In order that the above objects, features and advantages of the invention will be readily understood, a more particular description of the invention will be rendered by reference to specific embodiments thereof which are illustrated in the appended drawings.
[ first embodiment ]
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in one particular embodiment, the method includes:
s100, selecting a first operation parameter and a second operation parameter of the air conditioner according to the outdoor environment temperature of the air conditioner;
s200, controlling a first operation parameter until the circulation quantity of the refrigerant of the air conditioner is kept stable, and filling the refrigerant into the air conditioner;
s300, judging the refrigerant charge of the air conditioner according to the second operation parameter;
wherein the first operating parameter is an operating parameter related to a refrigerant circulation amount and the second operating parameter is an operating parameter related to a refrigerant charge amount.
In step S100, the temperature of the outdoor environment is detected by a temperature sensor and other devices, the automatic filling function of the air conditioning system is started, and different operation parameters are selected according to different outdoor environments, so that smooth filling of the refrigerant is ensured; in step S200, the circulation amount of the refrigerant of the air conditioner is controlled to be stable by controlling the first operation parameter, and the refrigerant is lost in the operation process of the air conditioner, so that the circulation amount of the refrigerant needs to be kept stable, and after the circulation amount is stable and the air conditioner operates for a period of time, a judgment result of the refrigerant amount is displayed on a main control board of the air conditioner, and the judgment result is the circulation amount of the refrigerant in the air conditioner; in step S300, the filling amount of the refrigerant is controlled according to the second operation parameter, and when the first operation parameter is used as a reference, the refrigerant is filled according to the determination result, so that the deviation of the filling amount caused by consumption in the process of filling is avoided, and the filling amount of the refrigerant is more accurate.
In operation, the start of the automatic refrigerant charge needs to be judged after the air conditioner is started for 15 minutes, and if the operation time is less than 15 minutes, the judging method is not executed.
The parameters of the air conditioner are adjusted according to different outdoor environment temperatures, the circulation quantity of the refrigerant of the air conditioner is kept stable by controlling the first operation parameters, the condition that the refrigerant is not influenced by working loss in the process of filling the refrigerant is ensured, the filling quantity of the refrigerant is judged by the second operation parameters, and the filling quantity of the refrigerant is more accurate.
[ second embodiment ]
In a specific embodiment, the method further comprises:
s210, the first operation parameter is selected from one or a combination of the following: compressor frequency, fan speed; and/or
S310, the second operation parameter is selected from one or a combination of the following: high pressure temperature, opening degree of expansion valve of indoor unit and supercooling degree.
In step S210, different first operation parameters are selected and controlled according to different outdoor environment temperatures of the air conditioner, when the outside temperature is less than or equal to 10 ℃, a certain output ratio needs to be controlled, namely, the compressor frequency and the fan rotation speed are respectively fixed, when the circulation amount of the refrigerant is stable, the judgment result of the refrigerant amount is displayed, and when the outside temperature is greater than 10 ℃, only a certain compressor frequency is controlled, and the corresponding fan rotation speed is not controlled.
In step 310, the high pressure temperature, the opening degree of the expansion valve of the indoor unit, and the supercooling degree can be used as factors of the refrigerant charge amount, wherein the high pressure temperature and the opening degree of the expansion valve of the indoor unit are used as main judging factors, the supercooling degree is used as auxiliary judging factors, the law of the opening degree of the valve of the indoor unit is obvious when the outdoor temperature is higher than 10 ℃, the refrigerant charge is started after the determination of the amount of the refrigerant in the system is finished, and the opening degree of the valve of the indoor unit is automatically reduced to maintain the refrigerant amount of the evaporator when the refrigerant circulation amount is increased, so that the smaller the opening degree of the valve of the indoor unit is, the more the refrigerant in the air conditioning system is.
When the external temperature is less than or equal to 10 ℃, the supercooling degree variation along with the outdoor temperature is not obvious, and the variation of the internal machine valves with different refrigerant amounts is not great; after the frequency and the rotating speed of the fan are fixed, the high-voltage rule is obvious, and the judgment is convenient; when the outside temperature is greater than 10 ℃, the high pressure is influenced by the frequencies of the fan and the compressor, and the rotating speeds of the fans under all working conditions are not necessarily the same, so that the judgment of the refrigerant filling quantity is influenced.
The indoor ambient temperature is, for example, 15 c and the outdoor ambient temperature is 9 c. At this time, it is possible to determine that the air conditioning system is in the determination condition that the outside temperature is less than 10 ℃, so that the air conditioning system enters the refrigerant amount determination process based on the high-pressure temperature as a main determination basis after being started.
The law of opening of the internal machine valve is combined with the law of high-pressure change, so that the quantity of the refrigerant in the air conditioning system can be accurately judged at different external temperatures, the automatic filling function is enabled to be more accurate in filling quantity when the refrigerant is filled, and the practicability of the automatic filling function is improved.

In general, the temperature threshold is 10 ℃, preferably, when working under different environments, the temperature threshold can be properly adjusted, so that the change of the high-pressure is used as the main basis of the refrigerant charge in a regularly obvious range, for example: when the external atmospheric pressure is low, the temperature threshold can be appropriately lowered.
Exemplary, the indoor ambient temperature ranges from 10-35 ℃ and the outdoor ambient temperature ranges from 0-45 ℃. If the air conditioning system detects that the indoor environment temperature is 15 ℃, the external environment temperature is 12 ℃. At this time, the air conditioning system can be determined to be in the judging condition that the external environment temperature is more than or equal to 10 ℃, so that the air conditioning system can enter a refrigerant quantity judging process taking the opening of the internal machine valve as a main judging basis after being started.
The temperature threshold is set to enable the opening degree of the internal machine valve and the high pressure to be provided with the demarcation point, the system can compare with the temperature threshold according to the external temperature, the reasonable judgment mode is selected to control the refrigerant filling quantity, and meanwhile, the temperature threshold can be adjusted according to specific conditions, so that the compatibility of the automatic filling function is improved.
