System and method for controlling a multi-zone vapor compression system and non-transitory computer readable storage medium

摘要

A system controls a multi-zone vapor compression system (MZ-VCS). The system comprises a controller that controls the vapor compression cycle of the MZ-VCS using a set of control inputs determined by optimizing a cost function that includes a set of control parameters. This optimization is subject to constraints, and the cost function is optimized over the prediction horizon. The system also comprises a memory for storing an optimization function parameterized by the configuration of the MZ-VCS defining the active mode or the inactive mode of each heat exchanger, said optimization function comprising all memory in the active mode. The values of the control parameters of the cost function determined for the complete configuration including the heat exchanger are changed according to the current configuration. The system also comprises a processor that determines the current configuration of the MZ-VCS and updates the cost function by submitting the current configuration to the optimization function.
