[Case Study] Examination of the Application of a Multi-Purpose Optimization Method for Air Conditioning Control in Commercial Buildings

Verify the results of the optimization algorithm and consider whether it can be applied to air conditioning control in the future!

We would like to introduce a case where Azbil Corporation utilized 'modeFRONTIER' for the application study of a multi-purpose optimization method for air conditioning control in commercial buildings. In the "Task Ambient Air Conditioning," the goal was to determine the set values of air conditioning equipment that enable airflow control to enhance comfort and energy efficiency. By verifying the results of the optimization algorithm, we will consider whether it can be applied to air conditioning control in the future. By utilizing the parallel computing capabilities of 'modeFRONTIER' and OpenFOAM, there is potential for application in real-time air conditioning control as long as the number of computers is increased. However, it was also found that an increase in the number of computers for calculations could hinder energy savings. 【Features of modeFRONTIER】 ■ A new optimization tool that supports "thinking" ■ Richly equipped with unique methods and functions to meet the needs of design and development sites ■ High support from many users ■ Building a distributed execution environment using multiple machines without relying on general NQS *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
