Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide an air conditioner in which a low-cost structure is sufficient to air condition a room based on a body temperature of a person existing in the room. CONSTITUTION:An air conditioner 1 calculates based on indoor condition data detected by detectors 11-14 for detecting at least indoor conditions and elapsed day body temperature pattern data stored in an elapsed day/elapsed year body temperature pattern memory 6 corresponding to present day and time calculated from reference day and time by elapsed day/elapsed time calculating means 7. Accordingly, it is not necessary to use, for example, an expensive radiation thermometer for actually measuring a body temperature, but can realize an extremely low-cost air conditioner 1. Further, if the body temperature is obtained by considering human wearing amount and activation amount and the conditioner 1 is controlled based on the body temperature, more comfortable air conditioning can be performed.

As shown in FIG. 4, the amount of clothing of the human body is based on the image data from the image recognition device 8 and the area of the entire human body is set to 1 and the area of the portion where the clothing is worn. Determined as a percentage. The figure (a) shows an example when the amount of clothing (hatched portion) is small, and the same figure (b) shows the example when the amount of clothing is large. Further, the amount of activity of the human body is determined by comparing the image data collected at the previous sampling time with the image data at the current sampling time and the distance traveled by the person at a fixed sampling interval. Furthermore, the comfort calculation means 4 is
The current comfort feeling felt by the human body is calculated by the correlation expression (equation (1)) in which the skin temperature of each part of the human body from the site-specific skin temperature calculating means 5 is weighted. “Comfort” = A 1 · T 1 + A 2 · T 2 + A 3 · T 3 + B 0 (1) where T 1 is the skin temperature of the human head T 2 is the skin temperature of the human chest T 3: the body of the lower skin temperature a 1: weighting coefficient for the head a 2: weight factor chest a 3: lower the weighting factor B 0: constant above correlation equation, exposing the person under various thermal environment Based on the results obtained by the subject test, such as measuring the skin temperature of each part of the human body and having the person feel the feeling of comfort at that time by a questionnaire, the above-mentioned feeling of comfort and each part of the human body It was obtained by determining the correlation with the skin temperature. Then, for example, if the currently calculated comfort level is not within the preset optimum range, in order to set the comfort level in the optimum range, the set temperature of the room air is set to what degree and the set air velocity is set to several meters / m 2. The setting means 3 determines, as described above, whether the time should be set to seconds. And the control means 2
Adjust the command values such as the inverter frequency of the power supply to the compressor and the indoor fan rotation speed that regulates the ventilation volume of the indoor heat exchanger based on each of the above-determined set values. Output to the motor. Therefore, according to the air conditioner 1 of this embodiment, the skin temperature of the human body is at least the condition data in the air-conditioned space from the detectors 11 to 15 and the circadian body temperature pattern corresponding to the date and time at that time. Since it is calculated based on the data and used for controlling the air conditioner 1, it is not necessary to use an expensive radiation thermometer or the like for measuring the skin temperature of the human body as in the conventional device, and the purpose is extremely inexpensive. It is possible to control the air conditioner. In addition, since the body temperature of the human body is calculated in consideration of the clothing amount data and the activity amount data as well, it is possible to obtain a fine skin temperature of each part of the human body,
Further, it is possible to perform control in consideration of the feeling of comfort felt by a person. Therefore, it is possible to improve the comfort feeling of the position of the person in the room.
