Buildings are dynamical systems with several control challenges: large storage capacities, switching aggregates, technical and thermal constraints, and internal and external disturbances (occupancy, ambient temperature, solar radiation). Conflicting optimization goals naturally arise in buildings, where the maximization of user comfort versus the minimization of energy consumption poses the main trade-off...
This paper presents a cooperative fuzzy model predictive control (CFMPC) for heating and cooling of buildings. Because of different supply zones, the large time constants and the non-linear building dynamics with respect to the different seasons, a CFMPC concept is proposed. The overall non-linear building is split into different zones, which are consisting of input-coupled Takagi-Sugeno (TS)-fuzzy...
