[0100] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing service device with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a tablet computer, personal computer, or mobile phone, or an electronic device or environmental control system capable of performing the above functions. The following description uses an environmental control system as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the subsequent embodiments.

[0101] Based on this, embodiments of this application provide a control method for an environmental control system, referring to... Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the control method for the environmental control system of this application.

[0102] In this embodiment, the control method of the environmental control system includes steps S10 to S20:

[0103] Step S10: When the hybrid function of the environmental control system is turned on and the indoor unit is in heating mode, obtain the ambient temperature of the environment where the environmental control system is located.

[0104] The indoor unit and the terminal equipment are both located in the same indoor space. In this embodiment, the terminal equipment includes a radiating terminal.

[0105] The hybrid function indicates that the indoor space where the indoor unit and terminal equipment are located has a need for heating using the indoor unit and terminal equipment in tandem. When the hybrid function is activated, the heating system is turned on and in standby mode.

[0106] In this embodiment, the hybrid function is activated in response to a user command; for example, the user can click an icon to input a command to activate the hybrid function. In other embodiments, the hybrid function may also be activated when the user's state in the indoor space reaches a preset state or when the system detects that the user is about to enter the indoor space.

[0107] The ambient temperature can be detected by the aforementioned environmental detection module. The ambient temperature may include the indoor temperature and / or outdoor temperature of the indoor space. In this embodiment, the ambient temperature includes both indoor and outdoor temperatures. The indoor temperature may include the temperature of the return air vent of the indoor unit and / or the temperature of the area where the terminal equipment is installed and / or the temperature of the area outside the indoor unit and the terminal equipment.

[0108] Step S20: When the ambient temperature meets the preset conditions, control the heating system to operate to increase the heating capacity of the terminal equipment; wherein, the preset conditions indicate that the heating capacity of the heat pump system is insufficient.

[0109] The preset conditions may include the target temperature range that the indoor temperature and / or outdoor temperature need to reach when the indoor heating capacity is insufficient, and / or, the preset conditions may include the target relationship between the indoor temperature and the outdoor temperature when the indoor heating capacity is insufficient, and / or, the preset conditions may include the target relationship between the indoor temperature and / or the outdoor temperature and the corresponding temperature threshold when the indoor heating capacity is insufficient, etc.

[0110] In this embodiment, the ambient temperature includes indoor temperature and outdoor temperature. The preset conditions include: the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the set temperature corresponding to the indoor space is less than a first preset temperature difference, and the outdoor temperature is less than a first preset ambient temperature. The set temperature is the target temperature that the indoor space needs to reach during the operation of the environmental control system. The set temperature can be set by the user or by the system based on the user's status in the indoor space. Based on this, the heating capacity of the heat pump system in the current environment can be accurately reflected by the indoor temperature status and the outdoor temperature status. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the preset conditions may also include the indoor temperature being less than a temperature threshold and the outdoor temperature being less than the first preset ambient temperature; the preset conditions may also include the outdoor temperature being less than a temperature threshold, and so on.

[0111] Improving the heating capacity of terminal devices may include switching the terminal device from a stopped heating state to a heating state (including switching the heating device from off to on, or switching the refrigerant flow from stopped to flow into the terminal device when the heating device is on) or adjusting the operating parameters of the heating system (including the operating parameters of the terminal device itself and / or components other than the terminal device in the heating system) to increase the heating capacity of the terminal device.

[0112] This embodiment provides a control method for an environmental regulation system. When the hybrid function is activated and the indoor unit is in heating mode, if the ambient temperature indicates that the heating capacity of the indoor unit is insufficient, the heating capacity is increased by the terminal equipment in the heating system to supplement the system's heating capacity for the indoor space. The two systems no longer operate independently but can coordinate and cooperate to heat the space, thereby effectively improving the heating efficiency of the system and enhancing the thermal comfort of indoor users.

[0113] In one feasible implementation, when the hybrid function of the environmental control system is activated and the indoor unit is in heating mode, obtaining the ambient temperature of the environment where the environmental control system is located includes: obtaining the ambient temperature when the hybrid function of the environmental control system is activated, the indoor unit is in heating mode, and the terminal device is in a state of not heating; the step of controlling the operation of the heating system to increase the heating capacity of the terminal device includes: controlling the operation of the heating system to put the terminal device in heating mode.

[0114] Based on this, when the indoor heating capacity is insufficient, the terminal equipment can be turned on in time to supplement the system's heating capacity, thereby effectively improving the indoor heating efficiency when there is a need for coordinated heating and meeting the comfort needs of indoor users.

[0115] In this embodiment, when the hybrid function is activated and both the indoor unit and the terminal device are in heating mode, the environmental control system can be controlled to maintain its current operation. In other embodiments, the ambient temperature can also be obtained when the hybrid function of the environmental control system is activated, the indoor unit is in heating mode, and the terminal device is in heating mode. The step of controlling the operation of the heating system to increase the heating capacity of the terminal device includes: controlling the operation of the heating system to further increase the heating capacity of the terminal device based on the current heating capacity.

[0116] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the second embodiment of this application, the same or similar content as the above embodiments can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, please refer to... Figure 4 After step S20, the following steps are also included:

[0117] Step S30: Adjust the heating capacity of the indoor unit according to the indoor temperature of the indoor space.

[0118] Adjusting the heating capacity of the indoor unit here can include increasing the heating capacity, decreasing the heating capacity, or maintaining the heating capacity.

[0119] Increasing the heating capacity of an indoor unit in a heat pump system includes at least one of the following: increasing the operating frequency of the compressor, increasing the speed of the indoor fan, increasing the set temperature of the indoor unit, increasing the opening of the electronic expansion valve in the indoor unit, etc.

[0120] To reduce the heating capacity of an indoor unit in a heat pump system, at least one of the following methods may be employed: reducing the operating frequency of the compressor, reducing the speed of the indoor fan, lowering the set temperature of the indoor unit, or reducing the opening of the electronic expansion valve in the indoor unit.

[0121] In one implementation, the heating capacity of the indoor unit can be adjusted according to the indoor temperature range. In another implementation, the set temperature of the indoor unit can be adjusted according to the relationship between the indoor temperature and the set temperature.

[0122] In this embodiment, while adjusting the indoor unit's heating capacity according to the indoor temperature, the indoor unit maintains its heating state. In other embodiments, the indoor unit may also switch from heating state to off-heating state.

[0123] In this embodiment, when both the indoor unit and the terminal device are in heating mode, the heating supply of the indoor unit is adapted to the indoor temperature control, which helps to ensure that the indoor unit and the terminal device work together to achieve a rapid increase in indoor temperature while ensuring that the indoor temperature meets the user's comfort requirements.

[0124] In other embodiments, the indoor unit can also maintain a fixed heating output after step S20.

[0125] In one feasible implementation of this embodiment, the step of adjusting the heating capacity of the indoor unit according to the indoor temperature includes: determining the temperature difference between the set temperature corresponding to the indoor space and the indoor temperature; adjusting the set temperature of the indoor unit according to the temperature difference; and controlling the operation of the heat pump system according to the adjusted set temperature of the indoor unit.

[0126] The temperature difference value is the difference between the set temperature and the indoor temperature.

[0127] In one implementation, the target set temperature is determined based on the temperature difference, and the current set temperature of the indoor unit is adjusted to the target set temperature. In another implementation, a temperature adjustment value is determined based on the temperature difference, and the current set temperature of the indoor unit is adjusted based on the temperature adjustment value.

[0128] In this embodiment, the step of adjusting the set temperature of the indoor unit according to the temperature difference value includes: increasing the set temperature of the indoor unit when the temperature difference value is greater than a second preset temperature difference; and / or, decreasing the set temperature of the indoor unit to the user-set temperature when the temperature difference value is less than a third preset temperature difference; and / or, maintaining the set temperature of the indoor unit unchanged when the temperature difference value is greater than or equal to the third preset temperature difference and less than or equal to the second preset temperature difference; wherein the third preset temperature difference is less than the second preset temperature difference.

[0129] The user-set temperature is the target temperature value that the user wants to achieve in the indoor space.

[0130] The set temperature of the indoor unit can be increased by adjusting according to the preset fixed adjustment parameters, or by adjusting according to the actual operation of the environmental control system. For example, the temperature adjustment value can be determined based on the temperature difference between the return air temperature of the indoor unit and the area temperature of the terminal equipment, and the set temperature of the indoor unit can be increased according to the determined temperature adjustment value.

[0131] In this embodiment, the above method helps to ensure rapid indoor heating while ensuring that the indoor temperature after heating accurately meets the user's comfort needs.

[0132] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the third embodiment of this application, the same or similar content as the above embodiments can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. Based on this, please refer to... Figure 5 After step S20, the following steps are also included:

[0133] Step S40: When the conditions for exiting the hybrid function are met, control the heating system to stop the terminal equipment from heating, and control the heat pump system to operate in the state before the hybrid function was activated.

[0134] The exit condition indicates that the indoor space does not have a need for hybrid heating.

[0135] If the indoor unit was in a stopped heating state before the hybrid function was activated, then the indoor unit will resume its stopped heating state; if the indoor unit was in a heating state before the hybrid function was activated, then the indoor unit will maintain its heating function and output the heating capacity before the hybrid function was activated.

[0136] If the exit condition is not met after step S20, step S30 is executed.

[0137] In this embodiment, by using the above method, the heating state of the environmental regulation system in the indoor space can be kept consistent before and after the hybrid function is activated, avoiding the indoor space temperature from continuously rising after the function is activated multiple times, which can effectively prevent indoor overheating and further improve the comfort of indoor users.

[0138] In this embodiment, the exit condition includes at least one of the following:

[0139] Condition 1: The temperature difference between the indoor space temperature and the corresponding set temperature is greater than the fourth preset temperature difference;

[0140] Condition 2: The temperature of the indoor space is greater than the second preset ambient temperature;

[0141] Condition 3: The temperature of the terminal device is greater than the first preset temperature;

[0142] Condition 4: The outdoor temperature of the environment where the environmental control system is located is greater than the third preset ambient temperature;

[0143] Condition 5: The temperature of the enclosure structure of the indoor space is greater than the second preset temperature.

[0144] Regarding condition 1, the set temperature is the target value that the indoor ambient temperature needs to reach. The fourth preset temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature difference mentioned above. In this embodiment, condition 1 includes the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the corresponding set temperature being greater than the fourth preset temperature difference and lasting for a first duration. When condition 1 is met, it indicates that the indoor temperature has been reached, and continuing to add heat will cause the indoor space to overheat and waste energy.

[0145] Regarding condition 2, the second preset ambient temperature is the upper limit of a pre-set user comfort temperature range. In this embodiment, condition 2 includes the indoor temperature being greater than the second preset ambient temperature for a second duration. Meeting condition 2 indicates that continued heating of the indoor space would cause overheating, leading to user discomfort.

[0146] Conditions 3 and 5 indicate whether the enclosure structure of the area or indoor space where the terminal device is located has completed heat storage. In this embodiment, the terminal device includes a radiant terminal, which is installed in the enclosure structure of the indoor space. The temperature of the enclosure structure can be determined by infrared detection information of the indoor space. If the terminal device is underfloor heating, the enclosure structure can be a floor. When conditions 3 and / or 5 are met, the enclosure structure can release heat to the indoor air and provide thermal radiation to the indoor users. Continuing to add heat would cause the indoor space to overheat and waste energy.

[0147] Condition 4 indicates that the heating demand of the environmental control system is small in the current environment.

[0148] In this embodiment, when the exit conditions are met, the heating system is controlled to stop the terminal equipment from heating, and the heat pump system is controlled to operate in the state before the hybrid function is activated.

[0149] In this embodiment, the exit conditions are set as described above, which helps to accurately identify whether the indoor space has a need for rapid heating, so that the system's heating capacity can be adjusted in a timely manner to meet the indoor demand, thereby further improving the comfort of indoor users.

[0150] In other embodiments, the exit condition may also include receiving an exit command for the hybrid function.

[0151] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the fourth embodiment of this application, the same or similar content as the above embodiments can be referred to the above description, and will not be repeated hereafter. In addition, the heating system further includes a refrigerant circulation loop and a heating device, wherein both the heating device and the terminal device are located in the refrigerant circulation loop, as described above. Figure 6 Step S20 includes:

[0152] Step S201: When the ambient temperature meets the preset conditions, control the heating device to turn on;

[0153] In this embodiment, the temperature of the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation loop can be increased when the heating device is turned on.

[0154] Turning on a heating device can include switching it from off to on.

[0155] Reference Figure 6 Following step S201, steps S50 to S70 are also included:

[0156] Step S50: Obtain the refrigerant temperature parameters of the refrigerant circulation loop;

[0157] The refrigerant temperature parameters are detected by a temperature detection module in the refrigerant circulation loop. The refrigerant temperature parameters include at least one of the following: the inlet temperature of the terminal device, the outlet temperature of the terminal device, the inlet temperature of the heating device, the outlet temperature of the heating device, etc.

[0158] Step S60: Determine the heating energy requirement of the heating equipment based on the refrigerant temperature parameters;

[0159] A pre-established correspondence between refrigerant temperature parameters and heating energy requirements can be established. This correspondence may include calculation formulas or mapping relationships. Based on this correspondence, the heating energy requirements corresponding to the current refrigerant temperature parameters can be determined.

[0160] When the refrigerant temperature parameter includes a refrigerant temperature, the heating energy requirement can be determined based on the temperature range in which the refrigerant temperature falls, or the heating energy requirement can be calculated by substituting the refrigerant temperature into the formula.

[0161] When the refrigerant temperature parameters include the refrigerant temperature corresponding to more than one location in the refrigerant circulation loop, the heating energy requirement can be determined based on the relationship between the more than one refrigerant temperature, or the heating energy requirement can be calculated by substituting the more than one refrigerant temperature into a preset formula.

[0162] Step S70: Control the operation of the heating equipment according to the required heating energy.

[0163] The heating control parameters of the heating equipment are determined according to the heating energy requirements, and the heating equipment is controlled to operate according to the heating control parameters. The heating control parameters may include at least one of the following: gas quantity, heating power, air quantity, number of ignited burners, etc.

[0164] After step S20, if the exit condition is not met, steps S50 to S70 and step S30 can be executed. The execution order between step S30 and steps S50 to S70 is not specifically limited.

[0165] In this embodiment, the heating capacity of the heating equipment can be precisely controlled through the above method, so as to effectively improve the heating efficiency of the heating system.

[0166] In one feasible implementation, the heating energy requirement is determined based on the refrigerant temperature parameters and the rated capacity of the heating equipment.

[0167] Rated capacity refers to the rated heat capacity of the heating equipment.

[0168] In one implementation, the heating energy requirement can be calculated by substituting the refrigerant temperature parameter and rated capacity into a preset formula. In another implementation, the temperature range of the refrigerant temperature parameter can be determined, and the heating energy requirement can be determined based on the temperature range and rated capacity.

[0169] In this embodiment, the refrigerant temperature parameter includes the inlet temperature of the terminal device and the outlet temperature of the terminal device. The step of determining the heating energy requirement based on the refrigerant temperature parameter and the rated capacity of the heating device includes: determining a first temperature difference between the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature, determining a second temperature difference between the outlet temperature and the target outlet temperature; and determining the heating energy requirement based on the first temperature difference, the second temperature difference, and the rated capacity.

[0170] The first temperature difference value must be positively correlated with the heating energy, and the second temperature difference value must be positively correlated with the heating energy.

[0171] For example, a first coefficient can be determined based on a first temperature difference value, and a second coefficient can be determined based on a second temperature difference value. The heating energy requirement can then be calculated using the first coefficient, the second coefficient, and the rated capacity. Alternatively, a target temperature difference can be determined based on the first and second temperature differences, and the heating energy requirement can be determined based on the target temperature difference and the rated capacity.

[0172] In this embodiment, the above method helps to ensure that the heating energy can accurately reflect the heating demand of the heating equipment, and to achieve accurate control of the output capacity of the heating equipment, so as to ensure rapid indoor heating to meet user comfort while improving the energy efficiency of the heating system.

[0173] In this embodiment, after the step of determining the heating energy requirement of the heating device based on the refrigerant temperature parameter, the method further includes: when the heating energy requirement is greater than the preset energy requirement, performing the step of controlling the operation of the heating device based on the heating energy requirement; when the heating energy requirement is less than or equal to the preset energy requirement, controlling the operation of the heating device based on the preset energy requirement.

[0174] This method enables the heating equipment to be forced to operate, ensuring that the heating equipment can maintain its heating state and the terminal equipment can maintain its heating output. This effectively compensates for the insufficient heating capacity of the indoor unit, achieves a rapid increase in indoor temperature, and effectively ensures the comfort of indoor users.

[0175] In this embodiment, the refrigerant circulation loop is equipped with a circulation pump and / or a control valve. The control valve is configured to regulate the refrigerant flow rate of the terminal equipment. The step of controlling the operation of the heating system to increase the heating capacity of the terminal equipment includes:

[0176] The heating device is controlled to turn on, and the circulating pump and / or the control valve are controlled to turn on. Turning on the heating device may include keeping the heating device on or switching it from off to on.

[0177] When the circulating pump is on, it drives the refrigerant to circulate and exchange heat between the heating equipment and the terminal equipment. When the circulating pump is off, the refrigerant stops circulating and exchanging heat between the heating equipment and the terminal equipment. When the control valve is open, the refrigerant heated by the heating equipment can flow into the terminal equipment for heat exchange. When the control valve is closed, the refrigerant heated by the heating equipment stops flowing into the terminal equipment for heat exchange.

[0178] In one implementation, when the heating device, circulating pump, and control valve are all closed, the control unit opens all of the heating device, circulating pump, and control valve. In another implementation, when the heating device is on, the circulating pump is on, and the control valve is closed, the control unit and circulating pump remain on, and the control valve opens.

[0179] The operating parameters after the circulating pump and / or control valve are turned on can be preset fixed parameters or parameters determined according to the actual operating conditions of the environmental control system.

[0180] In this embodiment, after controlling the circulation pump to start, the method further includes: controlling the operating speed of the circulation pump according to the heating energy requirement; or, controlling the circulation pump to operate at a speed greater than a preset speed. Here, the preset speed can be 70% of the circulation pump's maximum speed, etc. For example, the circulation pump can be controlled to operate at its maximum speed.

[0181] In this embodiment, the operation control of the above-mentioned components can ensure that the terminal equipment can effectively compensate for the insufficient heating capacity of the indoor unit. The circulation pump can control the speed according to the heating energy requirement or run at a high speed directly, which helps to ensure that the terminal equipment can provide sufficient heat supply to further improve indoor comfort.

[0182] In other embodiments, when the circulation pump and control valve are not installed, the heating equipment can also be turned on separately to increase the heating capacity of the terminal equipment.

[0183] It should be noted that the above examples are only for understanding this application and do not constitute a limitation on the control method of the environmental control system of this application.
