Abstract
The on-line optimal control algorithm for central heating system has been researched for minimizing energy consumption while maintaining the comfort of indoor thermal environment in terms of the environmental variables such as indoor heating load and outdoor temperature variation. This study has been done by using TRNSYS Program in order to analyze the central heating system. The optimal control algorithm shows good energy Performances in comparison with the conventional one.
