Optimizing Operations of Multiple Air-Conditioning Units |
| 摘要 |
A method operates a set of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) units by optimizing jointly operations of the set of HVAC units subject to constraints to determine times of switching each HVAC unit ON and OFF and by controlling each HVAC unit according to the corresponding times of switching. The operation of each HVAC unit is represented by a continuous function. The constraints include a complementarity constraint for each HVAC unit, such that the complementarity constraint for the HVAC unit defines a discontinuity of the operation of the HVAC unit at corresponding times of switching. |

1. A method for operating a set of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) units, comprising:
optimizing jointly operations of the set of HVAC units subject to constraints to determine times of switching each HVAC unit ON and OFF, wherein the operation of each HVAC unit is represented by a continuous function, wherein the constraints include a complementarity constraint for each HVAC unit, such that the complementarity constraint for the HVAC unit defines a discontinuity of the operation of the HVAC unit at corresponding times of switching; and controlling each HVAC unit according to the corresponding times of switching, wherein the steps are performed in a processor. |
