Fresh-air air conditioning system and control method

A fresh-air air conditioning system comprises: a first electromagnetic valve connected to a first interior heat exchanger, and the first electromagnetic valve is connected via a first accumulator to a compressor and a third electromagnetic valve; the third electromagnetic valve is connected via a second accumulator to the compressor and a second electromagnetic valve; and the second electromagnetic valve is connected to a second interior heat exchanger. When the first interior heat exchanger or the second interior heat exchanger is closed, the third electromagnetic valve opens so that the first accumulator and the second accumulator simultaneously communicate with the open one of the first interior heat exchanger or the second interior heat exchanger, avoiding poor oil return as a result of prolonged single-cylinder operation of the compressor, and ensuring the reliability of the compressor as well as interior comfort.

An environment control system utilizes oxygen and humidity control devices that are coupled with an enclosure to independently control the oxygen concentration and the humidity level within the enclosure. An oxygen depletion device may be an oxygen depletion electrolyzer cell that reacts with oxygen within the cell and produces water through electrochemical reactions. A desiccating device may be g, a dehumidification electrolyzer cell, a desiccator, a membrane desiccator or a condenser. A controller may control the amount of voltage and/or current provided to the oxygen depletion electrolyzer cell and therefore the rate of oxygen reduction and may control the amount of voltage and/or current provided to the dehumidification electrolyzer cell and therefore the rate of humidity reduction. The oxygen level may be determined by the measurement of voltage and a limiting current of the oxygen depletion electrolyzer cell. The enclosure may be a food or artifact enclosure.

Damper fault detection

A damper controller may be configured to send damper control commands to open and close an outdoor air damper to provide free cooling as necessary to satisfy a temperature setpoint inside the building. In some cases, the damper controller may initiate a damper fault test to determine if a damper fault is present. The damper fault test may be based, at least in part, on an outdoor air temperature input, a discharge air temperature input, a commanded damper position, and a damper fault temperature threshold. If a damper fault is determined, the damper controller may send an alert indicative of a detected damper fault. In some cases, the damper fault test results may be weighted to reduce the false positives alerts.
