[0002] The comfort of the indoor environment directly affects people's work efficiency and quality of life. Therefore, it is crucial to regulate and maintain appropriate indoor temperature, humidity and air quality. Among these factors, temperature is one of the key parameters affecting comfort. Large buildings are usually equipped with central air-conditioning systems, which usually consist of multiple components such as chillers, fans, cooling towers, and piping systems. Its operation is affected by many factors, including the design of the building, external climate, indoor heat load, etc.

[0003] In modern buildings, large central air-conditioning systems are one of the key technologies to ensure indoor environmental comfort and energy efficiency. However, traditional central air-conditioning control systems have the following major problems: 1. Lack of real-time data support: Many existing systems cannot obtain key parameters such as external environmental temperature and humidity in real time, resulting in the inability to adjust the control strategy in a timely manner; 2. Single model limitation: Most traditional systems rely on a single mathematical model for prediction and control, which is difficult to adapt to complex and changeable actual environmental conditions; 3. Energy waste: Due to the inaccurate control strategy, it often leads to excessive energy consumption and increased operating costs; 4. Poor user experience: It is impossible to flexibly adjust the temperature according to the needs of different areas, affecting the user's comfort.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned related technologies, a solution is now proposed. Summary of the invention

[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, a physical model of the actual building and central air-conditioning system is established locally. The model should take into account factors such as the building's geometry, material properties, window location and its thermal insulation performance, and reflect the performance parameters of the central air-conditioning, such as cooling / heating capacity, air flow path, etc., to ensure that the model is highly consistent with the actual scene. Next, a multi-scenario simulation environment is established based on the physical model. Design corresponding control strategies for different scenarios such as different seasons and different weather conditions. These strategies should cover temperature regulation, humidity control and air circulation to adapt to different user needs and environmental changes, and obtain the current environmental parameters of the actual building in real time, including indoor temperature, humidity, wind speed, external temperature, etc. These parameters are input into the constructed physical model to provide basic data for subsequent control decisions, establish a real-time control feedback mechanism, and continuously monitor the current indoor temperature and external environmental changes in each time step. Through high-frequency data collection and processing, ensure that the system can respond to environmental changes in a timely manner and maintain indoor comfort. Then, based on the output data of the central air-conditioning and the current environmental parameters, this information is entered into the physical model to predict the temperature changes in the actual building. This process requires combining historical data with current status, using algorithms to accurately predict temperature, and finally, iterating all models using optimization algorithms to determine the best control curve based on the prediction results. The optimization algorithm can combine a variety of modern optimization techniques such as genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization to achieve the best balance between maximum energy efficiency and user comfort.

The established model framework has good scalability and can easily integrate other influencing factors such as humidity and wind speed.

[0010] Preferably, in step S1, the central air conditioning physical model is constructed using the following expression: ; in, represents the total cooling load; k represents the thermal conductivity of the material; A represents the heat transfer area; Indicates the external temperature; represents the internal temperature; c represents the specific heat capacity of water; m represents the mass flow rate; Indicates the return water temperature; represents the water supply temperature; n represents the number of people; q represents the calorific value per person; represents the heat dissipation of electrical equipment; eff represents the system efficiency.

The system can flexibly adjust the operation strategy according to different external environmental conditions, weather changes, personnel activities, etc., to ensure indoor comfort while maintaining efficient energy consumption management.

[0018] Preferably, in step S5, the data are input into the actual building physical model, so that the actual building model simulates the thermal environment changes inside the building according to the input data, and the temperature in the actual building is calculated and predicted using the finite element method. The finite element method is expressed by the heat conduction equation, and the steady-state heat conduction equation formula is as follows: ; The formula is combined with the transient heat conduction equation to describe the heat conduction equation, and the formula of the transient heat conduction equation is as follows: ; in, represents temperature; k represents the thermal conductivity of the material; Q represents the heat source term per unit volume; represents the gradient operator; is a divergence operator, which is expressed by the operation of the above equations and the discretized finite element method in matrix form as follows: ; in, represents the hot melt matrix; represents the thermal conductivity matrix; represents the temperature node vector; represents the heat source term vector, which is solved numerically by the formula to obtain the temperature distribution inside the building.

Finally, the individual with the highest fitness is selected from the population as the optimal control strategy to predict the corresponding control input.

[0021] By adopting the above scheme and introducing evolutionary algorithms, the central air-conditioning control strategy can be intelligently optimized, energy consumption can be reduced and the indoor temperature comfort can be maintained. The algorithm can automatically adjust the control strategy according to real-time feedback, improve the system's adaptability to environmental changes, and actively respond to temperature fluctuations.

Step by step solve the temperature distribution of each time step according to the discrete equations ,when When it is less than a set threshold, the iteration and solution are stopped to obtain the physical model of the actual building at different times and spaces.

[0029] Specifically, first, based on the heat conduction theory, a heat conduction model inside the building is established. Set T temperature distribution; α thermal diffusivity; Q heat source term, and use the corresponding heat conduction equation to describe the temperature distribution of the central air-conditioning system in the actual building. This equation can be expressed as a function of space and time, reflecting the changes in the thermal state of the building at different locations and times; The finite difference method is used to discretize the space into grid points for numerical calculation. The specific steps are as follows: Define grid spacing , and , represents the spatial discrete step length of the spacing on the x, y, and z axes; Discretize the temperature distribution into temperature values ​​at the mesh nodes , and , where i, j, k represent the spatial index of the node; For the time direction, an explicit method is used for discretization, and the time step is , the time discretization is ; Temperature discreteness is , represents the temperature value at the nth moment; Combining the heat conduction equation with the discretization results of space and time, a discrete set of equations is derived. This set of equations will be used for subsequent numerical solutions, usually in the following form: ; According to the actual situation of the building, set appropriate boundary conditions to reflect the impact of the real environment on the temperature distribution. The following types of boundary conditions can be set to gradually iterate and solve the temperature distribution of each time step according to the discrete equations. By setting the convergence threshold, the iteration is stopped when the current temperature change is less than the set threshold. This will ensure the accuracy of the solution so that the final building model can accurately reflect its temperature state at different times and spaces.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 ,In step S1, the central air conditioning physical model is constructed using the following expression: ; in, represents the total cooling load; k represents the thermal conductivity of the material; A represents the heat transfer area; Indicates the external temperature; represents the internal temperature; c represents the specific heat capacity of water; m represents the mass flow rate; Indicates the return water temperature; represents the water supply temperature; n represents the number of people; q represents the calorific value per person; represents the heat dissipation of electrical equipment; eff represents the system efficiency.

This process lays a solid foundation for subsequent analysis; based on the processed data, the key features that have a significant impact on indoor temperature changes are extracted. These features may include but are not limited to: external temperature fluctuations, the number of people indoors, the heat generated by electrical equipment, solar radiation, etc. The most representative and influential features are selected from the entire data set using feature selection algorithms or correlation analysis techniques to improve the prediction accuracy of the model; computational models such as regression models, decision trees, support vector machines, etc. are used to perform scene judgment on the extracted key features to output the predicted temperature. At this stage, by training the model, the relationship between the features and the indoor temperature is learned, so that the model can automatically infer the corresponding temperature changes when facing different scenarios. At the same time, cross-validation and other techniques are used to ensure the generalization ability and robustness of the model; in the implementation of the optimization process, the newly collected environmental data needs to be input into the trained machine learning model in real time to predict the indoor temperature at the next moment. Through this process, it is possible to respond quickly to environmental changes and ensure that the central air-conditioning system can be adjusted in time to meet the set comfort standards.

[0035] Specifically, a variety of sensors are installed in key areas of actual buildings (such as air-conditioning vents, near windows, in the center of the room, etc.). These sensors may include temperature sensors, humidity sensors, carbon dioxide concentration sensors, and light sensors to comprehensively monitor environmental parameters and provide a basis for subsequent data analysis; the data collected by the sensors are transmitted to the data processing center in real time through wired and wireless methods.

The stream processing framework is used to analyze real-time data, and efficient database services are used to store real-time operation data. By establishing a unified data storage format, data collected from different sources such as sensors, environmental monitoring equipment, and user feedback are standardized to ensure consistency and comparability between different data sources. This step not only improves data management efficiency, but also simplifies the subsequent data analysis process. In the collected data, data standardization is performed to solve the problem that the data comes from different sources and has different formats. This process includes unified measurement units, format conversion, and missing value processing, making the data easier for subsequent analysis and model application, and using the stream processing framework to analyze real-time data.

The finite element method is expressed by the heat conduction equation, and its steady-state heat conduction equation formula is as follows: ; The formula is combined with the transient heat conduction equation to describe the heat conduction equation, and the formula of the transient heat conduction equation is as follows: ; in, represents temperature; k represents the thermal conductivity of the material; Q represents the heat source term per unit volume; represents the gradient operator; is a divergence operator, which is expressed by the operation of the above equations and the discretized finite element method in matrix form as follows: ; in, represents the hot melt matrix; represents the thermal conductivity matrix; represents the temperature node vector; represents the heat source term vector, which is solved numerically by the formula to obtain the temperature distribution inside the building.

[0039] Specifically, in order to solve the above heat conduction equation, it is necessary to discretize it and express it using the finite element method in matrix form; the discretized equations are solved by numerical methods to obtain the temperature distribution inside the building. Time stepping can be performed using explicit or implicit methods to gradually deduce the temperature changes inside the building; The actual monitoring data and model parameters such as material thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, density and heat source distribution are entered into the actual building physical model.

[0041] Specifically, first, the objective function J is designed according to the final target temperature of the building. On this basis, the control input data is used as the chromosome gene to represent the different control strategies of the system, thereby forming a population that can be used for genetic algorithm operation. A set of control strategies is randomly generated and represented by a coding vector, and then the fitness of each individual in the population is evaluated. The fitness value of each individual is calculated using the objective function G; based on the fitness evaluation, the better individuals are selected for reproduction. A pair of parent individuals is randomly selected for crossover operation to generate new offspring; the offspring are randomly mutated to increase the diversity of the population and avoid local optimal solutions; the above steps are repeated until the termination condition is met, which is usually set to reach the maximum number of generations, or the objective function converges. After the optimization is completed, the individual with the highest fitness is selected from the final population as the optimal control strategy, and the corresponding control input is predicted.

[0042] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: First, a physical model of the actual building and central air-conditioning system is established locally. The model should take into account factors such as the building's geometric shape, material properties, window locations and their thermal insulation performance, and reflect the performance parameters of the central air-conditioning system, such as cooling / heating capacity, air flow path, etc., to ensure that the model is highly consistent with the actual scene; Next, based on the constructed physical model, a multi-scenario simulation environment is established, and corresponding control strategies are designed for different scenarios such as different seasons and different weather conditions. These strategies should cover temperature regulation, humidity control and air circulation to adapt to different user needs and environmental changes; obtain the current environmental parameters of the actual building in real time, including indoor temperature, humidity, wind speed, external temperature, etc. These parameters are input into the constructed physical model to provide basic data for subsequent control decisions; a real-time control feedback mechanism is established to continuously monitor the current indoor temperature and external environmental changes in each time step. Through high-frequency data collection and processing, ensure that the system can respond to environmental changes in a timely manner and maintain indoor comfort; based on the output data of the central air conditioner and the current environmental parameters, this information is entered into the physical model to predict the temperature changes in the actual building. This process requires combining historical data with the current state, and using algorithms to make accurate temperature predictions; finally, all models are iterated using optimization algorithms to determine the optimal control curve based on the prediction results. The optimization algorithm can combine a variety of modern optimization techniques such as genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization to achieve the best balance between maximum energy efficiency and user comfort.
