Abstract

A Mobile Monitoring System (MMS) has been designed taking into account the use of technology with high sensor accuracy and the ability to be installed easily and quickly in different cardinal locations, distribution spaces, volumes and at different heights of a tertiary in-use building located in Leioa (Bilbao). Two types of MMS have been designed with the objective of carrying out two types of analysis; one intended to do a global indoor air temperature uncertainty analysis and the other focused on doing a global outdoor air temperature uncertainty analysis.Eight tripods make up the interior MMS with twenty sensors at different heights, which have been installed in different offices in the building to collect indoor air temperature measurements at different heights and locations. In addition, eight sensors make up the exterior MMS to collect data from outdoor air temperature measurements around the building envelope. Both MMS have been integrated into the existing Building Automation System (BAS) of the tertiary building; some other data collected by the BAS has also been taken into account for the uncertainty analysis of indoor and outdoor air temperature.The interior and exterior MMS datasets have been compiled based on a rigorous data collection process, with the potential to use the data to study the spatial air temperature behavior, taking into account the impact of solar radiation, the heating system and the electrical energy consumption. Furthermore, it enables the global uncertainty of indoor and outdoor air temperature measurements on an in-use building to be estimated and to break it down into the different uncertainty sources, such as the sensor accuracy, vertical and horizontal temperature variability, solar radiation, occupancy and heating system effects. Finally, it enables the optimization of monitoring and control systems for BAS, heating and HVAC systems, as well as any monitoring system implemented in research tests using indoor and/or outdoor temperature measurements as key variables.

Summary

Data description

There are three types of dataset; data collected from the existing Building Automation System (BAS) and from two Mobile Monitoring Systems (MMS), interior and exterior MMS. For the interior experimental test, the Monitoring System (MS) has been conceived to be a mobile system, so as to be able to quickly change the MS to different spaces and floors, adapting it to different distances, heights and geometrics in each space. Twenty sensors, two gateways, Modbus wire and aero-connectors make up the interior MMS. In the case of the MS for the exterior experimental test, eight sensors have been placed around the building at different heights and cardinal orientations. A gateway, Modbus wire and aero-connectors composed the exterior MMS. The technologies used for the interior and exterior MMS and the existing BAS of the tertiary building are: upperRoman%1 Mobile Monitoring System (MMS) for interior measurement composed of:
