Summary

Extremum seeking control (ESC) is a popular datadriven approach for optimizing the energy consumption of vapor compression systems (VCS). Tuning ESC control parameters can present a challenge to implementation, especially in advanced variants of ESC, because timeconsuming and problemspecific manual tuning is often required to eliminate numerical and dynamical instabilities. In this paper, we propose an automatic ESC tuning mechanism based on a Bayesian optimization framework that systematically leverages closedloop ESC experiments to compute highperforming ESC parameters. We validate the proposed Bayesianoptimized ESC on a physicsbased Modelica model of a VCS. This new approach is six times faster and yields a 9% higher coefficient of performance than a stateoftheart timevarying ESC method under identical experimental conditions.
