Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy consumption control of central air conditioners, and in particular to a control method based on energy consumption scoring of central air conditioners of the Internet of Things. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development and progress of science and technology, intelligent buildings have gradually become a new development trend, and central air-conditioning systems are no exception. However, traditional central air-conditioning systems consume relatively more electricity, and the number of control points often accounts for a large proportion of the total number of automated control points in the entire building. Therefore, we need to master a large amount of statistical data and carry out a comprehensive upgrade of the central air-conditioning system in terms of energy saving.

[0003] At present, there are many ways to realize the automation of central air-conditioning systems. While central air-conditioning systems bring comfortable environments to enterprises and business groups, they also have problems such as high costs and high energy consumption. In the existing technology, central air-conditioning often sets common temperatures or manually adjusts temperatures and unit parameters, while ignoring the relationship between the human body's optimal temperature and the changing relationship between indoor and outdoor temperatures, and thus cannot effectively provide comfortable indoor temperatures for the surrounding people at the lowest energy consumption.

[0004] In order to solve the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a comprehensive and systematic method for energy saving and consumption analysis of central air conditioners based on the Internet of Things, which is used for comprehensive monitoring and analysis of the energy consumption of central air conditioners, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing energy consumption on the basis of suitable temperature. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a control method for central air-conditioning energy consumption scoring based on the Internet of Things. The ultimate goal is to enable the central air-conditioning system to operate and manage safely with lower energy consumption while meeting the optimal temperature for the human body.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for determining the energy consumption score of a central air conditioner based on the Internet of Things for evaluating the current score level of the central air conditioner, thereby selecting whether to intelligently adjust the parameters and temperature of the central air conditioner.

[0007] The specific methods include: The data acquisition module collects, extracts and records data, collects the indoor temperature of a target area through an indoor temperature sensor, and collects the outdoor temperature of a target area through an outdoor temperature sensor; Calculate the optimal comfort temperature for users at a certain moment: ; C t1 is the outdoor temperature at a certain moment; C t2 Set the indoor temperature for a certain moment; K is the correction coefficient related to the number of people per unit area; X1 is the actual number of people per unit area; X2 is the standard number of people per unit area; Y is the actual area; R is the population density assessment index per unit area; The data acquisition module collects and extracts recorded data to obtain the water supply temperature and return water temperature of the IoT central air conditioner; obtains the inlet / outlet water temperature of the condenser and evaporator of the chiller at this moment, obtains the chilled water flow of the condenser, obtains the fixed bearing pressure value and fouling coefficient of the water channel standard; calculates the unit time efficiency coefficient formula based on the supply data, and determines the energy-saving scoring standard of the central air conditioner based on the calculation results; Refrigeration efficiency coefficient per unit time: μ= ; Or the heating efficiency coefficient per unit time: μ= ; in: C t适 The optimal comfort temperature for the user at a certain moment as mentioned above; C 蒸1 is the water inlet temperature of the chiller evaporator; C 冷2 is the outlet water temperature of the chiller condenser; S 水 is the chilled water flow rate of the middle condenser; C 供 Supply water temperature for central air conditioning; C 回 is the return water temperature of the central air conditioner; n is the fixed bearing pressure value of the chiller water circuit standard; Q 冷 is the cooling capacity of the central air-conditioning system per unit time; W 冷 is the power consumed by the central air conditioner per unit time; P is the fouling coefficient of the chiller; Q 热 is the nominal heating capacity per unit time; W 热 is the power consumed by the central air conditioner per unit time; By calculating the time efficiency coefficient and the statistics and analysis of the time taken to reach the user's optimal comfortable temperature, a complete set of scoring criteria is obtained; the specific scoring criteria are shown in the chart: .

[0008] According to the above scoring criteria, the traceability result of the central air-conditioning system includes one of the following: strong security, weak security, strong anomaly, weak anomaly, and sampling anomaly.

[0009] After completing the calculation and analysis of the central air-conditioning energy consumption score, the IoT central air-conditioning system will immediately reflect the score to the backend management system, and provide users with different reminders and alarm measures based on different scores.

[0010] The intelligent management and control module divides different management and control modes according to different scores, including environmental protection mode, performance mode, default mode, holiday mode, headwind mode, maintenance mode, terminal control mode and other modes. Each mode corresponds to different configuration parameters, thereby managing the IoT central air-conditioning system more intuitively and accurately.

[0011] If the score is strong security, the IoT central air conditioner will run steadily according to the current parameters; If the score is in the weak security and weak abnormality range, the IoT central air-conditioning system will automatically push abnormality and weak security warnings, and automatically adjust the operating parameters in real time to reach the strong security range. At the same time, it will prompt the user that the parameters required for strong security have been adjusted.

[0012] If the score is in a strong abnormality, a strong abnormality warning will be pushed, and the current parameters of the strong abnormality will be stopped immediately and switched to the user's common mode.

[0013] The main configuration parameters of its intelligent management and control module are: outdoor ambient temperature, host return water temperature, fan coil mode, wind speed, set temperature, polling time interval and maximum polling number. Beneficial Effects

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical innovations: 1. Obtain energy consumption scores through calculation and analysis, and provide accurate safety scores and warning prompts for IoT central air-conditioning systems; 2. The intelligent management and control module automatically adjusts the operating parameters in real time according to the energy consumption score, fully considering the user's optimal body temperature while selecting the lowest energy consumption and fastest time to reach the required temperature.
