Description

Computerized building and energy management and controlsystems provide a variety of effective ways to reduce utility costs and energyconsumption associated with maintaining environmental conditions and thermalcomfort in buildings. These systems can incorporate advanced control strategiesthat respond to inputs including changing weather, building conditions,occupancy levels and utility rates to minimize operating costs, energyconsumption and greenhouse gas emissions while also enhancing occupant comfort.This chapter focuses on the opportunities and control strategies associatedwith using supervisory control strategies and optimization methods applied tocooling systems, heating systems, air-handling units, and zone equipment.TERMINOLOGYMETHODSControl VariablesSupervisory Control StrategiesStatic OptimizationDynamic OptimizationCONTROL STRATEGIES AND OPTIMIZATIONControl Strategies for Cooling Tower FansChilled-Water Reset with Fixed-Speed PumpingChilled-Water Reset with Variable-Speed PumpingSequencing and Loading Multiple ChillersSimplified Static Optimization of Cooling PlantsDynamic Optimization for Cooling Using Discrete StorageForecasting Diurnal Cooling and Whole-Building DemandProfilesPredictive HVAC Control StrategiesControl Strategies for Heating SystemsControl Strategies for Air-Handling UnitsControl Strategies for Building ZonesNo. of Pages: 48
