It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
An operation control method of a multi-split system according to an embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to fig. 1 and 2.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the multi-split system includes an evaporator 100, a water tank 200 for storing condensed water generated from the evaporator 100, and a subcooler 300 connected to the evaporator 100, the subcooler 300 being located inside the water tank 200, the water tank 200 being provided with a water pump 400 for controlling a liquid level.
The operation control method of the multi-split air conditioning system comprises the following steps of:
step S100: acquiring the refrigerating capacity demand and the indoor air humidity;
step S200: and controlling the operation of the water pump according to the refrigerating capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity so as to control the liquid level of the condensed water in the water tank.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the multi-split system is composed of an evaporator 100, a water tank 200, a subcooler 300, and a water pump 400. The evaporator 100 generates a large amount of condensed water while refrigerating, and the condensed water is introduced into the water tank 200 from the bottom of the water tank 200 through a pipe. A subcooler 300 is provided inside the water tank 200, and the subcooler 300 and the evaporator 100 are connected by a pipe. The condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200 through a pipe and cools the subcooler 300 inside the water tank 200, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the supercooling degree of the refrigerant. Wherein, the condensed water enters the water tank 200 from the bottom of the water tank 200, and the cooling effect on the subcooler 300 can be enhanced. The water pump 400 is further disposed on the sidewall of the water tank 200, and the water pump 400 can control the liquid level of the water tank 200.
As shown in fig. 3, the multi-split system acquires a cooling capacity demand set by a user and an indoor air humidity at the present time, and controls the operation of the water pump 400 according to the cooling capacity demand and the indoor air humidity, thereby controlling a liquid level height of condensed water in the water tank 200. The water pump 400 is turned on or off as required to control the liquid level height of the water tank 200, and when the water pump 400 is turned off, condensed water cannot be discharged, so that the liquid level height of the water tank 200 can be increased; when the water pump 400 is turned on, the condensation is discharged, thereby lowering the liquid level height of the water tank 200.
According to the operation control method of the multi-split air conditioning system, the operation of the water pump 400 is controlled according to the refrigerating capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity, so that the liquid level height of the condensed water in the water tank 200 is changed. Corresponding condensed water is provided according to refrigeration requirements, the refrigeration capacity of the system is ensured, meanwhile, the energy consumption can be reduced,
in some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, step S200: controlling operation of the water pump to control the level of condensate in the tank based on the cooling capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity, including but not limited to the steps of:
step S210: when the refrigerating capacity demand is greater than a first preset capacity demand, or when the refrigerating capacity demand is less than a second preset capacity demand and the indoor air humidity is greater than a first preset humidity;
step S220: and controlling the water pump to stop working until the water tank is filled with the condensed water.
Specifically, a first preset capacity requirement, a second preset capacity requirement and a first preset humidity are preset, wherein the value set by the first preset capacity requirement is greater than the value set by the second preset capacity requirement. When the current refrigerating capacity requirement is greater than the first preset capacity requirement, it is indicated that the refrigerating capacity provided by the subcooler 300 in the multi-split air-conditioning system cannot meet the current refrigerating capacity requirement, and other ways are needed to increase the refrigerating capacity, therefore, the water pump 400 is controlled to stop working, so that the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200, the water tank 200 is kept in a full state, and the condensed water in the water tank 200 cools the subcooler 300 to increase the refrigerating capacity of the multi-split air-conditioning system, thereby reducing the temperature. The water tank 200 is maintained in a full state until a maximum level trigger signal indicating a maximum safe water level of the water tank 200 is received, and then the water pump 400 is controlled to operate to drain the excessive condensed water.
When the numerical value of the refrigerating capacity requirement is smaller than the numerical value of the first preset capacity requirement and the numerical value of the indoor air humidity is larger than the numerical value of the first preset humidity, the refrigerating capacity requirement can meet the current refrigerating capacity requirement, but the refrigerating capacity required during refrigerating is larger due to overlarge indoor air humidity, so that the water pump 400 needs to be controlled to stop working, the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200, and the water tank 200 is kept in a full state, so that the refrigerating capacity of the multi-split air system is improved. The condensate water in the water tank 200 can cool the subcooler 300, so that the refrigerating capacity of the multi-split air-conditioning system is improved, and the requirement on refrigerating capacity at high air humidity is met. When the maximum liquid level trigger signal is received, the water pump 400 is controlled to start to operate, so that the excessive condensed water in the water tank 200 is drained.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 4, step S200: controlling the operation of the water pump to control the level of condensate in the water tank based on the cooling capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity, includes, but is not limited to, the steps of:
step S230: when the refrigerating capacity requirement is smaller than a second preset capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity is smaller than a second preset humidity;
step S240: and controlling the water pump to be started to discharge the condensed water in the water tank.
Specifically, a second preset humidity is preset, wherein the value of the second preset humidity is smaller than the value of the first preset humidity. When the set cooling capacity demand is less than the second preset capacity demand and the indoor air humidity is less than the preset second preset humidity, the water pump 400 is turned on, thereby draining the condensed water in the water tank 200. The refrigerating capacity demand is less than the second and preset the capacity demand and shows that the refrigerating capacity of the current multi-split system can satisfy the refrigerating demand, and indoor air humidity is lower, and air humidity can not increase the consumption of refrigerating flow, need not to increase extra refrigerating capacity again and cools down subcooler 300, consequently, opens water pump 400 and makes the inside comdenstion water of water tank 200 all discharge, and water tank 200 is inside to keep anhydrous state. The refrigeration requirement is met, and meanwhile, new energy consumption is not increased.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 5, step S200: controlling operation of the water pump to control the level of condensate in the tank based on the cooling capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity, including but not limited to the steps of:
step S250: when the refrigerating capacity demand is greater than the second preset capacity demand and the refrigerating capacity demand is less than the first preset capacity demand, or when the refrigerating capacity demand is less than the second preset capacity demand and the indoor air humidity is between the second preset humidity and the first preset humidity;
step S260: and controlling the operation of the water pump according to the control mode at the last moment.
Specifically, a refrigerating capacity demand and an indoor air humidity value are acquired, and numerical values of a first preset capacity demand, a second preset capacity demand, a first preset humidity and a second preset humidity are preset.
When the refrigerating capacity demand is between the second preset capacity demand and the first preset capacity demand, the operating state of the water pump 400 is controlled according to the control mode of the water level of the water tank 200 at the previous moment without acquiring the humidity of the indoor air, wherein the first preset capacity demand is greater than the second preset capacity demand. For example, the refrigeration capacity requirement is acquired, the refrigeration capacity requirement is judged and compared with a first preset capacity requirement and a second preset capacity requirement, and if the refrigeration capacity requirement is between the second preset capacity requirement and the first preset capacity requirement, the indoor air humidity does not need to be acquired, but the operation state of the water pump 400 at the previous time is acquired. If the operation state of the water pump 400 is stopped at the previous moment, stopping the operation of the water pump 400, allowing the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 to enter the water tank 200, and keeping the water tank 200 in a full state until the water level of the condensed water reaches the highest safe water level of the water tank 200, starting the water pump 400 to remove the excessive condensed water, so that the water tank 200 is kept in a full state; if the operation state of the water pump 400 is the on operation at the previous time, the water pump 400 is turned on to discharge all the condensed water inside the water tank 200, so that the inside of the water tank 200 is maintained in a water-free state. If the refrigerating capacity requirement is greater than the second preset capacity requirement, or the refrigerating capacity requirement is less than the first preset capacity requirement, the indoor air humidity needs to be acquired, and then the operation of the water pump 400 is controlled according to the comparison result of the indoor air humidity with the first preset humidity and the second preset humidity.
When the refrigerating capacity requirement is smaller than a preset second preset capacity requirement, the indoor air humidity is larger than a second preset humidity, and the indoor air humidity is smaller than a first preset humidity, the running state of the water pump 400 at the last moment is obtained, and the running state of the water pump 400 at the current moment is controlled according to the running state of the water pump 400 at the last moment. For example, the cooling capacity demand is acquired, the cooling capacity demand is judged and compared with a first preset capacity demand and a second preset capacity demand, if the cooling capacity demand is smaller than a second preset capacity demand, the indoor air humidity is acquired, and the indoor air humidity is compared with the first preset humidity and the second preset humidity. If the indoor air humidity is between the second preset humidity and the first preset humidity, the operation state of the water pump 400 at the previous time is acquired. If the operation state of the water pump 400 is stopped at the previous moment, stopping the operation of the water pump 400, so that the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200 from the bottom of the water tank 200, keeping the water tank 200 in a full state until the water level of the condensed water reaches the highest safe water level of the water tank 200, and starting the water pump 400 to drain the excessive condensed water so as to keep the water tank 200 in a full state; if the operation state of the water pump 400 is the on operation at the previous time, the water pump 400 is turned on to discharge all the condensed water inside the water tank 200, so that the inside of the water tank 200 is maintained in a water-free state.
In other embodiments, the set point of the second preset humidity in the cooling mode is greater than the second preset humidity value in the dehumidification mode.
Specifically, the operation modes of the multi-split air conditioning system include a cooling mode capable of reducing the indoor air temperature and a dehumidifying mode capable of reducing the indoor humidity while reducing the indoor air temperature. And in different working modes, the preset values of the second preset humidity are different, and the second preset humidity is smaller than the second preset humidity in the dehumidification mode in the refrigeration mode. In operation, the refrigerating capacity demand and the indoor air humidity are acquired, the refrigerating capacity demand is compared with the first preset capacity demand and the second preset capacity demand, the indoor air humidity is compared with the first preset humidity and the second preset humidity, and the operation state of the water pump 400 is controlled according to the comparison result, so that the water level of the condensed water in the water tank 200 is adjusted. The operation of the water pump 400 is controlled through the difference between the refrigerating capacity requirement and the indoor air humidity in different working modes, so that the refrigerating reliability of the multi-split air conditioner system can be improved while the refrigerating capacity of the multi-split air conditioner system is improved.
For example, in the cooling mode, the first preset capacity demand is set to 80%, the second preset capacity demand is set to 30%, the first preset humidity is set to 70%, and the second preset humidity is set to 60%. When the refrigerating capacity requirement is less than or equal to 30% and the indoor air humidity is greater than or equal to 70%, or when the refrigerating capacity requirement is greater than or equal to 80%, the refrigerating capacity provided by the subcooler 300 in the multi-split air-conditioning system cannot meet the current refrigerating capacity requirement, so that the water pump 400 is controlled to stop working, the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200 through a pipeline, and the condensed water can cool the subcooler 300 in the water tank 200, so that the refrigerating capacity of the multi-split air-conditioning system is improved, and the refrigerating requirement is met. When the refrigerating capacity requirement is less than or equal to 30% and the indoor air humidity is less than or equal to 60%, the refrigerating capacity provided by the subcooler 300 in the multi-split air-conditioning system can meet the refrigerating requirement without increasing additional refrigerating capacity, so that the water pump 400 is controlled to work, and all the condensed water in the water tank 200 is discharged. When the refrigeration capacity demand is less than or equal to 30% and the indoor air humidity is between 60% and 70%, or when the refrigeration capacity demand is between 30% and 80%, the working state of the water pump 400 at the previous time is acquired, and the current working state of the water pump 400 is controlled according to the working state of the water pump 400 at the previous time.
In the dehumidification mode, the first preset capacity demand is set to 80%, the second preset capacity demand is set to 30%, the first preset humidity is set to 70%, and the second preset humidity is set to 40%. The specific control method of the water pump 400 is the same as that in the cooling mode, and is not described herein again.
It can be understood that, in different working modes, the specific values of the first preset capacity requirement, the second preset capacity requirement, the first preset humidity and the second preset humidity can be adjusted and set according to actual requirements.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 6, the multi-split system further includes a liquid level sensor 500, and the liquid level sensor 500 is disposed inside the water tank 200 and is capable of detecting a liquid level height of the condensed water in the water tank 200. When the liquid level sensor 500 detects that the liquid level of the water tank 200 has reached the maximum level, the water pump 400 is controlled to operate, thereby removing the excessive condensed water from the water tank 200.
Specifically, the liquid level sensor 500 is disposed inside the water tank 200, and can monitor the liquid level height of the condensed water in the water tank 200 in real time. When the refrigerating capacity provided by the subcooler 300 cannot meet the current refrigerating capacity requirement, the water pump 400 is turned off, so that the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200 from the bottom of the water tank 200 to cool the subcooler 300, thereby improving the refrigerating capacity of the multi-split air-conditioning system. Along with the increase of the condensed water, the water level of the water tank 200 will continuously rise, when the liquid level sensor 500 detects that the water tank 200 is full, that is, the highest water level of the water tank 200 is reached, the water pump 400 is started to discharge the redundant condensed water, so that the normal operation of the multi-split air conditioning system can be ensured while the water tank 200 is kept full of water. The water level of the water tank 200 can be monitored in real time by arranging the liquid level sensor 500, and after the water level reaches the highest water level, the water pump 400 is controlled to remove redundant condensate water, so that the automatic control of the system is realized, and the system damage caused by the overhigh water level of the water tank 200 is avoided.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 7, the operation control method of the multi-split system further includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:
step S300: acquiring the water inlet temperature and the water outlet temperature of a water tank;
step S400: and when the difference value between the inlet water temperature and the outlet water temperature is smaller than the preset temperature difference value, controlling the water pump to work so as to reduce the amount of condensed water in the water tank.
Specifically, the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 enters the water tank 200 from the bottom of the water tank 200 through the water pipe, leaves the water tank 200 from the top of the water tank 200, and obtains the temperature of the inlet water of the condensed water into the water tank 200 and the temperature of the outlet water of the condensed water from the cover of the water tank 200. The difference between the inlet water temperature and the outlet water temperature is compared with a preset temperature difference, and the working state of the water pump 400 is controlled according to the comparison result. If the difference between the inlet water temperature and the outlet water temperature is less than the preset temperature difference, the water pump 400 is turned on to drain the condensed water, thereby reducing the amount of the condensed water in the water tank 200.

The first preset temperature difference value and the second preset temperature difference value can be set to be any values in the range of 0-5 ℃.
When the difference between the inlet temperature difference and the outlet temperature difference is greater than 3 ℃, it indicates that the condensate water generated by the evaporator 100 can also cool the subcooler 300, and therefore, the water pump 400 is turned off. After the water pump 400 is turned off, the condensed water in the water tank 200 is continuously increased until the liquid level sensor 500 detects the highest liquid level trigger signal, that is, the water level of the water tank 200 reaches the highest water level, the water pump 400 is turned on again, and the redundant condensed water is discharged. When the difference between the inlet temperature difference and the outlet temperature difference is less than 2 ℃, it indicates that the condensed water generated by the evaporator 100 cannot provide enough cooling capacity to meet the refrigeration requirement of the multi-split system, and therefore the water pump 400 needs to be started to discharge the original condensed water in the water tank 200. In the present embodiment, the water pump 400 is operated every 40 seconds. And when the temperature difference between the inlet water and the outlet water is between 2 and 3 ℃, acquiring the running state of the water pump 400 at the previous moment and controlling the water pump 400 to run according to the running state of the water pump 400 at the previous moment. Wherein the operation rate of the water pump 400 is related to the volume V of the water tank 200, the time for which the water pump 400 is operated once is M seconds, and the amount V of water discharged 1 Then the number of times that the water pump 400 is operated together N = V/V 1 That is, after the water pump 400 is operated N times, the condensed water in the water tank 200 can be drained.
