  • Patent number: 11236925
    Abstract: The invention relates to a control system for a building zone which is climate conditioned by a climate conditioning system, wherein the climate conditioning system controls at least one climate parameter in the building zone, the climate parameter being at least one of: temperature (T) and humidity (RH). The control system is configured to provide a climate parameter target to a building management system. The climate parameter target is determined dynamically based on current sensor measurements while taking energy, thermal comfort and preservation requirements into account. Namely, rather than continuously steering the climate parameter to reach a preset value, some ‘free-running’ of the climate parameter is allowed by calculating a permissible range for the climate parameter, which reduces active climate conditioning and thereby contributes to energy savings. To further take preservation requirements into account, the rate of change in the climate parameter is limited to a maximum.
