  • Various embodiments of a processing method and apparatus, an air conditioning device and a storage medium provided in the embodiments of the application will be described below.
  • In a first aspect, an embodiment of the application provides a processing method, the method is applied to a processing apparatus, and the processing apparatus may be deployed in an air conditioning device. A processing process provided in the embodiment of the application will be described below.
  • FIG. 1 exemplifies a schematic flowchart of a processing method. With reference to contents shown in FIG. 1, the processing method may include, but is not limited to the following operations S101 to S104 shown in FIG. 1.
  • In operation S101, an air conditioning device determines that pressure of the air conditioning device is greater than a pressure threshold.
  • The pressure threshold is a standard for determining whether a system pressure of the air conditioning device is in a normal range. A specific value of the pressure threshold is not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation.
  • The operation S101 may be implemented as follows. The air conditioning device detects the system pressure of the air conditioning device through a pressure detector, and determines a relationship between the pressure and the pressure threshold; if the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold, it is determined that the pressure of the air conditioning device is greater than the pressure threshold.
  • A specific type of the pressure detector is not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation.
  • When the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold, a pressure switch may be turned off.
  • In operation S102, when the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold, the air conditioning device obtains a first frequency of a compressor of the air conditioning device during operation.
  • The first frequency is an initial operation frequency of the compressor when the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold.
  • Exemplarily, the operation S102 may be implemented as follows. When the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold, the air conditioning device detects a frequency of the compressor of the air conditioning device during operation through a frequency detector, and takes the frequency as the first frequency.
  • The first frequency may be detected by direct measurement, or may be calculated after detection and measurement. Manners of obtaining the first frequency are not specifically limited in the embodiment of the application. Exemplarily, the first frequency may be measured through a frequency table.
  • In operation S103, when the first frequency meets a first condition, the air conditioning device controls the air conditioning device to shut down.
  • The first condition is intended to characterize a frequency condition where the air conditioning device needs to shut down. Specific contents of the first condition are not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be configured according to an actual situation.
  • After obtaining the first frequency, the air conditioning device determines whether the first frequency meets the first condition, and if the first condition is met, the air conditioning device is controlled to shut down.
  • Specific implementations of controlling the air conditioning device to shut down are not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation. Exemplarily, the air conditioning device sends a shutdown control signal through a controller, and controls power supply of the air conditioning device through the shutdown control signal, thereby shutting down the air conditioning device.
  • In operation S104, when the first frequency does not meet the first condition, the air conditioning device reduces frequency of the compressor during operation to a second frequency, and controls state of the air conditioning device based on the second frequency.
  • The state includes shutdown or operation.
  • The second frequency is a frequency after the frequency of the compressor is reduced.
  • Since failure to meet the first condition may characterize that the air conditioning device may not need to shut down, the operation S104 may be implemented as follows. The air conditioning device determines that the first frequency does not meet the first condition, reduces the frequency of the compressor during operation, operates the compressor at the second frequency, and then controls the state of the air conditioning device based on the second frequency.
  • Manners of reducing the operation frequency of the compressor are not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be configured according to an actual situation.
  • In a possible implementation, the frequency may be reduced based on a fixed value, that is, a frequency value by which the frequency is reduced each time is fixed. For example, the first frequency is 100, and then it is sequentially reduced to 95, 90, etc.
  • In another possible implementation, the frequency may be proportionally reduced based on a previous frequency value. For example, the first frequency is 100, and then it is sequentially reduced to 90, 81, etc.
  • It may be understood that the frequency may also be reduced based on other manners, which are not listed here one by one.
  • Manners of controlling the state of the air conditioning device based on the second frequency are not limited and may be determined according to an actual situation. For example, the manner of controlling the state of the air conditioning device based on the second frequency may be the same as the control manner corresponding to the first frequency, or may be different from the control manner corresponding to the first frequency.
  • In this way, after the frequency is reduced, the system pressure of the air conditioning device may be reduced, to achieve a state of operation, thereby increasing the probability of operation and improving operation efficiency and use efficiency of the air conditioning device.
  • The processing method provided in the embodiment of the application is applied to an air conditioning device, and includes the following operations. It is determined that pressure of the air conditioning device is greater than a pressure threshold. When the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold, a first frequency of a compressor of the air conditioning device during operation is obtained. When the first frequency meets a first condition, the air conditioning device is controlled to shut down. When the first frequency does not meet the first condition, frequency of the compressor during operation is reduced to a second frequency, and state of the air conditioning device is controlled based on the second frequency, here the state includes shutdown or operation.
  • It may be seen that with the solutions of the application, when the pressure of the air conditioning device is greater than the pressure threshold, the air conditioning device does not shut down directly, instead, a specific analysis is performed, so that the air conditioning device shuts down when the first condition is met, the frequency is reduced when the first condition is not met, and the state of the air conditioning device is controlled based on the frequency after frequency reduction. Therefore, the air conditioning device may shut down or continuously operate when the pressure is greater than the pressure threshold. In this way, on the first hand, when the first condition is met, the air conditioning device is controlled to shut down, to protect pressure components in the air conditioning device and avoid damage to the pressure components; on the second hand, when the first condition is not met, a frequency reduction process is performed to control operation of the air conditioning device as much as possible, thereby improving the operation efficiency.
  • A process of controlling the state of the air conditioning device based on the second frequency in operation S 104 will be described below.
  • As shown in FIG. 2, the process may include, but is not limited to the following operations S1041 and S1042.
  • In operation S1041, when the second frequency meets the first condition, the air conditioning device controls the air conditioning device to shut down.
  • The operation S1041 may be implemented as follows. The air conditioning device determines whether the second frequency meets the first condition, and when the second frequency meets the first condition, the air conditioning device is controlled to shut down. Determination of whether the second frequency meets the first condition and the process of controlling the air conditioning device to shut down may refer to detailed descriptions of the air conditioning device controlling the air conditioning device to shut down when the first frequency meets the first condition in operation S103, which are not elaborated here.
  • In operation S1042, when the second frequency does not meet the first condition, the air conditioning device obtains a current difference of the air conditioning device, and controls the state of the air conditioning device based on the current difference.
  • The current difference is intended to indicate a reduction value in current when the frequency is reduced. Based on the current difference, it may be determined whether the pressure of the air conditioning device after the frequency is reduced has returned to normal, so that the air conditioning device may continuously operate.
  • The current difference is a difference obtained by subtracting a first current of the air conditioning device from a reference current of the air conditioning device.
  • The reference current is a current of the air conditioning device during operation at the first frequency, and the first current is a current of the air conditioning device during operation at the second frequency.
  • The operation S1042 may be implemented as follows. When it is determined that the second frequency does not meet the first condition, the air conditioning device obtains the current of the air conditioning device during operation at the first frequency as the reference current, obtains the current of the air conditioning device during operation at the second frequency as the first current, takes the difference obtained by subtracting the first current from the reference current as the current difference, and controls the air conditioning device to shut down or continuously operate based on the current difference.
  • Specific manners of controlling the air conditioning device to shut down or continuously operate based on the current difference, are not limited and may be configured according to an actual situation.
  • A process of controlling the state of the air conditioning device based on the current difference in operation S1042 will be described below.
  • As shown in FIG. 3, in a possible implementation, the process may include, but is not limited to the following operations S10421 and S 10422.
  • In operation S10421, when the current difference is greater than a first threshold, the air conditioning device controls the air conditioning device to continuously operate at the second frequency.
  • The first threshold is intended to indicate whether the current difference is sufficient to enable the air conditioning device to continuously operate. A specific value of the first threshold is not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation.
  • Exemplarily, the first threshold may be an empirical value, or a theoretical value calculated according to certain parameters.
  • The operation S10421 may be implemented as follows. The air conditioning device determines a magnitude relationship between the current difference and the first threshold, and when the current difference is greater than the first threshold, controls the compressor of the air conditioning device to continuously operate at the second frequency.
  • In operation S10422, when the current difference is less than or equal to the first threshold, the air conditioning device continuously reduces the frequency of the compressor during operation to a third frequency, takes the third frequency as a new second frequency, and controls the state of the air conditioning device based on the new second frequency.
  • The operation S10422 may be implemented as follows. When the current difference is less than or equal to the first threshold, the air conditioning device continuously reduces the frequency of the compressor during operation to a third frequency, takes the third frequency as a new second frequency, determines whether the third frequency meets the first condition, and when the third frequency meets the first condition, controls the air conditioning device to shut down; when the third frequency does not meet the first condition, obtains a new current difference of the air conditioning device, and controls the state of the air conditioning device based on the new current difference.
  • For example, when the current difference is greater than the first threshold, the air conditioning device is controlled to continuously operate at the third frequency; when the current difference is less than or equal to the first threshold, the frequency of the compressor during operation is continuously reduced to a fourth frequency, the fourth frequency is taken as a new second frequency, and the state of the air conditioning device is controlled based on the new second frequency.
  • The new current difference is a difference obtained by subtracting a second current of the air conditioning device from the reference current of the air conditioning device, and the second current is a current of the air conditioning device during operation at the third frequency.
  • The process of reducing the frequency of the compressor during operation to the third frequency may refer to detailed descriptions of the air conditioning device reducing the frequency of the compressor during operation to the second frequency in operation S104, which are not elaborated here.
  • A process of the air conditioning device reducing the frequency of the compressor during operation to the second frequency in operation S104 will be described below.
  • In a possible implementation, the air conditioning device may reduce the frequency of the compressor during operation to the second frequency based on a first formula.
  • The first formula includes F n+1 = n × M × F - (n - 1) × F, F n+1 represents the second frequency, F represents the first frequency, M is a reduction coefficient and M is greater than 0 and less than 1, n is a number of reductions and n is an integer equal to or greater than 0.
  • A specific value of the reduction coefficient is not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation. M is greater than 0 and less than 1. Exemplarily, M is 0.95.
  • For example, the first frequency is 100, and frequencies after sequential frequency reduction based on the first formula are 95, 90.
  • The first condition will be described in detail below.
  • In a possible implementation, the first condition may include: the frequency is less than or equal to a first frequency threshold.
  • A specific value of the first frequency threshold is not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation.
  • Exemplarily, the first frequency threshold may be a lower limit of an operable frequency of the compressor at a current ambient temperature.
  • It may be understood that the first frequency threshold may also be an actual empirical value.
  • In another possible implementation, the first condition may include: the frequency is greater than the first frequency threshold and is less than or equal to a second frequency threshold.
  • The second frequency threshold is greater than the first frequency threshold.
  • A specific value of the second frequency threshold is not limited in the embodiment of the application, and may be determined according to an actual situation.
  • Exemplarily, when the first frequency threshold is the lower limit of the operable frequency of the compressor at the current ambient temperature, the value of the second frequency threshold may include, but is not limited to the following first or second situation.
  • First situation: the second frequency threshold is an average value of an upper limit of the operable frequency of the compressor at the current ambient temperature and the lower limit of the operable frequency of the compressor at the current ambient temperature.
  • Second situation: the second frequency threshold meets a second formula.
  • The second formula includes F Y = F max F min F F min × F min

  • The processing method of the application has the following technical effects.
  • Comprehensive consideration on controlling the pressure switch to turn off due to excessive pressure of the compressor in various situations (the frequency of the compressor is too high, a heat exchanger is dirty or blocked, there are large indoor and outdoor loads, etc.) has been given, which fully protects the compressor, may best ensure normal use by the user, and avoid a risk of the user's complaints due to an extreme practice of stopping the compressor in unison after the pressure is too high, etc.
