Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional air conditioner energy-saving methods based on operating frequency adjustments lead to fluctuations in cooling capacity and overheating due to their backward feedback principle, resulting in poor user experience and ineffective energy savings.
Innovation Solution
A predictive energy efficiency and capacity model is constructed to adjust operating parameters before overheating or frequency fluctuations occur, determining a target parameter combination that meets energy efficiency and capacity targets, thereby avoiding overheating and stabilizing temperature.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Use of energy by moving object
If traditional backward feedback control based on Genetic Algorithm is used to adjust operating frequency for energy saving, then energy consumption is reduced, but cooling capacity fluctuates and overheating occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by using a predictive model to forecast future cooling capacity and energy efficiency before actually adjusting operating parameters. The system predicts the outcomes of potential parameter adjustments and selects the optimal adjustment in advance, rather than reacting after overheating or capacity fluctuation occurs. This proactive approach prevents cooling capacity instability and overheating while achieving energy savings.
2Use of energy by moving object
If operating frequency is adjusted backwardly based on detected temperature deviations, then energy saving is achieved, but temperature control precision deteriorates and overheating occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements an improved feedback mechanism where the predictive model continuously monitors current operating parameters and environmental conditions, forecasts future system state, and adjusts operating parameters proactively to maintain temperature within the target range. This closed-loop predictive feedback system prevents temperature deviations before they occur, achieving both energy savings and precise temperature control.
3Device complexity
If reactive control based on detected temperature deviations is used, then system complexity is reduced, but response time to prevent overheating increases
Solution Approach 1:
The predictive model performs preliminary calculations to forecast future cooling capacity and energy efficiency outcomes before parameter adjustments are needed. By predicting the consequences of potential operating parameter changes in advance, the system can proactively select and apply optimal adjustments, preventing overheating before it occurs rather than reacting after temperature deviations are detected.
