[0023] The preferred embodiments of the application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

[0024] In the description of the application, the "processor" can include hardware, software or a combination of both. The processor can be a central processor, a microprocessor, a digital signal processor or any other suitable processor. The processor has data and signal processing functions. The processor can be implemented in software, hardware or a combination of both.

[0025] Currently, in order to control the flow rate of the refrigerant to avoid the problem of noise generation, in the related art, the refrigerant pressure or the refrigerant temperature at one or more key positions such as the evaporator outlet, the compressor suction port vicinity, the condenser outlet, the compressor discharge port, and the front of the expansion valve is monitored, and the flow rate during the refrigerant flow is adjusted or controlled according to the refrigerant pressure or the refrigerant temperature to reduce the noise generated during the refrigerant flow. However, controlling the flow rate of the refrigerant through the refrigerant pressure or the refrigerant temperature at these positions has a certain hysteresis, and it is difficult to accurately capture the critical state of turbulent flow, resulting in a delay in the suppression of noise generated during the flow of the refrigerant, and poor noise reduction effect.

[0026] The present application provides a control method of an air conditioner to solve the problem of not timely suppressing noise generated during the flow of the refrigerant.

[0027] In combination with Figure 1 The control method of the air conditioner provided by the present application includes:

[0028] S11, determining a turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant according to the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet and / or the current frequency of the compressor.

[0029] S12, determining an opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve according to the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant and the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet.

[0030] S13, adjusting the opening of the electronic expansion valve according to the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve.

[0031] During the operation of the air conditioner, many abnormal operating conditions occur, including the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet exceeding the preset range value of the supercooling degree, and the current frequency of the compressor being low. In the existing scheme, the opening of the electronic expansion valve is usually a fixed value, and when the current frequency of the compressor is low and / or the supercooling degree is low, there is a problem of hysteresis in the adjustment of the opening of the expansion valve. Therefore, under these conditions, the flow rate of the refrigerant is likely to exceed the critical value of turbulent flow and cause flow noise.

[0032] Corresponding to this, in the present scheme, a temperature sensor is arranged at the refrigerant outlet of the condenser to detect the current refrigerant temperature at the refrigerant outlet of the condenser. The information processing module built in the air conditioner can determine the condensing pressure of the condenser and the corresponding saturated condensing temperature according to the refrigerant temperature at the refrigerant outlet of the condenser. The information processing module determines the supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the outlet according to the current refrigerant temperature and the saturated condensing temperature.

[0033] Optionally, the information processing module stores a refrigerant saturation characteristic table, which is used to determine the condensing pressure and the saturated condensing temperature corresponding to the current refrigerant temperature.

[0034] Alternatively, a pressure sensing device is arranged inside the condenser, and the condensing pressure of the condenser is obtained by the pressure sensing device.

[0035] Further, the scheme further arranges a current sensor at the motor driving side of the compressor, and the operating frequency of the compressor is determined by the current obtained by the current sensor. Alternatively, the operating frequency of the compressor can be determined according to the formula: f = I / I e , wherein I represents the current value detected by the current sensor, I e is the rated current of the compressor when operating at the rated voltage and the rated power. The current frequency of the compressor is obtained by detecting the current value, which is real-time and accurate, and can more accurately reflect the actual operating state of the compressor. This way can avoid the hysteresis problem caused by obtaining the current frequency of the compressor through other indirect parameters, and can improve the response speed and accuracy of the refrigerant flow rate control.

[0036] In the scheme, the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined according to the current supercooling degree and the current frequency of the compressor, and further, the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined according to the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet. After determining the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve, the opening of the electronic expansion valve is regulated to reduce the flow speed of the refrigerant, thereby reducing the noise generated by the flow of the refrigerant.

[0037] In the case of adopting the above technical scheme, the current turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant can be determined through the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet and / or the current frequency of the compressor; further, the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined in real time through the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value and the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet, so that the opening of the electronic expansion valve suitable for the current operating parameters can be determined, thereby realizing the control of the refrigerant flow rate, maintaining the refrigerant flow rate in the low noise interval, and further improving the adaptability of the air conditioner while reducing the energy consumption of the air conditioner. Through real-time monitoring and adjustment, the air conditioner can quickly respond and make reasonable adjustments when the supercooling degree is abnormal and / or the compressor frequency fluctuates abnormally, so as to ensure that the flow state of the refrigerant always remains in the best interval, and to suppress noise in time, thereby ensuring the mute effect of the air conditioner and improving the overall performance and reliability of the equipment.

[0038] In combination with Figure 2 , the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined according to the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet and / or the current frequency of the compressor, including:

[0039] S21, determining the current turbulent flow rate threshold of the refrigerant according to the current temperature, current pressure and current flow rate of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet.

[0040] S22, determining a turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant according to the current turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant, and the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the outlet of the condenser and / or the current frequency of the compressor.

[0041] In this scheme, the current flow state of the refrigerant is determined according to the current temperature, the current pressure and the current flow velocity of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator. The current flow state herein includes liquid phase, gas phase or gas-liquid two-phase flow state.

[0042] Through the above scheme, the current turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant can be corrected, so as to obtain the turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant in real time. After the turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant is determined, the deviation value of the refrigerant flow is calculated further in combination with the current flow velocity of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator, and the opening adjustment amount of the opening of the electronic expansion valve is obtained according to the deviation value. This dynamic adjustment mechanism can effectively cope with the problem of excessively high refrigerant flow velocity caused by abnormal operating parameters during the operation of the air conditioner. In this way, not only can the refrigerant flow velocity be ensured to always remain in the ideal low noise interval, but also the stability and energy efficiency ratio of the system can be significantly improved.

[0043] In the optional embodiment of the control method of the air conditioner, the current turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant is determined according to the current temperature, the current pressure and the current flow velocity of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator, which includes: determining the current flow state of the refrigerant according to the current temperature and the current pressure of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator; and determining the current turbulent flow velocity threshold value of the refrigerant according to the current flow state and the current flow velocity of the refrigerant.

[0044] Specifically, the property parameters of the refrigerant can be determined according to the current temperature and the current pressure of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator. The determined property parameters of the refrigerant include the density and dynamic viscosity of the refrigerant. Further, in combination with the current flow velocity of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator, the current turbulent threshold value of the refrigerant can be determined. It should be noted that the diameter of the pipe section at the inlet of the evaporator needs to be obtained to calculate the turbulent threshold value of the refrigerant. The diameter of the pipe section at the inlet of the evaporator can be directly pre-stored in the information processing module, or a measuring device can be arranged at the inlet to upload the diameter or radius of the pipe section in real time.

[0045] Specifically, the applicant has found that if the current flow state of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator is liquid phase, the turbulent threshold value Re l >2300; and if the current flow state of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator is gas-liquid phase, the turbulent threshold value Re g >4000. Therefore, the property parameters of the refrigerant, including the density and viscosity, can be determined according to the current temperature and the current pressure of the refrigerant. Further, the current turbulent threshold value of the refrigerant can be determined according to the current flow velocity of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator, so as to determine the current flow state of the refrigerant.

[0046] Further, if the current flow state of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet is gas-liquid two-phase state and the liquid phase is dominant in the gas-liquid two-phase state, the turbulent flow threshold Re tp-l ≥2000, and further determines the current turbulent flow velocity threshold by the physical parameters of the current refrigerant and the current flow rate. If the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet is gas-liquid two-phase state and the gas phase is dominant in the gas-liquid two-phase state, the turbulent flow threshold Re tp-g ≥4000, and further determines the current turbulent flow velocity threshold by the physical parameters of the current refrigerant and the current flow rate.

[0047] It should be noted that generally the refrigerant flowing out of the condenser outlet is liquid-phase refrigerant, that is, after throttling and pressure reduction of the electronic expansion valve, the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet may be liquid-phase refrigerant dominant even if it is in gas-liquid two-phase state.

[0048] In the scheme, further, the current turbulent flow velocity threshold of the refrigerant, and the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet and / or the current frequency of the compressor are combined to calculate and obtain the turbulent flow velocity threshold correction value of the refrigerant.

[0049] Through the above scheme, the current turbulent flow velocity threshold of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet can be accurately determined, so as to provide an accurate basis for subsequent calculation and ensure the accuracy of the opening correction of the electronic expansion valve.

[0050] In the optional embodiment of the control method of the air conditioner, the turbulent flow velocity threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined according to the current turbulent flow velocity threshold of the refrigerant, and the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet and / or the current frequency of the compressor, including: if the current supercooling degree is less than a preset supercooling degree value and the current frequency f of the compressor is greater than or equal to a preset frequency, the turbulent flow velocity threshold correction value is determined as V d *[1-0.05×(5-ΔT sc )]; if the current supercooling degree is greater than or equal to the preset supercooling degree value and the current frequency of the compressor is less than the preset frequency, the turbulent flow velocity threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined as V d *[1-0.02×(30-f)]; and if the current supercooling degree is less than the preset supercooling degree value and the current frequency of the compressor is less than the preset frequency, the turbulent flow velocity threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined as V d *[1-0.05×(5-ΔT sc )]*[1-0.02×(30-f)].

[0051] Wherein, V d represents the current turbulent flow velocity threshold, ΔT sc represents the current supercooling degree of the refrigerant at the condenser outlet, and f represents the current frequency of the compressor.

[0052] In the scheme, if the current supercooling degree is less than the preset supercooling degree value and the current frequency f of the compressor is greater than or equal to the preset frequency, it is indicated that the air conditioner only has the problem of supercooling degree anomaly. If the opening of the electronic expansion valve cannot respond in time to reduce the opening, the flow rate of the refrigerant will be too high and noise will occur. At this time, only the supercooling degree is used to determine the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value, that is, the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined according to the formula V d *[1-0.05×(5-ΔT sc )].

[0053] If the current supercooling degree is greater than or equal to the preset supercooling degree value and the current frequency of the compressor is less than the preset frequency, it is indicated that the air conditioner only has the condition of low frequency operation of the compressor, that is, low frequency operation. At this time, only the operating frequency of the compressor is used to determine the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value, that is, the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined according to the formula V d *[1-0.02×(30-f)], and then the opening of the electronic expansion valve is reduced according to the obtained opening adjustment amount.

[0054] If the current supercooling degree is less than the preset supercooling degree value and the current frequency of the compressor is less than the preset frequency, it is indicated that the air conditioner is in low frequency operation and the current refrigerant has supercooling degree anomaly. At this time, the supercooling degree and the current frequency of the compressor are used to determine the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value, that is, the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant is determined according to the formula V d *[1-0.05×*(5-ΔT sc )]*[1-0.02×(30-f)], and then the opening of the electronic expansion valve is reduced according to the obtained opening adjustment amount.

[0055] Through the above scheme, the current turbulent flow rate threshold of the refrigerant can be corrected in time to obtain an accurate turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant, thereby facilitating improvement of the accuracy of the opening adjustment amount of the electromagnetic expansion valve.

[0056] As shown in FIG. Figure 3 , the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined according to the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant and the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator, comprising:

[0057] S31, the current flow rate deviation e (k) = V-V' is determined according to the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value of the refrigerant and the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator.

[0058] S32, if the current flow rate deviation e (k) is greater than the preset difference value, the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined according to the flow rate deviation

[0059]

[0060] Wherein, V represents the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet, V' represents the threshold correction value of the turbulent flow rate of the refrigerant, K p represents the proportional coefficient, K i represents the integral coefficient, K d represents the differential coefficient, and ΔY represents the opening adjustment amount, e (k-1) represents the flow rate deviation of the previous current flow rate. represents the error sum from j=0 to j=k.

[0061] In the present scheme, if the current flow rate deviation e (k) is greater than the preset difference value, it indicates that the current flow rate of the refrigerant exceeds the threshold correction value of the turbulent flow rate of the refrigerant, that is, the flow state of the refrigerant is in a turbulent state. In order to keep the flow state of the refrigerant in a laminar flow state, the opening of the electronic expansion valve needs to be dynamically adjusted in real time at this time to adapt to the operation of the air conditioner, thereby reducing the flow rate of the refrigerant to reduce the noise of the refrigerant. Specifically, the opening of the electronic expansion valve needs to be reduced according to the opening adjustment amount. The value of the preset difference value is set before leaving the factory. Preferably, the value of the preset difference value is zero.

[0062] Wherein, the PID control algorithm is used in the present scheme to calculate and optimize the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve. Wherein, the proportional coefficient K p is used to quickly respond to the flow rate deviation, the integral coefficient K i is used to eliminate static error, and the differential coefficient K d is used to predict the flow rate trend and suppress system oscillation. By reasonably configuring the PID parameters, the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve can be more accurate, so that the adjustment when the opening of the electronic expansion valve is reduced is more smooth and accurate.

[0063] Further, after determining the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve, the information processing module can generate a control signal according to the opening adjustment amount and transmit it to the driving unit of the electronic expansion valve. After receiving the control signal, the driving unit of the electronic expansion valve accurately reduces the opening of the electronic expansion valve to realize dynamic control of the flow rate of the refrigerant.

[0064] Through the above method, the present scheme realizes fine control of the flow rate of the refrigerant, not only effectively reduces the noise caused by the flow of the refrigerant, but also significantly improves the overall operation efficiency of the air conditioner and user experience.

[0065] According to the threshold correction value of the turbulent flow rate of the refrigerant and the current flow rate of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet, the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined, which further comprises: if the current flow rate deviation e (k) is less than or equal to the preset difference value, the opening adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined to be zero, and the operating parameters of the air conditioner remain unchanged.

[0066] If the current flow rate deviation e (k) If the current flow rate deviation e (k) If the current flow rate deviation e

[0067] By this scheme, over-regulation or incorrect regulation of the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve can be avoided, thereby ensuring the stability of the air conditioner during operation, thereby reducing system fluctuations or energy loss that may be caused by frequent adjustment of the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve.

[0068] In combination with the above technical details, this scheme realizes comprehensive management of the refrigerant flow rate through multi-level dynamic regulation strategy. Whether it is supercooling degree anomaly or compressor frequency fluctuation, the system can quickly respond and make reasonable adjustment to ensure that the refrigerant flow state always remains in the best interval. This not only improves the silence effect of the air conditioner, but also improves the overall performance and reliability of the air conditioner, bringing users a more comfortable and energy-saving use experience.

[0069] In combination with Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 8, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted according to the opening degree adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve, including:

[0070] S41, determining the target opening degree of the electronic expansion valve according to the opening degree adjustment amount and the current opening degree of the electronic expansion valve, and controlling the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve to adjust to the target opening degree.

[0071] S42, after the first time length, determining the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value and the flow rate of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator again.

[0072] In this way, after the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is reduced to the target opening degree and continues to run for the first time length, the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value and the flow rate of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator are obtained again. According to the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value and the flow rate of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator obtained again, the flow rate deviation of the refrigerant is determined again. According to the flow rate deviation of the refrigerant determined again, the opening degree adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve is determined again, and then the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is adjusted, so as to ensure that the air conditioner always operates at low noise and improve comfort.

[0073] Optionally, the first time length is set when the air conditioner is manufactured. Optionally, the first time length can be 1 minute, 3 minutes, 6 minutes, etc.

[0074] In this scheme, the actual flow rate of the refrigerant can be re-evaluated after the first time length of adjusting the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve each time. If the flow rate deviation still exists, the turbulent flow rate threshold of the refrigerant is corrected again to obtain the adjustment amount of the electronic expansion valve again to adjust the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve, i.e., to reduce the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve, thereby realizing continuous optimization and dynamic management of the refrigerant flow rate. In addition, such a dynamic regulation method not only can improve the response speed of the air conditioner, but also can effectively avoid performance fluctuation problems caused by insufficient or excessive adjustment.

[0075] In an optional embodiment of the control method of the air conditioner, after determining the target opening degree of the electronic expansion valve according to the opening degree adjustment amount and the current opening degree, the method further includes: if the target opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is less than or equal to the minimum opening degree threshold of the electronic expansion valve, controlling the electronic expansion valve to operate according to the minimum opening degree threshold.

[0076] In this scheme, when determining the target opening degree of the electronic expansion valve, if the calculated target opening degree is less than or equal to the minimum opening degree threshold of the electronic expansion valve, the opening degree of the electronic expansion valve is directly adjusted to the minimum opening degree threshold for operation. In this way, it can be ensured that the electronic expansion valve will not affect the normal flow of the refrigerant due to excessive closing, while avoiding system abnormalities caused by too small opening degree.

[0077] The minimum opening degree threshold is usually determined by the design parameters of the air conditioner and is set before the device is manufactured. In this way, the system can effectively prevent performance problems or potential risks caused by too low opening degree while ensuring stable refrigerant flow rate.

[0078] Optionally, the minimum opening degree threshold can also be dynamically optimized in combination with historical operation data. Specifically, the information processing module of the air conditioner can record the actual operation data of the electronic expansion valve under different working conditions, and identify a more optimal minimum opening degree threshold through data analysis. In this way, it can better adapt to the user's usage habits and environmental changes, thereby realizing more accurate and efficient flow rate management of the refrigerant.

[0079] Further, after controlling the electronic expansion valve to operate according to the minimum opening degree threshold, the turbulent flow rate threshold correction value and the flow rate of the refrigerant at the inlet of the evaporator can be determined again after a second time length.
