through the instruction E, and all the online controllers synchronously update the controller address list.
For example, the new controller n +1 updates the controller address list to tablen+1{1,2, 4., n +1}, then the list of controller addresses for all online controllers is also from the table1{1,2, 3., n +1} is updated to tablen+1{1,2,4,...,n+1}。
Namely, the controller address of the non-on-line controller (namely, the controller 3) is eliminated, and the confirmation mode can avoid control omission and is convenient and reliable to control.
Therefore, the address of the new controller n +1 newly accessed to the communication bus can be automatically set in the mode, the hardware input cost is saved, the address configuration time is saved, and the address setting efficiency is improved.
The above examples are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted for elements thereof; and such modifications or substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the corresponding technical solutions.
