Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for controlling an air conditioner, the air conditioner comprising: a compressor that compresses a refrigerant; and a control unit that controls the compressor, wherein the control unit includes: a main control unit that controls the entirety of the air conditioner; a start-up control unit that controls the compressor when the compressor is operated; a normal control unit that controls the compressor according to a target room temperature after the start-up control unit completely controls the compressor; and a bumpless control unit that calculates a compensation value for lowering the operating frequency of the compressor according to an indoor load when a priority for controlling the compressor is transferred from the start-up control unit to the normal control unit, wherein the bumpless control unit lowers the operating frequency of the compressor according to the compensation value. The present invention applies a compensation value for lowering the operating frequency of the compressor according to an indoor load when the start-up control for the compressor changes to the normal control, thereby reducing energy according to the use of the compressor and preventing oscillation of a room temperature.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 2 , comprising:\n a step (S 10 ) in which the compressor initially starts up as power is applied to the compressor; a step (S 20 ) in which the start-up control unit performs a start-up control on the compressor upon the initial start of the compressor; a step (S 30 ) in which a switching condition for switching a control right over the compressor is determined after the step S 20 ; a step (S 40 ) in which the timing of applying a compensation value is determined when the switching condition is satisfied in the step S 30 ; a step (S 50 ) in which a size of the compensation value is determined when the switching condition is satisfied in the step S 30 ; a step (S 60 ) in which the timing of applying a compensation value and the size of the compensation value respectively determined in the steps S 40  and S 50  are applied to the compressor ( 10 ); and a step (S 70 ) in which the main control unit switches the control right to be transferred to the normal control unit ( 26 ) after the step S 60 .
