Considering that a large amount of refrigerant is stored in the external machine liquid storage tank when the oil return stage is finished, and the indoor machine expansion valve easily misjudges that the air conditioning system lacks the refrigerant according to the pipe temperature, so that the opening degree of the indoor machine expansion valve is large, the method provided by the embodiment further comprises the following steps (1) to (2):
step (1): and when the multi-connected air conditioner exits the oil return stage, detecting the opening and closing states of the indoor units of the multi-connected air conditioner.
Before the control heat exchange assembly starts to operate, when the multi-connected air conditioner exits the oil return stage, the indoor unit in the on state and the indoor unit in the off state are detected.
Step (2): and controlling the valve opening and the operation time of each indoor unit expansion valve according to the opening and closing state.
According to the refrigerating capacity information of the indoor units in the starting state, the opening degree of each indoor unit expansion valve is controlled, so that the opening degree of the indoor unit expansion valve is forcibly controlled, the phenomenon that the opening degree of the indoor unit expansion valve is too large due to refrigerant misjudgment is avoided, and the running stability of the multi-connected air conditioner is improved.
