Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, for the prediction of users' water consumption behavior, it is usually only possible to predict the water consumption time period, not the specific water consumption time point, which makes the prediction inaccurate. It is a lot of trouble; moreover, at present, for the storage and data processing of water data, the controller ROM and memory of the water heater itself are generally used in the industry, which are limited by the storage capacity of the storage unit and can only analyze the data within a period of time (such as 21 days, 49 days, etc.), limited by the processing capacity of the processing unit, too complex algorithms cannot be deployed, and the accuracy is further reduced; moreover, the current prediction algorithms are usually relatively fixed, cannot be automatically repaired, and have poor flexibility. Not suitable for every user

Embodiment 1

[0045] A method for water heaters to predict users' water consumption behavior. The data processing unit analyzes the user's water consumption data before the current time to establish a water consumption model, predicts the next water consumption period after the current time according to the water consumption model, and counts the N days before the current time. The water consumption data in the above water consumption period can be used to predict the specific water consumption time point of the user in the next water consumption period.

[0046] At present, the prediction of users' water consumption behavior is often calculated using the machine's own controller, which can only predict the water consumption period, but not the specific time point, which makes the prediction error larger. If the water consumption period is longer, the user may use When hot water is used, the water heater is not yet heated, which brings inconvenience to the use of the user.

[0047] The pres...

Embodiment 2

[0090] Such as figure 2 As shown, this embodiment is a specific solution to Embodiment 1, a method for predicting user water consumption behavior of a water heater, including the following steps:

[0091]The data processing unit analyzes all the water consumption data of the user before the current time to establish a water consumption model X, X=αA+βB+λc, and predicts the next water consumption period after the current time according to the water consumption model X to be t a -t b ;

[0092] The data processing unit presets the weight ratio W corresponding to each day of the N days before the current time i (1≤i≤N, i is a positive integer);

[0093] Count the N days before the current time in the water consumption period t a -t b The specific water use time point t in i and the duration of water use S i (1≤i≤N, i is a positive integer), calculate the water use time point t of each day in the previous N days i with t a The difference Δt i = t i -t a , and then cal...

Embodiment 3

[0106] This embodiment is a water heater adopting the method for predicting the user's water consumption behavior described in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2. It includes a data processing unit and a storage unit. The storage unit stores the user's water consumption data at all times. The user's water consumption data at all times establishes a water consumption model X, and predicts the next water consumption period based on the water consumption model X.

[0107] Further, the storage unit is set on the cloud storage server, which stores all the water consumption data of the user, and the processing unit uses the modeling tool to establish the water consumption model X, and predicts the next water consumption period according to the water consumption model X.

[0108] Alternatively, the storage unit is a local storage unit provided on the household appliance.

[0109] At present, the prediction of the user's water consumption behavior is usually calculated using the controller...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of water heaters, and particularly relates to a method for predicting water using behavior of users through a water heater and the water heater. According to the method, a data processing unit is used for analyzing water using data of the user before the current time to establish a water using model, the next water using period after the current time is predictedaccording to the water using model, statistics on the water using data in the next water using period for N days before the current time is conducted, and specific water using time points of the userin the next water using period are predicted; the water using period is determined firstly, the statistics on the water using data of the previous N days is conducted, finally the next specific waterusing time points are predicted, and therefore the predication accuracy of the method is higher; and the next specific water using time points are calculated by adopting a weighted average method, the weight ratio is adjusted, so that the predicted specific water time points are closer to the reality. According to the method, the water using data are continuously updated, the water using model iscontinuously corrected, the calculation of the water using period is more accurate and intelligent, and therefore the true automatic control is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of water heaters, and in particular relates to a water heater method for predicting user water use behavior and the water heater. Background technique [0002] A water heater refers to a device that raises the temperature of cold water into hot water within a certain period of time through various physical principles. According to different principles, it can be divided into electric water heaters, gas water heaters, solar water heaters, magnetic energy water heaters, air energy water heaters, heating water heaters, etc. [0003] The water heater includes a part for making cold air and a part for making hot water. In fact, these two parts are closely linked, inseparable, and must work at the same time. That is, while making hot water, cool another part. [0004] At present, for the prediction of users' water consumption behavior, it is usually only possible to predict the water consumption time period, not the spec...
