[0002] The environment in the automobile passenger cabin is one of the important factors of automobile comfort, and the environment state directly affects the riding environment of the passengers. The environment in the automobile passenger cabin is controlled by the airflow provided by the air conditioning system. With the popularity and development of new energy vehicles, the current society has higher and higher requirements for the cruising range of new energy vehicles. Regardless of the ability of the hardware itself, in high temperature or low temperature environment, the energy consumption caused by the comfort requirements of the passenger cabin is large, which determines that in winter or summer, or in cold and hot regions, the cruising range of new energy vehicles can be achieved. Therefore, the energy consumption of the passenger cabin is particularly important for the cruising range of new energy vehicles.

[0035] Embodiments of the present application are described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar components or components having the same or similar functions are denoted by the same or similar reference numerals throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0036] A cabin environment adjusting method and device are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the related art mentioned in the background art section, only the action of the air conditioner is considered when adjusting the cabin environment, without considering the state of the components on the vehicle that can affect the cabin environment, resulting in the technical problem that the energy consumption cannot be guaranteed to be the lowest when the air conditioner is controlled. The present application provides a cabin environment adjusting method, in which, according to the boundary conditions required for adjusting the cabin environment, the vehicle operating mode and the air conditioner action with the lowest energy consumption that can adjust the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time are preliminarily determined. When the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the air conditioner accessory state, the air intake grille state or the window opening degree in the boundary conditions are adjusted to reduce the energy consumption. The vehicle operating mode and the air conditioner action with the lowest energy consumption that can adjust the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time are determined again according to the adjusted boundary conditions. When determining the air conditioner action, the air conditioner accessory state, the air intake grille state and the window opening degree are adjusted to further reduce the energy consumption of the air conditioner, so as to guarantee the lowest energy consumption of the air conditioner on the basis of meeting the comfort of the cabin, thereby effectively improving the cruising range of the vehicle. At the same time, by limiting the adjustment of the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time, the timeliness of adjusting the cabin environment is guaranteed. Thus, the technical problem that the lowest energy consumption of the air conditioner cannot be guaranteed on the basis of meeting the comfort of the cabin in the related art is solved.

[0037] Specifically, Figure 1 A flowchart of a cabin environment adjusting method provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1.

[0038] As Figure 1 shown, the cabin environment adjusting method includes the following steps:

[0039] In step S301, the boundary conditions required for adjusting the cabin environment are obtained.

[0040] It can be understood that the adjustment of the cabin environment is related to the air intake grille and the window opening degree in addition to the air conditioner. The adjustment of the cabin environment can be achieved by adjusting the state of the air conditioner, the air intake grille and the window opening degree. In addition, when adjusting the cabin environment by the air conditioner, the vehicle operating mode, the vehicle speed, the ambient temperature, the current cabin temperature, the air conditioner accessory state and the target cabin temperature need to be considered. The target cabin temperature is used to measure whether the cabin environment reaches a comfortable point.

[0041] Optionally, the boundary conditions required for cabin environment adjustment include vehicle speed, ambient temperature, current cabin temperature, target cabin temperature, air conditioning accessory status, air intake grille status, and window opening.

[0042] The target cabin temperature is set according to the comfort requirements of the occupants.

[0043] The status of air conditioning accessories includes the flow rate ratio when heating the cabin through heaters and the engine, and the air conditioning return air ratio.

[0044] In step S302, based on boundary conditions, the vehicle operating mode that can adjust the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time, the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption, and the energy consumption of the air conditioning action are initially determined.

[0045] Optionally, based on boundary conditions and the cabin environment adjustment model, the vehicle operation mode that can adjust the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time, the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption, and the energy consumption of the air conditioning action are initially determined.

[0046] Among them, air conditioning operation refers to the air volume of the air conditioner blower, the speed of the air conditioner compressor, or the heating (HVH) power of the air conditioner.

[0047] The vehicle operating modes include hybrid (HEV) mode and pure electric (EV) mode.

[0048] The cabin environment regulation model takes the boundary conditions required for cabin environment regulation as input, and the vehicle operation mode that can adjust the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time, the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption, and the energy consumption of the air conditioning action as output. It is constructed using a fuzzy neural network and obtained after training with relevant training data.

[0049] The training data consists of existing experimental and simulation data under various operating conditions. Each data set includes the status of air conditioning accessories, the status of the air intake grille, the opening degree of the windows, the initial cabin temperature, the target cabin temperature, the vehicle speed, the blower air volume, the compressor speed, the heating power, the vehicle operating mode, the adjustment time to adjust the cabin temperature to the target cabin temperature, and the corresponding air conditioning energy consumption.

[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, the constructed fuzzy neural network is trained using the acquired training data, and once training is complete, a cabin environment regulation model is obtained.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, when the cabin environment adjustment model is obtained and applied to regulate the actual cabin environment of the vehicle, the boundary conditions required for cabin environment adjustment obtained in step S301 are substituted into the cabin environment adjustment model to obtain the vehicle operation mode that can adjust the cabin environment to a comfortable point within a set time, the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption, and the energy consumption of the air conditioning action.

[0052] By limiting the determined air conditioning action and vehicle operation mode, the environment in the cabin can be adjusted to a comfortable point within a set time, thereby ensuring the timeliness of the environment adjustment in the cabin.

[0053] The set time can be set according to actual conditions.

[0054] In step S303, when the energy consumption is less than or equal to the set energy consumption, the vehicle and the air conditioner are controlled according to the initially determined vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption.

[0055] When the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the air conditioning accessory state, the air intake grille state or the window opening degree in the boundary condition are adjusted to reduce the energy consumption, and the vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption that can adjust the environment in the cabin to a comfortable point within a set time are re-determined according to the adjusted boundary condition; the air conditioning accessory, the air intake grille, the window, the vehicle and the air conditioner are controlled according to the adjusted air conditioning accessory state, the air intake grille state and the window opening degree, and the re-determined vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption.

[0056] Optionally, as shown in Figure 4 When the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the air conditioning action is refrigeration, and the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the set speed, the air intake grille state in the boundary condition is adjusted, and the adjusted air intake grille state is fully open to ensure the lowest heat backflow of the condenser and improve the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner, then the vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption that can adjust the environment in the cabin to a comfortable point within a set time are re-determined according to the boundary condition after adjusting the air intake grille state and the cabin environment adjustment model, the vehicle and the air conditioner are controlled according to the re-determined vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action, and the air intake grille is controlled to be fully open.

[0057] When the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the air conditioning action is refrigeration, and the vehicle speed is greater than the set speed, the window opening degree in the boundary condition is adjusted, and the adjusted window opening degree is the set opening degree to improve the wind feeling of the human body, ensure the comfortable perception of the human body, and reduce the demand for temperature, then the vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action with the lowest energy consumption that can adjust the environment in the cabin to a comfortable point within a set time are re-determined according to the boundary condition after adjusting the window opening degree and the cabin environment adjustment model, the vehicle and the air conditioner are controlled according to the re-determined vehicle operation mode and the air conditioning action, and the window is controlled to be opened to the set opening degree.

[0058] The set opening degree is half open, which can improve the wind feeling of the human body, prevent noise generated by the wind, and reduce the comfort of the passengers in the vehicle.

[0059] When the air conditioner is in heating mode and the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the air conditioner accessory state in the boundary condition is adjusted until the energy consumption of the air conditioner action determined according to the adjusted air conditioner accessory state, the re-determined vehicle running mode and the lowest energy consumption air conditioner action is less than or equal to the set energy consumption, or the energy consumption of the air conditioner action determined according to the adjusted air conditioner accessory state, the re-determined vehicle running mode and the lowest energy consumption air conditioner action is the smallest.

[0060] The air conditioner accessory state includes the flow ratio when the heater and the engine heat the cabin, and the air conditioner return air ratio; when the air conditioner is in heating mode and the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the flow ratio and the air conditioner return air ratio are gradually increased according to the set ratio, and when the flow ratio and the air conditioner return air ratio are increased to the energy consumption of the air conditioner action determined according to the adjusted air conditioner accessory state, the re-determined vehicle running mode and the lowest energy consumption air conditioner action is less than or equal to the set energy consumption, the increased flow ratio and air conditioner return air ratio are the required flow ratio and air conditioner return ratio; and when the flow ratio and the air conditioner return air ratio are increased to the energy consumption of the air conditioner action determined according to the adjusted air conditioner accessory state, the re-determined vehicle running mode and the lowest energy consumption air conditioner action is still greater than the set energy consumption, the flow ratio and the air conditioner return air ratio selected when the energy consumption of the air conditioner action is the smallest are the required flow ratio and air conditioner return ratio.

[0061] Then, according to the re-determined vehicle running mode and the air conditioner action, the vehicle and the air conditioner are controlled, and the flow ratio and the air conditioner return air ratio are adjusted to the required flow ratio and air conditioner return ratio to ensure that the energy consumption of the air conditioner is the smallest.

[0062] Since the air conditioner is in heating mode, the vehicle window glass may fog due to the influence of the cabin humidity, thereby affecting the driving of the vehicle; in order to defog in time and effectively in the air conditioner heating mode, the application embodiment also limits that when the air conditioner is in heating mode, according to the adjusted air conditioner accessory state, the re-determined vehicle running mode and the lowest energy consumption air conditioner action, the air conditioner accessory, the vehicle and the air conditioner are controlled, and then the cabin humidity is obtained.

[0063] When the cabin humidity is less than or equal to the set humidity value, the states of the air conditioner accessory, the vehicle and the air conditioner are kept unchanged.

[0064] When the cabin humidity is greater than the set humidity value and the vehicle speed is less than or equal to the set vehicle speed, the vehicle window is controlled to be opened to defog by opening the vehicle window.

[0065] When the humidity in the cabin is greater than the set humidity value and the vehicle speed is greater than the set vehicle speed, the vehicle is controlled to start the defogging mode, and the air conditioning accessory state is adjusted again until the energy consumption of the air conditioning action that can adjust the environment in the cabin to the comfort point in the set time is less than or equal to the set energy consumption or the energy consumption of the air conditioning action that can adjust the environment in the cabin to the comfort point in the set time is minimum according to the boundary condition after the air conditioning accessory state is adjusted again, and the humidity in the cabin is less than or equal to the set humidity value after the vehicle is controlled through the vehicle running mode and the air conditioning action that are determined again, the timely and effective defogging in the high-speed running state of the vehicle is realized, and the cabin comfort and the minimum energy consumption of the air conditioning are ensured.

[0066] When the humidity in the cabin is greater than the set humidity value and the vehicle speed is greater than the set vehicle speed, the vehicle is controlled to start the defogging mode, and the vehicle running mode and the air conditioning action that can adjust the environment in the cabin to the comfort point in the set time and have the minimum energy consumption are determined again according to the boundary condition after the air conditioning accessory state is adjusted again and the cabin environment adjustment model after the air conditioning accessory state is adjusted again.

[0067] According to the cabin environment adjustment method provided in the embodiments of the present application, the vehicle running mode and the air conditioning action that can adjust the environment in the cabin to the comfort point in the set time and have the minimum energy consumption are determined according to the boundary condition required for the cabin environment adjustment, when the energy consumption is greater than the set energy consumption, the air conditioning accessory state, the air inlet grille state or the vehicle window opening degree in the boundary condition is adjusted to reduce the energy consumption, and the vehicle running mode and the air conditioning action that can adjust the environment in the cabin to the comfort point in the set time and have the minimum energy consumption are determined again according to the boundary condition after the adjustment; when the air conditioning action is determined, the air conditioning accessory state, the air inlet grille state and the vehicle window opening degree are adjusted to further reduce the energy consumption of the air conditioning, the cabin comfort is ensured on the basis of ensuring the minimum energy consumption of the air conditioning, and therefore the cruising range of the vehicle is effectively improved.

[0068] Meanwhile, the timeliness of the adjustment of the environment in the cabin is ensured by limiting the environment in the cabin to be adjusted to the comfort point in the set time. Therefore, the technical problem that the cabin comfort cannot be ensured on the basis of ensuring the minimum energy consumption of the air conditioning in the related art is solved.
