  • System and method for controlling operations of air-conditioning system
    Patent number: 10145576
    Abstract: A method determines values of the airflow measured in the conditioned environment during the operation of the air-conditioning system and selects, from a set of regimes predetermined for the conditioned environment, a regime of the airflow matching the measured values of the airflow. The method selects, from a set of models of the airflow predetermined for the conditioned environment, a model of airflow corresponding to the selected regime and models the airflow using the selected model. The operation of the air-conditioning system is controlled using the modeled airflow.

  • System and method for controlling operations of air-conditioning system
    Patent number: 9976765
    Abstract: A method controls an operation of an air-conditioning system generating airflow in a conditioned environment. The method updates a model of airflow dynamics connecting values of flow and temperature of air conditioned during the operation of the air-conditioning system. The model is updated interactively iteratively to reduce an error between values of the airflow determined according to the model and values of the airflow measured during the operation. Next, the method models the airflow using the updated model and controls the operation of the air-conditioning system using the model.
