Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of cloud data processing, and particularly relates to a refrigerator carbon footprint calculation method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Carbon footprint, in English, refers to the collection of greenhouse gas emissions caused by transportation, food production and consumption, and various production processes of enterprises, activities, products or individuals. It describes the impact of a person's energy awareness and behavior on nature, and calls on people to start from themselves. Some enterprises have begun to practice the environmental protection concept of reducing carbon footprint.

[0003] A refrigerator is an essential household appliance in people's daily life. People will use the refrigerator many times a day to store food. However, most users are not clear about the working principle of the refrigerator and do not know how to use the refrigerator correctly. For example, some users open the door for a long time, causing a large amount of cold air to leak out of the refrigerator; some users set the temperature of the refrigerator to be too low, causing the compressor to run for a long time. This incorrect use of the refrigerator wastes a lot of energy, not only increasing the electricity bill, but also polluting the environment. The refrigerator is a daily household appliance that is powered on for 24 hours a day. If each user saves a little energy every day, the energy saved by all users in the country every year will be quite objective.

[0004] Therefore, how to accurately calculate the carbon footprint of the user's refrigerator so as to guide the user to use the refrigerator reasonably has become a problem to be solved in the present application. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a refrigerator carbon footprint calculation method, which adds a refrigerator carbon footprint function on a refrigerator control APP, calculates the refrigerator carbon footprint according to the user's use habit, and guides the user to use the refrigerator reasonably, thereby solving the problem of large refrigerator energy consumption caused by non-standard user use.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application is realized by the following technical scheme:

[0007] The present application is a refrigerator carbon footprint calculation method, comprising the following steps:

[0008] Step S1: obtaining the refrigerator running state history information of the user from the cloud;

[0009] Step S2: generating the refrigerator carbon footprint according to the obtained refrigerator running state history information;

[0010] Step S3: sending the generated refrigerator carbon footprint value to the mobile terminal of the corresponding user.

[0011] As a preferred technical scheme, the refrigerator running state history information in the step S1 includes the door opening times, the door opening time, the door closing time, the ambient temperature and the current actual temperature of the refrigerator compartment.

[0012] As a preferred technical scheme, the refrigerator carbon footprint includes a refrigerator door opening carbon footprint and a refrigerator set temperature carbon footprint.

[0013] As a preferred technical scheme, the refrigerator door opening footprint is a relative value, that is, the difference of the carbon footprint of the user refrigerator door opening relative to the standard door opening time, and the calculation formula is:

[0014]

[0015] In the formula, the compartment door opening time is calculated by subtracting the compartment closing time from the compartment opening time; the energy consumption coefficient 1 is the energy consumption that the refrigerator needs to increase per second when the refrigerator environment and the refrigerator compartment temperature difference is 1 DEG C; 0.785 is the CO2 emission per degree of electricity increase; the standard door opening time is the standard time required for the refrigerator to open the door once, and the unit is second;

[0016] The refrigerator door opening carbon footprint includes the sum of carbon footprints of all compartments of the refrigerator.

[0017] The refrigerator door opening carbon footprint is accumulated every time the refrigerator door is opened for a month.

[0018] As a preferred technical scheme, the refrigerator set temperature carbon footprint is a relative value, that is, the difference relative to the standard set temperature carbon footprint of the refrigerator, and the calculation formula is:

[0019] The refrigerator set temperature carbon footprint is:

[0020] The cumulative set temperature summation [(user set temperature-standard set temperature)*energy consumption coefficient 2]*refrigerator running time*0.785

[0021] In the formula, the energy consumption coefficient 2 is the energy consumption of the refrigerator increased per hour when the set temperature is increased / decreased by 1 DEG; the refrigerator running time is the running time of the refrigerator at the set temperature; and the refrigerator set temperature carbon footprint is accumulated for a month.

[0022] As a preferred technical scheme, when the refrigerator use carbon footprint is a positive value, it represents that the user reduces the CO2 of the environment relative to the average value of the national users; and when the refrigerator use carbon footprint is a negative value, it represents that the user increases the CO2 of the environment relative to the average value of the national users.

[0023] The present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The present application calculates the carbon footprint of a refrigerator by using refrigerator operation data stored in the cloud, sends the refrigerator carbon footprint value to a mobile terminal for the user to view, and guides the user to reduce the refrigerator door opening time and frequency, thereby reducing carbon emissions, and guiding the user to use the refrigerator reasonably, so as to reduce the energy consumption of the refrigerator and reduce environmental pollution.

[0029] Referring to Figure 1 The present application is a refrigerator carbon footprint calculation method, which comprises the following steps:

[0030] Step S1: Obtain the refrigerator operation state history information of the user from the cloud, which includes the door opening frequency, door opening time, door closing time, environment temperature, and current actual temperature of the refrigerator compartment;

[0039] Refrigerator set temperature carbon footprint =

[0040] Cumulative set temperature summation [(user set temperature - standard set temperature) * energy consumption coefficient 2] * refrigerator running time * 0.785

[0041] In the formula, the energy consumption coefficient 2 is the calculated energy consumption of the refrigerator per 1 degree of increase / decrease in the set temperature in unit hours; the refrigerator running time is the running time of the refrigerator at the set temperature; and the refrigerator set temperature carbon footprint is accumulated for all set temperatures of the refrigerator in one month.

[0042] When the refrigerator use carbon footprint is positive, it indicates that the user reduces CO2 relative to the average of all users; and when the refrigerator use carbon footprint is negative, it indicates that the user increases CO2 relative to the average of all users.
