Abstract
This paper presents a technique for designing optimum reference temperature profiles for energy-efficient control of indoor air temperature in buildings. Arbitrarily chosen reference temperature profiles are often fraught with undesirable consequences, such as thermal discomfort for a building’s occupants or high consumption of fuels and electricity. An optimized reference temperature profile, on the other hand, attempts to seek a desired trade-off between the level of discomfort and amount of energy consumed. Also, the use of such optimized temperature profiles for adaptive control of indoor building temperature is discussed in details and some simulation results are presented.
