[0033] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings, which are exemplary embodiments of the present application. Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below.

[0034] In the present application, an air conditioner performs a refrigeration cycle of the air conditioner by using a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator. The refrigeration cycle includes a series of processes involving compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation, and supplies refrigerant to air that has been adjusted and heat-exchanged.

[0035] The compressor compresses refrigerant gas in a high-temperature and high-pressure state and discharges the compressed refrigerant gas. The discharged refrigerant gas flows into the condenser. The condenser condenses the compressed refrigerant into a liquid phase, and heat is released to the surrounding environment through the condensation process.

[0036] The expansion valve expands the high-temperature and high-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant condensed in the condenser into low-temperature and low-pressure liquid-phase refrigerant. The evaporator evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion valve and returns the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state to the compressor. The evaporator can achieve a refrigeration effect by exchanging heat with a material to be cooled using latent heat of evaporation of the refrigerant. Throughout the cycle, the air conditioner can adjust the temperature of an indoor space.

[0037] The outdoor unit of the air conditioner refers to a portion of the refrigeration cycle including the compressor and the outdoor heat exchanger, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes the indoor heat exchanger, and the expansion valve can be provided in the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.

[0038] The indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger serve as a condenser or an evaporator. When the indoor heat exchanger serves as a condenser, the air conditioner serves as a heater in a heating mode, and when the indoor heat exchanger serves as an evaporator, the air conditioner serves as a cooler in a cooling mode.

[0039] Currently, the air conditioner obtains air conditioner off-design parameters according to engineering test experience to determine actual sensible capacity values and actual latent capacity values of the air conditioner in different operating modes, and presets the air conditioner off-design parameters and corresponding sensible capacity values and latent capacity values to the controller, which occupies a large storage space of the air conditioner and affects subsequent product function upgrade.

[0040] Therefore, the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present application takes the rated operating parameters of the rated operating condition as a standard, and when the air conditioner is running, the capacity of the air conditioner is calculated in real time according to the temperature difference between the actual indoor dry-bulb temperature, the indoor wet-bulb temperature, and the outdoor dry-bulb temperature and the rated operating parameters and a preset calculation formula.

[0041] The following refers to Figures 1-5 The air conditioner 1 according to the embodiment of the present application is described.

[0042] As Figure 1 shown, the air conditioner 1 according to the embodiment of the present application includes a compressor 11, an indoor unit 12, an indoor dry-bulb temperature sensor 13, an indoor wet-bulb temperature sensor 14, an outdoor dry-bulb temperature sensor 15, an outdoor wet-bulb temperature sensor 16, and a controller 17, wherein,

[0044] In an embodiment, after the air conditioner 1 is started, the operating parameters of the air conditioner 1 in the running state are acquired in real time, including acquiring the operating mode of the air conditioner 1, for example, the operating mode includes a heating mode and a cooling mode, etc.; the indoor dry-bulb temperature is acquired by the indoor dry-bulb temperature sensor 13, for example, denoted as TID; the indoor wet-bulb temperature is acquired by the indoor wet-bulb temperature sensor 14, for example, denoted as TIW; and the outdoor dry-bulb temperature is acquired by the outdoor dry-bulb temperature sensor 15, for example, denoted as TOD.

[0045] The rated outdoor dry-bulb temperature in the rated cooling operating mode is acquired, for example, denoted as TO1; the rated indoor dry-bulb temperature is acquired, for example, denoted as TI1; and the rated indoor wet-bulb temperature is acquired, for example, denoted as TI2; the rated outdoor dry-bulb in the rated heating operating mode is acquired, for example, denoted as TO2; and the rated indoor dry-bulb temperature is acquired, for example, denoted as TI3; for example, the rated outdoor dry-bulb temperature TO1 of the rated cooling operating mode is 35℃, the rated indoor dry-bulb temperature TI1 is 27℃, and the rated indoor wet-bulb temperature TI2 is 19℃; the rated outdoor dry-bulb TO2 of the rated heating operating mode is 7℃, and the rated indoor dry-bulb temperature TI3 is 20℃.

[0046] The rated sensible heat capacity value is acquired, for example, denoted as Qsc; when the air conditioner 1 is in different operating modes, the corresponding rated sensible heat capacity value Qsc is different; for example, when the operating mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the cooling mode, the rated sensible heat capacity value Qsc includes a rated cooling sensible heat capacity value; when the operating mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the heating mode, the rated sensible heat capacity value Qsc includes a rated heating sensible heat capacity value; since the operating mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the cooling mode, there is a change in the wet air heat, so the rated latent heat capacity value is acquired, for example, denoted as Qlc.

[0047] The temperature difference coefficient is obtained, that is, the temperature difference between the current temperature and the rated temperature. When the air conditioner 1 is in different operation modes, the corresponding temperature difference coefficients are different. For example, when the operation mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the cooling mode, the temperature difference coefficients include the indoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient, denoted as Ac, the indoor wet-bulb temperature difference coefficient, denoted as Bc, and the outdoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient, denoted as Cc. When the operation mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the heating mode, the temperature difference coefficients include the indoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient, denoted as Ah, and the outdoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient, denoted as Ch.

[0048] After the above operation parameters are obtained, the preset calculation formula is used to determine the corresponding capacity of the air conditioner 1 in different operation modes in combination with the above operation parameters. For example, when the operation mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the cooling mode, the preset calculation formula is used to determine the cooling capacity of the air conditioner 1 in combination with the above operation parameters. When the operation mode of the air conditioner 1 is in the heating mode, the preset calculation formula is used to determine the heating capacity of the air conditioner 1 in combination with the above operation parameters.

[0049] According to the air conditioner 1 of the embodiment of the present application, after starting operation, the operation parameters of the air conditioner 1 in the running state are obtained in real time, including the operation mode, the rated outdoor dry-bulb temperature, the rated indoor dry-bulb temperature, the rated indoor wet-bulb temperature, the indoor dry-bulb temperature, the indoor wet-bulb temperature, the outdoor dry-bulb temperature, the rated sensible heat capacity value, the rated latent heat capacity value, and the temperature difference coefficient. The preset calculation formula is used to calculate the real-time capacity of the air conditioner 1 in different operation modes, that is, to calculate the cooling capacity or the heating capacity of the air conditioner 1 in real time. By using the preset calculation formula to calculate the real-time capacity of the air conditioner 1, it is not necessary to calculate the capacity of the air conditioner 1 according to the enthalpy difference method, so that the capacity calculation of the air conditioner 1 is more convenient and accurate, and it is not necessary to realize the capacity detection of the air conditioner 1 by increasing additional devices, so that the hardware occupying space of the air conditioner 1 is reduced, and the hardware cost is reduced.

[0050] In some embodiments, the temperature difference coefficient includes the indoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient, the indoor wet-bulb temperature difference coefficient, and the outdoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient; the rated sensible heat capacity value includes the rated cooling sensible heat capacity value; and the rated latent heat capacity value includes the rated cooling latent heat capacity value.

[0051] In an embodiment, such as Figure 2 The diagram shown is a flowchart of a method for calculating the cooling capacity of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. After air conditioner 1 is turned on, it is determined whether air conditioner 1 is in cooling mode. When it is determined that air conditioner 1 is in cooling mode, since there are changes in the heat of the humid air in cooling mode, the rated latent heat capacity value Qsc is obtained. Based on the rated indoor dry-bulb temperature TI1, indoor dry-bulb temperature TID, indoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient Ac, and the rated sensible heat capacity value Qsc, the actual sensible heat capacity value is determined, i.e., [1-(TI1-TID)×Ac]×Qsc.

[0053] In an embodiment, such as Figure 3 The diagram shows a flowchart of a method for calculating the cooling capacity of an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention. After determining the actual sensible heat capacity value (i.e., [1-(TI1-TID)×Ac]×Qsc) and the actual latent heat capacity value (i.e., [1-(TI2-TIW)×Bc]×Qlc), the sum of the actual sensible heat capacity value and the actual latent heat capacity value is calculated, i.e., [1-(TI1-TID)×Ac]×Qsc + [1-(TI2-TIW)×Bc]×Qlc. This sum, along with the rated outdoor dry-bulb temperature TO1, the outdoor dry-bulb temperature TOD, and the outdoor dry-bulb temperature difference coefficient Cc, is substituted into a preset calculation formula to determine the cooling capacity of air conditioner 1, for example, denoted as Q. 制冷量 This makes the cooling capacity Q of air conditioner 1 制冷量 The calculation results are more accurate and well-suited.
