1. A method for operating an HVAC system, the HVAC system configured for cooling air within a building, heating air within the building, or both, the method comprising:
providing a model for an indoor temperature, y, of the building, the model for y comprising
yk=ak−1+a2yk−2+b1vk−1+b2uk−1where
yk is an indoor temperature of the building at time k,yk−1 is an indoor temperature of the building at time k−1,yk−2 is an indoor temperature of the building at time k−2,vk−1 is an outdoor temperature at time k−1,uk−1 is an operating state of the HVAC system at time k−1, anda1, a2, b1, and b2 are constants; providing predicted future outdoor temperatures; calculating future operating states of the HVAC system with a controller of the HVAC system utilizing at least the model for y, the model for J, and the predicted future outdoor temperatures; and activating the HVAC system during the future operating states of the HVAC system from said step of calculating. |
