A tool for integrated HVAC, building, energy and control analysis Part 1: overview of QUICK control

摘要

This paper describes a tool called QUICK control. The new, simplified, yet extensively verified building model made an efficient integrated tool possible. The system simulation is done using simplified though accurate component models. A unique simulation tool resulted. Any building, any HVAC system, and any control strategy can new quikcly be built up using a graphical user interface. The integrated building, HVAC and control problem is then solved iteratively. Energy balances for each component, and for the system as a whole, are obtained. HVAC systems and controls can now be designed, optimised, and commissioned with ease and confidence.
