Indoor Environment and Sustainable Building Thermal Distribution Principle Nonlinear Optimal Control for HVAC Water System

This book introduces the intelligent control technology of heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) water system in detail, studying its thermal distribution characteristics and optimal control methods combining the nonlinearity, strong coupling and delay characteristics to improve the overall operation and maintenance level as well as the energy efficiency of HVAC water system. Intelligent control technology of HVAC water systems involves various fields such as electrical, mechanical, environmental and civil engineering. The book establishes a basic research framework for this topic using a sub-total approach, emphasizing the importance of thermodynamic properties and the significant influence of nonlinear properties in the optimal control of the system. This book is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students interested in automated control of HVAC water systems, researchers investigating methods for system energy conservation and optimization and design engineers working on intelligent operation and maintenance of HVAC water system.
