[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: About temperature control
Thanks for your reply.I've downloaded the lastest version.
I have some more problems and expectation for your kind help.
1. At present,i'm studying the outside air economizer control.In
i/o ,it said:"if the outside air temperature is greater than or equal
to the mixed air temperature
set point, the outside air flow rate is set to the maximum; if the
outside air temperature is less
than the mixed air temperature set point, the outside air controller
will modulate the outside
air flow so that the mixed air temperature will match the mixed air
set point temperature."
I can't understand this sentence.So i simulate the 5ZoneEngChill.idf
for all year to study the result report.But i find,during system
operative period,the mixed air node temp is nearly the same with the
outside air temp,except at the first hour(at 8:00)mixed air temp is a
little greater than outside air temp.During uncontrolled period,the
temp is different from the outside air temp.The mixed temp setpoint
is the VAV outlet setpoint subtract the fan temp rise.Now that the
mixed air temp is just the outside air temp,then how does the
economizer run?Does the temp comparision have significant meaning?
Probably,i understand it false.Could you explain the control method
detailed for me?
2.For all year simulation,during seasonal period,for example in oct
5,the outside air temp is high enough.But it is during heating
period,although the heating coil did not work,the temp in zone rise
straightly,sometimes reach 28¡æ.It is not comfortable.Can you give me
a method to deal with such case?(Taking no account of other
thing,such as energy waste.I just want to the zone be controlled well
and gain the comfort report)
Thanks in advance.
