[0059] The system structure of air conditioning is as follows Figure 3As shown, the throttling component of the air conditioner is a first-stage electronic expansion valve 31, the first branch throttling component is a first-stage electronic expansion valve 32, and the second branch throttling component is a second-stage electronic expansion valve 33. Specifically, the pipeline at the exhaust port 14 of the compressor 10 of the air conditioner passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 20 and the first-stage electronic expansion valve 31 in sequence and is connected to the flasher 40. The flasher 40 has two refrigerant outlets, one of which is connected to the third air intake port 13 of the compressor, and the other refrigerant outlet is connected to the compressor with a first branch and a second branch in parallel. On the first branch, along the direction from the flasher 40 to the compressor 10, the first-stage electronic expansion valve 32 and the first indoor heat exchanger 51 are arranged in sequence, and finally connected to the first air intake port 11 of the compressor. On the second branch, along the direction from the flasher 40 to the compressor 10, the second-stage electronic expansion valve 33 and the second indoor heat exchanger 52 are arranged in sequence, and finally connected to the second air intake port 12 of the compressor.

In the second stage, the operating parameters are calculated based on the PD feedback control, and the two indoor heat exchangers are coupled to process the sensible heat load and latent heat load, so as to achieve the purpose of accurately controlling temperature and humidity and maintaining the efficient operation of the air conditioning system. Among them, for the compressor, internal fan, and throttling component, the judgment conditions for choosing to execute the first stage or the second stage are different.

Specifically, the refrigerant mass flow rate of the first-stage electronic expansion valve is calculated based on the refrigerant mass flow rate of the first-stage electronic expansion valve and the second-stage electronic expansion valve, and is converted into an opening value based on the relationship between the mass flow rate and the opening degree. The first-stage electronic expansion valve is controlled based on the opening value. The calculation formula is:

[0071] x_ft=i*(t_c_o-t_ft_target) / (jk*t_ft_target).
[0072] In the formula, i, j, and k are pre-stored coefficients determined by experiments; t_c_o is the condenser outlet temperature; t_ft_target is the target value of the intermediate temperature of the first-stage electronic expansion valve opening, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0073] t_ft_target=m*tc_o+n*(tevap1+tevap2).

[0077] In some embodiments, in step S120, the specific process of determining the operating frequency control strategy of controlling the compressor of the air conditioner according to the size of the indoor dry-bulb temperature includes: judging the size of the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature; if the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature is less than the first temperature difference, then the operating frequency control strategy of controlling the compressor of the air conditioner is to control the operation of the compressor according to the result of calculating the operating frequency of the compressor according to the first formula in the PD feedback control; if the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature is greater than or equal to the first temperature difference, then the operating frequency control strategy of controlling the compressor of the air conditioner is to control the operation of the compressor according to the result of calculating the operating frequency of the compressor according to the fifth formula in the heat load and wet load control.
[0078] For the control of the compressor operating frequency, after the air conditioner is turned on, the compressor operating frequency is first controlled according to the first stage, and then whether to execute the second stage control is determined according to the size of the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin. The first stage is controlled according to the heat load and wet load, and the second stage is controlled according to the PD feedback. The second stage is a precise temperature and humidity control logic. The difference between the first stage and the second stage is whether the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin reaches the indoor set temperature T_set. The indoor set temperature T_set is set by the user. The first temperature difference is used to determine whether the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin is significantly different from the indoor set temperature T_set, and can be set to 1.5°C. When |Tin-T_set|<1.5°C, the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin is slightly different from the indoor set temperature T_set, and it is considered that the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin meets the threshold interval and meets the conditions for PD feedback control; when |Tin-T_set|≥1.5°C, the first stage control continues.

[0082] The fifth formula is:
[0083] F0=z1+a1*Qtot+b1*SHR+c1*Qtot 2 +d1*SHR 2 +e1*Qtot*SHR.

[0085] When the air conditioner stably controls temperature and humidity, the indoor heat load Qsen is equal to the sensible heat output by the air conditioner, and the indoor humidity load Qlat is equal to the latent heat output by the air conditioner. Therefore, the total cooling capacity of the air conditioner Qtot = sensible heat + latent heat = Qsen + Qlat. The calculation formula for heat load Qsen is:
[0086] Qsen=a3*(Tin-T_set)+b3*Tout+c3;
[0087] The calculation formula for wet load Qlat is:

[0091] The indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set can be calculated by the wet air state parameter theory based on the indoor set temperature T_set and the set relative humidity RH_set. The indoor dew point temperature Tdp can be calculated based on the indoor environment dry bulb temperature Tin, the indoor relative humidity RH, and the outdoor environment temperature Tout. After the air conditioner is turned on, the speed of the indoor fan is first controlled according to the first stage, and then the second stage of control is determined according to the size of the indoor dew point temperature Tdp. The first stage is controlled according to the heat load and the wet load, and the second stage is controlled according to the PD feedback. The second stage is a precise temperature and humidity control logic. The difference between the first stage and the second stage is whether the indoor dew point temperature Tdp reaches the indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set. The second temperature difference is used to determine whether the indoor dew point temperature Tdp is significantly different from the indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set, which can be set to 1°C. When |Tdp-Tdp_set|<1℃, the difference between the indoor dew point temperature Tdp and the indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set is small. It is considered that the indoor dew point temperature Tdp meets the threshold range and meets the conditions for PD feedback control; when |Tdp-Tdp_set|≥1℃, the first stage of control will continue.
[0092] The second formula is:
[0093] C(n+1)=C(n)+Kp2*ΔTdp+Ki2*δTdp.

[0095] The sixth formula is:
[0096] C0=z2+a2*Qtot+b2*SHR+c2*Qtot 2 +d2*SHR 2 +e2*Qtot*SHR.
[0097] In the formula, C0 is the rotation speed of the indoor fan; z2, a2, b2, c2, d2, and e2 are all coefficients; Qtot is the total cooling capacity of the air conditioner, Qtot=Qlat+Qsen; SHR is the sensible heat ratio; SHR=Qsen / Qtot; Qlat is the wet load; and Qsen is the heat load.
[0098] In some embodiments, in step S140, the specific process of determining the control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component and the opening of the second throttling component respectively according to the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger includes: judging the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat is less than the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component is to control the operation of the first branch throttling component according to the result of calculating the opening of the first branch throttling component according to the third formula in the PD feedback control; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat is greater than or equal to the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component is the fitting formula control strategy. And, determine the size of the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat is less than the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the second branch throttling component is the PD feedback control in which the result of calculating the opening of the second branch throttling component according to the fourth formula controls the operation of the second branch throttling component; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat is greater than or equal to the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the second branch throttling component is the fitting formula control strategy.
[0099] The third formula is:
[0100] B1(n+1)=B1(n)+Kp3*Δsh1+Ki3*δsh1.
[0101] The fourth formula is:
[0102] B2(n+1)=B2(n)+Kp4*Δsh2+Ki4*δsh2.

[0104] The fitting formula control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component and the opening of the second branch throttling component is the same; the fitting formula control strategy is to obtain the mass flow of the first branch throttling component and the second branch throttling component according to the seventh calculation formula, and obtain the opening of the first branch throttling component and the opening of the second branch throttling component according to the preset corresponding relationship between the mass flow and the opening; the seventh calculation formula is:
[0105] Mr=f(F, etav, tsuc_obj, tevap);
[0106] In the formula, Mr is the mass flow rate of the first branch throttling component and the second branch throttling component; F is the operating frequency of the compressor; ηv is the volumetric efficiency; if Mr is the mass flow rate of the first branch throttling component, tsuc_obj is the target suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger, and tevap is the evaporation temperature of the first indoor heat exchanger; if Mr is the mass flow rate of the second branch throttling component, tsuc_obj is the target suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger, and tevap is the evaporation temperature of the second indoor heat exchanger.
[0107] For the opening control of the first and second level electronic expansion valves and the second level electronic expansion valve, after the air conditioner is turned on, the opening is first controlled according to the first stage, and then the second stage control is determined according to the suction superheat of the indoor heat exchanger directly connected to the second level electronic expansion valve. The first stage is controlled according to the fitting formula, and the second stage is controlled according to the PD feedback. The second stage is a precise temperature and humidity control logic. The difference between the first and second stages is whether the suction superheat reaches the set suction superheat. The preset suction superheat difference Δsh is used to determine whether the suction superheat is significantly different from the set suction superheat. Taking the first and second level electronic expansion valves as an example, the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger is sh_obj1, and the corresponding set suction superheat is sh_1. When |sh_obj1-sh_1|<Δsh, the difference between the suction superheat and the set suction superheat is small. It is considered that the suction superheat meets the threshold range, and the first and second level electronic expansion valves meet the conditions for PD feedback control; when |sh_obj1-sh_1|≥Δsh, the first stage of control continues to be executed.

The calculated value empirical formula needs to obtain the characteristic parameters of the compressor, the pre-stored characteristic parameters of the electronic expansion valve, and the various state parameters of the system.

Specifically, the pipeline at the exhaust port 14 of the compressor 10 of the air conditioner passes through the outdoor heat exchanger 20 and the first-stage electronic expansion valve 31 in sequence and is connected to the flasher 40. The flasher 40 has two refrigerant outlets, one of which is connected to the third air intake port 13 of the compressor, and the other refrigerant outlet is connected to the compressor with a first branch and a second branch in parallel. On the first branch, along the direction from the flasher 40 to the compressor 10, the first-stage electronic expansion valve 32 and the first indoor heat exchanger 51 are arranged in sequence, and finally connected to the first air intake port 11 of the compressor. On the second branch, along the direction from the flasher 40 to the compressor 10, the second-stage electronic expansion valve 33 and the second indoor heat exchanger 52 are arranged in sequence, and finally connected to the second air intake port 12 of the compressor.
[0115] The first indoor heat exchanger and the second indoor heat exchanger are placed side by side in the same air duct, and have an upstream and downstream relationship. Figure 3 In the embodiment, the first indoor heat exchanger 51 is at an upstream position and the second indoor heat exchanger 52 is at a downstream position.

In the second stage, the operating parameters are calculated based on the PD feedback control, and the two indoor heat exchangers are coupled to process the sensible heat load and latent heat load, so as to achieve the purpose of accurately controlling temperature and humidity and maintaining the efficient operation of the air conditioning system. Among them, for the compressor, internal fan, and throttling component, the judgment conditions for choosing to execute the first stage or the second stage are different.
[0123] The first-stage electronic expansion valve and the second-stage electronic expansion valve are linked to each other. Specifically, the refrigerant mass flow rate of the first-stage electronic expansion valve is calculated based on the refrigerant mass flow rate of the first-stage electronic expansion valve and the second-stage electronic expansion valve, and is converted into an opening value based on the relationship between the mass flow rate and the opening degree.

Among them, the high-pressure circuit parameters include the condenser outlet temperature tc_o, and the low-pressure circuit parameters include the evaporation temperature tevap1 of the first indoor heat exchanger and the evaporation temperature tevap2 of the second indoor heat exchanger.
[0130] By determining the intermediate temperature target value of the opening of the first-stage electronic expansion valve according to the evaporation temperature of all indoor heat exchangers in the parallel air-conditioning system, and combining the mass flow rate of all second-stage electronic expansion valves, the opening of the first-stage electronic expansion valve is obtained, thereby improving the temperature and humidity control effect of the parallel air-conditioning system and enhancing the energy efficiency performance of the system.
[0131] In some embodiments, the PD feedback control strategy includes: controlling the operation of the compressor according to the result of calculating the operating frequency of the compressor according to the first formula, controlling the operation of the internal fan according to the result of calculating the speed of the internal fan according to the second formula, controlling the operation of the first branch throttling component according to the result of calculating the opening of the first branch throttling component according to the third formula, and controlling the operation of the second branch throttling component according to the result of calculating the opening of the second branch throttling component according to the fourth formula; the heat load and wet load control strategy includes: controlling the operation of the compressor according to the result of calculating the operating frequency of the compressor according to the fifth formula, and controlling the operation of the internal fan according to the result of calculating the speed of the internal fan according to the sixth formula.
[0132] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 determines the specific process of the operating frequency control strategy of controlling the compressor of the air conditioner according to the size of the indoor dry-bulb temperature, including: judging the size of the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature; if the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature is less than the first temperature difference, then the operating frequency control strategy of controlling the compressor of the air conditioner is to control the operation of the compressor according to the result of calculating the operating frequency of the compressor according to the first formula in the PD feedback control; if the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature is greater than or equal to the first temperature difference, then the operating frequency control strategy of controlling the compressor of the air conditioner is to control the operation of the compressor according to the result of calculating the operating frequency of the compressor according to the fifth formula in the heat load and wet load control.
[0133] For the control of the compressor operating frequency, after the air conditioner is turned on, the compressor operating frequency is first controlled according to the first stage, and then whether to execute the second stage control is determined according to the size of the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin. The first stage is controlled according to the heat load and wet load, and the second stage is controlled according to the PD feedback. The second stage is a precise temperature and humidity control logic. The difference between the first stage and the second stage is whether the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin reaches the indoor set temperature T_set. The indoor set temperature T_set is set by the user. The first temperature difference is used to determine whether the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin is significantly different from the indoor set temperature T_set, and can be set to 1.5°C. When |Tin-T_set|<1.5°C, the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin is slightly different from the indoor set temperature T_set, and it is considered that the indoor dry bulb temperature Tin meets the threshold interval and meets the conditions for PD feedback control; when |Tin-T_set|≥1.5°C, the first stage control continues.
[0134] The first formula is:
[0135] F(n+1)=F(n)+Kd*(Kp1*ΔTdr+Ki1*δTdr)+Kw*(Kp2*ΔTdp+Ki1*δTdp).
[0136] In the formula, F(n+1) and F(n) are the operating frequencies of the compressor, n is the cycle number; △Tdr is the difference between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature, that is, △Tdr=|Tin-T_set|; δTdr is the deviation rate between the indoor dry-bulb temperature and the indoor set temperature, that is, δTdr=△Tdr / T_set; △Tdp is the difference between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor target dew point temperature, that is, △Tdp=|Tdp-Tdp_set|; δTdp is the deviation rate between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor target dew point temperature, that is, δTdp=△Tdp / Tdp_set; Kd, Kp1, Ki1, and Kw are coefficients.
[0137] The fifth formula is:
[0138] F0=z1+a1*Qtot+b1*SHR+c1*Qtot 2 +d1*SHR 2 +e1*Qtot*SHR.

[0140] When the air conditioner stably controls temperature and humidity, the indoor heat load Qsen is equal to the sensible heat output by the air conditioner, and the indoor humidity load Qlat is equal to the latent heat output by the air conditioner. Therefore, the total cooling capacity of the air conditioner Qtot = sensible heat + latent heat = Qsen + Qlat. The calculation formula for heat load Qsen is:
[0141] Qsen=a3*(Tin-T_set)+b3*Tout+c3;
[0142] The calculation formula for wet load Qlat is:
[0143] Qlat=a4*(Tdp-Tdp_set)+b4*Tout+c4;
[0144] In the formula, a3, a4, b3, b4, c3, and c4 are coefficients determined by experiments; Tin is the indoor dry bulb temperature; Tin_set is the indoor set temperature; Tout is the outdoor ambient temperature; Tdp is the indoor dew point temperature; Tdp_set is the indoor set dew point temperature, which can be calculated by the wet air state parameter theory based on the indoor set temperature T_set and the set relative humidity RH_set. It should be noted that the method of calculating heat load and wet load is not limited to the above formula, and heat load and wet load can also be calculated based on other empirical formulas, experimental fitting formulas, big data and large model fitting formulas and other algorithms.
[0145] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 determines the specific process of the control strategy for controlling the rotational speed of the indoor fan according to the size of the indoor dew point temperature, including: judging the size of the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor set dew point temperature; if the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor set dew point temperature is less than the second temperature difference, then the control strategy for controlling the rotational speed of the indoor fan is to control the operation of the indoor fan by calculating the rotational speed of the indoor fan according to the second formula in the PD feedback control; if the absolute value of the difference between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor set dew point temperature is greater than or equal to the second temperature difference, then the control strategy for controlling the rotational speed of the indoor fan is to control the operation of the indoor fan by calculating the rotational speed of the indoor fan according to the sixth formula in the heat load and moisture load control.
[0146] The indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set can be calculated by the wet air state parameter theory based on the indoor set temperature T_set and the set relative humidity RH_set. The indoor dew point temperature Tdp can be calculated based on the indoor environment dry bulb temperature Tin, the indoor relative humidity RH, and the outdoor environment temperature Tout. After the air conditioner is turned on, the speed of the indoor fan is first controlled according to the first stage, and then the second stage of control is determined according to the size of the indoor dew point temperature Tdp. The first stage is controlled according to the heat load and the wet load, and the second stage is controlled according to the PD feedback. The second stage is a precise temperature and humidity control logic. The difference between the first stage and the second stage is whether the indoor dew point temperature Tdp reaches the indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set. The second temperature difference is used to determine whether the indoor dew point temperature Tdp is significantly different from the indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set, which can be set to 1°C. When |Tdp-Tdp_set|<1℃, the difference between the indoor dew point temperature Tdp and the indoor set dew point temperature Tdp_set is small. It is considered that the indoor dew point temperature Tdp meets the threshold range and meets the conditions for PD feedback control; when |Tdp-Tdp_set|≥1℃, the first stage of control will continue.
[0147] The second formula is:
[0148] C(n+1)=C(n)+Kp2*ΔTdp+Ki2*δTdp.
[0149] In the formula, C(n+1) and C(n) are the speeds of the indoor fans, n is the cycle number; △Tdp is the difference between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor target dew point temperature; δTdp is the deviation rate between the indoor dew point temperature and the indoor target dew point temperature; Kp2 and Ki2 are coefficients.
[0150] The sixth formula is:
[0151] C0=z2+a2*Qtot+b2*SHR+c2*Qtot 2 +d2*SHR 2 +e2*Qtot*SHR.
[0152] In the formula, C0 is the rotation speed of the indoor fan; z2, a2, b2, c2, d2, and e2 are all coefficients; Qtot is the total cooling capacity of the air conditioner, Qtot=Qlat+Qsen; SHR is the sensible heat ratio; SHR=Qsen / Qtot; Qlat is the wet load; and Qsen is the heat load.
[0153] In some embodiments, the control unit 104 determines the specific process of the control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component and the opening of the second throttling component according to the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger, respectively, including: judging the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat is less than the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component is to control the operation of the first branch throttling component according to the result of calculating the opening of the first branch throttling component according to the third formula in the PD feedback control; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat is greater than or equal to the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component is the fitting formula control strategy. And, determine the size of the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat is less than the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the second branch throttling component is the PD feedback control in which the result of calculating the opening of the second branch throttling component according to the fourth formula controls the operation of the second branch throttling component; if the absolute value of the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat is greater than or equal to the preset suction superheat difference, then the control strategy for controlling the opening of the second branch throttling component is the fitting formula control strategy.
[0154] The third formula is:
[0155] B1(n+1)=B1(n)+Kp3*Δsh1+Ki3*δsh1.
[0156] The fourth formula is:
[0157] B2(n+1)=B2(n)+Kp4*Δsh2+Ki4*δsh2.
[0158] In the formula, B1(n) and B1(n+1) are the openings of the first branch throttling component, B2(n) and B2(n+1) are the openings of the second branch throttling component, and n is the cycle number; △sh1 is the difference between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat, that is, △sh1=|sh_obj1-sh_1|; δsh1 is the deviation rate between the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger and the first set suction superheat, that is, δsh1=△sh1 / sh_1; △sh2 is the difference between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat, that is, △sh1=|sh_obj2-sh_2|; δsh2 is the deviation rate between the suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger and the second set suction superheat, that is, δsh2=△sh2 / sh_2; Kp3, Ki3, Kp4, and Ki4 are all coefficients.
[0159] The fitting formula control strategy for controlling the opening of the first branch throttling component and the opening of the second branch throttling component is the same; the fitting formula control strategy is to obtain the mass flow of the first branch throttling component and the second branch throttling component according to the seventh calculation formula, and obtain the opening of the first branch throttling component and the opening of the second branch throttling component according to the preset corresponding relationship between the mass flow and the opening; the seventh calculation formula is:
[0160] Mr=f(F, etav, tsuc_obj, tevap);
[0161] In the formula, Mr is the mass flow rate of the first branch throttling component and the second branch throttling component; F is the operating frequency of the compressor; ηv is the volumetric efficiency; if Mr is the mass flow rate of the first branch throttling component, tsuc_obj is the target suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger, and tevap is the evaporation temperature of the first indoor heat exchanger; if Mr is the mass flow rate of the second branch throttling component, tsuc_obj is the target suction superheat of the second indoor heat exchanger, and tevap is the evaporation temperature of the second indoor heat exchanger.
[0162] For the opening control of the first and second level electronic expansion valves and the second level electronic expansion valve, after the air conditioner is turned on, the opening is first controlled according to the first stage, and then the second stage control is determined according to the suction superheat of the indoor heat exchanger directly connected to the second level electronic expansion valve. The first stage is controlled according to the fitting formula, and the second stage is controlled according to the PD feedback. The second stage is a precise temperature and humidity control logic. The difference between the first and second stages is whether the suction superheat reaches the set suction superheat. The preset suction superheat difference Δsh is used to determine whether the suction superheat is significantly different from the set suction superheat. Taking the first and second level electronic expansion valves as an example, the suction superheat of the first indoor heat exchanger is sh_obj1, and the corresponding set suction superheat is sh_1. When |sh_obj1-sh_1|<Δsh, the difference between the suction superheat and the set suction superheat is small. It is considered that the suction superheat meets the threshold range, and the first and second level electronic expansion valves meet the conditions for PD feedback control; when |sh_obj1-sh_1|≥Δsh, the first stage of control continues to be executed.

[0165] Step 2: Perform PD control feedback to adjust the air conditioning operating parameters to stabilize temperature and humidity control according to the set values and current values of the indoor dry-bulb temperature and indoor dew point temperature.
[0166] Step 3: The opening of the first-stage throttling electronic expansion valve is controlled by the intermediate target temperature, which is calculated by an empirical formula. The empirical formula needs to obtain the characteristic parameters of the high-pressure circuit and the low-pressure circuit of the system; the opening of the second-stage throttling electronic expansion valve includes two parts: the calculated value and the feedback control. The calculated value empirical formula needs to obtain the characteristic parameters of the compressor, the pre-stored characteristic parameters of the electronic expansion valve, and the various state parameters of the system. The feedback control is realized by the preset suction target superheat.
