Air conditioner and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an air conditioner and a control method thereof. The control method comprises the steps that outdoor temperature prediction information of the position where the air conditioneris located is obtained; according to the outdoor temperature prediction information, a condensation condition required to be reached when a frost and dew condensation event occurs in an indoor environment where an indoor unit of the air conditioner is located is determined; whether the indoor environment is about to reach the condensation condition is judged; if yes, the air conditioner is controlled to adjust the running state so as to prevent the indoor environment from the frost and dew condensation event. By means of the method, the air conditioner can automatically prevent the frost anddew condensation event from occurring, the intelligent degree is improved, and the air conditioner is particularly suitable for viewing buildings with large glass doors and windows.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to smart home appliances, in particular to an air conditioner and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] In autumn and winter, the outdoor temperature in some areas is low, which often leads to frost and dew condensation events on the glass windows or glass walls of buildings. When frost and dew condensation events occur, the frost or condensation on the glass will block the user's sight and cause inconvenience to the user. The defrosting process will consume additional heat from the indoor environment, and dripping water will occur, resulting in poor user experience. [0003] Some household appliances in the prior art can only be used to defrost or remove dew after the occurrence of frost and dew condensation events, and cannot prevent the occurrence of frost and dew condensation events in advance. The degree of intelligence is low and cannot meet the needs of current users. Contents of the invention [0004] ...

Problems solved by technology

When frost and dew condensation events occur, the frost or condensation on the glass will block the user's sight and cause inconvenience to the user. The defrosting process will consume additional heat in the indoor environment, and dripping will occur, resulting in poor user experience.

[0003] Some household appliances in the prior art can only be used to defrost or remove dew after the occurrence of frost condensation events, and cannot prevent the occurrence of frost condensation events in advance. The degree of intelligence is low, and it can no longer meet the needs of current users.
