TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to air conditioner defrosting technology field, specifically to an air conditioner defrosting device and a defrosting method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] When the air conditioner operates in winter, frost will form on the surface of the outdoor evaporator due to the low temperature environment, which will isolate the frozen coil from the air, making the heat exchange poor, resulting in a decrease in the heating efficiency of the air conditioner. Long-term frost will increase the burden of the compressor, which may cause mechanical damage or shorten the service life of the air conditioner. Therefore, air conditioner defrosting operation is needed. Traditional air conditioner defrosting is mostly through system reverse cycle defrosting: when the outdoor unit is frosted, the air conditioner temporarily stops heating, the four-way valve is reversed, and the system enters the "cooling mode" (at this time, the indoor unit stops heat dissipation, and the outdoor unit becomes a condenser). The refrigerant is liquefied and heat is released in the outdoor condenser, so that the temperature of the evaporator (which temporarily serves as a condenser) surface rises, and the frost layer melts. Or use electric auxiliary defrosting: install electric heating wire or heating pipe near the outdoor evaporator, and directly heat when defrosting to melt the frost layer. However, the traditional air conditioner defrosting method still has some problems in actual use: using system reverse cycle to melt the frost layer on the condenser will lower the indoor temperature and increase the overall energy consumption, affecting the overall use effect.
