PREDICTIVE CONTROL OF INDOOR TEMPERATURES IN OFFICE BUILDINGS. ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND COMFORT.

Summary

THE PAPER PRESENTS THE RESULTS OF SIMULATIONS OF A PREDICTIVE-CONTROL SYSTEM FOR INDOOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL. THE PREDICTIVE-CONTROL SYSTEM IS COMPARED WITH AN OUTDOOR-TEMPERATURE COMPENSATING-CONTROL SYSTEM AND A PI CONTROL SYSTEM, EACH WITH AN OPTIMIZER FOR STARTING UP OF THE HVAC INSTALLATION. THE PREDICTIVE-CONTROL SYSTEM USES PREDICTIONS OF THE INDOOR TEMPERATURE AND THE OUTDOOR CLIMATE TO TAKE CONTROL ACTION THE MODELS FOR THE INDOOR TEMPERATURE ANDOUTDOOR CLIMATE ARE ESTIMATED FROM MEASUREMENTS BY MEANS OF A RECURSIVE LEAST-SQUARES-PARAMETER ESTIMATOR. THE CONCLUSION IS THAT THE PREDICTIVE-CONTROL SYSTEM CAN BE APPLIED SUCCESSFULLY IN COOLING SYSTEMS. THE PERFORMANCE OF THE HEATING SYSTEM DOES NOT IMPROVE SUBSTANTIALLY BY PREDICTIVE CONTROL.
