The invention belongs to the technical field of air conditioners, and discloses a
noise control method and device, an air conditioner and a
heat pump. The
noise control method is used for
noise control in the operation process of the air conditioner and comprises the steps that S1, noise collection and analysis are conducted, specifically,
sound quality parameters of noise are collected and analyzed, and the
sound quality parameters comprise the
loudness L1, the sharpness S1, the roughness R1 and the fluctuation intensity F1; s2, air conditioner operation
state parameter collection, wherein the compressor frequency f, the fan rotating speed n and the
electronic expansion valve opening degree in the noise state are collected; s3, setting noise reference parameters including
loudness Ljz, sharpness Sjz, roughness Rjz and fluctuation intensity Fjz; and S4, noise comparison and air conditioner operation state adjustment are conducted, specifically, the compressor frequency f, the
electronic expansion valve opening degree and the fan rotating speed n are adjusted according to the noise comparison result, and the step S1 is executed after adjustment is completed. The
noise control method can control the operation state of the air conditioner, so that the operation noise is reduced, the
sound quality of a product is improved, and the use comfort of the air conditioner is improved.
