Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of variable frequency control, and particularly relates to a variable frequency control method, a controller and a device for a solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, variable frequency air conditioners have become the first choice for people because they can control the temperature more precisely, reduce noise, and make people feel more comfortable.

[0003] In the prior art, the core of a variable frequency air conditioner is the change in the motor speed caused by the change in the motor operating frequency, and the rotor rotates through the interaction of the magnetic fields between the stator and the rotor. That is, its refrigeration and heating mainly adjust the ambient temperature by changing the speed of the compressor to achieve the best energy-saving effect. When the ambient temperature reaches the set value, the compressor stops running and only maintains the constancy of the ambient temperature; when the ambient temperature deviates from the set value, the compressor restarts and adjusts the ambient temperature by changing the speed, so as to achieve the purpose of stabilizing the ambient temperature.

[0004] However, when a variable frequency air conditioner starts up, since the ambient temperature has not reached the set temperature, it may operate at the maximum power, and at this time, it consumes more electricity than a conventional air conditioner. After the ambient temperature reaches the set temperature, the variable frequency air conditioner reduces the operating speed of the compressor through an inverter. This method may have energy losses, is strongly interfered by the external environment, and has a slow adjustment speed, resulting in the instability of the traditional air conditioner temperature control. In addition, in the prior art, when detecting the temperature of a variable frequency air conditioner, it is usually necessary to set a sensor on the coil of the air conditioner to detect the coil temperature, so as to detect the refrigeration / heating temperature of the air conditioner. This method is too cumbersome. Summary of the Invention

For those of ordinary skill in the art, without creative efforts, other drawings can also be obtained based on these drawings.

[0022] Figure 3 is the structural schematic diagram of the controller provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Specific Embodiments

[0023] In the following description, specific details such as specific system structures and technologies are presented for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, so as to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art should clearly understand that the present invention can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to avoid unnecessary details from interfering with the description of the present invention.

[0024] Figure 1 is the implementation flowchart of the frequency conversion control method for the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device provided by the embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, in some embodiments, in the frequency conversion control method for the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device, the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device includes a cartridge material that is controlled by a motor; the heating or cooling temperature of the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device depends on the rotational speed of the motor; the method includes:

[0025] S110, obtaining the current ambient temperature and the target temperature set by the user;

[0026] S120, determining the optimal frequency conversion path of the motor in the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device according to the ambient temperature and the target temperature, where the optimal frequency conversion path is the frequency conversion path when the motor energy consumption is the lowest during the operation of the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device;

[0027] S130, adjusting the working frequency of the motor according to the optimal frequency conversion path to minimize the motor energy consumption during the temperature adjustment process by the motor loading or unloading the cartridge material.

[0028] In the embodiments of the present invention, the user can set the target temperature in any way such as through the remote control of the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device or Bluetooth control of the mobile phone. The ambient temperature is detected by a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor can be a temperature sensor installed on the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device itself, or the average temperature of other temperature sensors installed indoors and connected to the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device. In addition, the ambient temperature can also be the temperature value reported by the intelligent Internet of Things in the room.

[0029] In this application, the cartridge material is a shape memory alloy. When the cartridge material deforms under external loading, it generates heat and warms up. When the deformation is restored by unloading, heat is released and the temperature drops. Therefore, the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device relies on stress loading and unloading of the cartridge material for heating and cooling. It can be seen that the temperature rise and fall of the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device mainly depend on the deformation change of the cartridge material connected to the motor, that is, by changing the rotation speed of the motor to change the deformation change of the cartridge material. Therefore, only by controlling the working frequency of the variable-frequency motor can the refrigeration and heating temperature be accurately controlled. In practical applications, the rotation speed of the motor can be changed by changing the power frequency or the working frequency of the motor. In a variable-frequency speed regulation system of an embodiment, the rotation speed of the motor is controlled by changing the power frequency. Reducing the power frequency will reduce the rotation speed of the motor, and increasing the power frequency will increase the rotation speed of the motor. Generally, the relationship between the frequency and the rotation speed conforms to the following formula:

[0030] n = 60f / p

[0031] Wherein, n represents the rotation speed of the motor, f represents the power frequency, and p represents the number of pole pairs of the rotating magnetic field of the motor.

[0032] In another embodiment, the rotation speed of the motor can also be changed by controlling the motor frequency. Among them, the motor frequency and the motor rotation speed are in an inverse relationship.

[0033] In the embodiments of the present invention, the optimal variable-frequency path is the frequency change gradient of the motor working frequency during the operation of the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device, that is, the frequency change gradient of the motor working frequency during the entire stage when the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device warms up or cools down from the ambient temperature to the target temperature and then operates at an energy-saving frequency.

[0034] In one embodiment, when there is a large difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature, in order to meet the demand and reach the target temperature as soon as possible, the operating frequency of the motor when quickly raising or lowering the ambient temperature to the target temperature is set as the first operating frequency. Then, the motor operates at the energy-saving frequency. At this time, the optimal frequency conversion path of the motor is the first operating frequency - the energy-saving frequency. It should be noted that although rapid temperature rise and fall consume a large amount of energy for the motor, due to the short time of rapid temperature rise and fall and the subsequent operation of the motor at the energy-saving frequency, the overall energy consumption of the motor is the lowest, and the subsequent operation of the motor at the energy-saving frequency can also ensure that the ambient temperature remains at a constant temperature (target temperature) state.

[0035] In another embodiment, when the difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is small, on the one hand, for energy conservation, and on the other hand, to keep the ambient temperature at a constant temperature (target temperature) state, the operating frequency of the motor when raising or lowering the ambient temperature to the target temperature is the second operating frequency. Then, the motor operates at the energy-saving frequency. At this time, the optimal frequency conversion path of the motor is the second operating frequency - the energy-saving frequency. In practical applications, the frequency change of the optimal frequency conversion path may change multiple times. The above embodiments are only examples.

[0036] The following gives an example to illustrate the frequency change gradient of the present invention, but it is not a limitation: The target temperature set by the user is 24°C, the current room temperature is 30°C, and the solid-state cartridge unloading stress is in the refrigeration state. At this time, the operating frequency of the variable-frequency motor is adjusted to the highest operating frequency of 100 Hz for rapid refrigeration. After time t, it is gradually reduced to 75 Hz, and after another time t, it is gradually reduced to 55 Hz, and then after another time t, it is gradually reduced to 45 Hz. That is, the frequency of the motor gradually decreases according to a certain gradient, and the reduction amount of each frequency gradient becomes smaller, gradually approaching the operating frequency corresponding to the target temperature, so that the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device gradually changes from the rapid refrigeration mode to the mode of reducing energy consumption.

[0037] In some application scenarios applicable to the embodiments of the present invention, such as user air conditioners, including: household air conditioners, automotive air conditioners, or central air conditioners, etc., maintaining a constant temperature after rapid cooling (refrigeration) or heating (heating) can improve user comfort, and operating at the energy-saving frequency can save the energy consumption of the motor. In some other application scenarios for objects, such as computer room air conditioners, refrigerators, cold storage, refrigerated trucks, data center refrigeration systems, etc., the motor operates at the operating frequency in the optimal frequency conversion path, and can quickly achieve the effect of variable-frequency constant temperature.

[0038] In some embodiments, S120 includes: when the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is greater than a first preset value, taking the shortest temperature adjustment time as the first target and the minimum temperature overshoot as the second target, and using a multi-objective optimization algorithm to optimize and obtain a first optimal frequency conversion path within the interval [a, b], where the temperature adjustment time is the time required to adjust the ambient temperature to the target temperature, the temperature overshoot is the difference exceeding the target temperature during the process of adjusting the ambient temperature to the target temperature, a is the operating frequency corresponding to the target temperature, and b is the maximum operating frequency of the motor.

[0039] In the embodiments of the present invention, when the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is greater than the first preset value, that is, the deviation between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is large. At this time, rapid cooling / heating is performed to adjust to the target temperature, and then the operating frequency of the motor is adjusted to the energy-saving frequency for operation, so as to minimize the overall energy consumption of the motor. Among them, the first preset value can be set according to the actual application scenario.

[0040] In this process, the first stage takes the shortest temperature rise and fall time as the main control target, that is, the first target, which is specifically reflected as the minimum adjustment time. The second stage takes the temperature overshoot as the main control target, that is, the second target. The smaller the overshoot, the less wasted energy, and the lowest energy consumption of the motor during the overall operation of the solid-state elastic card refrigeration and heating device. Among them, the demarcation point between the first stage and the second stage is calculated by a multi-objective optimization algorithm. Due to the different ambient temperatures and target temperatures, the optimal frequency conversion paths adopted each time frequency conversion are different.

[0041] In the embodiments of the present invention, the multi-objective optimization algorithm can be a multi-objective particle swarm algorithm, a multi-objective genetic algorithm, etc., which are not limited herein. If the current operating frequency is not within [a, b], the operating frequency corresponding to the target temperature is used as the initial value of the first optimal frequency conversion path. If the current operating frequency is within [a, b], the current operating frequency is used as the initial value of the first optimal frequency conversion path.

[0042] After determining the initial value, a first time series of operating frequencies is established accordingly, and each value in the series is the initial value. The first value in the series is fixed as the initial value and remains unchanged, and other values are optimized by the multi-objective optimization algorithm. The constraint condition during the optimization process is that the difference between adjacent two values is not greater than the preset difference to ensure the smooth adjustment of the operating frequency.

[0043] Since the refrigeration / heating temperature of the solid-state elastic card refrigeration and heating device depends on the operating frequency. After each iterative optimization, the refrigeration / heating temperature at each subsequent moment is calculated according to the values of the operating frequencies in the time series. Combining the current ambient temperature and the temperature prediction model, the temperature prediction value within the subsequent time can be predicted. Among them, the temperature prediction model can be a neural network model, a support vector machine, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0044] During the process from when the predicted temperature exceeds the target temperature until it callbacks, the exceeded part is the temperature overshoot. The moment from the current time to when the overshoot of the predicted temperature is less than the preset overshoot is defined as the adjustment time.

[0045] After each iteration, the temperature overshoot and the adjustment time can be calculated. Taking the minimization of these two data as the goal, the control curve of the optimal operating frequency can be optimized, which is the above-mentioned first optimal variable frequency path.

[0046] In some embodiments, S120 includes: when the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is not greater than the first preset value and does not reach the preset range where the target temperature is located, using a multi-objective optimization algorithm to optimize the current operating frequency of the motor with the minimum temperature overshoot as the first goal and the maximum energy efficiency ratio as the second goal to obtain the second optimal variable frequency path.

[0047] In the embodiments of the present invention, when the absolute value of the difference between the ambient temperature and the target temperature value is not greater than the first preset value, that is, the deviation between the ambient temperature and the target temperature is small and does not reach the preset range where the target temperature is located, it is necessary to switch from the fast cooling / heating mode to the energy-saving mode, which is specifically reflected in the minimum temperature overshoot. The smaller the overshoot, the closer the ambient temperature is to the target temperature. The minimum energy consumption is the main control goal, which is specifically reflected in the maximum energy efficiency ratio (the ratio of the cooling effect to the power consumption).

[0048] In the embodiments of the present invention, the related calculations of the second optimal variable frequency path are the same as the principle of the above-mentioned first optimal variable frequency path, and the only difference lies in the optimization goals, which will not be described here again. Similarly, the rotational speed value sequence constructed for the initial value is optimized to obtain the second optimal variable frequency path. The constraint condition is that the difference between two adjacent values is not greater than the preset difference to ensure the smooth adjustment of the rotational speed. And after the operating frequency at each calculated moment drops to be less than the operating frequency corresponding to the target temperature, it only needs to maintain the overall downward trend, and it is not necessary for the operating frequency at each subsequent moment to be less than the previous moment. It should be noted that in the first optimal variable frequency path and the second optimal variable frequency path, the solid-state cartridge cooling and heating device operates at the energy-saving frequency after reaching the range where the target temperature is located.

[0049] In some embodiments, S120 includes: when the ambient temperature reaches the preset range where the target temperature is located, taking the energy-saving frequency corresponding to the target temperature as the operating frequency of the motor.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present invention, the preset range where the target temperature is located is a relatively small temperature range. For example, the target temperature is 25 °C, and the preset range is 24.8 - 25.2 °C. When the target temperature fluctuates within the preset range, it can be considered in a constant temperature state. At this time, the energy-saving frequency needs to be used as the operating frequency to minimize the energy consumption of the solid-state cartridge refrigeration and heating device as much as possible.

[0051] It should be noted that the energy-saving frequency is the operating frequency that minimizes the motor energy consumption when the ambient temperature reaches the preset range of the target temperature. Since the ambient temperature is greatly affected by the external environment, the energy-saving frequency can be determined by the target temperature. The specific method includes: aiming at the smallest temperature overshoot, using the operating frequency of the motor running at the target temperature as the initial value, optimizing the operating frequency of the motor at the target temperature by using a single-objective optimization algorithm, and taking the optimized frequency as the energy-saving frequency of the target temperature. In this way, the energy-saving frequency can be dynamically adjusted to ensure that the adjusted temperature remains constant.

[0052] In an embodiment of the present invention, since the external ambient temperature is constantly changing, a fixed operating frequency is not sufficient to strictly maintain the ambient temperature at the target temperature. Therefore, the energy-saving temperature of the present invention also needs to be adjusted in real time. The present invention calculates the temperature overshoot according to the energy-saving frequency, which optimizes the constructed frequency sequence of the initial value to obtain the optimal energy-saving frequency. The constraint condition is that the difference between two adjacent values is not greater than the preset difference to ensure the smooth adjustment of the rotation speed.

[0053] In some embodiments, S120 includes: inputting the target temperature and the ambient temperature into a pre-trained optimal frequency conversion path model to obtain the optimal frequency conversion path of the motor, where the optimal frequency conversion path is the frequency change gradient with the minimum energy consumption when adjusting the ambient temperature to the target temperature.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, the optimal frequency conversion path model can be an unsupervised neural network model, a deep learning model, etc., which is not limited herein.

[0055] Among them, the optimal frequency conversion path model is trained in the following manner:

[0056] Collect the set temperature and the ambient temperature within the historical period, and record the path of the operating frequency of the motor within this historical period. Using the set temperature and the ambient temperature within the historical period as the input and the operating frequency path with the lowest motor energy consumption within this historical period as the output, train the optimal frequency conversion path model.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present invention, the set temperature and ambient temperature in the historical period, and the data related to the working frequency path when the motor energy consumption is the lowest can be classified according to the range of the temperature difference between the set temperature and the ambient temperature in the above embodiments, and then the optimal frequency conversion path model is trained separately, so that when the optimal frequency conversion path model recognizes that the ambient temperature and the target temperature are greater than the preset value, it adjusts to the target temperature in the fastest time according to the output optimal frequency conversion path and then operates at the energy-saving frequency, or when it recognizes that the ambient temperature and the target temperature are not greater than the preset value and not within the preset range of the target temperature, it adjusts to the target temperature for energy-saving purposes according to the output optimal frequency conversion path and then operates at the energy-saving frequency, or when it recognizes that the ambient temperature is within the range of the target temperature, it operates at the energy-saving frequency. It should be noted that the energy-saving frequency in this embodiment is obtained by training the optimal frequency conversion path model using historical data.

[0058] Specifically, an adversarial network can be used as the optimal frequency conversion path model. The adversarial network includes a generator, a discriminator, and an optimizer, and multiple stages of training are required;

[0059] First, the historical path is used as the true value. At the same time, a set of fake samples is randomly generated by the generator. The set of fake samples includes multiple frequency conversion paths showing a downward trend. The discriminator calculates the cross-entropy loss between these frequency conversion paths and the historical path, and backpropagates it to the generator to minimize the loss. The frequency conversion paths recognized as true by the discriminator and the historical path form a path set a. The optimizer calculates the weighted value of the comfort and energy consumption of each path in the path set a (the specific weights can be set) as the score. After sorting according to the score, the first preset number (or preset proportion) of paths are used as the new true value for the next stage of training. After several stages of training, the generator can generate a reasonable and highest-scoring (balancing comfort and energy consumption) frequency conversion path according to the difference between the room temperature and the target temperature, which is used as the optimal frequency conversion path.

[0060] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0061] 1. Through frequency conversion control, the motor drive system performs closed-loop frequency conversion control for the target temperature. When the ambient temperature (or the target working area temperature) is very close to and reaches the set target temperature value, the motor operates adaptively at a low frequency, which is beneficial to reducing temperature fluctuations, achieving energy conservation, constant temperature comfort, and noise reduction.

[0062] 2. The present invention proposes a method for calculating the rotational speed based on minimizing the adjustment time and overshoot, which can minimize the temperature overshoot problem while achieving fast adjustment.

[0063] 3. The solid-state elastic card refrigeration and heating device of the present invention uses a shape memory alloy that can quickly refrigerate and heat when stress is loaded or unloaded. The refrigeration and heating temperature can be accurately calculated directly based on the force loaded by the motor (calculated from the magnitude of the working frequency), without the need to set a temperature sensor, resulting in lower costs and a simpler control logic.

[0064] The variable-frequency device of the present invention can be a variable-frequency refrigeration and heating device in any specific scenario. For example, air conditioners, vehicle-mounted air conditioners, modular refrigeration and heating units, heating and cooling integrated machines, etc.

[0065] It should be understood that the magnitudes of the sequence numbers of the steps in the above embodiments do not mean the order of execution. The order of execution of each process should be determined according to its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation to the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.
