The present disclosure relates to an air conditioner defrosting control method and device, a storage medium and an air conditioner.
When an air conditioner is in heating operation, with the decrease of an ambient temperature, a pressure on a low pressure side of the system decreases, as a result an evaporating temperature of a refrigerant decreases, and the heat that the outdoor unit heat exchanger of the air conditioner can absorb from the environment decreases accordingly. When the temperature of the finned heat exchanger is lower than 0° C., the water vapor in the air will precipitate on the surface of the finned heat exchanger in the form of frost when it encounters the finned heat exchanger. Frosting on the fins will increase the heat exchange resistance, reduce the air circulation area, and eventually lead to a decrease in the heating capacity of the air conditioning unit.

In the related art, according to an air conditioner defrosting control method known by the inventors of the present disclosure, it is determined whether an air conditioner defrosting condition is met through the detection of a pipe temperature of the outdoor unit, and defrosting is conducted when the defrosting condition is met, during which a throttling component is fixed at a suitable opening degree for defrosting. This defrosting method can achieve better defrosting effect at certain ambient temperatures, but for different ambient temperatures, it cannot adapt to changes in the ambient temperature, and the defrosting effect varies greatly. When the ambient temperature is low or in the case of cumulative defrosting, there may be problems such as incomplete defrosting or even compressor damage due to liquid floodback during the defrosting process.
An purpose of the present disclosure is to provide an air conditioner defrosting control method, device, storage medium and air conditioner, so as to solve the problem that the above defrosting method cannot adapt to changes in ambient temperature, and the defrosting effect varies greatly under different ambient temperatures.
As shown in
In step S110, a target discharge temperature of a compressor and an initial opening degree of a throttle device are set when an air conditioner performs defrosting according to an outdoor ambient temperature when the air conditioner meets a defrosting condition and enters a defrosting mode.
In some embodiments, the outdoor ambient temperature corresponds to a different target discharge temperature of the compressor and a different initial opening degree of the throttle device when the outdoor ambient temperature is in a different temperature range. For example, the target discharge temperature of the compressor and the initial opening degree of the throttle device are set when the air conditioner performs defrosting according to a temperature range of at least two preset temperature ranges in which the outdoor ambient temperature is located.
In step S120, a defrosting operation of the air conditioner is controlled according to the set target discharge temperature of the compressor and the set initial opening degree of the throttle device.
As shown in
In step S121, the throttle device of the air conditioner is controlled to open to the initial opening degree.
For example, the initial opening degree (X, Y, Z) of the throttle device is set when the air conditioner performs defrosting according to a temperature range of at least two preset temperature ranges (B ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient, A ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient≤B ° C., and Toutdoor-ambient≤A ° C.) in which the outdoor ambient temperature is located. When entering the defrosting mode, after a four-way valve is reversed, an opening degree of an electronic expansion valve is controlled to open to the initial opening degree. For example, the initial opening degree is in a range from 60 to 480.
In step S122, the throttle device is controlled to increase an opening degree of the throttle device by a first preset opening degree at intervals of a second preset time after a first preset time elapses. For example, the first preset time is in a range from 10 seconds to 60 seconds. For another example, the second preset time is in a range from 20 seconds to 60 seconds. For another example, the first preset opening degree is in a range from 10 to 100.
For example, after the opening degree of the throttle device is controlled to the set initial opening degree for a first preset time, the opening degree of the throttle device is increased with the second preset time as a cycle. In each cycle, the throttle device is controlled to increase the opening degree by the first preset opening degree. For example, the throttle device is an electronic expansion valve, and the first preset opening degree is m steps. After the opening degree of the throttle device is controlled to open to the initial opening degree t seconds, the opening degree of the throttle device is increased at a rate of m steps per cycle. A maximum opening degree that can be achieved is a sum of the initial opening degree and a second preset opening degree, that is, (X, Y or Z)+M. By periodically increasing the opening degree of the throttle device, refrigerant can continuously flow into a condenser of an outdoor unit to ensure complete defrosting.
In step S123, the opening degree of the throttle device is adjusted according to a discharge temperature of the compressor and the target discharge temperature after the opening degree of the throttle device is increased to a sum of the initial opening degree and a second preset opening degree. For example, the second preset opening degree is in a range from 60 to 480.
For example, after the opening degree of the throttle device is increased to the sum of the initial opening degree and the second preset opening degree, the throttle device maintains a current opening degree when the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than a difference between the target discharge temperature and a preset temperature and less than a sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature. The throttle device is controlled to increase the opening degree of the throttle device by a third preset opening degree at intervals of a third preset time until the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than the difference between the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature and less than the sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature when the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than the sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature. For example, a maximum amount of opening degree that can be cumulatively increased is a fourth preset opening degree. The throttle device is controlled to decrease the opening degree of the throttle device by the third preset opening degree at intervals of the third preset time until the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than the difference between the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature and less than the sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature when the discharge temperature of the compressor is less than the difference between the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature. For example, a maximum amount of opening degree that can be cumulatively decreased is a fifth preset opening degree.
For example, the third preset time is in a range from 10 seconds to 60 seconds. For another example, the third preset opening degree is in a range from 10 to 100, the fourth preset opening degree is in a range from 10 to 200, and the fifth preset opening degree is in a range from 10 to 200.
The preset temperature is a correction value of a defrosting discharge temperature, which can ensure that the discharge temperature is within a reasonable range. For example, the preset temperature is in a range from 0° C. to 10° C. For example, taking Toutdoor-ambient≤A ° C. as an example, the target discharge temperature of the compressor is T1, the preset temperature is 5° C., the discharge temperature of the compressor is Tdischarge, and the third preset opening degree is n steps, with the third preset time as a cycle, if T1−5° C.≤Tdischarge≤T1+5° C., the current opening degree of the throttle device is kept unchanged; if Tdischarge>T1+5° C., the opening degree is increased at a rate of n steps/cycle until T1−5° C.≤Tdischarge≤T1+5° C. is satisfied, wherein D steps (the fourth preset opening degree) can be increased at most; if Tdischarge<T1−5° C., the opening degree is decreased at a rate of n steps/cycle until T1−5° C.≤Tdischarge≤T1+5° C. is satisfied, wherein E (the fifth preset opening degree) steps can be decreased at most.
In step S130, the air conditioner is controlled to exit the defrosting mode when a temperature of an outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner reaches a set temperature value.
For example, if the set temperature value is T, when the pipe temperature of the outdoor unit heat exchanger reaches the set value T, the air conditioner exits the defrosting mode. For example, the set temperature value is in a range from 0° C. to 15° C.
According to the above embodiment of the present disclosure, when the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition and enters the defrosting mode, a target discharge temperature of a compressor and an initial opening degree of a throttle device for defrosting the air conditioner are set according to the outdoor ambient temperature, and the defrosting operation of the air conditioner is controlled according to the set target discharge temperature and the set initial opening degree of the throttle device, so that different defrosting controls can be adopted according to different ambient temperatures, which can achieve better defrosting effects at different ambient temperatures, reduce the problem of liquid refrigerant floodback that may occur when the ambient temperature is low or in the case of cumulative defrosting, and thereby the reliability of the system operation can be increased.
According to the above embodiments of the present disclosure, during the defrosting process of the air conditioner, a corresponding target discharge temperature of the compressor and a corresponding initial opening degree of the throttle device are set according to the outdoor ambient temperature, and the opening degree of the throttle device is adjusted according to the target discharge temperature. The defrosting effect of an air conditioner mainly depends on two factors, discharge temperature and refrigerant flow. A high discharge temperature is good for defrosting, but may cause the problem of an insufficient refrigerant flow. A low discharge temperature is not conducive to defrosting, but can make the refrigerant flow relatively large. An adjustment can be made according to the target discharge temperature to meet an optimum match between the discharge temperature and the refrigerant flow, thereby achieving the best defrosting effect.
As shown in
In step S102, it is determined whether the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition according to the outdoor ambient temperature, the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner, and a heating operation time of the air conditioner.
In some embodiments, the defrosting condition comprises: the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger being less than or equal to a temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and a preset temperature difference threshold (that is, a temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger being greater than or equal to the preset temperature difference threshold), and the heating operation time of the air conditioner being greater than a preset operation time. That is to say, in the heating operation of the air conditioner, it is determined whether the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to the temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and the preset temperature difference threshold (that is, whether the temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is greater than or equal to the preset temperature difference threshold), and whether the heating operation time of the air conditioner is greater than the preset operation time. If it is determined that the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to the temperature difference (that is, the temperature difference is greater than or equal to the preset temperature difference threshold), and the heating operation time is greater than the preset operation time, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition.
Herein, the outdoor ambient temperature corresponds to a different preset temperature difference threshold and a different preset operation time when the outdoor ambient temperature is in a different temperature range. That is to say, when determining whether the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition, first of all, a temperature range of at least two preset temperature ranges where the outdoor ambient temperature is located is determined, and then it is determined whether the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to a temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and a preset temperature difference threshold corresponding to the temperature range where the outdoor ambient temperature is located, and whether the heating operation time is greater than a preset operation time corresponding to the temperature range where the outdoor ambient temperature is located. In some embodiments the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is a pipe temperature Toutdoor-pipe of the outdoor heat exchanger.
For example, referring to table 1, three continuous temperature ranges, B ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient, A ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient≤B ° C., and Toutdoor-ambient≤A ° C., are preset, which correspond to three different temperature difference thresholds Tdifference1, Tdifference2 and Tdifference3, and three different preset operation times t1, t2, and t3, respectively.
For example, the preset temperature difference thresholds Tdifference1, Tdifference2 and Tdifference3 each are in a range from 0° C. to 15° C.; the preset operation times t1, t2 and t3 each are in a range from 1 min (minute) to 5 min.
As shown in
In step S140, an opening degree of the throttle device is adjusted according to the outdoor ambient temperature, an indoor ambient temperature, and an operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner.
That is to say, after exiting the defrosting mode, initialization adjustment is performed for the throttle device such as an electronic expansion valve, and then the air conditioner is controlled to operate according to a normal heating operation logic. For example, the initial opening degree of the throttle device after the air conditioner exits the defrosting mode can be determined using the following formula:
P=a*F+b*T
outdoor-ambient
+cT
indoor-ambient
+d
wherein F is the operating frequency of the compressor, a is a correction coefficient for the operating frequency of the compressor, Toutdoor-ambient is the outdoor ambient temperature, b is a correction coefficient for the outdoor ambient temperature, Tindoor-ambient is the indoor ambient temperature, c is a correction coefficient for the indoor ambient temperature, and d is a correction constant. The above correction coefficient a for the operating frequency of the compressor, the correction coefficient b for the outdoor ambient temperature, the correction coefficient c for the indoor ambient temperature and the correction constant d can be obtained through an experiment.
In the above embodiments, after the air conditioner exits the defrosting mode, the opening degree of the throttle device is adjusted according to the outdoor ambient temperature, the indoor ambient temperature, and the operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner. The opening degree of the throttle device is corrected according to the indoor ambient temperature, the outdoor ambient temperature, and the operating frequency of the compressor to satisfy the establishment of the initial discharge temperature and avoid reliability problems such as liquid floodback.
The setting unit 110 is configured to set a target discharge temperature of a compressor and an initial opening degree of a throttle device when an air conditioner performs defrosting according to an outdoor ambient temperature when the air conditioner meets a defrosting condition and enters a defrosting mode.
In some embodiments, the outdoor ambient temperature corresponds to a different target discharge temperature of the compressor and a different initial opening degree of the throttle device when the outdoor ambient temperature is in a different temperature range. For example, the setting unit 110 set the target discharge temperature of the compressor and the initial opening degree of the throttle device when the air conditioner performs defrosting according to a temperature range of at least two preset temperature ranges in which the outdoor ambient temperature is located.
The control unit 120 is configured to control a defrosting operation of the air conditioner according to the set target discharge temperature of the compressor and the set initial opening degree of the throttle device, and control the air conditioner to exit the defrosting mode when a temperature of an outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner reaches a set temperature value.
In some embodiments, controlling, by the control unit 120, the defrosting operation of the air conditioner according to the set target discharge temperature of the compressor and the set initial opening degree of the throttle device comprises: controlling the throttle device of the air conditioner to open to the initial opening degree; controlling the throttle device to increase an opening degree of the throttle device by a first preset opening degree at intervals of a second preset time after a first preset time elapses; and adjusting the opening degree of the throttle device according to a discharge temperature of the compressor and the target discharge temperature after the opening degree of the throttle device is increased to a sum of the initial opening degree and a second preset opening degree.
For example, the initial opening degree (X, Y, Z) of the throttle device is set when the air conditioner performs defrosting according to a temperature range of at least two preset temperature ranges (B ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient, A ° C.≤Toutdoor-ambient B ° C., and Toutdoor-ambient≤A ° C.) in which the outdoor ambient temperature is located. When entering the defrosting mode, after a four-way valve is reversed, the control unit 120 controls an opening degree of an electronic expansion valve to open to the initial opening degree.
After the opening degree of the throttle device is controlled to the set initial opening degree for a first preset time, the control unit 120 increases the opening degree of the throttle device with the second preset time as a cycle. In each cycle, the throttle device is controlled to increase the opening degree by the first preset opening degree. For example, the throttle device is an electronic expansion valve, and the first preset opening degree is m steps. After the opening degree of the throttle device is controlled to open to the initial opening degree t seconds, the opening degree of the throttle device is increased at a rate of m steps per cycle. A maximum opening degree that can be achieved is a sum of the initial opening degree and a second preset opening degree, that is, (X, Y or Z)+M. By periodically increasing the opening degree of the throttle device, refrigerant can continuously flow into a condenser of an outdoor unit to ensure complete defrosting.
In some embodiments, adjusting, by the control unit 120, the opening degree of the throttle device according to the discharge temperature of the compressor and the target discharge temperature comprises: controlling the throttle device to maintain a current opening degree when the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than a difference between the target discharge temperature and a preset temperature and less than a sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature; controlling the throttle device to increase the opening degree of the throttle device by a third preset opening degree at intervals of a third preset time until the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than the difference between the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature and less than the sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature when the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than the sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature; and controlling the throttle device to decrease the opening degree of the throttle device by the third preset opening degree at intervals of the third preset time until the discharge temperature of the compressor is greater than the difference between the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature and less than the sum of the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature when the discharge temperature of the compressor is less than the difference between the target discharge temperature and the preset temperature.
The preset temperature is a correction value of a defrosting discharge temperature, which can ensure that the discharge temperature is within a reasonable range. For example, taking Toutdoor-ambient≤A ° C. as an example, the target discharge temperature of the compressor is T1, the preset temperature is 5° C., the discharge temperature of the compressor is Tdischarger and the third preset opening degree is n steps, with the third preset time as a cycle, if T1−5° C.≤Tdischarge≤T1+5° C., the current opening degree of the throttle device is kept unchanged; if Tdischarge>T1+5° C., the opening degree is increased at a rate of n steps/cycle until T1−5° C.≤Tdischarge≤T1+5° C. is satisfied, wherein D steps (the fourth preset opening degree) can be increased at most; if Tdischarge<T1−5° C., the opening degree is decreased at a rate of n steps/cycle until T1−5° C.≤Tdischarge≤T1+5° C. is satisfied, wherein E (the fifth preset opening degree) steps can be decreased at most.
When the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner reaches a set temperature value, the control unit 120 controls the air conditioner to exit the defrosting mode. For example, if the set temperature is T, when the pipe temperature of the outdoor unit heat exchanger reaches the set value T, the air conditioner exits the defrosting mode.
According to the above embodiments of the present disclosure, when the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition and enters the defrosting mode, a target discharge temperature of a compressor and an initial opening degree of a throttle device for defrosting the air conditioner are set according to the outdoor ambient temperature, and the defrosting operation of the air conditioner is controlled according to the set target discharge temperature and the set initial opening degree of the throttle device, so that different defrosting controls can be adopted according to different ambient temperatures, which can achieve better defrosting effects at different ambient temperatures, reduce the problem of liquid refrigerant floodback that may occur when the ambient temperature is low or in the case of cumulative defrosting, and thereby the reliability of the system operation can be increased.
According to the above embodiments of the present disclosure, during the defrosting process of the air conditioner, a corresponding target discharge temperature of the compressor and a corresponding initial opening degree of the throttle device are set according to the outdoor ambient temperature, and the opening degree of the throttle device is adjusted according to the target discharge temperature. The defrosting effect of an air conditioner mainly depends on two factors, discharge temperature and refrigerant flow. A high discharge temperature is good for defrosting, but may cause the problem of an insufficient refrigerant flow. A low discharge temperature is not conducive to defrosting, but can make the refrigerant flow relatively large. An adjustment can be made according to the target discharge temperature to meet an optimum match between the discharge temperature and the refrigerant flow, thereby achieving the best defrosting effect.
The determining unit 102 is configured to determine whether the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition according to the outdoor ambient temperature, the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger of the air conditioner, and a heating operation time of the air conditioner.
In some embodiments, the defrosting condition comprises: the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger being less than or equal to a temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and a preset temperature difference threshold (that is, a temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger being greater than or equal to the preset temperature difference threshold), and the heating operation time of the air conditioner being greater than a preset operation time. That is to say, in the heating operation of the air conditioner, the determining unit 102 determines whether the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to the temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and the preset temperature difference threshold (that is, whether the temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is greater than or equal to the preset temperature difference threshold), and whether the heating operation time of the air conditioner is greater than the preset operation time. If it is determined that the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to the temperature difference (that is, the temperature difference is greater than or equal to the preset temperature difference threshold), and the heating operation time is greater than the preset operation time, it is determined that the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition.
Herein, the outdoor ambient temperature corresponds to a different preset temperature difference threshold and a different preset operation time when the outdoor ambient temperature is in a different temperature range. That is to say, when the determining unit 102 determines whether the air conditioner meets the defrosting condition, first of all, a temperature range of at least two preset temperature ranges where the outdoor ambient temperature is located is determined, and then it is determined whether the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is less than or equal to a temperature difference between the outdoor ambient temperature and a preset temperature difference threshold corresponding to the temperature range where the outdoor ambient temperature is located, and whether the heating operation time is greater than a preset operation time corresponding to the temperature range where the outdoor ambient temperature is located. In some embodiments, the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger is a pipe temperature Toutdoor-pipe of the outdoor heat exchanger.
For example, referring to table 1, three continuous temperature ranges, B ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient, A ° C.<Toutdoor-ambient≤B ° C., and Toutdoor-ambient≤A ° C., are preset, which correspond to three different temperature difference thresholds Tdifference1, Tdifference2 and Tdifference3, and three different preset operation times t1, t2, and t3, respectively.
The adjusting unit 140 is configured to adjust an opening degree of the throttle device according to the outdoor ambient temperature, an indoor ambient temperature, and an operating frequency of the compressor of the air conditioner after the air conditioner is controlled to exit the defrosting mode.
The following formula is used to determine the initial opening degree of the throttle device after the air conditioner exits the defrosting mode:
P=a*F+b*T
outdoor-ambient
+cT
indoor-ambient
+d
F is the operating frequency of the compressor, a is a correction coefficient for the operating frequency of the compressor, Toutdoor-ambient is the outdoor ambient temperature, b is a correction coefficient for the outdoor ambient temperature, Tindoor-ambient is the indoor ambient temperature, c is a correction coefficient for the indoor ambient temperature, and d is a correction constant. The above correction coefficient a for the operating frequency of the compressor, the correction coefficient b for the outdoor ambient temperature, the correction coefficient c for the indoor ambient temperature and the correction constant d can be obtained through an experiment.
The opening degree of the throttle device is corrected according to the indoor ambient temperature, the outdoor ambient temperature, and the operating frequency of the compressor to satisfy the establishment of the initial discharge temperature and avoid reliability problems such as liquid floodback.
