The use of full-color LED displays is now very popular, and has penetrated into many industries and fields. Winbond Ying Optoelectronics found that many customers are more concerned about a problem, that is, the calculation method of LED display power consumption and electricity bills. It seems that customers are more concerned about the use of electricity in the later period. After all, this involves an energy-saving problem. Then Winbond Ying Optoelectronics will briefly introduce the calculation method of LED display power consumption and electricity bills, hoping to let customers Can have a preliminary understanding.

The internal heat dissipation and specific power consumption of the LED display screen can be estimated as follows:

　　In the industry, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of LED tubes is usually set to 20%-30% (estimated), so the total thermal power consumption of the screen can be estimated as 70% of the total power consumption of the screen. The total thermal power consumption is deducted from the 6 outward-facing heat of the screen (about 20%), and the rest is the heat dissipation of the internal space of the screen, which accounts for about 50% of the total power consumption of the screen (to be exact, the total average Power consumption, because the display screen can't always be played on a full white screen, with light and dark).

　　 If the average power consumption of an outdoor LED display is 450W/square (different products are different), the area is 50 square meters. Then the total average power consumption of the display screen is 22.5KW. According to the 50% conversion rate of heat power consumption, there is about 11KW heat generation inside the screen (the heat generated by sunlight is not taken into account).

However, at this time, the calculated heat value per unit time inside the screen cannot be directly used as a reference value for selecting the specifications and quantity of air conditioners. For example, 11KW divided by 6KW leads to the conclusion that two 2.5P air conditioners are required, because outdoor This factor is the structural characteristics of the LED display.

The internal width (channel width) of the outdoor LED display is generally between 0.8-1 meters, which is about 1/3 of the height of an ordinary residential room (2.8-3 meters), that is, the volume of the internal space of the display under the same area Only 1/3 of the volume of an ordinary residential room. According to the use experience in real life, taking the ordinary residential room as a reference, inside the outdoor LED display screen, the cooling capacity of 1P air conditioner can be increased by about 3 times (due to the smaller space), that is, the cooling capacity of 1P is equivalent to The cooling capacity of 7500W in an ordinary room and 1.5P is equivalent to 10500W in an ordinary room...

So after calculating that the heat dissipation inside the screen is 11KW, then we can choose two 1P air conditioners (equivalent to 2*7500W. Choosing two 1P air conditioners is more conducive to cold air in space than choosing a 2P air conditioner. Circulate evenly). Normally, it is recommended that the actual cooling capacity of the air conditioner be 40-50% larger than the internal heat dissipation of the screen, because the heat generated by the sun's exposure to the screen must also be considered (the amount of solar radiation varies greatly in different regions).

In a nutshell, the estimation method of LED display air conditioner specifications (hp) is the following two steps:

　　 1. First estimate the amount of heat generated within the display screen per unit time: Q = average power consumption per square * display area * 0.5;

2. Use the value Q/3 to compare the cooling capacity of air conditioners in ordinary spaces (1HP 2500W, 1.5HP 3500W...), and select the appropriate air conditioner specifications and quantity; under normal circumstances, the cooling capacity of the air conditioner is required to be higher than Q/ 3 big 40-50%.

For the 50 square LED display mentioned above, the air conditioner specifications are calculated: Q=11kw, Q/3≈3.6kw, after comparing the common air conditioner specifications, you can choose two 1hp (2500w) air conditioners, which is just 5000w. 3600w is 40% larger.

    Regarding the cooling capacity of air conditioners, it is customary to use "Hits" to measure the current market. There are 6 types of common air conditioner horse numbers: 1 horse, 1.5 horses, 2 horses, 2.5 horses, 3 horses, and 5 horses. The corresponding cooling capacities are 2500 watts, 3500 watts, 5000 watts, 6000 watts, 7000 watts, and 12000 watts. (The cooling capacity is not the power consumption of air-conditioning, and the power of 1 HP air-conditioning is about 736W). To estimate the specifications of the LED display air conditioner, it is necessary to first estimate the heat dissipation inside the LED display screen and understand the cooling capacity (specification) of the air conditioner, because the cooling capacity of the air conditioner at this time represents the air conditioner from the inside of the LED display screen per unit time The total amount of heat removed from the space.

I believe that after reading the above basic content about the power consumption calculation of the led display, there should be a general idea and method for its calculation.
