[0032] Example two: system workflow The working process of the system is divided into two stages: air-to-water and water storage and intelligent irrigation, as follows: 1. Air-to-water and water storage stage (1) Energy supply drive: the energy supply assembly 1 generates electricity through the wind turbine 11 or the solar photovoltaic panel 12, and drives the air compressor (integrated in the energy supply assembly) to work after voltage stabilization by the energy conversion controller 13, compressing the external air to 0.2 MPa; (2) Air pretreatment: the compressed air enters the air compression pipeline 2, first removes dust through the electrostatic dust removal module 21, and then pre-cools to 10°C through the vortex cooling fin 22 (the higher the environmental humidity, the lower the cooling temperature); (3) Underground condensation: the pretreated air enters the top air inlet cavity 31 of the underground temperature difference condensation assembly 3, flows along the multi-layer spiral condensation pipe 34, and exchanges heat with the low-temperature soil (8-12°C) below the frozen soil layer, and the moisture in the air condenses on the pipe wall (hydrophilic coating accelerates the condensation of water); (4) Water storage: the condensed water slides down the spiral condensation pipe 34 to the bottom condensation chamber 32, is collected through the guide slope 37, and then flows into the underground water storage tank 4 through the one-way check valve of the guide pipe 33, and the water level monitoring device records the water quantity in real time. 2. Intelligent irrigation stage (1) Data acquisition: the soil multi-parameter sensor 5 detects soil humidity and nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium concentrations every 30 minutes, and the data is transmitted to the Internet of Things control terminal 8 through the wireless transceiver module 81; (2) Strategy judgment: the irrigation strategy algorithm 82 of the Internet of Things control terminal 8 compares the detection data with the threshold value of the current growth stage, and if the soil humidity is below the lower limit or a certain type of nutrient is insufficient, the irrigation program is started; (3) Nutrient allocation: the nutrient dynamic allocation assembly 6 controls the micro-metering pump group 63 to extract the nutrient solution in the nitrogen source bin 621, the phosphorus source bin 622, and the potassium source bin 623 according to the proportion of the sensor feedback data (for example: if the soil nitrogen content is 200 mg / kg (lower than the threshold value of 300 mg / kg), 5 mL of urea solution per liter of water is added), and the nutrient solution and the water delivered by the underground water storage tank 4 are fully mixed in the mixing chamber 65 by the ultrasonic mixing device 64; (4) Precise irrigation: the mixed water and fertilizer solution enters the main pipe 71 of the multi-stage irrigation pipeline 7 through the shunt valve 61, and then drips evenly to the core area of the apple tree root system through the water outlet holes of the end capillary branch pipe 72; (5) Abnormal processing: if the underground water storage tank 4 water level is lower than 20% of the total volume (i.e. 100L), the Internet of Things control terminal 8 sends a water replenishment warning to the administrator's mobile phone through the GPRS module; if the concentration of some nutrients in the soil exceeds the standard (such as nitrogen content > 500mg / kg), the corresponding micro-metering pump group 63 warehouse valve is automatically closed, and the injection of this type of nutrient is stopped.

[0033] Example three: To ensure that each component works efficiently, the system sets the following linkage mechanism: 1. Energy - water linkage: when the Internet of Things control terminal 8 detects that the underground water storage tank 4 water level is ≥80% (400L), the air compressor power is automatically reduced (to 50%), reducing energy consumption; when the water level is ≤30% (150L), the water is operated at full power; 2. Temperature - condensation linkage: when the ambient humidity is > 60%, the working power of the vortex cooling fin 22 is adjusted to 80% (pre-cooling to 8℃); when the humidity is < 40%, the power is adjusted to 100% (pre-cooling to 5℃), improving the condensation efficiency; 3. Irrigation - weather linkage: the Internet of Things control terminal 8 obtains the 24-hour weather forecast through the GPRS module, and if it is predicted to rain (rainfall ≥5mm), the irrigation program is automatically delayed for 24 hours.

[0034] The above specific structure and working process of the embodiment realizes the "air water - intelligent water and fertilizer allocation - precise irrigation" integrated management of apple trees in arid areas, significantly reduces the planting cost, and does not need to rely on external power grid and water source, and has good popularization value.

[0035] It should be noted that the control method of the present application can be automatically controlled by a controller, and the control method of the controller can be realized by simple programming by those skilled in the art, which belongs to the common knowledge in the art, and the present application mainly protects the mechanical structure, so the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.

[0036] In summary, the air water intelligent irrigation system of the embodiment of the present application uses wind energy and solar energy composite energy supply, does not need power grid, is suitable for remote areas and reduces carbon; combines underground temperature difference, phase change material, etc. to improve air condensation efficiency and quality; uses sensors, metering pumps, etc. to realize precise nutrient proportioning; the Internet of Things dynamically regulates and controls cost reduction, the components are corrosion resistant and frost resistant, and are suitable for complex environments.
