Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of them.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a control method of a laundry dryer according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the control method of the laundry dryer includes:
s101, acquiring a first moisture content and a second moisture content, wherein the first moisture content is the moisture content of air before entering a drum body of the clothes or the moisture content of air after passing through an evaporator; the second moisture content is a moisture content of the air after passing through the drum body of the laundry or a moisture content of the air before entering the evaporator;
s102, controlling the working state of the laundry dryer according to the first moisture content and the second moisture content.
It should be noted that, in the current laundry dryer, the bi-metal strip humidity sensor is basically used to directly test whether the laundry is dried, so that when the laundry is a large piece such as a quilt cover, a down jacket, etc., the exterior of the quilt cover or the down jacket may be already dried, but the bi-metal strip humidity sensor detects that the interior of the quilt cover or the down jacket is not yet dried, the laundry dryer may continue to dry, resulting in over-drying, increasing power consumption, and the over-drying affects the laundry, so that the user experience is reduced. The control method of the clothes dryer provided by the embodiment of the invention judges whether the clothes are dried by acquiring the moisture content of the air before the air enters the clothes barrel, or the moisture content of the air after the air passes through the evaporator, or the moisture content of the air after the air passes through the clothes barrel, or the moisture content of the air before the air enters the evaporator, and because the moisture content of the air is a uniform total value for judging whether the clothes are dried or not relative to the dry air, when the moisture content of the air meets a certain condition, the clothes can be judged to be dried, even if the local part inside the clothes is not dried (slightly moist, the local moisture content is higher), the clothes can be judged to be dried (the whole moisture content is lower), and further, whether the clothes are dried or not is judged directly according to the moisture content of the air, the condition that the local part is dried but not dried can not be avoided, and the problem of over-drying can not occur, so that the clothes can not be damaged due to over-drying, and the experience of users can be improved.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, said controlling the operation state of said laundry dryer according to said first moisture content and said second moisture content at step S102 comprises:
s1021, calculating a moisture content difference value according to the first moisture content and the second moisture content;
according to one embodiment of the invention said calculating a moisture content difference value from said first moisture content and said second moisture content comprises:
the moisture content difference is the difference between the second moisture content and the first moisture content.
Taking the first moisture content as d1 and the second moisture content as d2 as an example, the moisture content difference Δ d = d2-d1.
It will be understood that the first moisture content is the moisture content of the air before entering the tub of the laundry, or the moisture content of the air after passing through the evaporator; the second moisture content is the moisture content of the air after passing through the clothes barrel body or the moisture content of the air before entering the evaporator; whether the laundry is dried or not is judged by the moisture content of the air before and after passing through the laundry tub or the moisture content of the air before and after passing through the evaporator.
S1022, calculating the variation of the moisture content difference in unit time according to the moisture content difference;
the unit time in step S1022 may be set according to the storage space and the calculation capability of the clothes dryer, for example, the unit time may be 1s,2s, or 5S, and the shorter the time length of the unit time, the higher the required storage space and the calculation capability of the clothes dryer, and conversely, the longer the time length of the unit time, the lower the required storage space and the calculation capability of the clothes dryer.
When the unit time is 5s, it can be understood that the moisture content difference Δ d (0 s) = d2 (0 s) -d1 (0 s) is obtained at 0s, then the moisture content difference Δ d (5 s) = d2 (5 s) -d1 (5 s) is obtained at 5s, then the moisture content difference has a variation k = [. DELTA.d (5 s) -. DELTA.d (0 s) ]/(5 s-0 s) at 5s, then the moisture content difference Δ d (10 s) = d2 (10 s) -d1 (10 s) is obtained at 10s, then the variation of the moisture content difference has a variation k = [. DELTA.d (10 s) -. DELTA.d (5 s) ]/(10 s-5 s) at 5 s), and so on. Similarly, when the unit time is 2s, it can be understood that the moisture content difference Δ d (0 s) = d2 (0 s) -d1 (0 s) is acquired at 0s, then the moisture content difference Δ d (2 s) = d2 (2 s) -d1 (2 s) is acquired at 2s, then the amount of change in the moisture content difference per unit time 2s is k = [ - Δ d (2 s) - [ Δ d (0 s) ]/(2 s-0 s), then the moisture content difference Δ d (4 s) = d2 (4 s) -d1 (4 s) is acquired at 4s, then the amount of change in the moisture content difference per unit time 2s is k = [ = Δ d (4 s) - [ d (2 s) ]/(4 s-2 s), and so on. When the unit time is other values, refer to the above calculation process of 5s or 2 s.
And S1023, when the variation is a negative value and the moisture content difference value at the current moment is smaller than a preset moisture content difference value, controlling the clothes dryer to stop working.
That is, when the variation k has a negative value, that is, when the moisture content difference at the current time is smaller than the moisture content difference at the previous time, it indicates that the laundry is in a state of being dried soon, and further, when the moisture content difference at the current time is smaller than the preset moisture content difference, that is, the moisture content difference before and after passing through the tub of the laundry is smaller than the preset moisture content difference, it indicates that the laundry has been dried, and at this time, the laundry dryer may be controlled to stop operating. The preset moisture content difference value may be set according to actual conditions, and is not specifically limited herein.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, before the step S101 of acquiring the first moisture content and the second moisture content, the method comprises:
acquiring a first temperature and a first humidity;
acquiring a second temperature and a second humidity;
determining a first moisture content from the first temperature and the first humidity, and determining a second moisture content from the second temperature and the second humidity.
It is understood that the first moisture content may be determined by the first temperature and the first humidity. Wherein, first temperature is the temperature of clothing staving air inlet department, first humidity does the humidity of clothing staving air inlet department, first temperature does the temperature of evaporimeter air outlet department, first humidity does evaporimeter air outlet department humidity, and the in-process of the actual operation can set up first humidity transducer in the air inlet department of clothing staving or the air outlet department of evaporimeter, through first humidity transducer real-time detection clothing staving air inlet department or the first temperature and the first humidity of the air outlet department of evaporimeter.
Likewise, the second moisture content may be determined by a second temperature and a second humidity. The second temperature is the temperature at the air outlet of the clothes barrel body, and the second humidity is the humidity at the air outlet of the clothes barrel body. The second temperature is the temperature at the air inlet of the evaporator, and the second humidity is the humidity at the air inlet of the evaporator. In the actual operation process, a second humidity sensor can be arranged at the air outlet of the clothes barrel body or the air inlet of the evaporator, and the second temperature and the second humidity at the air outlet of the clothes barrel body or the air inlet of the evaporator are detected in real time through the second humidity sensor. The temperature and humidity at the air outlet and the air inlet of the clothes barrel body can directly reflect the dryness and wetness degree of the clothes, and the temperature and humidity data obtained in the way is more beneficial to judging whether the drying of the clothes is finished or not, and is a preferred embodiment of the invention. If the temperature and humidity data at the air outlet and the air inlet of the clothes barrel body are difficult to obtain, the temperature and humidity data at the air inlet and the air outlet of the evaporator can also be obtained to judge whether the drying of the clothes is finished.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, said determining a first moisture content from said first temperature and said first humidity comprises:
determining a first saturated water vapor partial pressure according to the first temperature;
determining a first actual partial pressure of water vapor according to the first saturated partial pressure of water vapor and the first humidity;
determining the first moisture content from the first actual partial pressure of water vapour;
said determining a second moisture content from said second temperature and said second humidity comprises:
determining a second saturated water vapor partial pressure according to the second temperature;
determining a second actual partial pressure of water vapor according to the second saturated partial pressure of water vapor and the second humidity;
determining the second moisture content from the second actual partial pressure of water vapour.
The saturated water vapor partial pressure P is determined based on the temperature T ws The formula of (1) is as follows:
when the temperature T is-100 ℃ to 0 ℃,

wherein, C 1 =-5.6745359E+03;C 2 =-6.3925247E+00;C 3 =-9.6778430E-03;C 4 =6.2215701E-07;C 5 =2.0747825E-09;C 6 =-9.4840240E-13;C 7 =4.1635019E+00。
When the temperature T is between 0 and 200 ℃,
Figure BDA0003303234450000093
wherein, C 8 =-5.8002206E+03;C 9 =1.3914993E+00;C 10 =-4.8640239E-02;C 11 =4.1764768E-05;C 12 =-1.4452093E-08;C 13 =6.5459673E+00。
When the saturated water vapor partial pressure P is obtained ws Then, the partial pressure P of saturated water vapor can be determined ws Calculating the actual partial pressure P of water vapor by the formula of the sum of humidity phi (unit percent) w (unit Pa). The formula is as follows: p w =100*Φ*P ws
When calculating to obtain the actual partial pressure P of the water vapor w Then, the actual partial pressure P of the water vapor can be determined w And obtaining the moisture content W (Kg/Kg dry air) of the air by a formula between the measured atmospheric pressure p and the moisture content W of the air.
The concrete formula is as follows:
Figure BDA0003303234450000094
based on this, after the first temperature T1 is acquired, the first saturated water vapor partial pressure P may be determined from the first temperature T1 ws1 (ii) a Then according to the first saturated water vapor partial pressure P ws1 And the first humidity phi 1 obtains a first actual partial pressure P of water vapor w1 Finally, the first moisture content W1 is acquired. Likewise, after the second temperature T2 is acquired, the second saturated water vapor partial pressure P may be determined based on the second temperature T2 ws2 (ii) a Then according to a second saturated water vapor partial pressure P ws2 And a second humidity phi 2 to obtain a second actual partial pressure P of water vapor w2 Finally, the second moisture content W2 is acquired.
After the first moisture content W1 and the second moisture content W2 are determined, a moisture content difference value may be calculated from the first moisture content and the second moisture content, and the amount of change in the moisture content difference value per unit time may be calculated from the moisture content difference value; so that the laundry dryer is controlled to stop operating when the variation is a negative value and the moisture content difference value at the present time is less than a preset moisture content difference value. Otherwise, the clothes dryer is continuously controlled to continuously work.
It should be noted that only when the variation is a negative value, the moisture content difference at the current time is determined to be smaller than the preset moisture content difference, so that the complex procedure steps and the waste of computing resources are avoided.
