The present application provides a control method, device and equipment for
defrosting a
heat pump air conditioner. In the method, the ambient temperature, the frosting time of the
evaporator, the
air humidity, the
evaporation temperature, the fin temperature of the
evaporator, and the suction pressure of the compressor are obtained; the
temperature difference between the two ends of the
evaporator is determined according to the ambient temperature and the fin temperature; the thickness of the
frost layer is calculated according to the
temperature difference between the two ends of the evaporator, the frosting time and the
air humidity; based on the thickness of the
frost layer, the ambient temperature, the fin temperature, the
evaporation temperature and the suction pressure of the compressor, it is judged whether the
defrosting entry conditions are met; if the
defrosting entry conditions are met, the
heat pump air conditioner is controlled to enter the defrosting operation, and the defrosting time of the defrosting operation is obtained; when the
frost layer thickness and / or the defrosting time reach the defrosting exit conditions, the defrosting operation is exited. The above method can more accurately determine the timing of the defrosting operation by determining the thickness of the frost layer, and combining the frost
layer thickness and more data, effectively avoiding the situation of mistaken defrosting.
