Abstract
A range control MPC formulation is presented for control of Vapor Compression Cycles (VCC). Variation in system dynamics is handled through application of range control which is a generalization of a tracking problem whereby the set-point for the system output is replaced by a funnel (time-varying upper and lower bounds on the system output) which is implemented as a set of soft constraints. Vapor cycle is optimized to maximize device efficiency while ensuring feasibility of operation. Experimental validation of the control design, embedded in a heat-pump controller, is presented.
