[0025] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes an air conditioning system control method, a computer-readable storage medium, an air conditioning system control device, and an air conditioning system according to embodiments of the present invention.
[0026] It should be noted that in some embodiments of the present invention, the air conditioning system can be a conventional air conditioning system or a multi-split air conditioning system.
[0027] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the control method of an air conditioning system according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0028] Specifically, in some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control method for the air conditioning system includes: S101, obtain the equipment capacity model and return air state model of the indoor unit, and obtain the heat exchange capacity value and return air enthalpy boundary value of the indoor unit according to the equipment capacity model and return air state model respectively.
[0029] It is understood that in this embodiment of the present invention, the heat exchange capacity value of the indoor unit is calculated by combining the equipment capacity model with the system operating parameters of the indoor unit, and the return air enthalpy boundary value of the indoor unit is calculated by combining the return air parameters and the comfort humidity boundary value of the indoor unit with the return air state model.
[0030] S102, obtain the air supply volume and air outlet state model of the indoor unit, and obtain the air supply enthalpy boundary value of the indoor unit based on the heat exchange capacity value, return air enthalpy boundary value, air supply volume and air outlet state model.
[0031] It is understood that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the enthalpy boundary value of the indoor unit's supply air is calculated by combining the heat exchange capacity value of the indoor unit, the enthalpy boundary value of the return air, and the supply air volume with the air outlet state model.
[0032] S103 adjusts the evaporation temperature of the air conditioning system according to the boundary value of the enthalpy of the air supplied by the indoor unit, and controls the air conditioning system to cool according to the adjusted evaporation temperature.
[0033] It is understandable that, compared to the existing technology that dynamically adjusts the evaporation temperature based solely on the supply air temperature, in this embodiment of the present invention, the evaporation temperature of the indoor unit is dynamically adjusted based on the enthalpy boundary value of the supply air of the indoor unit, which can simultaneously meet the temperature and humidity requirements of the air conditioning system, taking into account both the energy efficiency and comfort of the air conditioning system.
[0034] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the heat exchange capacity value of the indoor unit is obtained, including: S201, obtain the system operating parameters of the indoor unit, including the indoor heat exchanger condensing pressure, indoor heat exchanger evaporating pressure, indoor heat exchanger outlet temperature, compressor return gas temperature, compressor discharge temperature, compressor discharge pressure, compressor return gas pressure, and compressor frequency.
[0035] It is understood that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the indoor heat exchanger condensing pressure Pc, indoor heat exchanger evaporating pressure Pe, indoor heat exchanger outlet temperature T3L, compressor return gas temperature Th, compressor discharge temperature T5, compressor discharge saturation temperature Tc, compressor return gas saturation temperature Te, and compressor frequency Fxn are obtained by temperature sensors or pressure sensors arranged at corresponding positions of the indoor unit.
[0036] S202 uses the system operating parameters as input parameters for the equipment capacity model to obtain the heat exchange capacity value of the indoor unit. The heat exchange capacity value is the product of the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger and the refrigerant flow rate of the heat exchanger.
[0037] It is understood that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the heat exchange capacity value Q of the indoor unit, i.e. the cooling capacity of the indoor unit, is calculated by multiplying the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger by the refrigerant flow rate of the heat exchanger.
[0038] The following explains the calculation process for heat exchange capacity values based on the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger and the refrigerant flow rate of the heat exchanger. enthalpy difference between heat exchanger inlet and outlet It can be calculated in the following way: In cooling mode, the indoor heat exchanger is an evaporator, meaning the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger... Let t be the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the evaporator. At this point, it is assumed that the enthalpy of the refrigerant remains constant during the expansion process. Therefore, the enthalpy at the inlet of the evaporator is equal to the enthalpy at the outlet of the outdoor heat exchanger (i.e., the condenser). Given the type of refrigerant and that the refrigerant is in a subcooled state, the enthalpy at the outlet of the condenser (i.e., the enthalpy at the inlet of the heat exchanger) can be calculated based on the condensing pressure Pc and the outlet temperature T3L of the indoor heat exchanger. Meanwhile, the outlet of the evaporator is in a superheated state. The enthalpy at the outlet of the evaporator (i.e., the enthalpy at the outlet of the heat exchanger) can be calculated based on the return gas temperature Th (or return gas superheat SH) and the evaporating pressure Pe of the indoor heat exchanger. Thus, the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the evaporator can be calculated.
[0039] Furthermore, the refrigerant flow rate of the heat exchanger can be calculated in the following way: The refrigerant flow rate of the heat exchanger can be expressed as a function of the compressor discharge saturation temperature Tc and the compressor return gas saturation temperature Te. For example: the refrigerant flow rate Gr_comp = (A1 + A2 * Te + A3 * Tc + A4 * Te^2 + A5 * Te * Tc + A6 * Tc^2) * k, or Gr_comp = (A1 + A2 * Te + A3 * Tc + A4 * Te^2 + A5 * Te * Tc + A6 * Tc^2 + A7 * Te^3 + A8 * Te^2 * Tc + A9 * Te * Tc^2 + A10 * Tc^3) * k, where A1 to A10 are coefficients, with different coefficients corresponding to different compressor frequencies, and k is a function that corrects the compressor return gas temperature to be related to the return gas temperature. The higher the return gas temperature, the smaller k is.
[0040] Therefore, by controlling the enthalpy difference between the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger and refrigerant flow rate of heat exchanger As a device capability model By inputting the parameters, the heat exchange capacity of the indoor unit can be calculated. .

[0043] S302 uses the return air temperature and comfort humidity boundary values as input parameters for the return air state model to obtain the return air enthalpy boundary values of the indoor unit. The return air enthalpy boundary values include the upper limit and lower limit of the return air enthalpy value, both of which are the sum of the sensible heat of dry air and the latent heat of water vapor.

[0049] It is understood that, in this embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of heat exchange capacity to air volume is used to characterize the heat exchanged per unit volume of air when it flows through the heat exchange device.
[0050] S402, using the ratio and return air enthalpy boundary value as input parameters of the supply air state model, obtains the supply air enthalpy boundary value of the indoor unit. The supply air enthalpy boundary value includes the upper limit and lower limit of the supply air enthalpy value. The upper limit of the supply air enthalpy value is the difference between the upper limit of the return air enthalpy value and the ratio, and the lower limit of the supply air enthalpy value is the difference between the lower limit of the return air enthalpy value and the ratio.

Similarly, the heat transfer capacity value can be used as the input parameter. Lower limit of return air enthalpy (Hinmin) and supply air volume As input parameters for the air supply state model, the lower limit of the air supply enthalpy, Houtmin = Hinmin - Q / ma, can be calculated using the above formula.
[0053] Optionally, different fan speeds correspond to different air volumes. By obtaining the fan speed setting of the indoor unit, the air volume delivered by the indoor unit can be determined. .
[0054] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, adjusting the evaporator temperature of the air conditioning system includes: S501 obtains the preset air supply humidity and duct heat transfer temperature difference of the indoor unit.
[0055] It is understood that in this embodiment of the present invention, the preset air supply humidity can be 95%, and the pipe heat transfer temperature difference X℃ can be obtained by querying the indoor unit pipe diameter configuration.
