Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy conservation, and in particular to a method for energy conservation evaluation and operation strategy optimization of a central air-conditioning system. Background Art
[0002] With the development of Internet of Things technology, the energy consumption management of central air-conditioning systems is becoming more and more automated. However, in the process of energy analysis, energy metering is more often used to analyze the energy usage of equipment, which lacks systematic and procedural analysis. At the same time, after completing the energy analysis, it is necessary to identify the cause through data and manual investigation, which is time-consuming. Moreover, after the cause problem is successfully analyzed, there is no corresponding optimization strategy or the strategy is not targeted. Such problems require a high level of professionalism for operation and maintenance personnel.
[0003] Invention patent CN118446384B proposes an LSTM-based energy-saving optimization method, system and device for building HVAC systems, which predicts energy consumption through a small amount of historical data, equipment operating parameters and simulation data to generate an initial optimization strategy. Its energy-saving method is achieved by adjusting the supply and return water temperatures based on the predicted energy consumption. It uses model training and data algorithms to analyze data, and is a method of predictive result-oriented feedforward regulation. The model training has the problem of overfitting, which will cause deviations in energy consumption predictions; there are missing links in the energy-saving process, and the influence of parameters other than the supply and return water temperatures on the energy-saving steps is not considered. The optimization strategy only targets the regulation of the supply water temperature, and the method is single.
