Description

공기조화기의 정온 제습 제어 방법Controlling Constant Temperature Dehumidification of Air Conditioners

본 발명은 공기조화기를 제어하는 방법에 관한 것으로서, 특히 히터를 이용하여 실내의 온도와 습도를 적절하게 유지시킬 수 있도록 히터를 구비한 공기조화기를 제어하는 공기조화기의 정온 제습 제어 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for controlling an air conditioner, and more particularly, to a method for controlling the constant temperature dehumidification of an air conditioner for controlling an air conditioner having a heater so as to properly maintain a room temperature and humidity using a heater. .

일반적으로 에어컨은 냉매의 증발시 발생되는 흡열 작용을 이용하여 실내의 온도를 낮추는 역할을 하게 된다. 따라서, 에어컨의 내부에는 냉매가 증발되는 증발기가 구비되어 있고, 증발기는 열흡수 효율을 높이기 위하여 다수개의 핀을 구비하고 있다.In general, the air conditioner serves to lower the temperature of the room by using an endothermic action generated when the refrigerant evaporates. Therefore, the inside of the air conditioner is provided with an evaporator to evaporate the refrigerant, the evaporator is provided with a plurality of fins to increase the heat absorption efficiency.

그런데, 실내의 온도와 실외 온도 사이의 온도차가 너무 클 경우 냉방병에 걸릴 위험이 있으므로 실내의 온도가 항상 적정한 온도를 유지하도록 공기조화기를 제어할 필요가 있고, 장마철과 같은 경우에는 실내의 습도가 매우 높아 불쾌지수가 커지게 되므로 습도를 어느 정도 낮춰줄 필요가 있다. 이러한 요구에 부응하여 나타난 것이 에어컨의 내부에 히터를 장착한 타입이다.However, if the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the outdoor temperature is too large, there is a risk of cooling disease. Therefore, it is necessary to control the air conditioner so that the indoor temperature is always kept at an appropriate temperature. The higher the discomfort index, the higher the humidity needs to be reduced. In response to these demands, a heater is mounted inside the air conditioner.

히터가 부착된 에어컨은 도 1에 도시된 바와 같이 흡입구(11)와 토출구(12)가 각각 형성된 케이스(10)와, 상기 케이스(10)의 내부에 위치되고 냉매의 증발열을 이용하여 공기를 냉각시키는 증발기(13)와, 상기 증발기(13)에 의해 냉각된 공기를 상기 토출구(12)측으로 압송하여 실내로 토출시키는 송풍 장치(15)와, 상기 송풍 장치(15)의 상측 또는 하측에 설치되는 히터(14)로 구성되어 있다.As shown in FIG. 1, an air conditioner equipped with a heater is provided with a case 10 having an inlet 11 and an outlet 12, respectively, and is positioned inside the case 10 and cools the air by using evaporation heat of the refrigerant. An evaporator 13 to be discharged, a blower 15 for pumping air cooled by the evaporator 13 to the discharge port 12, and discharged into the room; and an upper side or a lower side of the blower 15. The heater 14 is comprised.

상기 송풍 장치(15)는 팬(15b)과 직결되어 팬(15b)을 회전시킴으로써 흡입구(11)를 통해 실내 공기를 흡입하고 토출구(12)를 통해 냉각 공기를 토출시키는 전동기(15a)와, 상기 팬(15b)의 주변에 위치되고 내부에 형성된 유로를 통해 공기의 흐름을 유도하는 가이드 하우징(15c)으로 구성되어 있다.The blower 15 is directly connected to the fan 15b to rotate the fan 15b to suck the indoor air through the suction port 11 and discharge the cooling air through the discharge port 12, and the It is comprised by the guide housing 15c which is located in the periphery of the fan 15b, and guides the flow of air through the flow path formed in the inside.

상기와 같이 구성된 종래의 히터가 부착된 에어컨은 냉방 도중에 히터를 이용하여 실내 온도가 너무 내려가지 않도록 하거나 보조 난방용으로 사용하도록 되어 있다.The conventional air conditioner with a heater configured as described above is to use the heater during cooling so as not to drop the room temperature too much or to use it for auxiliary heating.

송풍 장치(15)내의 전동기(15a)가 작동되면 팬(15b)의 회전에 따라 실내 공기가 유입구(11)를 통해 케이스(10) 내로 유입된다. 유입된 공기는 증발기(13)를 통과하면서 냉각된 후 송풍 장치(15)의 가이드 하우징(15c)에 형성된 유로를 따라 이동된 후 토출구(12)를 통해 실내로 배출된다.When the electric motor 15a in the blower 15 is operated, indoor air is introduced into the case 10 through the inlet 11 as the fan 15b is rotated. The introduced air is cooled while passing through the evaporator 13 and then moved along the flow path formed in the guide housing 15c of the blower 15 and then discharged into the room through the discharge port 12.

배출된 냉기는 실내를 냉방하게 되는데, 실내 온도가 너무 낮아지거나 습도가 높아지면 건강에 좋지 않게 되므로 증발기(13)에서 냉각된 공기의 온도를 어느 정도 높여줄 필요가 있다. 따라서, 히터(14)에 전원을 인가하여 냉각된 공기를 일정 정도 가온한 후 실내로 배출하여 실내의 온도가 너무 낮아지지 않게 한다.The discharged cold air is cooled in the room. If the room temperature becomes too low or the humidity increases, it is not good for health. Therefore, it is necessary to raise the temperature of the air cooled in the evaporator 13 to some extent. Therefore, by applying power to the heater 14, the cooled air is heated to a certain degree and then discharged into the room so that the temperature of the room is not too low.

또, 증발기(13)를 작동시키지 않고 송풍 장치(15)만을 작동시키면 실내 공기를 순환시킬 수 있는데, 이때 히터(14)를 가동시키면 히터(14)에 의해 공기가 가열되어 실내의 온도를 높일 수 있으므로 보조 난방용으로 사용될 수도 있다.In addition, if only the blower 15 is operated without operating the evaporator 13, the indoor air can be circulated. If the heater 14 is operated, the air is heated by the heater 14 to raise the indoor temperature. It can also be used for auxiliary heating.

그러나, 상기와 같이 구성된 종래의 히터가 부착된 에어컨은 히터의 용량이 일정하여 실내 온도 및 습도에 따라 히터에 인가되는 전원을 자주 온/오프 시켜야 하므로 전력 소모가 많고 사용이 불편한 문제점이 있다.However, the conventional air conditioner with the heater configured as described above has a problem in that power consumption is high and inconvenience in use because the capacity of the heater is required to frequently turn on / off the power applied to the heater according to the room temperature and humidity.

본 발명은 상기한 종래 기술의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출된 것으로서, 흡입구로 흡입된 공기의 온도 및 습도에 따라 히터의 용량을 가변적으로 제어함으로써, 정온 제습 효과를 극대화시킬 수 있는 공기조화기의 정온 제습 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art, by controlling the capacity of the heater in accordance with the temperature and humidity of the air sucked into the inlet, the temperature of the air conditioner can maximize the dehumidification effect The purpose is to provide a dehumidification method.

도 2는 본 발명에 의한 공기조화기의 정온 제습 제어 방법의 제어 흐름이 도시된 순서도이다.2 is a flowchart illustrating a control flow of the method for controlling the constant temperature dehumidification of the air conditioner according to the present invention.

상기한 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 히터가 설치된 공기조화기를 제어하는 방법에 있어서, 냉방 또는 제습 운전중인지를 확인하는 제1단계와, 실내 온도와 습도를 검지하는 제2단계와, 검지된 온도 및 습도를 기준 온도 및 습도와 비교하는 제3단계와, 상기 제3단계의 비교 결과에 따라 히터의 동작을 제어하는 제4단계로 구성된 것을 특징으로 한다.The present invention for achieving the above object is a method for controlling an air conditioner equipped with a heater, the first step of checking whether the cooling or dehumidification operation, the second step of detecting the room temperature and humidity, and the detected temperature And a third step of comparing humidity to a reference temperature and humidity, and a fourth step of controlling the operation of the heater according to the comparison result of the third step.

이하, 본 발명의 바람직한 실시 예를 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

본 발명의 공기조화기의 정온 제습 방법은 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이 냉방 또는 제습 운전중인지를 확인하는 제1단계와, 실내 온도와 습도를 검지하는 제2단계와, 검지된 온도 및 습도를 기준 온도 및 습도와 비교하는 제3단계와, 상기 제3단계의 비교 결과에 따라 히터의 동작을 제어하는 제4단계로 구성된다.The constant temperature dehumidification method of the air conditioner of the present invention includes a first step of checking whether the cooling or dehumidifying operation is performed as shown in FIG. 2, a second step of detecting room temperature and humidity, and the detected temperature and humidity. And a third step of comparing the temperature and humidity, and a fourth step of controlling the operation of the heater according to the comparison result of the third step.

상기 제4단계는 실내 온도와 습도가 모두 기준온도 및 기준 습도를 초과하면 히터가 부분 동작하는 제1과정과, 습도가 기준 습도를 초과하고 온도는 기준에 못 미치면 히터를 전체적으로 가동시키는 제2과정과, 실내 온도와 습도가 모두 기준에 못 미치면 히터의 동작을 중지시키는 제3과정으로 구성된다.The fourth step is a first process in which the heater is partially operated when both the room temperature and the humidity exceeds the reference temperature and the reference humidity, and a second process of operating the heater as a whole when the humidity exceeds the reference humidity and the temperature is lower than the standard. And a third process of stopping the operation of the heater when both the room temperature and the humidity do not meet the criteria.

상기와 같이 구성된 본 발명의 공기조화기의 정온 제습 방법은 흡입구로 유입되는 공기의 온도와 습도를 감지하여 히터 용량을 가변적으로 제어하게 된다.Constant temperature dehumidification method of the air conditioner of the present invention configured as described above is to control the heater capacity by sensing the temperature and humidity of the air flowing into the inlet.

공기조화기에 전원이 인가되면 냉방 운전 또는 제습 운전중인지를 확인하고, 흡입구를 통해 유입된 공기의 온도와 습도를 감지한다. 유입된 공기의 온도와 습도로부터 실내 온도와 습도가 확인되면 기준 온도 t1 및 기준 습도 x1과 비교한다.When power is supplied to the air conditioner, it checks whether the cooling operation or the dehumidification operation is performed, and senses the temperature and humidity of the air introduced through the intake port. When the room temperature and humidity are identified from the temperature and humidity of the introduced air, it is compared with the reference temperature t1 and the reference humidity x1.

실내 온도가 기준 온도 t1 이상이고 실내 습도도 기준 습도 x1 이상이면 실내 공기는 고온 다습한 상태이므로 히터를 부분 작동시켜 습도를 떨어뜨리게 된다. 실내 온도가 기준 온도 t1 이하이고 실내 습도가 기준 습도 x1 이상이면 실내 공기는 저온 다습한 상태이므로 히터를 최대 용량으로 작동시켜 공기의 온도를 상승시킴과 동시에 습도를 떨어뜨리게 된다. 실내 온도가 기준 온도 t1 이상이고 실내 습도가 기준 습도 x1 이하이면 실내 공기는 적당한 상태를 유지하고 있으므로, 히터의 동작을 중지시킨다. 물론, 공기조화기의 증발기는 계속 작동되어 냉방 작용을 계속하고 있다.If the room temperature is above the reference temperature t1 and the room humidity is also above the reference humidity x1, since the indoor air is in a high temperature and high humidity state, the heater is partially operated to reduce the humidity. If the room temperature is below the reference temperature t1 and the room humidity is above the reference humidity x1, the indoor air is in a low temperature and high humidity state, thereby operating the heater at the maximum capacity to increase the temperature of the air and at the same time dropping the humidity. If the room temperature is equal to or higher than the reference temperature t1 and the room humidity is equal to or lower than the reference humidity x1, the air is kept in a proper state, and thus the operation of the heater is stopped. Of course, the evaporator of the air conditioner continues to operate and continue cooling.

이와 같이, 본 발명의 공기조화기의 정온 제습 방법은 공기조화기를 작동시킬 때 실내 온도와 습도를 감지하여 히터의 용량을 제어하여 실내 온도 및 습도를 항상 적절한 상태로 유지시킬 수 있도록 하는 이점이 있다.As described above, the constant temperature dehumidification method of the air conditioner of the present invention has an advantage of controlling the capacity of the heater by sensing room temperature and humidity when operating the air conditioner so that the room temperature and humidity can be always maintained in an appropriate state. .
