Air conditioner and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of air conditioners and in particular relates to an air conditioner and a control method thereof. The invention aims to solve the problem that a set temperature of an existing air conditioner cannot be changed in terms of change of an external using environment. Therefore, the control method provided by the invention comprises the following steps of acquiring an operating mode of the air conditioner; acquiring the quantity of human bodies indoors; and determining the set temperature of the air conditioner according to the operating mode of the air conditioner and the quantity of human bodies indoors. As when the quantity of human bodies indoors is different, the caloric value or the cooling capacity value needed to achieve a user predicted sensible temperature is different too. In particular, when the amplitude of variation of the quantity of human bodies indoors is relatively large, the caloric value or the cooling capacity value needed byindoor heat exchange is to change to a relatively large extent. The set temperature of the air conditioner provided by the invention can change correspondingly according to different heat exchange demands and change of the quantity of human bodies, so that it is ensured that users can experience a comfortable sensible temperature all the time, and therefore, the user experience is further improvedeffectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of air conditioners, and in particular relates to an air conditioner and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people have also put forward higher and higher requirements for the living environment. In order to maintain a comfortable ambient temperature, air conditioners have become an essential device in people's lives. In recent years, although the air conditioner technology has been developed to a very mature stage, there are still some areas to be improved in the existing air conditioners. For example, the set temperature of the existing air conditioner is directly input by the user, and the air conditioner will always use the set temperature as the target temperature for heat exchange during the operation; however, the application of the same air conditioner in different time periods The specific situation in the scene is ...
