Optimized control of building shading systems and thermostat

Abstract

This work suggests a new methodology of a whole building simulation-based control of building shading systems. The thermostat control is also considered synchronously to study the effect of adding new control systems. The problem is focusing on the users’ viewpoint by describing a “user satisfaction” function, which is attempted to be optimized. The suggested approach allows users to choose their comfort factors with their limits and the allowed energy spent to provide view to the outside. Users can grade all shading positions regarding view and the suggested approach seeks for minimizing energy consumption and maximizing view to the outside taking notice of visual and thermal comfort satisfaction. The problem described as an optimization problem and new tools has been built and new functionality to current tools has been added. The initial typical approach used optimization algorithms such as the simplex method of Nelder and Mead, the pattern search method of Hooke and Jeeves, the gen ...
