Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of low-carbon technology, specifically to a method for predicting and optimizing carbon emissions from campus functional clusters. Background Technology

[0002] Campus functional clusters refer to groups of buildings in the overall campus plan that are centrally located according to functional type, provide unified service facilities, share site resources, and are constructed simultaneously or in phases. Their boundaries are naturally enclosed by campus roads, green spaces, or underground pipe networks, and they share a unified function, such as teaching, research and experimentation, student dormitories, administrative offices, and living facilities. Carbon emissions from campus functional clusters refer to all direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions generated by the operation of buildings within a complete operating year.

[0003] Carbon emission prediction and optimization of campus functional clusters has become a key link in reducing the carbon footprint of university operations, thus achieving campus-scale carbon reduction goals at the planning stage. Existing technologies, such as CN117648872B, disclose a "multi-objective optimization method for energy conservation and carbon reduction in urban blocks based on machine learning." This method takes urban blocks as the object, establishes simulations of building energy consumption and photovoltaic power generation, and then couples an ensemble learning surrogate model with the NSGA-II genetic algorithm to perform multi-objective optimization of building energy consumption, photovoltaic power generation, and carbon emissions in the urban block, ultimately outputting a Pareto front solution.

[0004] However, when this technology is directly applied to campus functional cluster scenarios: its proxy model is constructed using a block-scale one-time sampling-batch training method, which leads to the "averaging" of the mapping relationship between spatial morphology parameters and carbon emissions. When there are differences in the functional types of clusters, the model prediction error is significantly amplified. At the same time, multi-objective optimization needs to simultaneously weigh the three objectives of energy consumption, production capacity, and carbon emissions. The optimization results are diluted in response to the single requirement of "minimizing carbon emissions," and cannot provide a spatial morphology solution with the lowest carbon emissions under the condition of a long heating season in cold regions. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the issue that existing technologies for predicting carbon emissions from campus functional clusters do not specifically analyze and process the functional, morphological, and regional characteristics of campus clusters, thus making them unsuitable for predicting carbon emissions from campus clusters, this invention proposes a method for predicting and optimizing carbon emissions from campus functional clusters.

[0006] This invention is achieved through the following scheme:

[0007] A method for predicting and optimizing carbon emissions from campus functional clusters includes:

[0008] S100: Within the visual programming platform, construct a 3D model based on campus building geometry data and divide it into functional clusters; construct an energy consumption simulation model and a solar power generation potential simulation model;

[0009] S200: Input the energy consumption driving parameters of each cluster of buildings into the energy consumption simulation model, and input the solar power generation boundary parameters into the solar power generation potential simulation model. Based on the output data of the two models and urban data, calculate the carbon emission intensity of the cluster of buildings.

[0010] S300: Select spatial morphological parameters that have a significant impact on carbon emission intensity from the three-dimensional model as sensitive parameters;

[0011] S400: Using sensitive parameters, urban data, and cluster functional types as inputs, and cluster building carbon emission intensity as output, a cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model is constructed.

[0012] S500: The cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model is iteratively optimized by using a swarm intelligence evolutionary algorithm within the initial values ​​and constraints of sensitive parameters to determine the optimal cluster carbon emission model.

[0013] S600: Adopting a cluster carbon emission optimization model, with the single objective of minimizing building carbon emission intensity, it optimizes the target campus functional clusters and outputs their final spatial morphology parameters and the corresponding minimum building carbon emission intensity.

[0014] Furthermore, the functional grouping includes: teaching building group, library group, laboratory building group, dormitory building group, canteen group, and activity center group.

[0024] Furthermore, the city data includes: city number, city meteorological data, and city carbon emission factor;

[0025] The urban carbon emission factors include: thermal carbon emission factors and electricity carbon emission factors.

[0026] Furthermore, the spatial morphology parameters in the three-dimensional spatial morphology model include total building area, site area, site length-to-width ratio, plot ratio, building density, average building height, maximum building height, building height standard deviation, shape coefficient, perimeter-to-area ratio, facade-to-roof area ratio, building orientation, number of buildings, average building length, average building depth, building height-to-depth ratio, sky exposure coefficient, and sky viewing angle coefficient.

[0027] Furthermore, the method for filtering the sensitive parameters includes:

[0028] Correlation analysis was conducted between carbon emission intensity and cluster spatial morphology parameters. Candidate parameters were selected based on the criteria that the correlation coefficient was greater than a preset threshold A and the significance coefficient was less than a preset threshold B.

[0029] Then, multiple linear regression analysis was performed on carbon emission intensity and candidate parameters, and sensitive parameters were screened out based on the variance inflation factor being greater than the preset threshold C.

[0030] Furthermore, the construction of the cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model also includes training the cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model using at least three supervised machine learning algorithms, the training methods including:

[0031] 1) Divide the sample dataset into training set, validation set and test set according to a preset ratio;

[0032] 2) Within the hyperparameter search range, perform hyperparameter tuning for each machine learning algorithm;

[0033] 3) Use the training set to complete model training, use the validation set to optimize hyperparameters, use the test set to evaluate prediction accuracy and computational cost, and select the campus functional cluster carbon emission prediction model with the best overall performance.

[0034] Furthermore, the method for determining the cluster carbon emission optimization model using swarm intelligence evolutionary algorithm includes:

[0035] 1) Couple the carbon emission intensity prediction model with each intelligent optimization algorithm to construct different candidate carbon emission optimization models;

[0036] 2) Input the initial values ​​and limiting ranges of the spatial morphology parameters of the clusters into each candidate carbon emission optimization model;

[0037] 3) Iterate through each candidate carbon emission optimization model and output the final spatial morphology parameters, building carbon emission intensity, and the numerical changes of both during the iteration process;

[0038] 4) Compare the optimization performance of each candidate optimization model and determine the one with the best performance as the optimization model for carbon emissions from university campus buildings in cold regions.

[0039] Furthermore, during the iterative operation of each candidate carbon emission optimization model, the hyperparameters of each intelligent optimization algorithm are tuned, and an elite retention mechanism is used to maintain the optimal solution across generations. The optimal model is selected by using the optimization effect of carbon emission intensity, running time, and resource consumption as evaluation indicators.

[0040] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0041] This invention takes into account the spatial morphology and building power consumption characteristics of functional clusters in cold-region campuses, as well as the regional and climatic characteristics of cold-region cities. It combines the advantages of performance simulation methods and machine learning methods to achieve rapid prediction of building carbon emission intensity based on the spatial morphology parameters of functional clusters, and automatic optimization of the spatial morphology parameters of functional clusters under carbon reduction targets. This effectively assists architects in carrying out low-carbon design of functional clusters in cold-region campuses within a limited design cycle. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Specific Implementation Method 1

[0057] This is a flowchart illustrating the method of this embodiment. This embodiment provides an implementation process for a method for predicting and optimizing carbon emissions from campus functional clusters, as described in this invention:

[0058] S100: Within the visual programming platform, construct a 3D model based on campus building geometry data and divide it into clusters according to function; construct an energy consumption simulation model and a solar power generation potential simulation model.

[0059] Specifically, vector data of the base contours and elevation data of buildings on university campuses in cold regions are extracted, and the data is input into a visualization programming platform to establish a three-dimensional spatial morphological model of the campus buildings.

[0136] S400: Using sensitive parameters, city data, and cluster functional types as inputs, and cluster building carbon emission intensity as output, a cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model is constructed.

[0137] The construction of the cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model also includes training the cluster carbon emission intensity prediction model using at least three supervised machine learning algorithms. The training methods include:

[0138] 1) Divide the sample dataset into training set, validation set and test set according to a preset ratio;

[0139] 2) Within the hyperparameter search range, perform hyperparameter tuning for each machine learning algorithm;

[0140] 3) Use the training set to complete model training, use the validation set to optimize hyperparameters, use the test set to evaluate prediction accuracy and computational cost, and select the campus functional cluster carbon emission prediction model with the best overall performance.

Computational cost is determined by training time, prediction time, and memory usage.

[0142] S500: Utilizes a swarm intelligence evolutionary algorithm to iteratively optimize within the initial values ​​and constraints of sensitive parameters, thereby determining the optimal model for cluster carbon emissions.

[0143] The method for determining the optimal model for cluster carbon emissions using swarm intelligence evolutionary algorithms includes:

[0144] 1) Couple the carbon emission intensity prediction model with each intelligent optimization algorithm to construct different candidate carbon emission optimization models;

[0145] 2) Input the initial values ​​and limiting ranges of the spatial morphology parameters of the clusters into each candidate carbon emission optimization model;

[0146] 3) Iterate through each candidate carbon emission optimization model and output the final spatial morphology parameters, building carbon emission intensity, and the numerical changes of both during the iteration process;

[0147] 4) Compare the optimization performance of each candidate optimization model and determine the one with the best performance as the optimization model for carbon emissions from university campus buildings in cold regions.

[0148] During the iterative operation of each candidate carbon emission optimization model, the hyperparameters of each intelligent optimization algorithm are tuned, and an elite retention mechanism is used to maintain the optimal solution for each generation. The optimal model is selected by using the optimization effect of carbon emission intensity, running time and resource consumption as evaluation indicators.

[0149] Specifically, the optimization objective is to minimize carbon emission intensity. Candidate carbon emission optimization models are iteratively run, with hyperparameters adjusted in each iteration, generating many different combinations of spatial morphological parameters. Each combination is considered a "child generation." Among all children, only the "optimal child" with the lowest carbon emission intensity is retained and directly enters the next generation. Other children are eliminated. The vacated positions from eliminated children are used to generate new children through random mutation, continuing the trial-and-error process. After repeating this process multiple times, if the carbon emission intensity can no longer be reduced, the minimum carbon emission condition is considered to have been reached. The percentage of carbon emission optimization, the runtime of this run, and resource consumption are recorded at this point.

[0150] After each candidate carbon emission optimization model has completed the above operations, the carbon emission optimization percentage, running time, and resource consumption of each candidate model are used as evaluation indicators. These three indicators are converted into dimensionless scores in the range of 0-1, and then weighted and summed according to predetermined weights to obtain the score. The model with the highest score among all candidate models is selected as the optimal carbon emission optimization model.

[0151] The spatial morphological parameters at this point can be used as the optimized design standard.

[0152] In this embodiment, the swarm intelligence evolutionary algorithm includes the genetic algorithm GA, the particle swarm optimization algorithm PSO, and the differential evolution algorithm DE. The search range of hyperparameters is shown in Table 4.

[0153] S600: Adopting a cluster carbon emission optimization model, with the single objective of minimizing building carbon emission intensity, it optimizes the target campus functional clusters and outputs their final spatial morphology parameters and the corresponding minimum building carbon emission intensity.

[0154] To verify the beneficial effects of the present invention, the following experiments were conducted:

[0155] This embodiment uses a cluster of teaching buildings on a university campus in Beijing as an example, and conducts an experiment using the campus functional cluster carbon emission prediction and optimization method described in this invention, with reference to... Figure 2 This is a flowchart of this embodiment. The experimental steps are as follows:

[0156] Step 1: Extract the building base contour vector data and elevation data of 1711 functional clusters of university campuses in cold regions, establish a three-dimensional spatial morphology model on the visualization programming platform, and label the functional type of the cluster. At the same time, extract the meteorological data of the city where the functional cluster is located.

[0157] Step 2: In the visual programming platform, pick up the spatial morphological parameters of the functional groups of the university campus in the cold region, including total building area, site area, site length-to-width ratio, plot ratio, building density, average building height, maximum building height, building height standard deviation, shape coefficient, perimeter-to-area ratio, facade-to-roof area ratio, building orientation, number of buildings, average building length, average building depth, building height-to-depth ratio, sky exposure coefficient, and sky viewing angle coefficient.

[0158] Step 3: Use a visual programming platform to build an energy consumption simulation model for the functional clusters of a university campus in a cold region. Based on the functional type of the building clusters, input baseline values ​​for parameters such as occupancy rate, lighting power, electrical equipment power, ventilation intensity, and cooling and heating temperature setpoints, along with their variations during working and rest periods. Set the heating season, cooling season, and university holidays for the year. Set the building envelope parameters. Input the three-dimensional spatial form of the functional clusters and the meteorological parameters of the city into the energy consumption simulation model, and output the annual cooling energy consumption, heating energy consumption, lighting energy consumption, electrical equipment energy consumption, and energy intensity of the functional clusters.

[0159] Step 4: Use a visual programming platform to build a simulation model of the solar power generation potential of functional clusters on a university campus based on spatial morphology. Set the photovoltaic module conversion efficiency, system loss efficiency, roof installation coefficient, and facade installation coefficient. Input the three-dimensional spatial morphology of the functional clusters and the meteorological parameters of the city into the solar power generation potential model, and output the annual solar power generation and solar power intensity of the functional clusters.

[0160] Step 5: Based on the annual cooling energy consumption, heating energy consumption, lighting energy consumption, electrical equipment energy consumption and solar power generation of the functional cluster, and combined with the thermal carbon emission factor and electricity carbon emission factor of the city, calculate the building carbon emission intensity of the functional cluster.

[0161] Step 6: Through correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis, we can identify the spatial morphological parameters that affect the carbon emission intensity of buildings in the campus functional clusters, i.e., sensitive parameters, including: total building area, average building height, standard deviation of building height, shape coefficient, facade-to-roof area ratio, and building height-to-depth ratio.

[0162] Step 7: Using the aforementioned sensitive parameters, city data, and functional type as inputs, and building carbon emission intensity as output, establish a prediction model for the building carbon emission intensity of campus functional clusters. Train the prediction model using artificial neural networks, support vector machines, and random forest machine learning algorithms. Comparisons show that the prediction model with the best prediction accuracy for campus functional cluster building carbon emission intensity—an ANN model with 100, 70, and 70 neurons in the hidden layers—achieved a prediction accuracy of 95.37%. The model's alpha = 0.0001, learning_rate = 0.01, max_iter = 1000, and patience = 15.

[0163] Step 8: Combine the carbon emission prediction model for functional cluster buildings with the optimal prediction accuracy with optimization algorithms such as genetic algorithm, particle swarm optimization, and differential evolution algorithm to establish an optimization model for carbon emissions of functional cluster buildings in university campuses in cold regions. Input the initial values ​​and constraints of the spatial morphology parameters of the campus functional clusters, and output the final spatial morphology parameters, building carbon emission intensity, and the changes in their values ​​during iterative optimization.

[0164] The total construction area of ​​this complex is 86,840 square meters. The values ​​remain unchanged during the optimization process. The initial value for the average building height is 80m, with a limiting range of 4-80m. The initial value for the standard deviation of building height is 1.43m, with a limiting range of 0-28m. The initial value for the shape coefficient is 0.16, with a limiting range of 0.08-0.62. The initial value for the facade-to-roof area ratio is 11.68, with a limiting range of 0.25-11. The initial value for the building height-to-depth ratio is 0.24, with a limiting range of 0.08-2.5.
