Disclosure of Invention
The invention solves the problems that the compressor is frequently started and stopped and the energy efficiency is poor due to the long-time low-load operation of the multi-split system.
In order to solve the problems, the invention provides a multi-split system low-load operation control method, which comprises the following steps of;
after an indoor unit of the multi-split system is started and stably operates, acquiring a target operating frequency Ftar of the multi-split system;
if the multi-split air conditioner system operates at the lowest operating frequency Fmin, the lowest operating frequency Fmin is greater than the target operating frequency Ftar, and the difference value between the lowest operating frequency Fmin and the target operating frequency Ftar is greater than delta, controlling the multi-split air conditioner system to enter a low-load control mode;
and after entering a low-load control mode, starting an internal machine, and controlling the multi-split air conditioner system to keep the minimum operation frequency Fmin to stably operate.
According to the multi-online system low-load operation control method, under the conditions that the multi-online system operates at the lowest operation frequency Fmin and the system load is low, so that the compressor is frequently started and stopped, and the system efficiency is poor, the multi-online system load is improved by controlling to start one indoor unit, so that the multi-online system can stably operate at the lowest operation frequency Fmin, the compressor is prevented from being frequently started and stopped, and the system energy efficiency is improved.
Further, the target operation frequency Ftar of the multi-split system is a frequency corresponding to the load of the multi-split system and capable of stably operating for a long time.
In the technical scheme, the multi-split system can stably operate at the target operation frequency Ftar, and if the target operation frequency Ftar is lower than the lowest operation frequency Fmin, the load of the multi-split system is too low, the compressor can be frequently started and stopped, and the system energy efficiency is poor.
Furthermore, delta is more than or equal to 2 and less than or equal to 5.
In the technical scheme, the difference value between the lowest operation frequency Fmin and the target operation frequency Ftar is larger than delta, which means that the load of the multi-split air-conditioning system is too low, the compressor can be started and stopped frequently, and the energy efficiency of the system is poor, so that the multi-split air-conditioning system needs to be controlled to enter a low-load control mode.
Further, when an internal machine is restarted, the restarted internal machine is selected according to the internal machine installation position information of the multi-split system, and the method comprises the following steps:
firstly, selecting an inner machine which is closest to an opened inner machine and the indoor space of the inner machine is communicated with the indoor space of the opened inner machine as a re-opened inner machine;
if the indoor spaces of other indoor units are not communicated with the indoor space of the started indoor unit, the indoor unit with the smallest capacity and the indoor space adjacent to the indoor space of the started indoor unit is selected as the re-started indoor unit;
and if the indoor space where other indoor units are located is not adjacent to the indoor space where the started indoor unit is located, selecting the indoor unit with the smallest capacity in the rest indoor units of the multi-split air-conditioning system as the restarted indoor unit.
In the technical scheme, the design can reduce the temperature difference between the indoor space where the first-time started inner machine is located and the adjacent indoor space, and improve the comfort.
Further, if there are a plurality of internal machines which are closest to the started internal machine and the indoor space where the internal machine is located is communicated with the indoor space where the started internal machine is located, the internal machine with the smallest capacity is selected from the plurality of internal machines as the re-started internal machine.
In the technical scheme, the capacity of the re-started internal machine is required to be as small as possible so as to avoid excessive power consumption and excessive system load change.
Furthermore, the wind gear of the re-started indoor unit is a mute gear.
In this technical scheme, design like this, the interior machine of avoiding reopening sends the noise and influences other people.
Furthermore, the re-started internal machine is started and stopped synchronously along with the started internal machine.
In the technical scheme, the starting and stopping of the multi-online system and the re-opened inner machine are controlled by the opened inner machine, the re-opened inner machine is driven to start and stop together by the starting and stopping caused by the temperature or oil return of the opened inner machine, and the re-opened inner machine is driven to close together by the closed opened inner machine to exit the low-load control mode.
Further, the method for controlling the low load operation of the multi-split system further comprises:
and if the running state of the firstly started inner machine is changed, the multi-split system exits the low-load control mode, and after the multi-split system runs stably again, whether the multi-split system needs to enter the low-load control mode again is controlled according to the difference value of the target running frequency Ftar of the multi-split system and the lowest running frequency Fmin of the multi-split system.
In the technical scheme, the change of the running state of the firstly started internal machine can cause the multi-split system to no longer run stably, for example, a user actively changes the set temperature of the internal machine or changes the indoor environment, so that the multi-split system needs to temporarily exit from the low-load control mode, and after the multi-split system runs stably again, the multi-split system is controlled to determine whether the multi-split system needs to re-enter the low-load control mode according to the difference value between the target running frequency Ftar of the multi-split system and the minimum running frequency Fmin of the multi-split system.
Further, the method for controlling the low-load operation of the multi-split system further comprises the following steps;
and if a third internal machine is started, the multi-split system exits the low-load control mode.
In the technical scheme, when the third internal machine is started, the load of the multi-split system is increased, and the multi-split system does not need to operate in a low-load control mode.
Furthermore, when the multi-split air conditioner system exits the low-load control mode, the re-started inner machine is synchronously closed.
Has the advantages that: according to the multi-online system low-load operation control method, under the condition that the multi-online system operates at the lowest operation frequency Fmin and the system load is low, so that the compressor is frequently started and stopped, and the system efficiency is poor, the multi-online system load is improved by controlling to start one indoor machine, so that the multi-online system can stably operate at the lowest operation frequency Fmin, the compressor is prevented from being frequently started and stopped, and the system energy efficiency is improved.

s2, if the multi-split air-conditioning system operates at the lowest operation frequency Fmin, the lowest operation frequency Fmin is greater than the target operation frequency Ftar, and the difference value between the lowest operation frequency Fmin and the target operation frequency Ftar is greater than delta, the multi-split air-conditioning system is controlled to enter a low-load control mode, preferably, delta is not less than 2 and not more than 5, and the difference value between the lowest operation frequency Fmin and the target operation frequency Ftar is greater than delta, which indicates that the multi-split air-conditioning system has too low load, a compressor is frequently started and stopped, and the system energy efficiency is poor, so that the multi-split air-conditioning system needs to be controlled to enter the low-load control mode;
and S3, after entering a low-load control mode, starting an internal machine, controlling the multi-split system to keep the minimum operation frequency Fmin to stably operate, and increasing the load of the multi-split system after starting the internal machine, so that the multi-split system can keep the minimum operation frequency Fmin to stably operate, and thus, the compressor is not frequently started and stopped any more, and the system energy efficiency is improved.

1. firstly, an inner machine which is closest to an opened inner machine and the indoor space of the inner machine is communicated with the indoor space of the opened inner machine is selected as a re-opened inner machine, at the moment, the re-opened inner machine is not only closest to the first opened inner machine, but also the indoor spaces of the two inner machines are communicated with each other, so that the design can reduce the temperature difference between the indoor space of the first opened inner machine and the adjacent indoor space, and improve the comfort of the indoor space;
2. if the indoor spaces of other indoor units are not communicated with the indoor space of the started indoor unit, the indoor unit with the smallest capacity and the indoor space adjacent to the indoor space of the started indoor unit is selected as the re-started indoor unit, and at the moment, the re-started indoor unit not only has the smallest capacity, but also has the adjacent indoor spaces of the two indoor units, so that the design can reduce the temperature difference between the indoor space of the firstly started indoor unit and the adjacent indoor space, improve the comfort of the indoor space, and avoid excessive power consumption and overlarge system load change of the re-started indoor unit;
3. if the indoor spaces of other indoor units are not adjacent to the indoor space of the started indoor unit, the indoor unit with the minimum capacity in the rest indoor units of the multi-split air-conditioning system is selected as the restarted indoor unit, and the design avoids excessive power consumption and excessive system load change of the restarted indoor unit;
in a word, the selected re-opened indoor unit is preferentially selected to be closest to the first opened indoor unit, the indoor units where the two indoor units are located are also communicated with each other, then the indoor unit with the smallest capacity is selected, the indoor unit where the indoor unit is located is adjacent to the indoor space where the opened indoor unit is located, and finally the indoor unit with the smallest capacity in the remaining indoor units is selected.
In this embodiment, further, if there are a plurality of internal machines closest to the started internal machine and communicating the indoor space where the internal machine is located with the indoor space where the started internal machine is located, the internal machine with the smallest capacity is selected from the plurality of internal machines as the re-started internal machine, so as to avoid excessive power consumption of the re-started internal machine and excessive system load change.
In this embodiment, the wind shelves of the indoor unit that reopens are silence shelves to avoid the indoor unit that reopens to send out the noise and influence other people, further, the indoor unit that reopens opens is opened and stops in step along with having opened the indoor unit, also promptly many online systems and the indoor unit that reopens all receive the indoor unit control of having opened, open the indoor unit to the temperature or stop starting and stopping that oil return etc. arouse and can drive the indoor unit that reopening and open and stop together, of course, the indoor unit that has opened closes also can drive reopening closes together and withdraws from low-load control mode.
In addition, in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the method for controlling low load operation of a multiple split system further includes:
s4, entering a multi-split system of a low-load control mode, if the running state of an internal machine which is started for the first time is changed, the multi-split system exits the low-load control mode, after the multi-split system operates stably again, whether the multi-split system needs to enter the low-load control mode again is controlled according to the difference value of the target running frequency Ftar of the multi-split system and the minimum running frequency Fmin of the multi-split system, for example, a user actively changes the set temperature of the internal machine which is started for the first time or the indoor environment changes, the multi-split system needs to temporarily exit the low-load control mode, after the multi-split system operates stably again, whether the multi-split system needs to enter the low-load control mode again is controlled according to the difference value of the target running frequency Ftar of the multi-split system and the minimum running frequency Fmin of the multi-split system, in addition, if a third low-load internal machine is started, the multi-split system exits the low-split system, and when the third internal machine is started, the load of the multi-split system is increased, the multi-split system does not need to operate in the low-load control mode.
In this embodiment, when the multi-split air-conditioning system exits the low-load control mode, the re-started internal unit is turned off, and only the internal unit which is turned on for the first time is kept to continue running.
