[0002] With the continuous advancement of life and technology, the requirements for product reliability are becoming increasingly stringent. In many fields, it is necessary to test the reliability of products or components during the process of cooling from high temperature to low temperature over a certain period of time, as well as the changes in material stress and material properties.

[0003] During linear cooling, the cooling capacity demand increases as the temperature decreases. Furthermore, as the temperature drops, the evaporation temperature also needs to decrease. When the condensation temperature is constant, the compressor's cooling capacity decreases as the evaporation temperature decreases. Therefore, the compressor's capacity varies significantly from the start to the end of linear cooling.

[0004] Currently, compressors are selected based on the maximum cooling capacity required during linear cooling, which results in high overall compressor energy consumption during this process.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0098] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0099] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of an environmental test chamber according to an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to... Figure 1 The environmental test chamber provided in this embodiment includes a refrigeration system and a chamber body. The refrigeration system is used to adjust the temperature inside the chamber. The refrigeration system includes a compressor 110, a throttling element 120, an evaporator 130, an evaporator fan 140, a condenser 150, and a condenser fan 160. The throttling element 120 can be an electronic expansion valve or other adjustable throttling element. The chamber body is mainly composed of thermal insulation material. The compressor 110 can be a variable frequency compressor.

[0100] This invention provides a temperature control method for an environmental test chamber. By precisely controlling the speed of the compressor 110, the opening degree of the throttling element 120, the speed of the evaporator fan 140, and the speed of the condenser fan 160 in the environmental test chamber, the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration system is matched with the cooling demand of the environmental test chamber, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system and improving the reliability of the refrigeration system.

[0101] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart of a temperature control method for an environmental test chamber according to an embodiment of the present invention. (Refer to...) Figure 2 The temperature control method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0102] S110: Obtain compressor parameter information, environmental test chamber set temperature information and current temperature information, throttling element parameter information and evaporator operation information.

[0103] The set temperature information includes the set start temperature, the set end temperature, and the set cooling time.

[0104] Specifically, compressor parameter information may include operating parameters during compressor operation and set compressor-related parameters. Throttling element parameter information may include information related to controlling the opening degree of the throttling element. Evaporator operating information may include operating parameters during evaporator operation.

[0105] The set start temperature refers to the temperature at which the environmental test chamber begins testing. The set end temperature refers to the temperature at which the environmental test chamber completely ends testing. The set cooling time refers to the total time it takes for the environmental test chamber to cool from the set start temperature to the set end temperature. The set start temperature, set end temperature, and set cooling time can be set according to actual needs. The set start temperature must be greater than the set end temperature. The current temperature information refers to the temperature of the environmental test chamber during the testing process.

[0106] S120. Determine the linear cooling rate based on the set temperature information.

[0107] Specifically, the linear cooling rate can be determined by the ratio of the difference between the set starting temperature and the set ending temperature to the set cooling time. The linear cooling rate refers to a fixed rate of temperature change that can be guaranteed within any given time period. The linear cooling rate is a key technical parameter in environmental test chambers, ensuring a constant cooling rate over any given time period, which is crucial for achieving precise temperature control and simulating environmental conditions. The linear cooling rate can also be understood as the target cooling rate, a cooling rate value required to achieve the actual cooling rate of the environmental test chamber.

[0108] S130. Based on the linear cooling rate, set starting temperature, current temperature information, compressor parameter information, throttling element parameter information, and evaporator operating information, determine the compressor adjustment speed, throttling element adjustment opening, evaporator fan adjustment speed, and condenser fan adjustment speed, respectively.

[0109] Specifically, the compressor speed is related to the cooling capacity of the environmental test chamber. The higher the compressor speed, the greater the refrigerant flow rate compressed per unit time, and the stronger the cooling capacity of the refrigeration system. During the linear cooling process of the environmental test chamber, the required cooling capacity varies at different times. Therefore, this embodiment controls the cooling capacity within the environmental test chamber by controlling the compressor speed, ensuring that the compressor's cooling capacity matches the required cooling capacity. This avoids maintaining a fixed compressor speed during the cooling process, which would increase the compressor's power consumption.

[0110] The throttling element can adjust the flow rate of refrigerant in the environmental test chamber. The flow rate of refrigerant affects the temperature inside the environmental test chamber. Therefore, in this embodiment, the temperature of the environmental test chamber is further controlled by adjusting the opening of the throttling element to ensure the reliability of the refrigeration system.

[0111] The evaporator is a key component of the refrigeration system, responsible for absorbing heat and causing the refrigerant to evaporate, thereby lowering the temperature inside the environmental test chamber. The evaporator fan forces air to flow across the evaporator fins, promoting heat exchange and delivering cool air into the environmental test chamber while ensuring uniform temperature distribution. Therefore, the evaporator fan speed can affect the cooling capacity within the environmental test chamber. This embodiment controls the cooling capacity within the environmental test chamber by controlling the evaporator fan speed, thus avoiding the increased power consumption of the evaporator fan due to its constant rotational speed during cooling, and also preventing insufficient airflow from the evaporator fan from affecting the reliability and cooling capacity of the refrigeration system.

[0112] In the refrigeration system of the environmental test chamber, the compressor compresses the gaseous refrigerant to a high-temperature, high-pressure state and then sends it to the condenser. At this time, the condenser fan accelerates the release of heat from the refrigerant to the outside environment through forced air convection, causing it to condense from a gaseous state into a liquid state, providing the necessary conditions for cooling. The rotational speed of the condenser fan affects the airflow generated by the condenser fan, and the airflow of the condenser fan affects the cooling rate of the environmental test chamber. Therefore, this embodiment can regulate the temperature of the environmental test chamber and control the energy consumption of the condenser fan by precisely controlling the rotational speed of the condenser fan.

[0113] This embodiment determines the compressor speed adjustment, throttling element adjustment degree, evaporator fan speed adjustment, and condenser fan speed adjustment based on the linear cooling rate, set starting temperature, current temperature information, compressor parameter information, throttling element parameter information, and evaporator operating information. This allows for precise control of the temperature inside the environmental test chamber, ensuring the reliability of the environmental test chamber's operation. It also reduces the power consumption of the compressor, evaporator fan, and condenser fan, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0114] S140. Adjust the compressor speed to the compressor adjustment speed, adjust the throttling element opening to the throttling element adjustment opening, adjust the evaporator fan speed to the evaporator fan adjustment speed, and adjust the condenser fan speed to the condenser fan adjustment speed.

[0115] Specifically, after determining the compressor speed, throttling element opening, evaporator fan speed, and condenser fan speed, adjust the compressor speed, throttling element opening, evaporator fan speed, and condenser fan speed to the corresponding determined values. This ensures that the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration system matches the cooling requirements of the environmental test chamber, improves the temperature control accuracy of the environmental test chamber, makes the linear cooling curve of the environmental test chamber closer to linear, and also reduces the power consumption of the refrigeration system.

[0116] This embodiment provides a temperature control method for an environmental test chamber. This method controls the compressor speed, the opening degree of the throttling element, the evaporator fan speed, and the condenser fan speed based on the linear cooling rate, the set starting temperature, the current temperature information, compressor parameter information, throttling element parameter information, and evaporator operating information. This ensures that the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration system matches the required cooling capacity within the environmental test chamber, resulting in a more linear cooling curve within the chamber. This guarantees the reliability of the environmental test chamber and reduces the power consumption of the compressor, evaporator fan, and condenser fan, thereby lowering the overall power consumption of the refrigeration system within the environmental test chamber. In summary, the temperature control method for an environmental test chamber provided in this embodiment can accurately control the temperature within the chamber, improve the operational reliability of the environmental test chamber, and reduce the energy consumption of the refrigeration system within the chamber.

[0117] Optional, Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating another method for temperature control in an environmental test chamber according to an embodiment of the present invention. (Refer to...) Figure 3 The temperature control method for the environmental test chamber provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0118] S210: Obtain compressor parameter information, environmental test chamber set temperature information and current temperature information, throttling element parameter information and evaporator operation information.

[0119] Step S210 is identical to step S110. For a detailed description of step S210, please refer to the description of step S110. It will not be repeated here.

[0120] S220: Determine the linear cooling rate based on the set temperature information.

[0121] Step S220 is identical to step S120. For a detailed description of step S220, please refer to the description of step S120. It will not be repeated here.

[0122] S230: Determine the compressor adjustment speed based on the linear cooling rate, set starting temperature, current temperature information, and compressor parameter information.

[0123] Specifically, this embodiment determines the compressor adjustment speed based on the linear cooling rate, the set starting temperature, and the current temperature information. That is, it precisely adjusts the compressor speed according to the actual temperature information inside the environmental test chamber and the set temperature information, thereby matching the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration system with the cooling capacity required by the environmental test chamber, thus reducing the compressor's operating power consumption. Simultaneously, determining the compressor adjustment speed based on compressor parameter information ensures that the compressor's operating conditions are within a reasonable range, extending the compressor's service life.

[0124] S240: Determine the opening degree of the throttling element based on the linear cooling rate, the set starting temperature, the current temperature information, and the throttling element parameter information.

[0125] Specifically, based on the actual temperature information, set temperature information, and throttling element parameter information inside the environmental test chamber, the adjustment degree of the throttling element can be accurately determined. This allows the adjusted throttling element to match the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration system with the cooling capacity required by the environmental test chamber, thereby improving the reliability of the environmental test chamber.

[0126] S250. Determine the evaporator fan speed adjustment based on the current temperature information and evaporator operating information.

[0127] Specifically, evaporator operating information can include temperature-related information during evaporator operation. Based on the current temperature information and evaporator operating information within the environmental test chamber, the evaporator fan speed can be precisely determined. This allows the airflow generated by the adjusted evaporator fan to match the cooling capacity of the refrigeration system with the cooling capacity required by the environmental test chamber, improving the reliability of the environmental test chamber and reducing the power consumption of the evaporator fan.

[0128] S260. Determine the condenser fan speed based on the compressor adjustment speed, linear cooling rate, and compressor parameter information.

[0129] Specifically, the compressor compresses the refrigerant after the evaporator and then sends it to the condenser. The condenser fan helps dissipate heat, allowing the refrigerant to condense. If the condenser fan malfunctions, insufficient heat dissipation will lead to increased condensing pressure. This will increase the compressor's workload, power consumption, and may even cause overheating protection shutdown. Conversely, insufficient condensing pressure may affect the condensing effect, and the condenser fan may need to adjust its speed to adapt. It is evident that the condenser fan and compressor have a strong coupling relationship in the refrigeration system, and their coordinated operation directly affects the refrigeration system's efficiency, energy consumption, and reliability. This embodiment determines the condenser fan adjustment speed based on the compressor's adjustment speed, linear cooling rate, and compressor parameter information. This ensures that the adjusted condenser fan speed matches the compressor's operating state, guaranteeing normal operation of the refrigeration system while matching the cooling capacity generated by the system with the cooling capacity required by the environmental test chamber, thus reducing the refrigeration system's power consumption.

[0130] S270. Adjust the compressor speed to the compressor adjustment speed, adjust the throttling element opening to the throttling element adjustment opening, adjust the evaporator fan speed to the evaporator fan adjustment speed, and adjust the condenser fan speed to the condenser fan adjustment speed.

[0131] Step S270 is identical to step S140. For a detailed description of step S270, please refer to the description of step S140. It will not be repeated here.

[0132] Optionally, the compressor parameter information includes compressor suction pressure, compressor speed control reference suction pressure, compressor discharge pressure, and compressor speed control reference discharge pressure; the throttling element parameter information includes a first equity coefficient and a second equity coefficient.

[0133] Specifically, the first and second equity coefficients can be set and stored in the environmental test chamber according to actual conditions. Compressor suction pressure and compressor discharge pressure refer to parameter information during actual compressor operation. The compressor speed control reference suction pressure and compressor speed control reference discharge pressure can be set parameters. Compressor suction pressure is the actual pressure of the refrigerant at the compressor inlet, and compressor discharge pressure is the actual pressure of the refrigerant at the compressor outlet. The compressor suction pressure can be obtained through a compressor suction pressure sensor, and the compressor discharge pressure can be obtained through a compressor discharge pressure sensor. The compressor speed control reference discharge pressure can be set and stored in the environmental test chamber according to actual conditions.

[0134] The compressor speed control reference suction pressure can be obtained by looking up a table. Current temperature information includes the current actual temperature. The compressor speed control reference suction pressure can be determined based on the linear cooling rate, the current actual temperature, and a first database. The first database includes the compressor speed control reference suction pressure at different linear cooling rates and different current actual temperatures. For example, the table below shows the first database:

[0135] T1 T2 … Tj V1 LP0_11 LP0_12 … LP0_1j V2 LP0_21 LP0_22 … LP0_2j … … … … … Vi LP0_i1 LP0_i2 … LP0_ij
