COMFORT CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FACTORING MEAN RADIANT TEMPERATURE

摘要

A comfort control system 10 determines the operating temperature set point for the environment to be controlled, in part by indirectly measuring the means radian temperature of the environment. A temperature sensor 30 and relative humidity sensor 40 provide electrical signals to a microprocessor 60. A building load monitor 50 either monitors the duty cycle of the heating/cooling system or senses the difference between the environment temperature and the outside temperature to generate a value indicative of the heating/cooling load on the building. the microprocessor 60 determines the operating set point, compares the set point to the temperature of the environment, and generates a control signal for the heating/cooling system.
