Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data processing, and in particular to a building energy consumption optimization method based on BIM. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous expansion of building scale and functionality, building energy consumption has become a significant component of total energy consumption, accounting for a significant portion. This is particularly true in large public buildings, complexes, and smart campuses. Building operations involve multiple energy-intensive equipment, including heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, and ventilation systems. Their operational status is influenced by a combination of factors, including external climate conditions, building structural characteristics, and occupant behavior. Consequently, energy consumption changes exhibit a high degree of spatiotemporal dynamics and multidimensional coupling. Existing building energy management methods typically rely on static BIM models for structural and equipment modeling and analysis, or on energy consumption data collected by a single type of sensor for energy consumption assessment. These methods often fail to achieve deep integration of multi-source data and lack the ability to globally correlate building operational status within a unified spatiotemporal framework. Furthermore, existing energy consumption prediction and optimization technologies are mostly based on empirical rules or single-dimensional mathematical models, failing to fully consider the dynamic interactions between structural information, equipment parameters, occupant behavior, and environmental factors. This results in limited prediction accuracy, making it difficult for optimization strategies to achieve stable and significant energy savings in actual operation.

[0003] In summary, traditional building energy consumption optimization methods still have technical problems in building energy consumption management, such as difficulty in spatiotemporal fusion of multi-source data, difficulty in accurately modeling dynamic coupling relationships, and lack of real-time adaptability of control vectors. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention provides a building energy consumption optimization method based on BIM to solve the technical problems in building energy consumption management, such as difficulty in spatiotemporal fusion of multi-source data, difficulty in accurate modeling of dynamic coupling relationships, and lack of real-time adaptability of control vectors.

[0005] The present invention provides a BIM-based building energy consumption optimization method, which specifically includes the following technical solutions: A building energy consumption optimization method based on BIM, comprising the following steps: S1. Obtain the raw data of the target building and preprocess it to obtain preprocessed raw data; map the preprocessed raw data to the BIM model to obtain a dynamic BIM data model and construct a five-dimensional spatiotemporal feature tensor; perform dimensionality reduction and compression transformation on the five-dimensional spatiotemporal feature tensor to obtain a compressed three-dimensional tensor; based on the compressed three-dimensional tensor, introduce acceleration terms, nonlinear growth terms, and inhibition terms, and combine them with the behavior-device coupling inhibition weight to construct a disturbance response function; S2. Based on the disturbance response function, control inversion processing is performed to obtain a preliminary control vector, and the trajectory of the preliminary control vector is analyzed to obtain a quantitative index of path energy consumption. Based on the quantitative index of path energy consumption, a control path evolution mechanism is introduced to optimize and adjust the preliminary control vector to obtain an optimized and adjusted control vector. The optimized and adjusted control vector is converted into a control signal to achieve building energy consumption optimization.

[0006] Preferably, the S1 specifically includes: Based on the dynamic BIM data model, the geometric structure, material parameters, equipment parameters, behavior patterns and multi-dimensional time series sensor data of the components are derived and combined in the form of quintuples to generate a five-dimensional spatiotemporal feature tensor.

[0007] Preferably, the S1 specifically includes: The behavior-time weight is introduced and combined with the logarithmic function to perform dimensionality reduction and compression transformation on the five-dimensional spatiotemporal feature tensor to obtain a three-dimensional tensor after compression transformation. A sliding window is introduced to construct a time-based three-dimensional tensor sequence after compression transformation.

[0008] Preferably, the S2 specifically includes: Based on the disturbance response function and the disturbance domain mapping function, an objective function is constructed, and control inversion processing is performed to inversely deduce the control vector solution required to minimize the objective function and obtain a preliminary control vector; the disturbance domain mapping function is constructed based on a differentiable physical control model.

[0009] Preferably, the S2 specifically includes: Based on the disturbance domain mapping function, the behavior-driven disturbance and the device response disturbance are decomposed and integrated into the preliminary control vector trajectory in combination with the behavior impact weight coefficient to obtain the quantitative index of path energy consumption.

[0010] Preferably, the S2 specifically includes: In the process of implementing the control path evolution mechanism, the preliminary control vector is optimized and adjusted based on the disturbance response function and combined with the adjustment rate factor to obtain the optimized and adjusted control vector.

[0011] Preferably, the S2 specifically includes: The adjustment rate factor is obtained by normalizing the path energy consumption quantification index and calculating it in combination with a preset adjustment rate range threshold.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the technical solution of the present invention are: 1. By treating the evolution of building energy consumption as a perturbation flow driven by the coupling of geometric structure, material parameters, and equipment parameters, a physically meaningful perturbation response function is constructed to quantify and track the dynamic trends of energy consumption. This perturbation response function incorporates acceleration terms, nonlinear growth terms, and suppression terms. It can simultaneously reflect the inhibitory effects of sudden load changes, cumulative energy effects, and behavior-equipment interactions on energy consumption, thereby more accurately depicting the energy consumption evolution mechanism of buildings under different operating conditions.

[0013] 2. By constructing a disturbance domain mapping function, a differentiable physical correlation model is established between the device control parameters and the energy consumption disturbance. A preliminary control vector is obtained through inverse optimization. This enables a direct derivation from dynamic energy consumption targets to specific executable control instructions, avoiding the rigidity of traditional strategies based on experience or static optimization, and enabling the control vector to adapt to changes in energy consumption characteristics under different time periods and operating conditions. At the same time, a path energy consumption quantification indicator is introduced to integrally evaluate the energy consumption trend of the preliminary control vector trajectory in the disturbance field. This allows the selection of a control path with low execution cost and high stability from multiple candidate paths that meet the disturbance suppression goal, thereby reducing energy consumption fluctuations and reduced comfort caused by improper control vector selection.
