[0043] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a temperature and humidity control method for a test chamber according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to temperature and humidity control of test chambers, etc. The method can be executed by a temperature and humidity control device for the test chamber. This device can be implemented in the form of software and / or hardware. The device can be integrated into an electronic device such as a computer that has temperature and humidity control functions for the test chamber. The temperature and humidity of the test chamber are regulated by a high-temperature compressor and a low-temperature compressor. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0046] Step 110: Receive the test chamber's operation requirements instruction.

[0047] The operating requirements of the test chamber can include temperature and humidity requirements as well as operating requirements for preset temperature and humidity curves.

[0048] Step 120: Determine the temperature and humidity requirements of the test chamber and the operating requirements of the preset temperature and humidity curve according to the operation requirements instructions.

[0049] For example, if the operation requirement instruction includes the temperature and humidity requirement instruction of the test chamber, such as the operation requirement instruction of dehumidification and cooling and the preset temperature and humidity curve, then it can be determined that the test chamber has the operation requirement of temperature and humidity requirement and preset temperature and humidity curve.

[0050] Step 130: According to the temperature and humidity requirements of the test chamber and the operating requirements of the preset temperature and humidity curve, control the working status of the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor to adjust the temperature and humidity of the test chamber; when the preset temperature and humidity curve is running, both the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor are in working state.

[0051] For example, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a control system provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the high-temperature compressor CM1 and the low-temperature compressor CM2 operate to regulate the temperature and humidity of the test chamber. If the test chamber has temperature and humidity requirements and a preset temperature and humidity curve operation requirement, the temperature and humidity control device (not shown in the figure) controls both the high-temperature compressor CM1 and the low-temperature compressor CM2 to operate, and controls the valves connected to both the high-temperature compressor CM1 and the low-temperature compressor CM2 to be open, ensuring the reliability of the temperature and humidity control of the test chamber.

[0052] The temperature and humidity control method for the test chamber provided in this embodiment regulates the temperature and humidity of the test chamber by a high-temperature compressor and a low-temperature compressor. It receives operational demand commands from the test chamber; determines the required temperature and humidity and the operational requirements of a preset temperature and humidity curve based on these commands; and controls the operating states of the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor according to these requirements to adjust the temperature and humidity of the test chamber. When the preset temperature and humidity curve is running, both the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor are in operation. This method, by controlling the operating states of the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor based on the test chamber's temperature and humidity requirements and the operational requirements of the preset temperature and humidity curve, solves the problem of uncontrollable temperature and humidity and varying degrees of temperature and humidity fluctuations during the switching time between different compressors in existing technologies, thereby improving the reliability of temperature and humidity control.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a temperature and humidity control method for a test chamber according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to temperature and humidity control of test chambers, etc. The method can be executed by a temperature and humidity control device for the test chamber. This device can be implemented in the form of software and / or hardware. The device can be integrated into an electronic device such as a computer that has temperature and humidity control function for the test chamber. The temperature and humidity of the test chamber are regulated by a high-temperature compressor and a low-temperature compressor. The method specifically includes the following steps:

[0055] Step 210: Receive the test chamber's operation requirements instruction.

[0056] Step 220: Determine whether the test chamber requires dehumidification based on the operational requirements.

[0057] Step 230: When it is determined that the test chamber has a dehumidification requirement, determine whether the test chamber has a preset temperature and humidity curve operation requirement.

[0058] Step 240: When it is determined that the test chamber has a preset temperature and humidity curve operation requirement, control both the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to work, and control the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor and the valves connected to the low-temperature stage compressor to open.

[0059] Specifically, it can control both the high-temperature and low-temperature compressors to start operating, and control the opening of valves connected to both the high-temperature and low-temperature compressors, such as solenoid valves. The operating speeds of the high-temperature and low-temperature compressors may differ, and can be adjusted according to actual temperature and humidity requirements; no specific limits are set here.

[0060] For example, the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor can dehumidify the test chamber during operation. The low-temperature stage compressor is charged with refrigerant, and the refrigerant evaporation pressure corresponds to an evaporation temperature of -82.2℃. The large heat exchange temperature difference at the evaporation temperature results in a large cooling capacity, which can meet the requirement of maintaining relative humidity below 30% at -35℃ and -40℃ (the dew point temperature corresponding to 30% RH relative humidity at -35℃ is -44.59℃; the dew point temperature corresponding to 30% RH relative humidity at -40℃ is -48.67℃). Dehumidification control through the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor can ensure the overall consistency of the preset temperature and humidity curves and achieve the control requirements of the overall curve. Humidity is regulated throughout the process by the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor. To prevent frost formation on the evaporator, a dehumidification device can be installed to control the dew point temperature of the air entering the chamber below -40℃, maintain a slight positive pressure inside the test chamber, and prevent high-humidity external air from entering the test chamber and frosting on the evaporator surface.

[0061] Step 250: When it is determined that the test chamber does not have the operating requirement of a preset temperature and humidity curve, control the high-temperature stage compressor to work and control the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor to open.

[0062] Step 260: If it is determined that the test chamber does not require dehumidification, determine whether the test chamber requires cooling.

[0063] Step 270: When it is determined that the test chamber needs to be cooled, control both the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor to work, and control the valves connected to the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor to be opened.

[0064] Step 280: When it is determined that the test chamber does not require cooling, determine whether the temperature of the test chamber is within the preset temperature range.

[0065] Specifically, the test chamber can be equipped with a temperature sensor to collect temperature data. The temperature and humidity control device of the test chamber can be electrically connected to the temperature sensor to obtain the temperature of the test chamber. The temperature and humidity control device can pre-store a preset temperature range to determine whether the temperature of the test chamber is within the preset temperature range.

[0066] Step 290: If the temperature of the test chamber is within the preset temperature range, control the high-temperature compressor to work and control the valves connected to the high-temperature compressor to open.

[0067] Step 291: If the temperature of the test chamber exceeds the preset temperature range, control both the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor to work, and control the valves connected to the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor to open.

[0068] The specific size of the preset temperature range can be set according to the actual temperature and humidity requirements, and is not limited here.

[0069] Figure 4 This is a flowchart of another temperature and humidity control method for a test chamber provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The method includes the following steps:

[0070] Step 1: Receive the test chamber's operation requirements instructions.

[0071] Step 2: Based on the operational requirements, determine whether the test chamber requires dehumidification; if yes, proceed to Step 3; if no, proceed to Step 6.

[0072] Step 3: Determine if the test chamber requires a preset temperature and humidity curve for operation; if yes, proceed to step 4; if no, proceed to step 5.

[0073] Step 4: Control both the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to operate, and control the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to open, and then end.

[0074] Step 5: Control the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor, control the opening of the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor, and then end the process.

[0075] Step 6: Determine if the test chamber requires cooling; if yes, proceed to step 7; if no, proceed to step 8.

[0076] Step 7: Control both the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to operate, and control the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to open, and then end.

[0077] Step 8: Determine if the temperature of the test chamber is within the preset temperature range; if yes, proceed to step 9; if no, proceed to step 10.

[0078] Step 9: Control the operation of the high-temperature stage compressor, control the opening of the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor, and then end the process.

[0079] Step 10: Control both the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to operate, and control the valves connected to the high-temperature stage compressor and the low-temperature stage compressor to open.

[0080] The temperature and humidity control method for the test chamber provided in this embodiment controls the working status of the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor according to the temperature and humidity requirements of the test chamber and the operating requirements of the preset temperature and humidity curve. For example, when the preset temperature and humidity curve is running, both the high-temperature compressor and the low-temperature compressor are in working state. This can solve the problem of uncontrollable temperature and humidity in the switching time chamber when different compressors are working in the prior art, and the temperature and humidity fluctuate to different degrees, thereby improving the reliability of temperature and humidity control.
