control strategy of a volume of air from the temperature dependent variable

摘要

A control strategy for rejecting supply air temperature disturbances in variable air volume air conditioning units using staged DX cooling. The strategy, and corresponding system, minimizes supply air temperature disturbances by controlling zone air dampers through a mapping of zone heat transfer requirements and damper positions. The mapping maintains a zone temperature setpoint, even with relatively large temperature swings caused by system-supplied conditioned air. The primary parameter that is controlled by the strategy of the present invention is a heat transfer rate associated with a temperature-controlled zone. The control strategy of the present invention estimates the zone heat transfer rate at a particular sampling instant and controls the damper position in response thereto.
