It should be noted that the heating device 15 may be configured to heat and evaporate the liquid refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator 14, and the arrangement and position of the heating device 15 may be various, for example, the heating device is disposed on the outer surface of the gas-liquid separator 14, or disposed inside the gas-liquid separator 14, or disposed on a pipeline at an inlet or an outlet of the gas-liquid separator 14, so as to avoid occupying an inner space of the gas-liquid separator 14 and reduce the amount of the liquid refrigerant stored in the gas-liquid separator 14, and the preferred embodiment is disposed outside the gas-liquid separator 14, or employs a heating wire, which is in an annular structure and is disposed on an inner wall of a cavity of the gas-liquid separator 14 to directly heat the refrigerant.
In order to further achieve a better heating effect, it is preferable that the heating device 15 is disposed at the bottom of the gas-liquid separator 14, since the heating device is covered outside the gas-liquid separator 14 and the liquid refrigerant is deposited at the bottom of the gas-liquid separator due to gravity.
The air conditioning system of this embodiment, through set up heating device on vapour and liquid separator 14 between indoor heat exchanger 13 and compressor 11, is in low temperature refrigeration state at the air conditioner, leads to the temperature of indoor heat exchanger pipeline to be less than preset the temperature, and when lasting the preset time, can be through opening heating device effectively improves indoor heat exchanger's evaporating temperature, can prevent indoor heat exchanger frosting effectively, guarantees the refrigeration effect of air conditioner.
Example 2

In order to separately control the separation of the liquid refrigerant and the heating of the liquid refrigerant, as shown in fig. 2, on the basis of the above embodiment, the gas-liquid separator 14 is divided into an upper space 141 and a lower space 142, the upper space 141 includes an inlet end, an exhaust end and a drainage end, the lower space includes a liquid inlet end, a first exhaust end and a second exhaust end, the inlet end of the upper space 141 is connected to the indoor heat exchanger 13, the drainage end of the upper space 141 is communicated with the liquid inlet end of the lower space 142 through a pipeline, the exhaust end of the upper space 141 is connected to the compressor 11, and the heating device 15 is wrapped in the lower space 142 of the gas-liquid separator and is used for heating the refrigerant in the lower space 142 of the gas-liquid separator; a first valve 17 is disposed on a pipeline between the liquid discharging end of the upper space 141 and the liquid inlet end of the lower space 142, and is configured to adjust a flow rate of the liquid refrigerant flowing from the upper space 141 into the lower space 142.
In order to control the pressure in the lower space 142 of the gas-liquid separator 14, as shown in fig. 2, in addition to the above embodiment, a pressure sensor 18 is further disposed in the lower space 142 of the gas-liquid separator 14 for detecting the pressure in the lower space 142 when the heating device 15 is operated, so that the liquid refrigerant may be rapidly evaporated into a gaseous state after the heating device is turned on, thereby increasing the pressure in the lower space 142 of the gas-liquid separator.
After the liquid refrigerant flows into the lower space 142 through the pipeline, the lower space 142 heats the refrigerant, if the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant is fast, the heating power of the lower space 142 is low, and the liquid refrigerant is discharged from the first gas discharge end of the lower space 142 and enters the compressor 11 without being vaporized to be gaseous, so as to cause liquid slugging of the compressor 11, in order to avoid this phenomenon, as shown in fig. 2, on the basis of the above embodiment, a second valve 19 is further disposed between the first gas discharge end of the lower space 142 and the gas suction end of the compressor 11, so that the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant is fast, the power of the heating device is low, the evaporation rate is low, or the liquid refrigerant is closed when the liquid refrigerant is in the lower space 142 and the heating component of the lower space 142 is not opened, so as to prevent the liquid refrigerant from entering the compressor 11.
Since the liquid refrigerant is rapidly evaporated to a gaseous state when the heating device 15 is in operation, the pressure in the lower space 142 may be very high, and the problem of the excessive pressure cannot be solved only by the second valve 19, in order to further release the pressure in the lower space 142, as shown in fig. 2, on the basis of the above embodiment, the second gas discharge end of the lower space 142 is communicated with the gas discharge end of the upper space 141 through the pressure balance pipeline, the pressure balance pipeline is further provided with a third valve 110, which is used for opening when the pressure value in the lower space 142 is greater than the preset pressure value, so that the gaseous refrigerant in the lower space 142 is merged with the gaseous refrigerant discharged from the discharge end of the upper space 141 through the third valve 110 and then returned to the compressor, thereby reducing the pressure in the lower space 142, and the pressure in the lower space 142 is maintained within a normal range in cooperation with the second valve 19.
In order to realize the effect of enthalpy increase, the first exhaust end of the lower space 142 of the gas-liquid separator is further communicated with the enthalpy injection pipeline of the compressor 11 through a pipeline for enthalpy increase, and the pipeline is further provided with an enthalpy increase valve 111 for controlling whether the gaseous refrigerant discharged from the exhaust end of the gas-liquid separator enters the enthalpy injection pipeline.

The heating tank 35 is connected with the air inlet of the compressor 31 through a pipeline, and an exhaust valve 39 is arranged on the pipeline.
When the air conditioning system operates at low temperature, high-temperature and high-pressure gas discharged from the compressor 31 enters the outdoor heat exchanger 32 through the oil-gas separator 310 and the check valve 311 to be condensed and release heat, then the condensed and released heat is changed into liquid, then the liquid leaves the outdoor heat exchanger 32 and enters the indoor heat exchanger 33, the refrigerant is throttled in the indoor heat exchanger 33 to be changed into low-temperature and low-pressure liquid, and the low-temperature and low-pressure liquid is evaporated and absorbs heat in the indoor heat exchanger 33 to realize refrigeration.
Fig. 4 is a refrigerant flow diagram of the gas-liquid separator and the heating device of the air conditioning system according to the embodiment of the present invention, and as shown in fig. 4, the refrigerant evaporated in the indoor heat exchanger enters the gas-liquid separator 34. After the refrigerant enters the gas-liquid separator 34, part of the gaseous refrigerant directly comes out from the gas-liquid separator 34 and enters the air suction end of the compressor 31, and the other part of the liquid refrigerant enters the heating tank 35 through the liquid inlet valve 37, is heated by the heating tank 35 to become gaseous refrigerant and enters the air suction end of the compressor 31. Through this structure, can effectively promote system's evaporation side pressure, prevent that evaporation temperature from crossing excessively for indoor heat exchanger 33 frosts. And the frequency of the outer fan can be reduced simultaneously, and the situation that the high-pressure side pressure is too low and further the low-pressure side pressure is influenced is prevented.

s101, detecting the temperature of an indoor heat exchanger pipeline; wherein, the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is an inlet pipeline or an outlet pipeline of the indoor heat exchanger, if the temperature of the outdoor environment is lower, the evaporating temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is lower, which can cause the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline to be reduced, therefore, by detecting the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline, whether the air conditioning system is in a low-temperature refrigeration state can be judged, in addition, as the refrigerant enters the indoor heat exchanger and exchanges heat, when the refrigerant is discharged from the indoor heat exchanger, the temperature can be increased, therefore, the temperature of the outlet pipeline of the indoor heat exchanger is higher than the temperature of the inlet pipeline, and the temperature of the outlet pipeline can be influenced by the air volume of the fan and the indoor temperature, therefore, the temperature of the inlet pipeline can be detected, which can truly reflect the state of the air conditioner, therefore, the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is preferably the, the temperature of the pipeline can be detected by a temperature sensor arranged on the pipeline at the inlet end of the indoor heat exchanger.
And S102, if the temperature of the pipeline is lower than a first preset temperature and lasts for a first preset time, triggering a heating device of the gas-liquid separator to work, so that the liquid refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator is converted into a gaseous refrigerant and then discharged.
In specific implementation, if it is detected that the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is lower than a first preset temperature for a period of time, it is indicated that the indoor heat exchanger is frosted, at this time, the heating device should be started to heat the liquid refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator so as to increase the pressure in the system and raise the evaporation temperature of the indoor heat exchanger, wherein the first preset temperature is set according to an experimental value or an empirical value, and the set method is that when the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is lower than a certain temperature, the indoor heat exchanger is frosted, and the temperature is set as the first preset temperature.
In addition, in order to more accurately judge the state of the air conditioning system, the temperature of the outdoor environment can be detected before the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is detected, if the temperature of the outdoor environment is lower than a preset threshold value, the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is continuously detected, if the temperature of the outdoor environment is higher than or equal to the preset threshold value, the temperature of the outdoor environment is continuously detected until the temperature of the outdoor environment is lower than the preset threshold value, and then the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is detected, wherein the preset threshold value can be zero degrees centigrade.
In a specific implementation, in order to control the liquid refrigerant flowing out of the upper space of the gas-liquid separator to flow into the lower space, the method further includes: and controlling a first valve arranged on a pipeline between the upper space and the lower space of the gas-liquid separator to be opened so as to control the liquid refrigerant in the upper space of the gas-liquid separator to flow into the lower space.
After the liquid refrigerant flows into the lower space 142 through the pipeline, the lower space 142 heats the refrigerant, if the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant is fast, the heating power of the lower space 142 is small, and the liquid refrigerant is discharged from the first gas discharge end of the lower space 142 to the compressor 11 without being evaporated into a gas state, so as to cause liquid slugging of the compressor 11, in order to avoid this phenomenon, a second valve 19 is further disposed between the first gas discharge end of the lower space 142 and the gas suction end of the compressor 11, so that when the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant is fast, the power of the heating device is small, the evaporation rate is low, or the second valve 19 is closed under the condition that the liquid refrigerant is in the lower space 142 and the heating component of the lower space 142 is not opened, so that if the heating device of the gas-liquid separator is triggered to work, the second valve 19 is in a closed state, the opening of the second valve is controlled after the heating device triggering the gas-liquid separator works.
Because the heating device does not need to be started when the air conditioning system normally operates, in order to control the heating device to be closed when the air conditioner normally operates and avoid energy waste, after the heating device of the gas-liquid separator is controlled to be started, the method further comprises the following steps: the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is detected, the temperature of the pipeline is detected through the temperature sensor, and the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger pipeline is detected by the temperature sensor in real time; if the temperature of the pipeline is higher than a second preset temperature and lasts for a second preset time, it is indicated that the indoor heat exchanger is not frosted, and the air conditioner normally operates, the heating device is triggered to stop working, wherein the second preset temperature is higher than the first preset temperature, the second preset temperature is set according to an experimental value or an empirical value, the set method is that when the temperature of the pipeline of the indoor heat exchanger is higher than a certain temperature, the indoor heat exchanger is determined not to be frosted, and the temperature is set as the second preset temperature.
After the heating device is turned on, the liquid refrigerant may be rapidly evaporated into a gaseous state, and the pressure inside the space below the gas-liquid separator may be increased, and in order to prevent the pressure inside the space below the gas-liquid separator from being too high, the method further includes: detecting the pressure value in the lower space of the gas-liquid separator; and when the pressure value in the lower space of the gas-liquid separator is greater than the preset pressure value, controlling a third valve arranged on a pipeline between the second exhaust end of the lower space of the gas-liquid separator and the exhaust end of the upper space of the gas-liquid separator to open so that the gaseous refrigerant in the lower space passes through the third valve and then is merged with the gaseous refrigerant exhausted from the exhaust end of the upper space and then returns to the compressor, and reducing the pressure in the lower space of the gas-liquid separator.
According to the control method of the air conditioning system, the running state of the air conditioner is judged by detecting the discharge of the outlet end of the indoor heat exchanger, when the evaporation temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is lower than the set temperature, the evaporation temperature of the indoor heat exchanger can be effectively improved by opening the heating device, the frosting of the indoor heat exchanger can be effectively prevented, and the refrigeration effect of the air conditioner is ensured.
