As shown in fig. 7, an air conditioner according to an aspect of the present invention includes: the system comprises a compressor, a four-way valve, an outdoor heat exchanger, an indoor heat exchanger 1, an indoor heat exchanger 2, a two-way valve 1, a two-way valve 2 and a throttling device. The exhaust port of the compressor is communicated to the first valve port of the four-way valve. The second port of the four-way valve is communicated to the first end of the outdoor heat exchanger on one hand and the first end of the indoor heat exchanger 1 on the other hand. The second end of the outdoor heat exchanger is communicated to the fourth valve port of the four-way valve on the one hand, and is communicated to the second end of the indoor heat exchanger 2 through the throttling device on the other hand.

Specifically, when both the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2 of the air conditioner need to be put into use, the two-way valve 1 is opened, and the two-way valve 2 is closed, so that the refrigerant in the corresponding refrigerant pipeline in the system where the air conditioner is located can flow through the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2. When only one indoor heat exchanger is needed, the two-way valve 1 is closed, and the two-way valve 2 is opened, so that the refrigerant in the corresponding refrigerant pipeline in the system where the air conditioner is located only flows through the indoor heat exchanger 1.
In the scheme of the invention, a two-way valve (such as the two-way valve 1) is arranged between two adjacent heat exchangers in more than two indoor heat exchangers (such as the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2), another two-way valve (such as the two-way valve 2) is connected in parallel on a serial pipeline of the two-way valve (such as the two-way valve 1) and the indoor heat exchanger, after the air conditioner operates for a period of time, a difference value between the indoor ambient temperature and the set temperature of a user is obtained through a temperature sensor, and the frequency of a compressor, the two-way valve (such as the two-way valve 1 and/or the two-way valve 2), the rotating speed of an indoor fan of the air conditioner and the rotating speed of an outdoor fan of the air conditioner are adjusted according to preset values, so that the air conditioner can operate in a low energy consumption state after meeting the requirements of the user, the frequent on-off and the frequent on-off caused by reaching the set temperature of the user after long-time operation can be avoided, the comfort experience of the user and the service life of the air conditioner can be influenced, the comfort experience of the user and the service life of the air conditioner can be facilitated, and the service life of the air conditioner can be prolonged.
The heat exchange areas of the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2 can be the same or different, and the heat exchange areas are not required to be consistent. The heat exchangers with the same heat exchange area can be used for production, and the heat exchangers with different heat exchange areas can be used for meeting certain service environments. The main function of reducing the area of the indoor heat exchanger is to reduce the cold (heat) output of the air conditioner to the room. The heat exchange area of the outdoor heat exchanger is unchanged, and the heat exchange of the air conditioner can be influenced by only reducing the area of the indoor heat exchanger. Of course, if the heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger is reduced at the same time, the heat exchange effect of the air conditioner is further deteriorated.
In some embodiments, the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner obtained in step S120 when the indoor heat exchanger operates according to the set maximum heat exchange area is recorded as a first indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner, for example, a current indoor environment temperature t after the air conditioner is turned on 0 。

And controlling the compressor to operate for a set time according to the second frequency so as to enable the air conditioner to maintain an operating state under set energy consumption under the condition that the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner. Wherein the first frequency is the original operating frequency f 0 Setting frequency such as setting frequency delta f, second frequency = original operating frequency f 0 -setting a frequency Δ f. Setting time, e.g. setting time m 0 . Of course, if it is determined that the first absolute value of the temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature, the air conditioner is controlled to maintain the current operation state, and it is continuously determined whether the first absolute value of the temperature difference is less than or equal to the first preset temperature (e.g., the first preset temperature t) Preset value 1 )。

Wherein the first frequency is the original operating frequency f 0 Setting frequency such as setting frequency Δ f, second frequency = original operation frequency f 0 -setting the frequency Δ f. Third frequency = original operating frequency f 0 -set frequency Δ f. Setting time, e.g. setting time m 0 。
Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, the control method for an air conditioner according to the present invention further includes:
step 3, the running frequency of the compressor is changed from the current frequency f 0 After reducing the set frequency Deltaf, the operation is performed for a set time m 0 (setting time m) 0 Recommended value of 3 min), if the compressor is detected to operate for the set time m after being subjected to frequency reduction in the refrigeration mode 0 Rear current indoor ambient temperature t 1 The current indoor environment temperature t is not less than the current indoor environment temperature t after the air conditioner is started 0 (detecting the current indoor ambient temperature t after the air conditioner is turned on in the heating mode 0 Not less than the set running time m after the compressor is frequency-reduced 0 Rear current indoor ambient temperature t 1 ) If so, the air conditioner is indicated to have poor refrigerating (or heating) capacity, and the operation frequency of the compressor is changed from the original operation frequency f 0 -raising the set frequency Δ f) to the original operating frequency f 0 And then returning to the step 2, otherwise, executing the step 4.

After the operation of the frequency is maintained, the air conditioner still detects the difference between the indoor environment temperature and the user set temperature, and operates for a set time m after the down conversion of the compressor 0 Rear current indoor ambient temperature t 1 User-set temperature t Is provided with | when changes occur, the steps are performed with corresponding adjustments.
Step 42, when the compressor is down-converted, the operation is carried out for a set time m 0 Rear current indoor ambient temperature t 1 User-set temperature t Is provided with |. Or less than second preset temperature t Preset value 2 While continuing to decrease the operating frequency of the compressor (i.e., continuing to decrease Δ f), i.e., causingThe running frequency of the compressor is changed from the current frequency f 0 After the setting frequency Δ f is lowered, the setting frequency Δ f is lowered.
In some embodiments, the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner obtained in step S120 after the compressor operates at the third frequency for the set time is recorded as a third indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner, for example, a current indoor environment temperature t after the compressor performs secondary frequency reduction 2 。
In step S130, controlling at least one of the operating frequency of the compressor, the rotational speed of the indoor fan, the rotational speed of the outdoor fan, and the switching on and off of the switching unit again according to the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the target temperature of the air conditioner, further includes: and a third process of controlling the rotation speed of the indoor and outdoor fans after the compressor operates for a set time at the third frequency.
Referring to fig. 4, a flowchart of an embodiment of controlling the rotational speeds of the indoor and outdoor fans after the compressor operates for the set time according to the third frequency in the method of the present invention will be further described, where the specific process of controlling the rotational speeds of the indoor and outdoor fans after the compressor operates for the set time according to the third frequency in step S130 includes: step S410 to step S440.
And step S410, after the compressor is controlled to operate for a set time according to the third frequency, determining an absolute value of a temperature difference between the ambient temperature in the third room of the air conditioner and the target temperature of the air conditioner, and recording the absolute value as a third temperature difference absolute value.
Step S420, determining whether the absolute value of the third temperature difference is less than or equal to a third preset temperature (e.g. a third preset temperature t) Preset value 3 )。
And step S430, if the third absolute value of the temperature difference is determined to be greater than a third preset temperature, controlling the compressor to maintain to operate according to the third frequency, then returning to re-determine an absolute value of a temperature difference between a third indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner and a target temperature of the air conditioner, recording the absolute value as the third absolute value of the temperature difference, and re-determining whether the third absolute value of the temperature difference is less than or equal to the third preset temperature, so that the air conditioner can maintain an operating state under the condition of set energy consumption when the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner.
And step S440, if the third absolute temperature difference value is smaller than or equal to a third preset temperature, reducing the rotating speed of at least one fan of the indoor fan and the outdoor fan, and controlling the fan to operate for a set time according to the reduced rotating speed so as to enable the air conditioner to maintain an operating state under the set energy consumption condition when the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, the control method for an air conditioner according to the present invention further includes:
in step 42, the operation frequency of the compressor is changed from the current frequency f 0 After two set frequencies delta f are reduced, the current indoor environment temperature t after the secondary frequency reduction of the compressor is detected 2 And the temperature t set by the user Is provided with And the difference therebetween, step 5 is performed.
Step 5, judging whether the current indoor environment temperature t after the secondary frequency reduction of the compressor in the refrigeration mode is met 2 User-set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 Time (user set temperature t in heating mode) Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after secondary compressor frequency reduction 2 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 Third predetermined temperature t Preset value 3 Recommended value of 0 ℃): if not, go to step 51, if yes, go to step 52.
Step 51, when the current indoor environment temperature t after the secondary frequency reduction of the compressor 2 User set temperature t Is provided with Is greater than a third preset temperature t Preset value 3 Time (user set temperature t in heating mode) Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after secondary compressor frequency reduction 2 >t Preset value 3 ) When the compressor in the air conditioner is in the normal state, the compressor maintains the frequency (i.e. the running frequency of the compressor is changed from the current frequency f) 0 After the set frequency Δ f is lowered, the operation is performed with the set frequency Δ f) lowered, and then the process returns to step 5.
Step 52, pressingCurrent indoor environment temperature t after secondary frequency reduction of compressor 2 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 Time (user set temperature t in heating mode) Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after secondary compressor frequency reduction 2 ≤t Preset value 3 ) And when the compressor is reduced to the lowest running frequency, the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans of the air conditioner is reduced, and then step 6 is executed. The lowest operating frequency of the compressor is also changed when the outdoor environment temperature is different. The minimum operating frequency of the compressor is about 14Hz if the outdoor temperature is relatively low, and about 26Hz if the outdoor temperature is relatively high. In order to ensure reliability, the frequency is not directly reduced to the lowest frequency, and if the frequency is directly reduced to the lowest frequency, the cooling and heating effects may be deteriorated, which results in the unsatisfactory requirements, therefore, the frequency is generally set to be m per set time 0 The set frequency Δ f is gradually reduced until the lowest operating frequency is reduced.
In some embodiments, the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner obtained in step S120 after the rotational speed of at least one of the indoor fan and the outdoor fan is reduced and the fan is controlled to operate at the reduced rotational speed for a set time is recorded as a fourth indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner.
In step S130, controlling at least one of the operating frequency of the compressor, the rotational speed of the indoor fan, the rotational speed of the outdoor fan, and the switching on/off of the switching unit according to the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the target temperature of the air conditioner, further includes: and a fourth process of controlling the on-off of the switch unit again after the compressor operates at the third frequency for a set time.
With reference to the schematic flow chart of an embodiment of the method shown in fig. 5, in which the on/off of the switch unit is controlled again after the compressor operates for the set time according to the third frequency, the specific process of controlling the on/off of the switch unit again after the compressor operates for the set time according to the third frequency in step S130 is further described, which includes: step S510 to step S530.
Step S510, after reducing the rotation speed of at least one of the indoor fan and the outdoor fan and controlling the fan to operate for a set time at the reduced rotation speed, determining whether a fourth indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner exceeds a target temperature of the air conditioner. The exceeding means that the fourth indoor ambient temperature is lower than the target temperature in the cooling mode, and the fourth indoor ambient temperature is higher than the target temperature in the heating mode.
Step S520, if it is determined that the fourth indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner does not exceed the target temperature of the air conditioner, controlling the air conditioner to maintain the current operation mode, for example, controlling the compressor to maintain the operation at the third frequency, controlling at least one of the outdoor fan and the indoor fan to operate at the reduced rotation speed, and then returning to re-determine whether the fourth indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner exceeds the target temperature of the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner maintains the operation state under the set energy consumption when the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner.
Step S530, if it is determined that the fourth indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner exceeds the target temperature of the air conditioner, controlling the on/off of the switch unit again to reduce the actual heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger, for example, to half of the set maximum heat exchange area, so that the air conditioner maintains the operating state under the set energy consumption when the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner.
Wherein, in step S530, the on/off of the switch unit is controlled again, so that the actual heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger is reduced, including: and under the condition that the indoor heat exchanger comprises a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger and the switch unit comprises a first two-way valve and a second two-way valve, controlling the first two-way valve to be closed and controlling the second two-way valve to be opened so as to enable the air conditioner to maintain the running state under the set energy consumption under the condition that the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner, and then returning to control at least one of the running frequency of the compressor, the rotating speed of the indoor fan, the rotating speed of the outdoor fan and the switching on and off of the switch unit continuously according to the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner and the target temperature of the air conditioner, so that the air conditioner can maintain the running state under the set energy consumption under the condition that the indoor environment temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner continuously.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, the control method for an air conditioner according to the present invention further includes: step 6, after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans of the air conditioner is reduced, the set time m is operated 0 Then, the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced is judged 3 And a user set temperature t Is provided with The difference between, if still: the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the refrigeration mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than a third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or user-set temperature t in heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) And when the air conditioner is started, the two-way valve 1 is closed, the two-way valve 2 is opened, the heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger is reduced, the cold (or heat) quantity output by the air conditioner can keep a relative balance position with the room load, the compressor in the air conditioner is prevented from being frequently started and stopped, and then the air conditioner returns to the step 5. When the cold (heat) output by the air conditioner is reduced to the minimum, whether the cold (heat) output by the air conditioner can meet the room load requirement or not and whether the cold (heat) output by the air conditioner needs to be increased or not are considered; it is therefore necessary to return to step 5 to determine whether the compressor frequency needs to be raised to the current frequency f 0 After the setting frequency Δ f is lowered, the setting frequency Δ f is lowered.
Wherein, the inner and outer fan rotational speed can move simultaneously or reduce one and then reduce the other. The reduction in the rotation speed of the inner and outer fans is not uniform. The outdoor fan switches the wind gear according to the frequency change, for example, when the operation frequency is lower than 46Hz, the rotating speed of the outdoor fan is switched from high wind gear (780 rpm) to low wind gear (600 rpm), and the room is reduced in the cooling modeCurrent indoor environment temperature t after rotation speed of internal and external fans 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or user-set temperature t in heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) The outer fan speed is reduced to the minimum speed (500 rpm).
The rotating speed of the indoor fan is also required to be adjusted according to the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger, and the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the refrigeration mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or user-set temperature t in heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) Then, the rotating speed of the indoor fan is reduced according to the set rotating speed delta r (50 rpm) every t time (such as 40 s) until the current indoor environment temperature t is obtained after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the refrigeration mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Is greater than a third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or user-set temperature t in heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Is greater than a third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) Or the indoor fan speed has been reduced to a minimum (350 rpm) and then the current indoor fan speed is maintained in operation. It should be noted that when the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is lower (higher) than the set value (e.g. the set value is 2 ℃ during cooling and 56 ℃ during heating) during cooling, the rotating speed of the indoor fan can not be reduced, so as to avoid the problem of frosting when the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is too low in the cooling mode, and avoid the too high pressure of the system where the air conditioner is located in the heating mode.
In the scheme of the invention, the main purpose is to avoid the problem that the air conditioner is frequently started and stopped after reaching the temperature set by a user in the later operation stage. In the related scheme, in the operation process of the air conditioner, when larger refrigerating and heating quantity is needed, the compressor is controlled to operate at a larger frequency, when the larger refrigerating and heating quantity is not needed, the compressor is controlled to operate at a smaller frequency, and when the ambient temperature in a refrigerating room is less than or equal to a set temperature (the ambient temperature in a heating room is greater than or equal to the set temperature), the control method is quitted, and the problems solved by the two methods are different.
In some alternative embodiments, the indoor heat exchanger may be divided into multiple sections, and the area of the indoor heat exchanger may be adjusted by multiple two-way valves to accommodate the cooling (heating) requirements of rooms of different loads. The two-way valves are used for controlling the on-off of the refrigerant of the air conditioner in the heat exchange pipeline of the indoor heat exchanger, and the heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger can be switched more accurately by adopting the two-way valves for matching different use environments. When the indoor heat exchanger is not required to be completely put into use, the area of the heat exchanger through which the refrigerant flows is adjusted by controlling the opening and closing of the two-way valve.
According to the scheme of the invention, after the air conditioner runs for a long time, the cold (heat) output of the air conditioner can be maintained at a balance position with the room load, so that the problem that the comfortable experience of a user and the service life of the air conditioner are influenced due to large fluctuation of the indoor environment temperature caused by frequent startup and shutdown after the air conditioner reaches the temperature set by the user in the later running stage is avoided, the comfortable experience of the user is favorably improved, and the service life of the air conditioner is prolonged.
By adopting the technical scheme of the embodiment, the actual heat exchanger area of the more than two indoor heat exchangers can be adjusted by on-off of the switch unit by arranging the more than two indoor heat exchangers and arranging the switch unit (such as the two-way valve) on the refrigerant heat exchange pipeline of the more than two indoor heat exchangers. In the operation process of the air conditioner, the operation frequency of the compressor is controlled according to the difference value between the indoor environment temperature and the user set temperature, the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans and the on-off of the switch unit, so that the air conditioner can respond in advance when the room temperature (namely the indoor environment temperature) is close to the user set temperature, and the air conditioner is prevented from being operated at a higher frequency for a long time to quickly reach the set temperature and frequently start and stop the air conditioner, therefore, the air conditioner is operated at a low energy consumption state after the user requirement is met, the phenomenon that the compressor is repeatedly started and stopped to cause the indoor temperature to fluctuate greatly is avoided, the comfort experience of a user is facilitated to be improved, and the service life of the air conditioner is prolonged.

Referring to the example shown in fig. 7, two-way valves (i.e., two-way valve 1 and two-way valve 2) are used in cooperation, and the two-way valves (i.e., two-way valve 1 and two-way valve 2) are used for controlling the on/off of corresponding refrigerant pipelines in the system where the air conditioner is located. Specifically, when the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2 of the air conditioner are both required to be put into use, the two-way valve 1 is opened, and the two-way valve 2 is closed, so that the refrigerant in the corresponding refrigerant pipeline in the system where the air conditioner is located flows through the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2. When only one indoor heat exchanger is used, the two-way valve 1 is closed, and the two-way valve 2 is opened, so that the refrigerant in the corresponding refrigerant pipeline in the system where the air conditioner is located only flows through the indoor heat exchanger 1.
In the scheme of the invention, a two-way valve (such as a two-way valve 1) is arranged between two adjacent heat exchangers in more than two indoor heat exchangers (such as an indoor heat exchanger 1 and an indoor heat exchanger 2), another two-way valve (such as a two-way valve 2) is connected in parallel on a serial pipeline of the two-way valve (such as the two-way valve 1) and the indoor heat exchanger, after the air conditioner operates for a period of time, a difference value between the indoor ambient temperature and the temperature set by a user is obtained through a temperature sensor, and the frequency of a compressor, the two-way valve (such as the two-way valve 1 and/or the two-way valve 2), the rotating speed of an indoor fan and the rotating speed of an outdoor fan of the air conditioner are adjusted according to preset values, so that the air conditioner can operate in a low-energy-consumption state after meeting the requirements of the user, the frequent on-off and on-off caused by reaching the temperature set by the user after long-time operation are avoided, the comfortable experience of the user and the service life of the air conditioner are influenced, the comfortable experience of the user and the service life of the air conditioner is facilitated, and the service life of the air conditioner is prolonged.
The heat exchange areas of the indoor heat exchanger 1 and the indoor heat exchanger 2 can be the same or different, and the heat exchange areas are not required to be consistent. The heat exchangers with the same heat exchange area can be used for production, and the heat exchangers with different heat exchange areas can be used for meeting certain service environments.

The exceeding means that the fourth indoor ambient temperature is lower than the target temperature in the cooling mode, and the fourth indoor ambient temperature is higher than the target temperature in the heating mode. The specific functions and processes of the control unit 104 are also referred to in step S510.

The specific functions and processes of the control unit 104 are also referred to in step S530.
Wherein, the controlling unit 104 controls the on/off of the switch unit again to reduce the actual heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger, and includes: the control unit 104 is specifically further configured to, in a case where the indoor heat exchanger includes a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger, and the switch unit includes a first two-way valve and a second two-way valve, control the first two-way valve to be closed and control the second two-way valve to be opened, so as to maintain the air conditioner in an operating state under the set energy consumption in a case where the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner, and then return to continue to control at least one of the operating frequency of the compressor, the rotating speed of the indoor fan, the rotating speed of the outdoor fan, and re-on/off of the switch unit according to the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner and the target temperature of the air conditioner, so as to continue to maintain the air conditioner in an operating state under the set energy consumption in a case where the indoor ambient temperature of the air conditioner reaches the target temperature of the air conditioner.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, the control device for an air conditioner according to the present invention further includes: step 6, after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans of the air conditioner is reduced, the set time m is operated 0 Then, the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced is judged 3 And a user set temperature t Is provided with The difference between, if still: the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the refrigeration mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or setting the temperature t by the user in the heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) And when the air conditioner is started, the two-way valve 1 is closed, the two-way valve 2 is opened, the heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger is reduced, the cold (or heat) output by the air conditioner can keep a relative balance position with the room load, the compressor in the air conditioner is prevented from being frequently started and stopped, and then the step 5 is returned.
Wherein, the inner and outer fan rotational speed can move simultaneously or reduce one and then reduce the other. The reduction in the rotation speed of the inner and outer fans is not uniform. The outdoor fan is firstly changed according to the frequencyThe wind gear is switched, for example, when the operation frequency is lower than 46Hz, the rotating speed of the external fan is switched from a high wind gear (780 rpm) to a low wind gear (600 rpm), and the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the cooling mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or setting the temperature t by the user in the heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) The outer fan speed is reduced to the lowest speed (500 rpm).
The rotating speed of the indoor fan is also required to be adjusted according to the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger, and the current indoor environment temperature t after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the refrigeration mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or user-set temperature t in heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Not more than third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) Then, the rotating speed of the indoor fan is reduced according to the set rotating speed delta r (50 rpm) every t time (such as 40 s) until the current indoor environment temperature t is obtained after the rotating speed of the indoor and outdoor fans is reduced in the refrigeration mode 3 User set temperature t Is provided with Is greater than a third preset temperature t Preset value 3 (or user-set temperature t in heating mode Is provided with Current indoor ambient temperature t after reduction of indoor and outdoor fan speed 3 Is greater than a third preset temperature t Preset value 3 ) Or the indoor fan speed has been reduced to a minimum (350 rpm) and then the current indoor fan speed is maintained in operation. It should be noted that when the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is lower (higher) than the set value (e.g. the set value is 2 ℃ during cooling and 56 ℃ during heating) during cooling, the rotating speed of the indoor fan can not be reduced, so as to avoid the problem of frosting when the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is too low in the cooling mode, and avoid the too high pressure of the system where the air conditioner is located in the heating mode.
In the scheme of the invention, the main purpose is to avoid the problem that the air conditioner is frequently started and stopped after reaching the temperature set by a user in the later operation stage. In the related scheme, in the operation process of the air conditioner, when larger refrigerating and heating quantity is needed, the compressor is controlled to operate at a larger frequency, when the larger refrigerating and heating quantity is not needed, the compressor is controlled to operate at a smaller frequency, and when the ambient temperature in the refrigerating chamber is less than or equal to the set temperature (the ambient temperature in the heating chamber is greater than or equal to the set temperature), the control device is withdrawn, so that the problems solved by the two methods are different.
In some alternative embodiments, the indoor heat exchanger may be divided into multiple sections, and the area of the indoor heat exchanger may be adjusted by multiple two-way valves to accommodate the cooling (heating) requirements of rooms of different loads. The two-way valves are used for controlling the on-off of the refrigerant of the air conditioner in the heat exchange pipeline of the indoor heat exchanger, and the heat exchange area of the indoor heat exchanger can be switched more accurately by adopting the two-way valves for matching different use environments. When the indoor heat exchanger is not required to be completely put into use, the area of the heat exchanger through which the refrigerant flows is adjusted by controlling the opening and closing of the two-way valve.
According to the scheme of the invention, after the air conditioner runs for a long time, the cold (heat) output of the air conditioner can be maintained at a balance position with the room load, so that the problem that the comfortable experience of a user and the service life of the air conditioner are influenced due to large fluctuation of the indoor environment temperature caused by frequent startup and shutdown after the air conditioner reaches the temperature set by the user in the later running period is avoided, the comfortable experience of the user is favorably improved, and the service life of the air conditioner is prolonged.
