[0025] By providing an intelligent control method and system for the energy consumption of an air cooler in the embodiments of the present application, the technical problem in the prior art of increased energy consumption due to unnecessary drive - mode switching is solved.

[0026] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0027] It should be noted that the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or server that includes a series of steps or units need not be limited to those clearly listed steps or units, but may include other steps or modules that are not clearly listed or are inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an intelligent control method for the energy consumption of a cold air blower. Among them, the method includes:

[0030] Obtain a dual-drive cold air blower, where the dual-drive cold air blower includes a first drive system and a second drive system, and the first drive system and the second drive system operate independently;

[0031] Interact with the dual-drive cold air blower to obtain information about the dual-drive cold air blower. The dual-drive cold air blower includes a first drive system and a second drive system, and the first drive system and the second drive system operate independently.

[0032] Obtain the single-drive mode and the dual-drive mode of the dual-drive cold air blower. Among them, the single-drive mode is a drive mode in which the first drive system or the second drive system operates alone, and the dual-drive mode is a drive mode in which the first drive system and the second drive system operate cooperatively;

[0033] The single-drive mode refers to a mode in which only one of the first drive system or the second drive system is used for operation. In the single-drive mode, the cooling capacity of the cold air blower may be limited to a certain extent, but the energy consumption is relatively low. The dual-drive mode refers to a mode in which the first drive system and the second drive system work simultaneously and cooperate with each other. In the dual-drive mode, the cooling capacity of the cold air blower reaches the maximum, but the energy consumption will also increase accordingly.

[0034] Generate a mode switching sample according to the single-drive mode and the dual-drive mode;

[0035] The mode switching sample is a set of specific processes and data that record the cold air blower switching from one mode to another in different working environments. Generate a mode switching sample according to the single-drive mode and the dual-drive mode.

[0036] Furthermore, it includes:

[0037] The mode switching sample includes a single-dual drive switching mode sample and a dual-single drive switching mode sample;

[0038] Among them, the single - dual drive switching mode samples include the drive mode where the first drive system operates alone being switched to the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation, and the drive mode where the second drive system operates alone being switched to the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation;

[0039] The dual - single drive switching mode samples include the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation being switched to the drive mode where the first drive system operates alone, and the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation being switched to the drive mode where the second drive system operates alone.

[0040] The mode switching samples record the process of the cooling fan switching from the single - drive mode to the dual - drive mode and then back to the single - drive mode under different working environments, including single - dual drive switching mode samples and dual - single drive switching mode samples. The single - dual drive switching mode samples are usually due to an increase in cooling demand or a rise in ambient temperature, which requires higher cooling efficiency, thus triggering the mode switch. The single - dual drive switching mode samples include the drive mode where the first drive system operates alone being switched to the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation, and the drive mode where the second drive system operates alone being switched to the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation. The dual - single drive switching mode samples, on the other hand, reflect the process of returning from the high - efficiency cooling state to the energy - saving state. The dual - single drive switching mode samples include the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation being switched to the drive mode where the first drive system operates alone, and the drive mode where the first drive system and the second drive system operate in cooperation being switched to the drive mode where the second drive system operates alone.

[0041] By collecting energy consumption data for each mode switching process in the mode switching samples, a switching energy consumption dataset is output;

[0042] By collecting energy consumption for each mode switching process in the single - dual drive switching mode samples and the dual - single drive switching mode samples, a switching energy consumption dataset is output. The switching energy consumption dataset not only contains the energy consumption data under different switching modes but also reflects the energy consumption changes during the switching process.

[0043] Furthermore, collecting energy consumption data for each mode switching process in the mode switching samples also includes:

[0044] Collecting energy consumption data for the single - dual drive switching mode samples includes system startup energy consumption data, system adjustment energy consumption data, and load change energy consumption data;

[0045] Collect energy consumption data for the dual - single drive switching mode samples, including system adjustment energy consumption data and load change energy consumption data.

[0046] Collect energy consumption data for the single - dual drive switching mode samples, including system startup energy consumption data, system adjustment energy consumption data, and load change energy consumption data. System startup energy consumption data refers to the energy consumed to start and reach a stable operating state when the second drive system is activated. System adjustment energy consumption data refers to the energy consumption generated when the control system of the cooling fan needs to be adjusted accordingly to ensure the coordinated operation of the two drive systems when switching from the single - drive mode to the dual - drive mode. Load change energy consumption data refers to the additional energy consumption of the dual - drive system to adapt to changes in the load (i.e., cooling demand). Collect energy consumption data for the dual - single drive switching mode samples, including system adjustment energy consumption data and load change energy consumption data. The startup energy consumption when switching from the single - drive mode to the dual - drive mode is extremely small and can be ignored. System adjustment energy consumption data is the energy consumption generated when the system needs to make internal adjustments to maintain a stable cooling effect when switching from the dual - drive mode to the single - drive mode. Load change energy consumption data is the energy consumption of the system to adapt to these changes when the load changes.

[0047] Train a mode switching decision - maker with the switching energy consumption data set and the identification information indicating the energy - saving effect, and obtain a mode switching decision result according to the mode switching decision - maker;

[0048] Use the switching energy consumption data set and the identification information indicating the energy - saving effect to train a mode switching decision - maker. The mode switching decision - maker is used to judge whether energy - saving can be achieved after switching. For example, when the additional energy consumption is temporary and compared with the cooling effect and efficiency improvement brought by the dual - drive mode, the decision is to switch. That is to say, if a good energy - saving effect is brought, it can be switched; otherwise, it cannot be switched. Obtain a mode switching decision result according to the mode switching decision - maker. The mode switching decision result reflects the working mode that should be selected in the current situation to achieve the best energy - saving effect.

[0049] Furthermore, training a mode switching decision - maker with the switching energy consumption data set and the identification information indicating the energy - saving effect, the method includes:

[0050] Obtain the switching energy consumption data set, where the switching energy consumption data set corresponds to the mode switching samples;

[0051] Obtain the first operating energy consumption data set and the second operating energy consumption data set of the first drive system and the second drive system operating independently;

[0052] Obtain the coordinated operating energy consumption data set of the first drive system and the second drive system operating in coordination;

[0053] Train a mode switching decision maker according to the first operating energy consumption dataset, the second operating energy consumption dataset, the collaborative operating energy consumption dataset, the switching energy consumption dataset, and the identification information indicating the energy-saving effect. The mode switching decision maker includes a result with a decision return of 1 and a result with a decision return of 0.

[0054] To train the mode switching decision maker, specifically, obtain the switching energy consumption dataset corresponding to the mode switching samples, including the energy consumption data during the single-dual drive switching and dual-single drive switching; obtain the energy consumption data when the first drive system and the second drive system operate independently, including the first operating energy consumption dataset and the second operating energy consumption dataset of the first drive system and the second drive system operating independently; obtain the energy consumption data when the first drive system and the second drive system operate collaboratively, that is, the collaborative operating energy consumption dataset; combine the first operating energy consumption dataset, the second operating energy consumption dataset, the collaborative operating energy consumption dataset with the identification information indicating the energy-saving effect for training the mode switching decision maker. The identification information can help the decision maker understand the relationship between energy consumption and energy-saving effect in different modes, so as to learn how to make the optimal mode switching decision according to the real-time operating environment and cooling requirements. During the training process, the mode switching decision maker will learn based on the input dataset and output decision results, including a result with a decision return of 1 and a result with a decision return of 0.

[0055] Furthermore, the method further includes:

[0056] Determine the current drive mode and the drive mode to be switched of the dual-drive air cooler;

[0057] Input the current drive mode and the drive mode to be switched into the mode switching decision maker, and locate the first matching switching mode according to the mode switching decision maker;

[0058] Call the matching energy consumption dataset from the switching energy consumption dataset according to the first matching switching mode;

[0059] The mode switching decision maker identifies the matching energy consumption dataset and outputs a mode switching decision result.

[0060] When determining the energy consumption optimization strategy of a dual - drive air cooler, it is necessary to first clarify its current drive mode and the drive mode to be switched. The current drive mode refers to the drive state in which the air cooler is currently operating, which may be the first drive system operating alone, the second drive system operating alone, or the two drive systems operating in cooperation. The drive mode to be switched is the target drive state to which the air cooler will switch according to factors such as real - time cooling demand, ambient temperature, and energy - saving goals. Taking the current drive mode and the drive mode to be switched as input information and inputting them into the mode - switching decision - maker, the decision - maker will, based on the knowledge and rules it has learned, locate the first matching switching mode in the switching energy - consumption dataset that matches the current and the drive mode to be switched. The first matching switching mode is a historical switching mode found in the switching energy - consumption dataset that is closest to the current situation and includes the energy - consumption data and relevant information when switching from the current drive mode to the drive mode to be switched. According to the first matching switching mode, the matching energy - consumption dataset corresponding to the first matching switching mode is called from the switching energy - consumption dataset. The matching energy - consumption dataset contains the energy - consumption conditions of each link during the switching process. The mode - switching decision - maker comprehensively judges whether the mode should be switched currently, as well as the expected energy consumption and energy - saving effect after the switch, based on the energy - consumption trend, change characteristics, and energy - saving effect identification information in the matching energy - consumption dataset, and finally outputs the mode - switching decision result.

[0061] Furthermore, the mode - switching decision - maker's identification of the matching energy - consumption dataset includes:

[0062] Connect the control terminal of the dual - drive air cooler to obtain preset operation indicators;

[0063] Predict the first predicted energy - consumption indicator of the dual - drive air cooler without mode - switching in the current drive mode according to the preset operation indicators;

[0064] Predict the second predicted energy - consumption indicator of the dual - drive air cooler when switching from the current drive mode to the drive mode to be switched according to the preset operation indicators and the matching energy - consumption dataset;

[0065] Evaluate the energy - saving effect based on the energy - consumption difference between the first predicted energy - consumption indicator and the second predicted energy - consumption indicator, and output the energy - saving effect indicator;

[0066] When the energy - saving effect indicator is greater than the preset energy - saving effect indicator, output a result with a decision return of 1;

[0067] When the energy - saving effect indicator is not greater than the preset energy - saving effect indicator, output a result with a decision return of 0.

[0068] The control terminal of the dual-drive air cooler is connected and preset operation indicators are obtained. The preset operation indicators include cooling demand, working time, ambient temperature, etc., which provide basic data for evaluating the energy consumption performance of the air cooler. The first predicted energy consumption indicator of the dual-drive air cooler without mode switching in the current driving mode is predicted according to the preset operation indicator, that is, by analyzing the operating characteristics and historical data of the air cooler and combining the current operating conditions, the energy consumption of the air cooler in the current mode is estimated. At the same time, according to the preset operation indicator and matching energy consumption data set, the second predicted energy consumption indicator of the dual-drive air cooler switching from the current driving mode to the driving mode to be switched is predicted. After obtaining the first predicted energy consumption indicator and the second predicted energy consumption indicator, the energy consumption difference between the two is calculated, and the energy saving effect is evaluated. The energy consumption difference reflects the degree of influence of mode switching on energy consumption. Based on the result of the energy saving effect evaluation, the energy saving effect indicator is output to represent the energy saving effect brought by the mode switching. The decision of mode switching is made according to the comparison result between the energy saving effect indicator and the preset energy saving effect indicator. If the energy saving effect indicator is greater than the preset energy saving effect indicator, it means that the mode switching can bring significant energy saving effect, so the output decision returns a result of 1, and it is recommended to switch the mode. On the contrary, if the energy-saving effect index is not greater than the preset energy-saving effect index, it means that the current mode is already relatively energy-saving, or the cost of switching modes is high, so the output decision returns a result of 0, and it is recommended to maintain the current driving mode.

[0069] Furthermore, after determining the current driving mode and the driving mode to be switched of the dual-drive air cooler, the method further includes:

[0070] If the current driving mode of the dual-drive air cooler is the single-drive mode and the driving mode to be switched is the dual-drive mode, obtaining a decision-override instruction;

[0071] According to the decision override instruction, the decision return result is overwritten with a decision return result of 1.

[0072] If the current driving mode of the dual-drive air cooler is the single-drive mode and the driving mode to be switched is the dual-drive mode, the system obtains a decision override instruction for mode switching. According to the decision override instruction, the decision return result is overwritten to 1. The decision override mechanism enables the system to flexibly adjust the mode switching strategy to meet specific needs or deal with special circumstances, ensuring that the operation of the air cooler meets actual needs and safety standards.

[0073] The dual-drive air cooler is subjected to mode switching control according to the mode switching decision result.

[0074] Perform mode switching control on the dual - drive cooling fan according to the mode switching decision result. When the mode switching decision result returns 1, it means switching from the current drive mode to the to - be - switched drive mode. When the mode switching decision result returns 0, it means maintaining the current drive mode unchanged. By performing mode switching control on the dual - drive cooling fan according to the mode switching decision result, intelligent control of the energy consumption of the cooling fan is achieved.

[0075] In summary, the embodiments of the present application have at least the following technical effects:

[0076] First, obtain a dual - drive cooling fan. The dual - drive cooling fan includes a first drive system and a second drive system, and the first drive system and the second drive system operate independently. Then, obtain the single - drive mode and the dual - drive mode of the dual - drive cooling fan. Among them, the single - drive mode is a drive mode in which either the first drive system or the second drive system operates alone, and the dual - drive mode is a drive mode in which the first drive system and the second drive system operate collaboratively. Then, generate mode - switching samples according to the single - drive mode and the dual - drive mode. By collecting energy consumption data for each mode - switching process in the mode - switching samples, an energy - consumption data set for switching is output. Using the energy - consumption data set for switching and identification information indicating the energy - saving effect, train a mode - switching decision maker, and obtain a mode - switching decision result according to the mode - switching decision maker. Finally, perform mode - switching control on the dual - drive cooling fan according to the mode - switching decision result. This solves the technical problem in the prior art of increased energy consumption due to unnecessary drive - mode switching, and achieves the technical effect of reducing unnecessary drive - mode switching and lowering energy consumption.
