Embodiment Construction

[0030] Embodiments will be described in detail hereinafter, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0031] The air conditioner may include a cooling device that cools indoor air and supplies the air to the indoor space, and a heating device that heats the indoor air and supplies the air to the indoor space, or may include a cooling device that has a cooling function and a heating function. Cooling / heating units for both. The air conditioner can perform cooling or heating operations to bring the indoor temperature to the temperature set by the user. Alternatively, the air conditioner may perform an automatic operation to bring the indoor space to a condition that the user feels comfortable.

[0032] The conditions under which the user feels comfortable may vary according to indoor temperature and humidity. In addition, the temperature and humidity at which the user feels comfortable may vary according to seasons.

[0033] A temperature sensor may be...

Abstract

An air conditioner is disclosed, comprising a temperature sensor that senses a temperature of indoor air, a humidity sensor that senses a humidity of the indoor air, and a controller that uses the sensed temperature and humidity to calculate an indoor standard new effective temperature and an indoor relative humidity, and perform a comfort control operation based upon a result of the calculation.

Description

technical field [0001] An air conditioner and a method for controlling the air conditioner are disclosed herein. Background technique [0002] Air conditioning is well known. However, air conditioners have various disadvantages. Contents of the invention [0003] Aiming at the shortcomings of the prior art, the present application provides an air conditioner, including: a temperature sensor, which senses the temperature of the indoor air; a humidity sensor, which senses the humidity of the indoor air; and a controller, which uses the sensed temperature and humidity to calculate the indoor standard new effective temperature and the indoor relative humidity, and perform comfort control operations based on the calculated results. [0004] Preferably, the controller sets upper and lower limits of the standard new effective indoor temperature to define a comfort zone. [0005] Preferably, at least one of the upper limit or the lower limit is set differently according to cool...
