Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle control technology, and more particularly to an air conditioning control method, electronic equipment, storage medium, and vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the energy consumption of air conditioning in new energy vehicles is one of the factors affecting their driving range. Existing air conditioning system control methods manage the temperature regulation components based on current temperature data. For example, the vehicle controller determines the cabin temperature based on the current temperature and adjusts accordingly. However, this passive response approach has a lag. For instance, when a vehicle is about to enter a service area on a highway, it slows down significantly, reducing the cooling or heating load on the air conditioning system. If the air conditioning system continues to operate at high power based on the current temperature, it will result in higher energy consumption, wasting energy and reducing the vehicle's driving range. Summary of the Invention

[0046] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0047] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in the embodiments of this application should have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0048] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0049] refer to Figure 1 An air conditioning control method, applied to an air conditioning system, the air conditioning system including a temperature regulating component, the method comprising the following steps:

[0050] Step S100: Obtain the current driving scenario of the vehicle, including high-speed driving scenario and non-high-speed driving scenario.

[0051] In this step, the high-speed driving scenario refers to the vehicle traveling on a highway, while the non-high-speed driving scenario refers to the vehicle not traveling on a highway. The vehicle's current driving scenario information can be obtained through navigation (such as GPS, Beidou positioning), etc. When the obtained vehicle location is on a highway, it is determined that the vehicle is currently in a high-speed driving scenario.

[0052] Step S200: In response to the vehicle being in a high-speed driving scenario, vehicle information and road information are obtained.

[0053] In this step, when the vehicle is traveling on the highway, the temperature regulation components of the vehicle heat up quickly due to the high speed. If low power consumption is executed, the temperature control of the temperature regulation components will be unstable, which will cause safety hazards. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain vehicle information and road information and determine whether the vehicle information and road information are in line with the low power consumption operation of the air conditioning system.

[0054] Step S300: In response to the vehicle information and road information meeting the low-power operation conditions of the air conditioning system and the air conditioning system being turned on, the power of the temperature regulating component is reduced so that the air conditioning system enters low-power operation.

[0055] In this step, when the vehicle and road information meet the low-power operation conditions of the air conditioning system and the air conditioning system is turned on, the power of the temperature regulation component of the air conditioning system is reduced to enable the air conditioning system to enter low-power operation.

[0056] Specifically, since different driving scenarios correspond to different low-power operating conditions, the vehicle system obtains the vehicle's driving scenario, acquires vehicle and road information within that scenario, and further detects the vehicle and road information within that scenario to determine whether the vehicle and road information meet the low-power operating conditions of the air conditioning system. If they do, the power of the temperature regulation component of the air conditioning system is reduced, enabling the air conditioning system to enter low-power operation, thereby reducing the power consumption of the air conditioning system and improving the vehicle's range.

[0057] In some embodiments, in step S200, the on-state of the air conditioning system includes an internal circulation state and an external circulation state;

[0058] The step of reducing the power of the temperature regulating component in response to the air conditioning system being turned on includes:

[0059] In response to the air conditioning system being in external circulation mode, the air conditioning system is switched to internal circulation mode, and the power of the temperature regulating component is reduced.

[0060] Specifically, when the external circulation mode of the air conditioning system is turned on, it is necessary to adjust the external circulation mode to the internal circulation mode and reduce the power of the temperature regulating component so that the temperature regulating component operates at low power and the air conditioning system enters low power operation.

[0061] Furthermore, the external air circulation mode draws outside air into the cabin and exchanges it for outside air, keeping the cabin air fresh. Therefore, when the air conditioning system is in external air circulation mode, the exchange of air between the cabin and the outside hinders the temperature rise or fall of the cabin, increasing the energy consumption of the air conditioning system. Internal air circulation, on the other hand, circulates the air inside the car while the doors and windows are closed, only heating or cooling the air circulating inside the cabin. Therefore, when the air conditioning system is in internal air circulation mode, the cabin temperature rises or falls more quickly, reducing the energy consumption of the air conditioning system. Thus, switching from external to internal air circulation mode reduces the energy consumption of the air conditioning system, allowing it to operate at lower power consumption.

[0062] In some embodiments, in step S300, the vehicle information includes vehicle location and vehicle speed, and the road information includes target junction entrance location, target junction exit location, target service area location, and destination location;

[0063] The response to the vehicle information and road information meeting the low-power operation conditions of the air conditioning system includes:

[0064] If the vehicle information and road information simultaneously meet the first preset condition, the second preset condition, the third preset condition and the fourth preset condition, then it is determined that the vehicle meets the low-power operation conditions of the air conditioning system.

[0065] The first preset condition is that the distance between the vehicle location and the destination location is greater than or equal to a first preset distance threshold;

[0066] The second preset condition is that the vehicle position is located between the target branch road entrance position and the target branch road exit position;

[0067] The third preset condition is that the distance between the vehicle location and the target service area location is less than the second preset distance threshold;

[0068] The fourth preset condition is that the average speed of the vehicle within a preset time period is less than the first preset speed threshold.

[0069] Specifically, vehicle and road information are detected by tracking vehicle location, speed, target junction entrance location, target junction exit location, target service area location, and destination location. When the air conditioning system is detected to meet the low-power operation conditions, it is put into low-power operation to save energy and improve the vehicle's range.

[0070] Furthermore, the first preset condition judgment process is as follows:

[0071] The distance between the current location of the vehicle and the destination location is compared with a preset first distance threshold to determine whether the vehicle meets the first preset condition. If the distance is greater than or equal to the preset first distance threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the first preset condition. If the distance is less than the preset first distance threshold, the vehicle is determined not to meet the first preset condition.

[0072] Furthermore, the second preset condition judgment process is as follows:

[0073] Based on the target junction entrance and exit positions, it is determined whether the vehicle's position is between these two positions. If the vehicle's position is between these two positions, the vehicle is deemed to meet the second preset condition; if the vehicle's position is not between these two positions, the vehicle is deemed not to meet the second preset condition. The target junction entrance position refers to the location of the junction entrance between the highway and the target service area; the target junction exit position refers to the location of the junction exit between the highway and the target service area, i.e., the target service area entrance position.

[0074] Furthermore, the third preset condition judgment process is as follows:

[0075] Based on the distance between the current location of the vehicle and the target service area, a comparison is made with a preset second distance threshold to determine whether the vehicle meets the third preset condition. If the distance is less than the preset second distance threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the third preset condition; if the distance is greater than or equal to the preset second distance threshold, the vehicle is determined not to meet the third preset condition.

[0076] Furthermore, the fourth preset condition is determined as follows:

[0077] The preset time period is at least one continuous time period from the start time of vehicle travel to the current time. For example, if the start time of vehicle travel is 11:00 and the current time is 13:00, then the preset time period can be set to 12:10 to 12:50. The vehicle speed within this preset time period is obtained, and the average speed within this preset time period is calculated to obtain the average speed. The average speed is compared with a first preset speed threshold to determine whether the vehicle meets the fourth preset condition. If the average speed is less than the first preset speed threshold, then the vehicle meets the fourth preset condition. If the average speed is greater than or equal to the first preset speed threshold, then the vehicle does not meet the fourth preset condition.

[0078] Based on the above example, the vehicle information also includes the cabin temperature;

[0079] The response to the vehicle information meeting the low-power operation conditions of the air conditioning system further includes:

[0080] In response to the cabin temperature being greater than or equal to a first preset temperature threshold, or the cabin temperature being less than a second preset temperature threshold, it is determined that the vehicle meets the low-power operation conditions of the air conditioning system.

[0081] Specifically, based on the determination that the vehicle information and road information simultaneously meet the first preset condition, the second preset condition, the third preset condition, and the fourth preset condition, the system determines whether the cabin temperature in the vehicle is greater than or equal to the first preset temperature threshold in heating mode, or whether the cabin temperature in the vehicle is less than the second preset temperature threshold in cooling mode. If all five preset conditions are met, the air conditioning system can enter low-power operation at a suitable temperature, providing users with a better experience.

[0082] In some embodiments, in step S300, the temperature regulating component includes a temperature regulator, a water pump, and a blower;

[0083] The reduction of the power of the temperature regulating component includes:

[0084] Adjust the power value of the temperature regulator to a preset temperature regulator power value; and / or,

[0085] Reduce the power value of the water pump to a preset water pump power value; and / or,

[0086] Adjust the blower speed to the preset blower speed.

[0087] Specifically, when a vehicle is traveling on a highway, the temperature control components heat up quickly due to the high speed. If the temperature control components are turned off and then turned back on, it will cause the temperature control of the temperature control components to be unstable, creating a safety hazard. Therefore, when driving on a highway, the power of the temperature control components should only be reduced, and the temperature control components should generally not be turned off; the relevant temperature control components should only be turned off when the user turns off the air conditioning system.

[0088] Let's take the current air conditioning system in heating mode as an example:

[0089] The aforementioned temperature regulator includes a heater, which reduces the heater's power to a preset power value (for example, 20% of the power required by the heater for the user-set temperature), and also reduces the water pump's power to a preset power value. The water pump circulates the water according to the preset power value (for example, 20% of the power required by the water pump for the user-set temperature). Then, the blower's speed is reduced to a preset speed (for example, speed 1). By reducing the power of the temperature regulating components in the heating mode, each temperature regulating component in the heating mode can operate at low power, enabling the air conditioning system to operate in low-power mode and improving the vehicle's range.

[0090] Let's take the current air conditioning system in cooling mode as an example:

[0091] The aforementioned temperature regulator includes a compressor and a condenser. It lowers the compressor's power to a preset power value (for example, 20% of the power required by the compressor for the user-set temperature), lowers the condenser's power to a preset power value (for example, 20% of the power required by the condenser for the user-set temperature), and lowers the water pump's power to a preset power value. The water pump circulates the water according to the preset power value (for example, 20% of the power required by the water pump for the user-set temperature). Then, it lowers the blower's speed to a preset speed (for example, speed 1). By reducing the power of the temperature regulating components in the cooling mode, each temperature regulating component in the cooling mode can operate at low power, allowing the air conditioning system's heating mode to operate with low power consumption, thus improving the vehicle's range.

[0092] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0093] In response to the vehicle speed being 0 and the duration of the 0 speed being greater than a preset time, the vehicle is determined to be parked and the low-power operation mode is stopped.

[0094] In response to the vehicle speed being 0 and the duration of the 0 speed being less than or equal to a preset time, the vehicle is determined to be temporarily parked, and it is determined whether the vehicle speed after the temporary parking is greater than a second preset speed threshold.

[0095] In response to the vehicle speed being greater than a second preset speed threshold, the low-power operation mode is stopped, wherein the second preset speed threshold is less than the second speed threshold.

[0096] Specifically, the preset time is 5 minutes. If the vehicle's speed is 0 and it maintains this speed for 5 minutes or more, it indicates that the vehicle is parked at a service area. After parking, the vehicle will inevitably restart and enter the highway, therefore, the low-power operation mode is stopped. If the vehicle's parking time is less than or equal to the preset time, it is determined that the vehicle is temporarily parked. Further checks are made to see if the vehicle's speed after temporary parking exceeds a second preset speed threshold (30 km / h). If it does, it indicates that the vehicle will restart after temporary parking and will soon leave the service area and enter the highway. When the vehicle restarts after temporary parking, the vehicle speed is too high after entering the highway, and the vehicle's thermal management requirements are high. If low-power operation is executed, it will damage components. Therefore, in this case, low-power operation mode is not executed.

[0097] In some embodiments, the method further includes:

[0098] In response to the vehicle speed being less than or equal to a second preset speed threshold and a temperature change command being received, the changed temperature value in the temperature change command is obtained;

[0099] In response to the change temperature value being greater than or equal to the third preset temperature threshold, or the change temperature value being less than the fourth preset temperature threshold, the low-power operation mode is stopped, wherein the third preset temperature threshold is greater than the first preset temperature threshold, and the fourth preset temperature threshold is less than the second preset threshold.

[0100] Specifically, after the vehicle restarts, it determines whether the user has reset the temperature. Taking the current air conditioning system in heating mode as an example: When the user resets the heating mode temperature, the vehicle's system receives a temperature change command, obtains the changed temperature value from the command, and determines whether the changed temperature value is greater than or equal to a third preset temperature threshold. If the changed temperature value is greater than or equal to the third preset temperature threshold, it means the user feels the cabin temperature is too low and needs to increase the temperature. In this case, the air conditioning system's heating mode stops operating at low power and continues to operate in normal heating mode. In normal heating mode, the temperature adjustment components execute power according to the user-set temperature value, achieving flexible control of the air conditioning system's heating and providing a better user experience.

[0101] Taking the current air conditioning system in cooling mode as an example: When the user resets the temperature of the cooling mode, the vehicle's system receives a temperature change command, obtains the changed temperature value in the command, and determines whether the changed temperature value is less than the fourth preset temperature threshold. If the changed temperature value is less than the fourth preset temperature threshold, it means that the user feels the cabin temperature is too high and needs to lower the temperature. In this case, the air conditioning system stops operating in low power mode and continues to cool in normal mode. In normal mode, the temperature adjustment component operates according to the required power based on the user-set temperature value, thereby achieving flexible control of the air conditioning system and providing a better user experience.

[0102] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application can also be further described in the following ways:

[0103] Reference Figure 2 A method for controlling an air conditioning system, comprising:

[0104] When the vehicle's thermal management system is in heating mode, and the air conditioning system is in external circulation mode:

[0105] The vehicle's infotainment system acquires the vehicle's current driving scenario and determines whether it is a non-high-speed driving scenario. If the current driving scenario is a high-speed driving scenario, it acquires the vehicle's position, speed, cabin temperature, target exit point location, target service area location, and destination location. If the distance between the vehicle's position and the destination is 50km, it compares this distance with a first preset distance threshold (e.g., 500m). If the distance from the vehicle's position to the destination is greater than the first preset distance threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the first preset condition. If the vehicle's position in the navigation is between the target exit point and the target exit point, the vehicle is determined to meet the second preset condition. If the distance between the vehicle's position and the destination is 50km, it compares this distance with the target service area with a second preset distance threshold (e.g., 70km). If the distance from the vehicle's position to the target service area is less than a third preset distance threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the third preset condition. The vehicle speed is acquired within a preset time period (exemplarily, 12:10 to 12:50), and the average speed during this period is calculated (exemplarily, the average speed is 60 km / h). This average speed is compared to a first preset speed threshold (exemplarily, the first preset speed threshold is 70 km / h). If the average speed is less than the preset threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the fourth preset condition. The cabin temperature (exemplarily, cabin temperature is 20°C) is compared to a first preset temperature threshold (exemplarily, the first preset temperature threshold is 10°C). If the cabin temperature is greater than the first preset temperature threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the fifth preset condition. If both the vehicle information and road information simultaneously meet the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth preset conditions, the vehicle is determined to meet the low-power operation conditions of the thermal management system. Then, the air conditioning system will be switched to recirculation mode, the heater will be reduced to 20% of the power required by the heater for the user-set temperature, the water pump will be reduced to 20% of the power required by the water pump for the user-set temperature, and the blower will be reduced by one level, so that the heating mode of the air conditioning system remains in low power consumption until the vehicle is parked.

[0106] If a vehicle enters a service area, it is determined whether the vehicle speed is 0 and whether the duration of the 0 speed is greater than a preset time (e.g., 5 minutes). If the speed is 0 and the duration is greater than the preset time, the vehicle is parked in the service area and exits low-power operation. If the speed is 0 and the duration is less than or equal to the preset time, the vehicle is temporarily parked in the service area. It is then determined whether the vehicle speed after temporary parking is greater than a second preset speed threshold (e.g., 30 km / h). If the speed is greater than the second preset speed threshold, it indicates that the vehicle will restart after temporary parking and will soon leave the service area to enter the highway, thus stopping the low-power operation mode. If the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the second preset speed threshold, it means that the vehicle is still temporarily parked. Then, it is determined whether the user has reset the heating mode temperature. If the user resets the heating mode temperature to 16℃, and compares it with the third preset temperature threshold (for example, the third preset temperature threshold is 15℃), the changed temperature value is greater than the third preset temperature threshold. This means that the user feels that the cabin temperature is too low and needs to increase the temperature. Then, the heating mode stops low-power operation, and the temperature adjustment components in the heating mode continue to operate according to the power value required for the user-set temperature.

[0107] When the vehicle's thermal management system is in cooling mode, and the air conditioning system is in external circulation mode:

[0108] The vehicle's infotainment system acquires the vehicle's current driving scenario and determines whether it is a non-high-speed driving scenario. If the current driving scenario is a high-speed driving scenario, it acquires the vehicle's position, speed, cabin temperature, target exit point location, target service area location, and destination location. If the distance between the vehicle's position and the destination is 50km, it compares this distance with a first preset distance threshold (e.g., 500m). If the distance from the vehicle's position to the destination is greater than the first preset distance threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the first preset condition. If the vehicle's position in the navigation is between the target exit point and the target exit point, the vehicle is determined to meet the second preset condition. If the distance between the vehicle's position and the target service area is 50km, it compares this distance with a second preset distance threshold (e.g., 70km). If the distance from the vehicle's position to the target service area is less than a third preset distance threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the third preset condition. The vehicle speed is acquired within a preset time period (exemplarily, 12:10 to 12:50), and the average speed during this period is calculated (exemplarily, the average speed is 60 km / h). This average speed is compared to a first preset speed threshold (exemplarily, the first preset speed threshold is 70 km / h). If the average speed is less than the preset threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the fourth preset condition. The cabin temperature (exemplarily, the cabin temperature is 5°C) is compared to a first preset temperature threshold (exemplarily, the first preset temperature threshold is 6°C). If the cabin temperature is less than the first preset temperature threshold, the vehicle is determined to meet the fifth preset condition. If both the vehicle information and road information simultaneously meet the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth preset conditions, the vehicle is determined to meet the low-power operation conditions of the thermal management system. Then, adjust the air conditioning system to recirculation mode, reduce the compressor to 20% of the power required for the user-set temperature, reduce the condenser to 20% of the power required for the user-set temperature, reduce the water pump to 20% of the power required for the user-set temperature, and reduce the blower speed by 1 level, so that the air conditioning system maintains low power consumption operation in cooling mode until the vehicle is parked.

[0109] If a vehicle enters a service area, it is determined whether the vehicle speed is 0 and whether the duration of the 0 speed is greater than a preset time (e.g., 5 minutes). If the speed is 0 and the duration is greater than the preset time, the vehicle is parked in the service area and exits low-power operation. If the speed is 0 and the duration is less than or equal to the preset time, the vehicle is temporarily parked in the service area. It is then determined whether the vehicle speed after temporary parking is greater than a second preset speed threshold (e.g., 30 km / h). If the speed is greater than the second preset speed threshold, it indicates that the vehicle will restart after temporary parking and will soon leave the service area to enter the highway, thus stopping the low-power operation mode. If the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the second preset speed threshold, it means that the vehicle is still temporarily parked. Then, it is determined whether the user has reset the cooling mode temperature. If the user resets the cooling mode temperature by 3°C, and compares it with the third preset temperature threshold (for example, the third preset temperature threshold is 4°C), the changed temperature value is less than the third preset temperature threshold. This means that the user feels that the cabin temperature is too high and needs to lower the temperature. Then, the air conditioning system stops operating in low power mode, and the temperature adjustment components in the cooling mode continue to operate according to the power value required by the user's set temperature.
