Specifically, determining the number of open groups of the outdoor unit includes: acquiring operation parameters of an air conditioning unit, and determining the required group number of the outdoor unit according to the operation parameters; detecting outdoor environment parameters, and judging whether the outdoor environment reaches a frosting state according to the outdoor environment parameters; and determining the number of the opening groups of the outdoor unit according to the judging result and the number of the demand groups. Whether the frosting working condition is reached or not is firstly judged according to the real-time environment temperature, so that the number of the outdoor units is controlled, and the environment condition can be fully utilized to bring the unit capacity into play to the maximum.

The first preset value is selectable by 1, so that a group of outdoor units can normally participate in the heating mode operation all the time, and defrosting and indoor requirements are met at the same time.
Optionally, the outdoor environment parameters include at least: outdoor temperature, outdoor humidity; judging whether the outdoor environment reaches a frosting state according to the outdoor environment parameters, including: calculating dew point temperature according to the outdoor temperature and the outdoor humidity; and when the difference between the dew point temperature and the outdoor temperature is smaller than the preset temperature difference and the outdoor humidity is larger than the preset humidity, determining that the outdoor environment reaches a frosting state.

When an unopened outdoor unit exists, determining that a defrosting mode is a natural defrosting mode, wherein in the natural defrosting mode, idle outdoor units perform natural defrosting in turn, a compressor of the outdoor unit performing natural defrosting is stopped, and a fan keeps running; and when the outdoor unit which is not started does not exist, determining that the defrosting mode is a forced defrosting mode.
Monitoring whether the unit receives a defrosting signal or not, if not, keeping the unit running unchanged, and monitoring whether the unit has the defrosting signal or not again after a certain time (default 5 min) is kept; synchronously monitoring outdoor environment temperature, judging whether the outdoor temperature is greater than a set value 2 ℃ (default 2 ℃ and is actually adjustable) if a defrosting signal exists, judging whether an available idle outdoor unit exists if the outdoor temperature is more than 2 ℃, and starting a natural defrosting mode if the idle outdoor unit exists: and opening an idle valve group and an interlocking unit thereof, closing compressors of the 1 valve group requiring defrosting and the unit thereof, keeping a unit fan to continuously run, monitoring whether the defrosting of the unit corresponding to the closed valve group requiring defrosting is finished every 5min (actually adjustable), re-monitoring defrosting signals if the defrosting is finished, and continuing to naturally defrost if the defrosting is not finished. If the outdoor temperature is higher than 2 ℃ and no usable idle outdoor unit exists or the outdoor temperature is lower than 2 ℃, the system starts a forced defrosting mode, the units needing to be defrosted start the forced defrosting mode in turn, after every 5min (actually adjustable), whether all the units corresponding to the valve group are defrosted is detected, if so, whether defrosting signals exist is monitored again, and if not, defrosting is continued until defrosting is completed. The defrosting control is an energy-saving mode, controls the automatic switching between high-efficiency operation modes, combines natural defrosting for control, can effectively reduce the energy consumption of unit defrosting and the operation of a water pump, and further improves the comprehensive operation energy efficiency of the system.
The air source heat pump system is designed in groups through the valve groups, so that the group of units corresponding to each valve group can be turned on in turn, when outdoor environment in winter reaches a frosting working condition and outdoor temperature meets a certain condition, the valve groups are turned off in turn, a host machine of the air source heat pump system is assisted by an outdoor natural heat source and a fan to complete a natural defrosting process, compared with a conventional system, a natural defrosting mode can be increased, air heat is utilized for defrosting, energy consumption of the units and a water pump in defrosting is saved, and energy waste loss is reduced.

The above process defaults to 10min for one cycle and back and forth. According to the low-frequency operation control, all units are regulated according to the same low frequency, so that the COP of the units can be obviously improved, the mode in the prior art is to carry out loading and unloading after full loading, compared with the prior art, the scheme of the invention can ensure that most of the air source heat pump units in the system are operated in the low frequency band, and aiming at the frequency conversion unit, the COP of the units is high in a partial load state, the frosting probability is small during heating working conditions, the heating time of the units is prolonged, meanwhile, when the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit is in the frosting state, the frequency of the compressor and the circulating water pump is regulated, different amplitude reductions can cause the reduction of the frost layers of the heat exchanger of the outdoor unit to different degrees, and the larger amplitude reduction is, and the frosting inhibition effect is more obvious.
The invention solves the problem of large fluctuation of the ring temperature in the frosting room caused by an air source heat pump system in winter from the two dimensions of a system control strategy and system optimization under the condition of not modifying the configuration of a unit. The low-frequency operation of the unit is controlled, so that the frost formation probability of the unit in winter is effectively reduced, the heating time of the unit is prolonged, the energy efficiency of the system is improved, and the useless power consumption of defrosting and the discomfort caused by indoor temperature fluctuation are reduced. Through system optimization, a natural defrosting mode is realized, the unit is replaced by natural defrosting to forcedly defrost, and the defrosting power consumption of the unit and the influence on room temperature are reduced.
In a preferred embodiment 1 of the present invention, another method for controlling defrosting of an air conditioning unit is provided, specifically, fig. 3 shows an alternative flowchart of the method, and as shown in fig. 3, the method includes the following steps S301 to S320:
s301, starting up a system;
s302, a normal heating mode;

s306, opening an idle valve group;
s307, keeping the running state of the system unchanged;
s308, judging T Outer part And T is Dew If the temperature difference is smaller than the set temperature and the relative humidity is larger than the set value, S309 is entered, otherwise S310 is entered;
s309: openable valve group number = total valve group number-1;
s310. number of openable valve groups = total number of required valve groups;
s311, periodically monitoring the system state;
s312, defrosting mode;
s313, monitoring a defrosting signal;
s314, if the outdoor temperature is greater than the set value, entering S306, otherwise entering S315;
s315, a valve group to be defrosted turns on a forced defrosting mode;
s316, judging whether the system has an idle valve group, if so, entering S317, otherwise, entering S316;
s317, 1 idle valve group is opened;
s318, closing 1 frosted valve group and opening a natural defrosting mode;
s319, monitoring whether defrosting of the valve group is finished, if yes, entering S313, otherwise entering S320;
and S320, continuing defrosting until the defrosting is finished.
After the system is started, 1 valve group is started, all the corresponding controlled machine groups are started, the running frequency of the compressor of the machine group is monitored when the starting of the standby group is completed and normal running is completed, whether the frequency is lower than the minimum limiting frequency (default 25 HZ), if the frequency is lower than 25HZ, the system is kept unchanged, if the frequency is higher than 25HZ, whether all the openable valve groups are started, if not, one of the idle valve groups and all the machine groups responsible for the idle valve groups are started, and if all the openable valve groups are started, the system keeps unchanged in the original running mode. The above process defaults to 10min for one cycle and back and forth.
Monitoring outdoor temperature T during operation Outer part And relative humidity phi, and calculating the air dew point temperature T according to the two values Dew Judging whether the outdoor air environment reaches a state of possible frosting: i.e. T Outer part And T is Dew The temperature difference of the air inlet and outlet heat exchange temperature difference of the fin side of the default unit is 4 ℃ and the relative humidity phi is more than 75% of the set value (default 75% and actual adjustable). If the frosting condition is reached, in order to ensure that a group of valve groups can normally operate all the time in the natural defrosting process of the system, the number of the valve groups which can be opened by the system=the total valve group number-1; if the frosting condition is not reached, the system may open valve group number = total required valve group number.
Monitoring whether the unit has a defrosting signal or not, if not, keeping the unit running unchanged, and monitoring whether the unit has the defrosting signal or not again after a certain time (default 5 min) is kept; synchronously monitoring outdoor environment temperature, judging whether the outdoor temperature is greater than a set value of 2 ℃ (default of 2 ℃ and actual adjustment) if a defrosting signal exists, judging whether an available idle valve bank exists if the outdoor temperature is greater than 2 ℃, and starting a natural defrosting mode if the idle valve bank exists: and opening an idle valve group and an interlocking unit thereof, closing compressors of the 1 valve group requiring defrosting and the unit thereof, keeping a unit fan to continuously run, monitoring whether the defrosting of the unit corresponding to the closed valve group requiring defrosting is finished every 5min (actually adjustable), re-monitoring defrosting signals if the defrosting is finished, and continuing to naturally defrost if the defrosting is not finished. If the outdoor temperature is higher than 2 ℃ and no idle valve bank is available or the outdoor temperature is lower than 2 ℃, the system starts a forced defrosting mode, the units needing to be defrosted start the forced defrosting mode in turn, whether all the units corresponding to the valve bank are defrosted is detected after every 5min (actually adjustable), if yes, whether defrosting signals exist is monitored again, and if not, defrosting is continued until defrosting is completed.
The invention utilizes the redundant units to integrally reduce the frequency of the variable-frequency air source heat pump unit, thereby reducing the frosting degree of the unit, and the larger the reduced amplitude is, the better the frost inhibiting effect is, and the more the heating time is increased. The air source heat pump system is designed in groups through the valve groups, so that the group of units corresponding to each valve group can be turned on in turn, when outdoor environment in winter reaches frosting working conditions and outdoor temperature meets certain conditions, the valve groups are turned off in turn, and a host machine of the air source heat pump system is assisted by an outdoor natural heat source and a fan to complete a natural frosting process, so that the water outlet temperature of the system is not influenced, the indoor temperature is not suddenly lowered, and the comfort level of a human body is not influenced. And the high-efficiency operation modes are controlled to be automatically switched, and the natural defrosting is combined to control, so that the comprehensive operation energy efficiency of the system is further improved.
