description | Central heating system faults affect building energy consumption and indoor thermal comfort significantly. To aim at the balance between thermal comfortable and energy-saving of the heating system for high-rise residential buildings, this paper proposes a method for the central heating system of high-rise residential buildings based on distributed model predictive control. The method analyzes the coupling factors between adjacent rooms’ temperature. Based on the state space method, a multivariable indoor temperature model is established and verified. The distributed model predictive control method is used to control and optimize the indoor temperature, and the load distribution of the circulating water pump in the heat exchange station is optimized according to the predicted heat demand. The results demonstrate that the indoor temperature after distributed model predictive control can stable near the set value. Compared with the centralized control methods, the proposed methodology can reduce energy consumption by 14.28%. Meanwhile, the efficiency of water pumps is increased by 16.74% after using the distributed control strategy. |
