Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling heat of a multi-split air conditioner, including:
s101, the processor responds to a heating instruction of the air conditioner, and determines an initial target frequency of the compressor according to information of the indoor unit and indoor and outdoor temperature information. The information of the indoor unit comprises an installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit, rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is started and rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is shut down/standby.
S102, the processor controls the compressor to operate at an initial target frequency.
Here, the air conditioner is turned on to operate the heating mode, and determines an indoor unit to be turned on and an indoor unit to be standby/turned off among the indoor units. Because the indoor units are multiple, the indoor units for starting heating may be one or a plurality of indoor units, or even all indoor units. It is necessary to determine the state of the indoor units first and obtain information of each indoor unit at the same time. The information of the indoor unit comprises an installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit and rated output power of the indoor unit. The installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit refers to the influence of the installation environment on the performance of the indoor unit after the indoor unit is installed. For example, the indoor unit installation environment causes more heat loss of the indoor unit. In this case, the influence of the installation environment of the indoor unit on the heat of the indoor unit is represented by the installation characteristic coefficient. The rated output power of the indoor unit is also referred to as the capacity of the indoor unit. When the multi-split air conditioner operates in a cooling or heating mode, part of refrigerant remains in the condenser. In the heating mode, the indoor heat exchanger is a condenser. When one or a plurality of indoor units are in a shutdown state or a standby state, the refrigerant can be reserved in the heat exchanger. That is, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant discharged from the compressor may generate a loss in the indoor unit that is turned off or is standby, so that the rated output power of the indoor unit that is turned on, turned off/standby needs to be considered in the embodiments of the present disclosure.
The initial target frequency of the compressor reflects the initial heating capacity requirement of the compressor. The initial heating capacity requirement of the compressor depends on the information of the indoor unit and the indoor and outdoor temperature information. The installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit affects the heat of the indoor unit as described above. I.e. the actual output power of the indoor unit. In the case where the output power of the indoor unit cannot accurately embody the user's demand, the initial heating capacity demand of the compressor is also affected. And further, the initial heating capacity of the compressor is different from the actual demand of a user, so that the fluctuation of the air conditioning system is large, and the energy consumption is generated. Therefore, in the embodiment of the disclosure, the installation characteristic coefficient is introduced to improve the matching degree of the initial heating capacity of the compressor and the actual demand of the user. Therefore, the control precision of the compressor is improved, the energy loss of an air conditioning system can be avoided, and the energy saving is facilitated.
By adopting the method for controlling the heat of the multi-split air conditioner, when the air conditioner is used for heating in operation, the initial target frequency of the compressor is determined by combining the rated output power of the startup indoor unit, the rated output power of the shutdown/standby indoor unit, the installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit and the indoor and outdoor environment temperature information. By introducing the installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit, the initial capacity requirement of the compressor is more similar to the actual heating requirement of a user. Thereby improving the control precision of the compressor and enabling the running of the air conditioning system to be more stable and energy-saving.
Optionally, referring to fig. 2, in step S101, the processor determines an initial target frequency of the compressor according to information of a startup indoor unit and indoor and outdoor temperature information, including:
s111, the processor determines target output power of each starting indoor unit according to indoor and outdoor environment temperature information, installation characteristic coefficients and rated output power of each starting indoor unit.
And S112, the processor determines the loss power of each shutdown/standby indoor unit according to the outdoor environment temperature information, the installation characteristic coefficient and the rated output power of each shutdown/standby indoor unit.
S113, the processor takes the sum of each target output power and each loss power as the initial output power of the compressor.
And S114, the processor determines an initial target frequency of the compressor according to the relation between the output power of the compressor and the operating frequency.
Here, the target output power of each startup indoor unit is determined based on the rated output power of each startup indoor unit, the rated output power of each shutdown or standby indoor unit, the installation characteristic coefficient, and the indoor and outdoor environment temperature information. The indoor environment temperature information comprises an indoor current temperature and a set temperature. Specifically, the larger the difference between the indoor current temperature and the set temperature, the larger the target output power. The higher the outdoor ambient temperature, the less the target output power. The installation characteristic coefficient can be obtained through a test after the indoor unit is installed, and in general, the larger the heat loss is, the larger the installation characteristic coefficient is. Thus, the output power of the indoor unit is upwardly corrected, so that the output power of the indoor unit can meet the requirements of users. The target output power of each indoor unit can be determined by combining the parameters. The power loss of the indoor unit in the shutdown/standby state depends on the outdoor environment temperature and the corresponding installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit. The lower the outdoor ambient temperature, the greater the power loss of the indoor unit. The larger the installation characteristic coefficient is, the larger the power loss of the indoor unit is corrected upwards. By combining the two parameters, the power loss of each shutdown/standby indoor unit can be determined.
Further, the target output power of each starting indoor unit and the loss power of each shutdown/standby indoor unit are accumulated, so that the total heating demand of the multi-split air conditioner can be obtained, and the initial output power of the compressor can be obtained. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the number of the air conditioner outdoor units is one, so the total indoor heating demand is the initial output power of the compressor. In some embodiments, the air conditioner outdoor unit includes a plurality of compressors. At this time, the number of starts of the compressors and the output power of the start-up compressors may be determined based on the total amount of heating demand. For example: if the total indoor heating demand is less than 70% of the output load capacity of all compressors, the starting number of the compressors is one; the compressor bears the total indoor heating requirement. If the total indoor heating demand is greater than or equal to 70% of the output load capacity of all the compressors, the number of compressors started is two or more, and each compressor can be used for evenly distributing or proportionally distributing the total indoor heating demand. After determining the initial output power of the compressor, an initial target frequency of the compressor may be determined according to a correspondence between the output power and the operating frequency. Thus, the frequency of the compressor is comprehensively determined by combining factors influencing indoor heating requirements. The initial output load capacity of the compressor is matched with the actual demands of users, the running stability of the air conditioning system is ensured, and the energy conservation is facilitated.
Alternatively, the installation feature coefficients of the indoor units in step S101 are determined by:
and the processor acquires the difference value between the inlet temperature of each indoor unit heat exchanger and the outlet temperature of the outdoor unit heat exchanger under the condition that the multi-split air conditioner is installed for heating and test operation.
The larger the difference value is, the larger the installation characteristic coefficient of the corresponding indoor unit is.
Here, in the heating mode, the inlet temperature of each indoor unit heat exchanger and the outlet temperature of the outdoor unit heat exchanger are detected by the temperature sensor. The temperature difference is calculated, the larger the difference, the more heat loss. That is, the installation environment of the indoor unit is poor, and thus the corresponding indoor unit installation characteristic coefficient is larger. To correct the output power of the indoor unit. The inlet temperature of the indoor unit heat exchanger refers to the temperature of a liquid pipe at the inlet of the indoor unit heat exchanger.
Specifically, the processor may calculate the installation feature coefficients of each indoor unit by the following formula:
l i,n =1+(TG-T s,n )/T sm
wherein l i,n And installing a characteristic coefficient for the nth indoor unit, wherein i is the abbreviation of in and represents the indoor space. T (T) s,n The temperature of the air pipe of the nth indoor unit; TG is the outdoor heat exchanger outlet temperature. T (T) sm Is the average value of the liquid pipe temperature of all indoor units. Here, the difference between the temperature of each indoor unit liquid pipe and the temperature of the outlet of the outdoor heat exchanger is calculated, and the average ratio of the difference to the temperature of each indoor unit liquid pipe is calculated. Compared with the difference value, the ratio can reflect the relative value of the heat loss of the indoor unit in the air conditioning system more accurately.
Optionally, in step S101, the processor determines an initial target frequency of the compressor according to information of a startup indoor unit and indoor and outdoor temperature information, including:
processor computation
The processor determines an initial target frequency corresponding to the initial output power of the compressor according to the relationship between the output power of the compressor and the operating frequency.
Wherein Q is h K is the initial output power of the compressor h For correcting coefficient, k of outdoor environment temperature i,j The indoor environment temperature correction coefficient, l for the j-th indoor unit i,j And the installation characteristic coefficient of the j-th indoor unit is started. k (k) h According to the outdoor environment temperature; the higher the outdoor ambient temperature, k h The larger the value of (2). k (k) i,j According to the difference between the indoor environment temperature of the corresponding indoor unit and the user set temperature. The greater the difference between the two, k i,j The larger the value of (2). The smaller the difference between the two is, k i,j The smaller the value of (c). Q (Q) i,j And the rated output power of the j-th indoor unit is started. l (L) i,k And the installation characteristic coefficient of the kth shutdown/standby indoor unit. Q (Q) i,k And the rated output power of the kth indoor unit is started. The sum of k and j is equal to the total number n of indoor units.
As shown in conjunction with fig. 3, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for air conditioning thermal control of a multi-split air conditioner, including:
s101, the processor responds to a heating instruction of the air conditioner, and determines an initial target frequency of the compressor according to information of the indoor unit and indoor and outdoor temperature information. The information of the indoor unit comprises an installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit, rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is started and rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is shut down/standby.
S102, the processor controls the compressor to operate at an initial target frequency.
S203, the processor acquires a target condensing temperature of the compressor; and correcting the target condensing temperature of the compressor according to the indoor temperature change condition of each starting indoor unit.
Here, the target condensing temperature of the compressor is a set value. Typically, it is determined from the outdoor ambient temperature. If the outdoor ambient temperature is lower than-6 ℃, the target condensation temperature (saturation temperature) is 43 ℃. When the outdoor ambient temperature is higher than 4 ℃, the target condensation temperature is 48 ℃. When the outdoor ambient temperature is between-6 ℃ and 4 ℃, the target condensation temperature is between 43 ℃ and 48 ℃, and is positively correlated with the outdoor ambient temperature. The above examples do not impose a mandatory requirement on the temperature values and may fluctuate appropriately.
By detecting the condensing pressure of the compressor, the actual condensing temperature of the compressor is obtained. The condensing pressure has a corresponding relationship with the condensing temperature. Generally, the operating frequency of the compressor is reduced when the actual condensing temperature of the compressor is greater than the target condensing temperature. And when the actual condensing temperature of the compressor is smaller than the target condensing temperature, the operating frequency of the compressor is increased. However, the target value of the condensing temperature is not suitable for each indoor unit to be started up due to the difference between the ambient temperature of each indoor unit and the set temperature. Based on the above-mentioned problems, the embodiment of the present disclosure corrects the target condensing temperature of the compressor according to the indoor temperature change condition. As can be appreciated, as the air conditioner operates, the indoor heating demand load of the indoor unit is turned on gradually becomes smaller. The output capacity of the compressor is matched with the load condition of the indoor unit through the dynamic correction of the target condensation temperature. Which helps to fine tune the output capacity of the compressor according to the indoor temperature variation. Thereby realizing energy saving of the air conditioning system.
Optionally, in step S203, the processor corrects the target condensation temperature of the compressor according to the indoor temperature change condition, including:
s231, the processor calculates the temperature difference and the temperature difference change rate of each startup indoor unit.
S232, the processor determines the temperature difference correction coefficient according to the relationship among the temperature difference, the temperature difference change rate and the temperature difference correction coefficient.
S233, the processor calculates the corrected target condensation temperature according to the temperature difference correction coefficient and the target condensation temperature.
Wherein T is co ’=[T co ×Σξ j ]÷j;
T co ' is the corrected target condensing temperature, T co For target condensing temperature, ζ j And the temperature difference correction coefficient is the temperature difference correction coefficient of the j-th indoor unit, and j is the number of the indoor units.
Here, the temperature difference of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is started refers to the difference between the current indoor temperature and the set temperature, and the temperature difference change rate refers to the change rate of the difference. The indoor current temperature of the indoor unit can be obtained by detecting the return air temperature of the air conditioner or by detecting a temperature sensor arranged indoors. For example t ai,j The return air temperature t of the j-th indoor unit set,j The set temperature of the indoor unit of the j-th startup indoor unit is set. The difference delta t j =t set,j -t ai,j The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the Rate of change of temperature difference epsilon=Δt j (n)-Δt j (n-1), n indicating the number of times the difference is calculated. Based on the temperature difference and the temperature difference change rate of each starting indoor unit, determining the temperature difference correction coefficient xi of the starting indoor unit j . The larger the temperature difference is, the larger the volatilization capacity of the corresponding indoor unit is. The larger the temperature difference change rate is, the faster the indoor temperature of the corresponding starting indoor machine tends to the temperature set by the user. Thus, by these two parameters, the temperature difference correction coefficient is determined. The larger the temperature difference, the larger the temperature difference correction coefficient. The larger the temperature difference change rate is, the larger the temperature difference correction coefficient is. Further, temperature difference correction coefficients of all the starting indoor units are obtained, and target condensing temperature of the compressor is corrected based on the temperature difference correction coefficients. Thus, the target condensing temperature of the compressor is more similar to the real-time load demand of the indoor unit.
Optionally, in step S232, the processor determines a temperature difference correction coefficient according to the relationship between the temperature difference, the temperature difference change rate and the temperature difference correction coefficient, including:
the processor acquires the temperature difference correction coefficient by adopting a fuzzy control table look-up mode based on a relation table of the temperature difference, the temperature difference change rate and the temperature difference correction coefficient.
Specifically, the relationship is shown in Table 1. Wherein, the numerical distribution is gradually reduced from left to right and from top to bottom. I.e. upper left corner q 11 The numerical value of (2) is as high as 1.2, the lower right corner q 88 The value of (2) is at least as 0.6. As an example, at the difference Δt j Together with the rate of change of the temperature difference ε, q in Table 1 is determined 44 When not directly add q 44 As a temperature difference correction coefficient. But obtains the sum q by fuzzy control look-up table 44 Adjacent four values q 34 、q 43 、q 54 、q 45 . The average value of the four values is taken as a temperature difference correction coefficient, namely zeta j =(q 34 +q 43 +q 54 +q 45 )/4. Thus, the purpose of fine control can be achieved. When the values determined by the difference and the rate of change of the temperature difference are the side-most rows or columns in table 1, the adjacent values obtained by the fuzzy control lookup table are two or three.
TABLE 1
As shown in conjunction with fig. 5, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for air conditioning thermal control of a multi-split air conditioner, including:
s101, the processor responds to a heating instruction of the air conditioner, and determines an initial target frequency of the compressor according to information of the indoor unit and indoor and outdoor temperature information. The information of the indoor unit comprises an installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit, rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is started and rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is shut down/standby.
S102, the processor controls the compressor to operate at an initial target frequency.
S303, the processor determines the dynamic target superheat degree of the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit according to the indoor temperature of each starting indoor unit.
S304, the processor adjusts the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve of the outdoor unit according to the dynamic target superheat degree.
The electronic expansion valve of the outdoor unit is usually adjusted according to the superheat degree of the outlet of the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit. In order to prevent the liquid return of the compressor and fully exert the heat exchange capability of the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit, the degree of superheat of the outlet is generally a fixed value such as SH =3K. However, in actual control, the indoor load is varied. The outdoor unit electronic expansion valve needs to be flexibly controlled so as to adjust the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant in the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit. The flexible adjustment of the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit is realized to save energy. Specifically, the dynamic target superheat degree SH O =[j×SH Reference value of O ]Σζj; wherein, xi j For the temperature difference correction coefficient, the determination is described in detail above. SH Reference value of O For example, 3K for a set reference value. And then the size of the outdoor machine electronic expansion valve is adjusted through the dynamic target superheat degree. If the dynamic target superheat degree is reduced, the opening degree of the outdoor electronic expansion valve needs to be reduced. And if the dynamic target superheat degree is increased, the opening degree of the outdoor electronic expansion valve is increased. When the outdoor electronic expansion valve is regulated, a superheat threshold interval can be set. And adjusting the operation frequency of the compressor according to the relation between the dynamic target superheat degree and the superheat region threshold value interval. If the dynamic target superheat degree is smaller than the minimum value of the superheat degree threshold value interval, the zeta is indicated j Too large, the compressor has a risk of liquid back. The operating frequency of the compressor needs to be increased. When the superheat degree of the dynamic target is larger than the maximum value of the superheat degree threshold value interval, the zeta is indicated j Too small, the operating frequency of the compressor may be correspondingly reduced.
As shown in fig. 6, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides another method for air conditioning thermal control of a multi-split air conditioner, including:
s101, the processor responds to the refrigerating instruction of the air conditioner, and determines the initial target frequency of the compressor according to the information of the indoor unit and the indoor and outdoor temperature information. The information of the indoor unit comprises an installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit, rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is started and rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is shut down/standby.
S102, the processor controls the compressor to operate at an initial target frequency.
S403, the processor acquires the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature of each startup indoor unit; the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature is positively correlated with the difference value between the return air temperature and the set temperature of each starting indoor unit.
S404, the processor adjusts the opening of the electronic expansion valve of the corresponding startup indoor unit according to the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature.
In general, after the indoor units are started, the corresponding target liquid pipe temperature is a unified value of all the indoor units, so that each starting indoor unit cannot be adjusted according to the indoor load condition. When the indoor load is small, such as spring and autumn, the indoor unit is easy to be frequently started and shut down. And further, the indoor environment temperature fluctuation is larger, and the user experience is reduced. In contrast, the embodiment of the disclosure obtains the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature of each startup indoor unit; and the opening degree of the indoor machine electronic expansion valve is controlled by the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature. Here, the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature depends on the real-time temperature and the target temperature in the room. Generally, the closer the real-time indoor temperature is to the target temperature, the smaller the value of the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature is, and the electronic expansion valve needs to be closed. By reducing the flow of the refrigerant, the output load of the air conditioning system is reduced. Thus, the indoor unit can be prevented from being shut down due to the fact that the indoor unit enters a thermal shutdown state (namely, is thermally off) too early. And avoid the problem of large indoor temperature fluctuation caused by restarting (i.e. thermo on) the indoor unit and increased energy consumption caused by starting. The electronic expansion valve of the indoor unit is controlled by adopting the temperature of the dynamic target liquid pipe, so that the electronic expansion valve is more energy-saving and is also beneficial to maintaining the stability of the indoor temperature.
Specifically, the return air temperature of each indoor unit is detected according to a set detection period, and the difference delta t between the return air temperature and the set temperature is calculated based on the detection period i,j =t set,j -t in,j . In the adjacent calculation period, the smaller the difference value is, the dynamic target liquid tube temperature T ol,j The smaller the value of (c). The change rate of the difference value and the value of the dynamic target liquid tube temperature can be in a linear relationship, such as a curve 1 in fig. 7. In other words, the closer the indoor unit temperature is to the set temperature, the faster the value change of the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature becomes, as shown by curve 2 in fig. 7. Thus, compared with the curve 1, the curve 2 can realize fine control, and further saves more energy.
Referring to fig. 8, another method for controlling refrigeration of a multi-split air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes:
s101, the processor responds to the refrigerating instruction of the air conditioner, and determines the initial target frequency of the compressor according to the information of the indoor unit and the indoor and outdoor temperature information. The information of the indoor unit comprises an installation characteristic coefficient of the indoor unit, rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is started and rated output power of the indoor unit when the indoor unit is shut down/standby.
S102, the processor controls the compressor to operate at an initial target frequency.
S403, the processor acquires the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature of each startup indoor unit; the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature is positively correlated with the difference value between the return air temperature and the set temperature of each starting indoor unit.
S404, the processor adjusts the opening of the electronic expansion valve of the corresponding startup indoor unit according to the dynamic target liquid pipe temperature.
S505, the processor obtains the relative supercooling degree of each startup indoor unit.
And S506, the processor controls the electronic expansion valve of the shutdown/standby indoor unit to be closed under the condition that the relative supercooling degree of any one or more startup indoor units is greater than a first threshold value so as to recover the refrigerant.
S507, the processor controls the electronic expansion valve of the shutdown/standby indoor unit to be opened under the condition that the relative supercooling degree of any one startup indoor unit is smaller than a second threshold value so as to release the refrigerant.
Here, in the process of adjusting the electronic expansion valve of the indoor unit, there may be a relatively large or small relative supercooling degree of one or some indoor units. I.e. the total amount of circulating refrigerant of the air conditioning system is not optimal. In this case, it is necessary to adjust the electronic expansion valve of the shutdown/standby indoor unit to release or recover the refrigerant stored therein. Wherein the relative supercooling degree Sc i,j =Tc-T l,j The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the Tc is condensation temperature corresponding to the detected pressure of the high-pressure sensor of the outdoor unit, tl and j are the temperature of the liquid pipe of the j-th indoor unit. Specifically, when the supercooling degree of each startup indoor unit is within a preset range, the electronic expansion valve of the shutdown/standby indoor unit is not regulated. The preset range can be set to [5,25 ]]. When the relative supercooling degree of at least one startup indoor unit is larger than a first threshold value (namely larger than 25), the electronic expansion valve of the shutdown/standby indoor unit is controlled to be closed so as to recover the refrigerant. Relative to any indoor unit when starting upAnd when the supercooling degree is smaller than a second threshold value (namely smaller than 5), controlling the electronic expansion valve of the shutdown/standby indoor unit to be opened. Thus, the total amount of circulating refrigerant in the system is optimized by controlling the electronic expansion valve in the shutdown/standby state. Therefore, the system power is optimal, and energy conservation is realized.
