Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a mean having capacity from being decreased by a method wherein a decreased temperature per unit hour of one of an indoor discharging air temperature and an indoor heat exchanger is detected, and a defrosting prohibiting interval is made short when the detected value is higher than a set value. CONSTITUTION:Since a frosting condition of an external heat exchanger 5 is generated when an outdoor temperature is low and an evaporation temperature of coolant within a freezing cycle is low, so the frosting temperature is detected by a sensing means for sensing a decreased temperature per unit time of the outdoor heat exchanger 5, indoor discharged air and the indoor heat exchanger 3, and defrosted and so the time required for defrosting operation is short and the reduction in temperature of the indoor area is less.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a defrosting operation control method for an air conditioner, and particularly to a method for detecting frost formation on an outdoor heat exchanger suitable for heating operation.

〔従来の技術〕[Conventional technology]

た。
When a conventional air conditioner is operated for heating under conditions of low outside temperature, frost forms on the outdoor heat exchanger, ventilation resistance gradually increases, the rotational speed of the outdoor fan decreases, and the air volume decreases. As a result, the amount of heat exchanged decreases, and the amount of air discharged indoors decreases, causing discomfort. Therefore, a defrost thermostat was used to detect the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger and defrost it.

Additionally, if the defrost thermostat were used to control the defrost operation only, defrosting would be performed frequently and the heating operation rate would drop. Natsu-sama, the defrost operation was controlled by a combination of the defrost thermostat and timer.

Additionally, if the operation is performed outdoors or under strong winds, even if the defrost operation has completed defrosting the outdoor heat exchanger, the temperature of the defrost thermometer will not rise and heating operation will not resume. For this reason, it is common practice to set a maximum time for defrosting operation.

In the above conventional technology, defrosting operation is carried out regularly, but in snowy regions and other areas where there is a lot of frost, the air volume of the outdoor fan decreases, which further reduces the evaporation temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger. However, frost formation is further promoted. As a result, the maximum heating capacity gradually decreases, and the indoor discharge air temperature also decreases. If defrosting operation is performed regularly under such conditions, the indoor discharge air temperature may be low or long before the next defrosting operation, resulting in insufficient heating capacity or longer defrosting operation time. It may be forced to return before it completely thaws, resulting in residual frost.

If there is residual frost, even if the heating operation is restarted, the heating capacity cannot be maximized, and the indoor discharge air temperature will drop significantly, reducing the average heating capacity and potentially impairing comfort. . In other words, in the conventional heating operation described above, no consideration is given to the decrease in the indoor temperature during the frosting state from the start of frosting of the heat exchanger to the defrosting operation, and even if the indoor temperature decreases, the predetermined time Because it does not defrost until the time has elapsed,
There was a problem with the average heating capacity decreasing.

The above purpose is to reduce the temperature drop per unit time of either the indoor discharge air temperature or the indoor heat exchanger in order to prevent frost formation on the outdoor heat exchanger and a drop in the indoor discharge air temperature during heating operation. This is achieved by shortening the defrost prohibition interval from the end of defrosting to the start of defrosting when the detected value is greater than the set value of temperature drop per unit time. .

Frost formation on the outdoor heat exchanger occurs when the outside air temperature is low and the evaporation temperature of the refrigerant in the refrigeration cycle is low. Since the frost forming temperature is sensed by the detection means that detects the drop and defrosting is performed, the time required for defrosting is short (changes in indoor temperature drop are small).

In a refrigeration cycle consisting of a compressor 1, a four-way valve 2, an indoor heat exchanger 3, an expansion valve 4, an outdoor heat exchanger 5, etc. as shown in Fig. 2, during heating operation, cold and hot flows as shown by the solid arrows. . Further, 6 is an indoor side blower, and 7 is an outdoor side blower, respectively, for heat exchange. An indoor discharge air temperature sensor 8 is provided so that the air discharged through the indoor heat exchanger 3 comes into contact with the indoor air discharge air temperature sensor 8, and an indoor air temperature sensor 8 is installed so that the temperature of the pipe on the inlet side or the outlet side of the indoor heat exchanger 3 can be detected. An inner heat exchanger temperature sensor 9 is provided.

Then, the indoor discharge air temperature drops, the indoor discharge air temperature sensor 8 detects this, and defrosting is started by a control means such as a microcomputer. Furthermore, if a heater is installed, there may be cases where the temperature of the discharged air does not noticeably change even if the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger 3 drops. At that time, the indoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 9 detects the temperature and defrosting is started by a control means such as a microcomputer. This is limited to when either one is detected, but if it is outside the set time, defrosting will not start until the normal set time has elapsed. FIG. 2 is a heating capacity curve showing the above changes. The solid line represents the case where the indoor discharge air temperature sensor 8 or the indoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 9 does not detect the temperature, and the broken line represents the case where the temperature is detected. In other words, if the amount of frost on the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is abnormally large, or if snow has fallen and adhered to the outdoor heat exchanger 5, defrost should be removed with a short heating operation time of Tl as shown by the broken line. By doing this, the overall heating capacity can be increased compared to the conventional heating operation for T2 hours shown by the solid line.Also, if the amount of frost on the outdoor heat exchanger 5 is normal, Since the high heating capacity as shown by the two-dot chain line is maintained, neither the temperature of the indoor discharge air nor the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger 3 decreases, so time T2 is set as the defrosting prohibition time.

According to the present invention, during heating operation under conditions of low outside air temperature, when frost begins to form on the outdoor heat exchanger and the heating capacity decreases, since the heating capacity increases extremely quickly, there is little change in the heating capacity, and the heating capacity decreases. This also leads to improved driving comfort.

In addition, if there is too much frost (or no frost), the defrosting prohibition time can be extended to extend the time during which a large heating capacity is maintained, resulting in an effective heat pump air conditioner.
