Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to an air source heat pump unit, in particular to a method for detecting the frosting state of a heat exchanger by a temperature and humidity sensor. Background technique
[0002] For air source heat pumps, the weakest link in the current technology is the defrosting problem during winter operation. The frosting of the evaporator will lead to the deterioration of the performance of the air source heat pump and the decrease of the heat exchange capacity. The defrosting process increases the instability of the operation of the air source heat pump unit, resulting in a decrease in indoor comfort. The frosting of traditional heat exchangers uses the method of detecting the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the coil temperature. However, in different environments, whether frosting depends not only on temperature, but also on humidity is an important factor for frosting. In the case of complex changes, there a...
