[0055] The specific embodiments have been shown and described in the foregoing drawings part of the specification, and will be described in more detail hereinafter. These drawings and written descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept of the application in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0056] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the application more clear, the technical scheme of the application will be described clearly and completely in the following combined with the drawings in the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the application.
[0057] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like (if any) in the specification and claims of the application and the above drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.
[0058] Air conditioners, as refrigeration or heating equipment, have become part of people's lives and have improved people's comfort. When the air conditioner is in low-temperature heating operation, the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner will appear frost phenomenon, and defrosting is needed at this time.
[0059] Generally, the air conditioner will enter the defrosting state when the defrosting condition is met. The defrosting condition may be, for example, that the maximum difference between the outdoor coil temperature and the indoor temperature is greater than a preset threshold, the cumulative operating time of the compressor exceeds 45 minutes, etc., or the air conditioner may be forced to enter the defrosting state, for example, when the cumulative operating time of the compressor exceeds 45 minutes and the continuous operating time exceeds 20 minutes, the coil temperature is less than the indoor temperature for 5 minutes, and the air conditioner enters the defrosting state.
[0060] However, in the prior art, the defrosting condition does not match the actual scene, and the defrosting condition needs to be optimized.
[0061] In the prior art, the defrosting condition is commonly optimized according to the defrosting time, thereby indirectly adjusting the defrosting time.
[0062] However, in the prior art, the condition for adjusting the defrosting time is too single, resulting in inaccurate adjustment of the defrosting time. In the prior art, the operating parameters of the compressor are not adjusted, so that the defrosting time and the operating time of the compressor cannot be well adjusted to a relatively reasonable range.
[0063] The present application provides a defrosting control method, which adjusts the operating parameters of the air conditioner according to the obtained operating time of the compressor and the defrosting time, so that the defrosting time and the operating time of the compressor are in a relatively reasonable range, and the operating parameters of the air conditioner are indirectly optimized, the heating efficiency of the air conditioner is improved, and the user experience is improved.
[0064] The technical solutions of the present application and how the technical solutions of the present application solve the above technical problems will be described in detail below with specific examples. The following specific examples can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some examples. The embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0065] Figure 1 The defrosting control method provided by the embodiments of the present application Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1, the defrosting control method shown in the embodiments includes the following steps. Figure 1
[0066] S101: Obtain the defrosting entering temperature according to the outdoor environment temperature.
[0067] The defrost entering temperature is a temperature reference value of the air conditioner when entering defrosting, which can be compared with the outdoor coil temperature to determine whether to perform defrosting operation.
[0068] There is a correlation between the outdoor environment temperature and the defrost entering temperature. The current defrost entering temperature can be determined according to the outdoor environment temperature. For example, if the current outdoor environment temperature is 5℃, the corresponding defrost entering temperature can be -5℃; if the current outdoor environment temperature is 0℃, the corresponding defrost entering temperature can be -12℃, and so on.
[0069] S102: When the outdoor coil temperature is less than the defrost entering temperature, perform defrosting operation and obtain the compressor running time.
[0070] The outdoor coil temperature refers to the temperature of the outdoor coil of the air conditioner. When the outdoor coil temperature is less than the defrost entering temperature, it indicates that the temperature on the outdoor coil is low and there is frost phenomenon, so defrosting operation is performed.
[0071] When the air conditioner enters defrosting operation, the compressor stops running and the air conditioner also changes from heating state to defrosting state. The compressor running time refers to the time of air conditioner heating operation in this period, for example, the compressor start running time can be obtained when the air conditioner starts heating, and the compressor end running time can be obtained when the air conditioner stops heating, so as to determine the compressor running time.
[0072] S103: After the defrosting operation ends, obtain the defrosting time.
[0073] The defrosting time refers to the time of air conditioner defrosting operation, which can be determined according to the defrosting start time and the defrosting end time.
[0074] S104: Adjust the running parameters of the air conditioner according to the compressor running time and the defrosting time.
[0075] The running parameters of the air conditioner may be, for example, the speed of the indoor fan, the speed of the outdoor fan, the frequency of the compressor operation, the target discharge of the compressor, and the temperature of the air conditioner entering defrosting, and other running parameters that can optimize the compressor running time and defrosting time of the air conditioner.
[0076] In this step, the running parameters of the air conditioner are dynamically adjusted according to the compressor running time and the defrosting time, so that the compressor running time and the defrosting time in the same period tend to be more reasonable, which improves the heating efficiency of the air conditioner and improves the user experience.
[0077] Exemplarily, when the compressor operation time is too short, the compressor operation time can be shortened by at least one of reducing the rotation speed of the indoor fan, increasing the rotation speed of the outdoor fan, reducing the frequency of the compressor operation, reducing the target discharge of the compressor, and reducing the defrost entering temperature.
[0078] Alternatively, when the ratio of the compressor operation time to the defrost time exceeds a preset ratio, the operation parameters of the air conditioner are adjusted to make the compressor operation time and the defrost time more reasonable. The specific implementation of adjusting the operation parameters of the air conditioner is not particularly limited in this embodiment, as long as the compressor operation time and the defrost time can be more reasonable.
[0079] The defrosting control method provided in this embodiment includes: obtaining a defrost entering temperature according to an outdoor environment temperature; performing a defrost operation when an outdoor coil temperature is less than the defrost entering temperature, and obtaining a compressor operation time; obtaining a defrost time after the defrost operation ends; and adjusting operation parameters of the air conditioner according to the compressor operation time and the defrost time. Compared with the prior art in which only the defrost entering temperature is optimized according to the defrost time, the defrost time and the compressor operation time can be better brought to a relatively reasonable range by adjusting the operation parameters of the air conditioner according to the compressor operation time and the defrost time, which indirectly optimizes the operation parameters of the air conditioner, improves the heating efficiency of the air conditioner, and improves the user experience.
[0080] Figure 2 The flow of the defrosting control method provided in this embodiment Figure 2 This embodiment is based on the above-mentioned embodiment one and details the defrosting control method. As shown in Figure 2 The defrosting control method provided in this embodiment includes:
[0081] S201: Obtain a defrost entering temperature according to an outdoor environment temperature.
[0082] S202: Obtain an outdoor coil temperature, perform a defrost operation when the outdoor coil temperature is less than the defrost entering temperature, and obtain a compressor operation time.
[0083] S203: Obtain a defrost time after the defrost operation ends.
[0084] Steps S201-S203 are similar to steps S101-S103, and will not be repeated here.
[0085] S204: Determine whether the compressor operation time is less than a first operation time threshold; if yes, perform step S205, and if no, perform step S206.
[0086] The first operation time threshold is a reference value of the compressor operation time, which can be preset by a user, for example. The purpose of comparing the compressor operation time with the first operation time threshold is to determine whether the compressor operation time is within a reasonable range.
[0087] S205: determining whether the defrosting time is less than a first defrosting time threshold; if yes, executing step S207, and if no, executing step S208.
[0088] The first defrosting time threshold is a reference value of the time for the air conditioner to perform the defrosting operation. The purpose of comparing the defrosting time with the first defrosting time threshold is to determine the size of the defrosting time, so as to determine whether the frosting phenomenon of the air conditioner is serious.
[0089] S206: determining whether the compressor operation time is greater than a second operation time threshold; if yes, executing step S211, and if no, executing step S212.
[0090] The second operation time threshold is greater than the first operation time threshold. The second operation time threshold can be the longest compressor operation time determined according to big data, for example.
[0091] For example, in the prior art, when the compressor operation time reaches the second operation time threshold, the air conditioner will forcibly perform the defrosting operation.
[0092] The purpose of comparing the compressor operation time with the second operation time threshold is to determine whether the compressor is in an overlong operation.
[0093] S207: reducing the defrosting entering temperature.
[0094] When the compressor operation time is less than the first operation time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner has been in the heating operation for a short time and enters the defrosting operation. When the defrosting time is less than the first defrosting time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner has a short defrosting time, that is, the frosting phenomenon is not serious, and thus the air conditioner only needs a short time to complete the defrosting operation.
[0095] When the compressor operation time is less than the first operation time threshold and the defrosting time is less than the first defrosting time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner enters the defrosting state when the frosting just starts or the frosting phenomenon is not serious, that is, the defrosting entering temperature is too high, and thus the defrosting entering temperature needs to be reduced.
[0096] For example, when the current outdoor environment temperature is 0°C, the set defrosting entering temperature is -12°C, and the air conditioner is in the heating operation for 18 minutes, the outdoor coil temperature is less than -12°C, and the air conditioner performs the defrosting operation. After 2 minutes of the defrosting operation, the defrosting is completed, and the air conditioner reenters the heating state.
[0097] It can be seen that the air conditioner heating time is only 18 minutes, and the defrosting time is only 2 minutes. The total length of one cycle of heating and defrosting is 20 minutes. It can be seen that the current frost on the outdoor unit of the air conditioner is thin, the outdoor coil temperature entering condition is high, and the defrosting is more frequent.
[0098] Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the defrosting entering temperature, for example, to reduce the defrosting entering temperature to -20℃, so as to prolong the compressor running time and improve the heating efficiency of the air conditioner.
[0099] S208: determining whether the defrosting time is less than a second defrosting time threshold; if yes, executing step S209, and if no, executing step S210.
[0100] S209: reducing the indoor fan speed.
[0101] Among them, the compressor running time is less than the first running time threshold, which means that the air conditioner enters the defrosting operation when the heating time is short. The defrosting time is between the first defrosting time threshold and the second defrosting time threshold, which means that the air conditioner defrosting time is relatively reasonable.
[0102] When the compressor running time is less than the first running time threshold, and the defrosting time is between the first defrosting time threshold and the second defrosting time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner is in a heating state, and a large amount of frost can be generated on the outdoor coil in a short time. At this time, the speed of the indoor fan of the air conditioner should be adjusted to reduce the amount of cold air blown to the outdoor coil in unit time, thereby prolonging the heating time of the air conditioner. The specific implementation of the indoor fan speed reduction value is not specially limited in this embodiment.
[0103] For example, after reducing the indoor fan speed, it can also be determined whether the indoor fan speed reduction value is less than a first preset reduction value; if yes, the indoor fan speed reduction value is updated to the first preset reduction value, a new indoor fan speed is obtained according to the first preset reduction value, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new indoor fan speed; if no, a new indoor fan speed is obtained according to the indoor fan speed reduction value, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new indoor fan speed.
[0104] The first preset reduction value can be pre-set, which can be, for example, the maximum reduction value of the indoor fan speed. When the indoor fan reduction value is less than the first preset reduction value, the reduction value is updated to the first preset reduction value, a new indoor fan speed is obtained, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new indoor fan speed. When the indoor fan reduction value is greater than the first preset reduction value, the indoor fan reduction value is not updated.
[0105] For example, after reducing the indoor fan speed, the method further comprises: increasing the outdoor fan speed.
[0106] The method for prolonging the heating time of the air conditioner can not only include reducing the indoor fan rotating speed, but also increasing the outdoor fan rotating speed to prolong the heating time of the air conditioner.
[0107] It can be understood that increasing the outdoor fan rotating speed can make the heat dissipation of the outdoor coil better, reduce the frosting speed, slow down the temperature drop speed of the outdoor coil, thereby increasing the time for the outdoor coil temperature to reach the defrosting entering temperature, that is, increasing the heating time of the air conditioner.
[0108] S210: reduce the indoor fan rotating speed and reduce the compressor target discharge.
[0109] The compressor operating time less than the first operating time threshold indicates that the air conditioner has a short heating time and enters the defrosting operation. The defrosting time greater than the second defrosting time threshold indicates that the air conditioner has a relatively long defrosting time and a more serious frosting phenomenon.
[0110] When the compressor operating time is less than the first operating time threshold and the defrosting time is greater than the second defrosting time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner is in a heating state, and a large amount of frost can be generated on the outdoor coil in a short time. At this time, not only the indoor fan rotating speed needs to be adjusted, but also the compressor target discharge needs to be reduced to reduce the amount of cold air blown to the outdoor coil in a unit of time, thereby prolonging the heating time of the air conditioner.
[0111] It can be understood that the air conditioner has a short heating time, but a serious frosting phenomenon, which indicates that the air conditioner compressor has a large operating power, a large amount of cold air is discharged to the outdoor, and the indoor fan blows the cold air discharged by the compressor to the outdoor at a high rotating speed. At this time, if only the indoor fan rotating speed is reduced, the heating effect in the room will be affected. Therefore, in this step, not only the indoor fan rotating speed is reduced, but also the compressor target discharge is reduced to avoid too much cold air being discharged to the outdoor in a short time and to slow down the frosting phenomenon on the outdoor coil. The specific implementation of determining the reduction amplitude of the indoor fan rotating speed and determining the reduction amplitude of the compressor target discharge is not specially limited in this embodiment. The method for determining the reduction amplitude of the indoor fan rotating speed can refer to the above description.
[0112] Exemplarily, after the compressor target discharge is reduced, it can be determined whether the reduction amplitude of the compressor target discharge is less than a first preset reduction amplitude. If yes, the reduction amplitude of the compressor target discharge is updated to the first preset reduction amplitude, a new compressor target discharge is obtained according to the first preset reduction amplitude, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new compressor target discharge. If no, a new compressor target discharge is obtained according to the reduction amplitude of the compressor target discharge, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new compressor target discharge.
[0113] The first preset reduction value may be, for example, a maximum reduction value of the compressor target discharge. When the reduction value of the compressor target discharge is less than the first preset reduction value, the reduction value is updated to the first preset reduction value to obtain a new compressor target discharge, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new compressor target discharge. When the reduction value of the compressor target discharge is greater than the first preset reduction value, the reduction value of the compressor target discharge is not updated.
[0114] Exemplarily, after step S209 or S210, the method further comprises: reducing the compressor operating frequency.
[0115] The premise of both step S209 and step S210 is that the compressor operating time is less than a first operating time threshold, that is, the air conditioner operates in the heating mode for a short time. In order to prolong the time of the air conditioner operating in the heating mode, the compressor operating frequency can be reduced based on the above steps. By reducing the compressor operating frequency, the cold air blown to the outdoor is reduced, thereby delaying the frosting phenomenon on the outdoor coil, and prolonging the time of the air conditioner operating in the heating mode. The embodiment does not specially limit the specific implementation manner of determining the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency.
[0116] Exemplarily, after the compressor operating frequency is reduced, it can be determined whether the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency is less than a second preset reduction value. If yes, the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency is updated to the second preset reduction value, a new compressor operating frequency is obtained according to the second preset reduction value, the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new compressor operating frequency, and the outdoor coil temperature is re-acquired. If no, a new compressor operating frequency is obtained according to the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency, the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new compressor operating frequency, and the outdoor coil temperature is re-acquired.
[0117] The second preset reduction value may be, for example, a maximum reduction value of the compressor operating frequency. When the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency is less than the second preset reduction value, the reduction value is updated to the second preset reduction value to obtain a new compressor operating frequency, and the air conditioner is controlled to operate at the new compressor operating frequency. When the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency is greater than the second preset reduction value, the reduction value of the compressor operating frequency is not updated, the outdoor coil temperature is directly re-acquired, and the next heating-defrosting cycle is entered.
[0118] It can be understood that, as shown in Figure 3 After steps S207, S209 and S210 are executed, step S202 is continuously executed. That is, after the operating parameters of the air conditioner are adjusted, the outdoor coil temperature is re-acquired to perform the next defrosting operation.
[0119] S211: increasing the compressor target discharge.
[0120] When the compressor running time is greater than the second running time threshold, it indicates that the compressor is currently in a long running state; and since the air conditioner has not entered the defrosting state, it indicates that the temperature of the outdoor coil is not lower than the defrosting entering temperature. Therefore, it can be determined that there is a problem with the compressor running parameters, for example, the target discharge of the compressor is too low, so that less cold air is discharged to the outdoor, thereby failing to trigger the defrosting state.
[0121] Therefore, in this step, when it is determined that the compressor running time is greater than the second running time threshold, the target discharge of the compressor can be increased to increase the amount of cold air discharged to the outdoor by the compressor, so that the temperature of the outdoor coil decreases to the defrosting entering temperature more quickly, thereby shortening the heating time in the same heating-defrosting cycle and making the defrosting time and the compressor running time reach a relatively reasonable range. The specific implementation of the increase amplitude value of the target discharge of the compressor is not specially limited in this embodiment.
[0122] For example, after increasing the target discharge of the compressor, it can also be determined whether the increase amplitude value of the target discharge of the compressor is less than a preset increase amplitude value. If yes, the increase amplitude value of the target discharge of the compressor is updated to the preset increase amplitude value, a new target discharge of the compressor is obtained according to the preset increase amplitude value, the air conditioner is controlled to run at the new target discharge of the compressor, and the temperature of the outdoor coil is re-acquired. If no, a new target discharge of the compressor is obtained according to the increase amplitude value of the target discharge of the compressor, the air conditioner is controlled to run at the new target discharge of the compressor, and the temperature of the outdoor coil is re-acquired.
[0123] S212: When the defrosting time is less than the first defrosting time threshold, the defrosting entering temperature is decreased; and when the defrosting time is greater than the second defrosting time threshold, the defrosting entering temperature is increased.
[0124] When it is determined that the compressor running time is between the first running time threshold and the second running time threshold, it indicates that the compressor running time is relatively normal, and at this time, whether the defrosting entering temperature needs to be adjusted can be determined according to the defrosting time, the first defrosting time threshold and the second defrosting time threshold.
[0125] When the defrosting time is less than the first defrosting time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner has just started frosting or has entered the defrosting state when the frosting phenomenon is not serious, that is, the defrosting entering temperature is too high, and therefore the defrosting entering temperature needs to be decreased. When the defrosting time is greater than the second defrosting time threshold, it indicates that the defrosting time of the air conditioner is relatively long, and the frosting phenomenon is relatively serious, and therefore the defrosting entering temperature needs to be increased to enable the frosting phenomenon to be executed within a reasonable range.
[0126] When the compressor target discharge is increased, it is also necessary to determine whether the defrost entering temperature needs to be adjusted according to the defrost time, the first defrost time threshold and the second defrost time threshold.
[0127] When the defrost time is less than the first defrost time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner has just started frosting or the frosting phenomenon is not serious, and the defrosting state is entered, that is, the defrost entering temperature is too high, and thus the defrost entering temperature needs to be reduced. When the defrost time is greater than the second defrost time threshold, it indicates that the air conditioner defrosting time is relatively long, and the frosting phenomenon is relatively serious, and thus the defrost entering temperature needs to be increased to enable the frosting phenomenon to perform the defrosting operation within a reasonable range.
[0128] The defrosting control method provided in the embodiment can better enable the defrost time and the compressor running time to be within a relatively reasonable range, and at the same time, the running parameters of the air conditioner are optimized, the running efficiency of the air conditioner is improved, and the user experience is improved.
