[0002] Traditional air conditioners have a single air outlet form, and the air outlet form is the same when cooling / heating, and the direction of the airflow is changed only by adjusting the sweeping or air guide blades. However, due to the natural characteristics of air, hot air has a relatively small density and tends to float up, while cold air has a large density and tends to sink. Therefore, traditional air conditioners always have comfort problems during operation, such as the head is hot and the feet are cold when heating, and the cold air blows directly to the user when cooling.
[0003] The existing solution solves the above technical problems by setting up a cabinet air conditioner with upper and lower air outlets. In the existing cabinet air conditioner with upper and lower air outlets, a dual centrifugal fan combination is used to achieve three air outlet modes of upper air outlet, lower air outlet and upper and lower air outlet with large air volume. Users can set the air outlet state according to their needs to avoid the problem of direct cold air blowing and hot head and cold feet. However, there is a lack of reasonable control methods to achieve real-time automatic control of the best air outlet mode at all times.
[0004] That is, the existing solution has a single air outlet control method for the upper and lower air outlet cabinets and lacks a reasonable control method, and cannot achieve real-time automatic control of the optimal air outlet mode at all times, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the invention

[0040] As introduced in the background technology, the existing solution solves the above technical problems by setting up a cabinet air conditioner with upper and lower air outlets. In the existing cabinet air conditioner with upper and lower air outlets, a dual centrifugal fan combination is used to achieve three air outlet modes of upper air outlet, lower air outlet, and upper and lower air outlet with large air volume. Users can set the air outlet state according to their needs to avoid the problems of cold air blowing directly and hot head and cold feet. However, there is a lack of reasonable control method to achieve real-time automatic control of the best air outlet mode at all times. In order to solve the problem that the existing solution has a single air outlet control method for the upper and lower air outlet cabinets and lacks a reasonable control method, and cannot achieve real-time automatic control of the best air outlet mode at all times, resulting in a poor user experience, the embodiments of the present application provide a control method, device, medium and system for an air conditioner.
[0041] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0042] In this embodiment, a method for controlling an air conditioner is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.
[0043] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:
[0044] Step S101, obtaining the inner loop temperature and set temperature of the air conditioner at the current moment, and obtaining the current inner loop temperature and the target set temperature;
[0045] Step S102, determining the current operation stage of the air conditioner according to the current inner ring temperature and the target setting temperature, wherein the current operation stage is one of the following: a steady-state stage, a transition stage, and a dynamic stage, wherein the steady-state stage indicates that the air blown by the air conditioner is not required to blow directly toward the area where the human body is located, the dynamic stage indicates that the air blown by the air conditioner is required to blow directly toward the area where the human body is located, and the transition stage is a stage of switching between the steady-state stage and the dynamic stage;
[0046] Step S102, i.e. determining the current operation stage of the air conditioner according to the current inner ring temperature and the target setting temperature, comprises:
[0047] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode and the difference between the current inner ring temperature and the target setting temperature is within a first preset temperature range, determining that the current operation stage of the air conditioner is the transition stage;
[0048] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode and the difference between the current inner ring temperature and the target setting temperature is less than the minimum value of the first preset temperature range, determining that the current operation stage of the air conditioner is the steady state stage;
[0049] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode and the difference between the current inner ring temperature and the target setting temperature is greater than the maximum value of the first preset temperature range, determining that the current operation stage of the air conditioner is the dynamic stage;
[0050] Specifically, when the operating mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode, Figure 2 As shown, by detecting the current inner ring temperature T 内环 and the target set temperature T 设定 , when T is satisfied 内环-T 设定 < ΔT1, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature has basically reached the user-set temperature. This stage is the steady-state stage. The current inner ring temperature can be maintained. At the same time, people need to be prevented from being blown by cold wind. When ΔT1≤T 内环 -T 设定 ≤ΔT2, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature is close to the user-set temperature. This stage is a transition stage, with both cooling requirements and the need for cold air not to blow on people. When T is met 内环 -T 设定 >ΔT2, indicating that the current inner ring temperature is too high compared to the user-set temperature. This stage is a dynamic stage and requires rapid cooling. ΔT1 is the minimum value of the first preset temperature range, and ΔT2 is the maximum value of the first preset temperature range.
[0051] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode and the difference between the target setting temperature and the current inner ring temperature is within a second preset temperature range, determining that the current operation stage of the air conditioner is the transition stage;
[0052] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode and the difference between the target setting temperature and the current inner ring temperature is less than the minimum value of the second preset temperature range, determining that the current operation stage of the air conditioner is the steady state stage;
[0053] In the steady-state stage: the main purpose is to deliver hot air to the feet and prevent the hot air from blowing on people's faces, so the downward air outlet is adopted, and air is only delivered from the downward air outlet. The hot air covers the bottom of the room, and the hot air naturally floats to the upper part of the room, so that the hot air does not blow on people's faces and the current inner ring temperature can be maintained.
[0054] When the operating mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode and the difference between the target setting temperature and the current inner ring temperature is greater than the maximum value of the second preset temperature range, the current operating stage of the air conditioner is determined to be the dynamic stage.
[0055] In the dynamic stage: the main purpose is to achieve rapid heating, so the upper and lower air outlets are used. The upper and lower air outlets supply air together, and the hot air covers a large area, achieving rapid heating of a large space; at the same time, controlling the upper air outlet to sweep the air downward can make the hot air effectively stimulate the human head, and the lower air outlet can effectively stimulate the human calves, making the human body feel comfortable quickly.
[0056] When T is met 设定 -T 内环 < ΔT3, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature has basically reached the user-set temperature. This stage is the steady-state stage. The current inner ring temperature can be maintained. At the same time, it is necessary to prevent hot air from blowing on the face. When ΔT3≤T 设定 -T 内环≤ΔT4, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature is close to the user-set temperature. This stage is a transition stage, with both heating requirements and the need for hot air not to blow on the face. When T is met 设定 -T 内环 >ΔT4, indicating that the current inner ring temperature is too low compared to the user-set temperature. This stage is a dynamic stage and requires rapid temperature rise;
[0057] A dynamic environment is a stage in which the inner loop temperature is significantly different from the air conditioner set temperature, that is, the lower or higher inner loop temperature is adjusted to a more comfortable indoor temperature through the air conditioner; a steady-state environment is a stage in which the inner loop temperature has reached a more comfortable indoor temperature and is maintained near this temperature range.
[0058] Specifically, when T 设定 -T 内环 < ΔT3, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature has basically reached the user-set temperature. This stage is the steady-state stage. The current inner ring temperature can be maintained. At the same time, it is necessary to prevent hot air from blowing on the face. When ΔT3≤T 设定 -T 内环 ≤ΔT4, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature is close to the user-set temperature. This stage is a transition stage, with both heating requirements and the need for hot air not to blow on the face. When T is met 设定 -T 内环 When ΔT3 is greater than ΔT4, it indicates that the current inner ring temperature is too low compared to the user-set temperature. This stage is a dynamic stage and requires rapid temperature rise. ΔT3 and ΔT4 are the minimum and maximum values of the second preset temperature range, respectively.
[0059] Step S103, adjusting the air outlet mode, upper fan speed and lower fan speed of the air conditioner at least according to the current operation stage.
[0060] In the above steps, the current operation stage of the air conditioner is determined according to the current inner ring temperature and the target set temperature, and the air outlet mode, upper fan speed and lower fan speed of the air conditioner are adjusted at least according to the current operation stage, so that the present application has a comfortable air supply control scheme for human thermal stimulation needs at different ambient temperatures, and achieves the purpose of automatic control of the optimal air outlet mode in real time at all times. The air outlet control of the upper and lower air outlet cabinets in the present application is no longer single, which improves the user experience, thereby solving the problem that the existing scheme cannot achieve real-time automatic control of the optimal air outlet mode at all times due to the single air outlet control method of the upper and lower air outlet cabinets and the lack of a reasonable control method, resulting in poor user experience.
[0061] There are two implementation methods. The first implementation method is to adjust the air outlet mode, upper fan speed and lower fan speed of the air conditioner only according to the current operation stage. The specific adjustment method is the same as the adjustment of the cooling mode, which will not be repeated here.
[0062] The second implementation method is to adjust the air outlet mode, upper fan speed and lower fan speed of the air conditioner according to the operation mode and the current operation stage;
[0063] Specifically, when the operation mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode and the current operation stage is the dynamic stage, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to the upper and lower air outlets, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first cooling speed, and the upper air outlet of the air conditioner is controlled to sweep air downward;
[0064] In the dynamic stage: the main purpose is to achieve rapid cooling, so the upper and lower air outlets are used. The upper and lower air outlets supply air together, and the cold air covers a large area, achieving rapid cooling of a large space; at the same time, controlling the upper air outlet to sweep the air downward can make the cold air effectively stimulate the human head, and the lower air outlet can effectively stimulate the human calves, making the human body feel comfortable quickly.
[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to upward and downward air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to S-C1, and the upper air outlet of the air conditioner is controlled to sweep air downward.
[0066] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode and the current operation stage is the steady state stage, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to upper air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first cooling speed, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air upward;
[0067] In the steady-state stage: the main purpose is to prevent the cold wind from blowing on people, so the upper air outlet is adopted, and air is only supplied from the upper air outlet. The cold air covers the top of the room, and the cold air sinks to the lower part of the room in a shower-like manner, so that the cold wind does not blow on people and the current inner ring temperature can be maintained; the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep the air upward, and the cold air is sent to the top of the room to prevent the cold air from the upper air outlet from blowing on the human head.
[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to upper air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to S-C1, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air upward.
[0069] When the operating mode of the air conditioner is the cooling mode and the current operating stage is the transition stage, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to up and down air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first cooling speed, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air downward.
[0070] like Figure 5 As shown, the air outlet mode is controlled to be up and down; the upper fan speed is controlled S上 is S-C1; the fan speed under control is S 下 S-C1; control the upper air outlet to sweep air downward; before confirming the switch of the air outlet in the transition stage, it needs to run for at least 1 minute to detect T 内环 ; Calculate the preset value ɑ of the indoor environment cooling rate, so use the up and down air outlet method before calculating the cooling rate ɑ.
[0071] Specifically, in the cooling mode, in the dynamic stage, it can effectively stimulate the required stimulation positions of the human body, make the human body feel comfortable quickly, and quickly cool down the room; in the transition stage, by identifying the environmental state and system parameters, the thermal comfort needs of the current stage are determined, and rapid cooling or cold wind is not blown on people is achieved; in the steady-state stage, the cold air covers the top of the room, and the cold air sinks to the lower part of the room in a shower-like manner, so that the cold wind does not blow on people and the current inner ring temperature can be maintained.
[0072] Obtaining a first inner ring temperature difference value is a difference between the inner ring temperature at a previous moment and the current inner ring temperature, wherein the inner ring temperature at a previous moment is the inner ring temperature of the air conditioner at a previous moment;
[0073] When the first inner ring temperature difference is greater than or equal to the preset value of the indoor environment cooling rate, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to upper air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first cooling speed, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air upward;
[0074] When the first inner ring temperature difference is smaller than the preset value of the indoor environment cooling rate, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to up and down air outlet, and the lower fan speed is adjusted to the second cooling speed, and the upper fan speed is adjusted to the third cooling speed, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air upward, the second cooling speed is smaller than the first cooling speed, and the third cooling speed is larger than the first cooling speed.
[0075] like Figure 5 As shown, when T 内环(i-1) -T 内环i ≥α, the air outlet mode is controlled to be upper air outlet; the upper fan speed is controlled to be S 上 is S-C1; the fan speed under control is S 下 S-C1; controls the upper air outlet to sweep air upward;
[0076] When T is not satisfied 内环(i-1) -T 内环i ≥α, the air outlet mode is controlled to be up and down; the upper fan speed is controlled to be S 上 S-C3; control the fan speed S 下 S-C2: controls the upper air outlet to sweep air upward.
[0077] In the transition phase: When T 内环(i-1) -T 内环i ≥α, it indicates that the current indoor cooling rate is fast and the air conditioning cooling effect is good. Adjusting it to the upper outlet has little effect on the indoor cooling effect and can prevent the cold wind from blowing on people. Control the upper outlet to sweep the wind upward and send the cold air to the top of the room to prevent the cold air from the upper outlet from blowing on the human head. 内环(i-1) -T 内环i When ≥α, it indicates that the current indoor cooling rate is slow and the air conditioning cooling effect is limited. To ensure the temperature reduction effect, it is necessary to maintain the up and down air outlet mode. At the same time, because it is in the transition stage, the indoor temperature has dropped to a certain extent. High-speed cold wind blowing people will make people feel uncomfortable. Therefore, the speed of the down fan is reduced to reduce the wind speed at the downwind outlet, and the discomfort caused by the cold wind blowing on the calves is alleviated. At the same time, to ensure the temperature reduction effect, the speed of the up fan is increased, the cooling output of the upwind outlet is increased, and rapid cooling is achieved. The upper air outlet is controlled to sweep the wind upward, and the cold air from the upper air outlet is sent to the top of the room to prevent the cold air from the upper air outlet from blowing on the human head.
[0078] In one embodiment of the present application, in the process of adjusting the air outlet mode, the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed of the air conditioner at least according to the current operation stage, the method further includes:
[0079] Acquire a cooling rate mapping relationship, wherein the cooling rate mapping relationship represents a mapping relationship between a preset value of the indoor environment cooling rate and a model of the air conditioner;
[0080] The above-mentioned indoor environment cooling rate preset value corresponding to the current air conditioner model is determined in the above-mentioned cooling rate mapping relationship.
[0081] Specifically, by setting a mapping relationship between the preset value of the indoor environment cooling rate and the model of the above-mentioned air conditioner, it is convenient to subsequently determine the preset value of the indoor environment cooling rate corresponding to the current air conditioner model from the mapping relationship through the current air conditioner model, thereby improving the accuracy of the value of α. The same is true for β and it is not repeated here.
[0082] Conditions in heating mode:
[0083] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode and the current operation stage is the dynamic stage, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to upper and lower air outlets, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first heating speed, and the upper air outlet of the air conditioner is controlled to sweep air downward;
[0084] When the operation mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode and the current operation stage is the steady state stage, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to upper air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first heating speed;
[0085] When the operating mode of the air conditioner is the heating mode and the current operating stage is the transition stage, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to up and down air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first heating speed, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air downward.
[0086] In the transition stage of heating mode: control the air outlet mode to up and down air outlet; control the upper fan speed S 上 is S-H1; the fan speed under control is S 下 S-H1; control the upper air outlet to sweep air downward. Before confirming the switch of the air outlet in the transition stage, it needs to run for at least 1 minute to detect T 内环 ; Calculate the preset value β of the indoor environment heating rate, so the up and down air outlet method is used before calculating the heating rate β;
[0087] In one embodiment of the present application, in the process of adjusting the air outlet mode, the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed of the air conditioner at least according to the current operation stage, the method further includes:
[0088] The second inner ring temperature difference is obtained as the difference between the current inner ring temperature and the inner ring temperature at the previous moment, where the inner ring temperature at the previous moment is the inner ring temperature of the air conditioner at the previous moment;
[0089] When the second inner ring temperature difference is greater than or equal to the preset value of the indoor environment temperature rise rate, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to downward air outlet, and the upper fan speed and the lower fan speed are both adjusted to the first heating speed;
[0090] When the second inner ring temperature difference is smaller than the preset value of the indoor environment heating rate, the air outlet mode of the air conditioner is adjusted to up and down air outlet, and the upper fan speed is adjusted to the second heating speed, and the lower fan speed is adjusted to the third heating speed, and the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep air upward, the second heating speed is smaller than the first heating speed, and the third heating speed is larger than the first heating speed.
[0091] When T is met 内环i -T 内环 ( i-1) ≥β, the air outlet mode is controlled to be downward air outlet; the upper fan speed is controlled to be S 上 is S-H1; the fan speed under control is S 下 For S-H1;
[0092] When T is not satisfied 内环i -T 内环 ( i-1)≥β, the air outlet mode is controlled to be up and down; the upper fan speed is controlled to be S 上 is S-H2; the fan speed under control is S 下 For S-H3; control the upper air outlet to sweep air upward;
[0093] Specifically, T 内环i is the current inner ring temperature mentioned above, T 内环 ( i-1) is the difference of the inner ring temperature at the previous moment. When T 内环i -T 内环 ( i-1) ≥β, it indicates that the current indoor temperature rise rate is fast and the air conditioning heating effect is good. Adjusting it to the bottom outlet has little effect on the indoor heating effect and can prevent hot air from blowing on the face. 内环i -T 内环 ( i-1) When ≥β, it indicates that the current indoor temperature rise rate is slow and the air conditioning heating effect is limited. To ensure the temperature rise effect, it is necessary to maintain the up and down air outlet mode. At the same time, because it is in the transition stage, the indoor temperature has risen to a certain extent. High-speed hot air blowing on the face will make people feel uncomfortable. Therefore, the speed of the upper fan is reduced to reduce the wind speed of the upper air outlet. At the same time, the upper air outlet is controlled to sweep the air upward to avoid the discomfort caused by hot air blowing on the face. At the same time, to ensure the temperature rise effect, the speed of the lower fan is increased to increase the heat output of the lower air outlet to achieve rapid heating.
[0094] Based on the different responses of different parts of the human body to cold and heat stimulation, this application proposes a comfortable air supply control method for human thermal stimulation needs at different ambient temperatures by identifying environmental conditions and system parameters, and realizes real-time automatic control of the optimal air outlet mode at all times:
[0095] The human body has different thermal comfort requirements for dynamic and steady-state environments under cooling and heating:
[0096] In a dynamic environment: Different parts of the human body respond differently to cold and heat stimulation, with the head and calves being the most sensitive. At this stage, the air supply airflow organization should respond to local cold and heat stimulation of the head and calves, so that the human body is more likely to feel comfortable. Therefore, the use of up and down air outlets at this stage can effectively stimulate the desired stimulation position of the human body, making the human body feel comfortable quickly, and quickly cooling / heating the room.
[0097] In a steady-state environment: During cooling, since the indoor temperature has reached a comfortable temperature, the human body does not want cold air to blow directly at the body. The most easily accepted cooling method is shower-style air supply, which avoids direct cold air blowing on people and greatly increases comfort. Therefore, the upper air outlet method is used at this stage. During heating, since the hot air floats, the room temperature is obviously stratified, and most of the heat accumulates in the upper area of the room. The feet, which are the part of the human body that most needs warmth, cannot get warmth. If the hot air can be delivered to the feet first to warm the feet, the steady-state thermal comfort of the human body in a cold environment can be greatly improved. At the same time, the indoor temperature in a steady-state environment has reached a comfortable temperature, and hot air blowing on the face will bring a feeling of dryness and discomfort. Therefore, the lower air outlet method is used at this stage.
