The air conditioning rotary dehumidification system is a common dehumidification equipment, widely used in industrial, commercial and civil buildings to adjust the air humidity. However, traditional control methods mainly rely on empirical rules or simple feedback control, which makes it difficult to achieve the optimal operation of the system, resulting in high energy consumption. The existing control methods mainly rely on empirical rules or simple feedback control, which makes it difficult to achieve the optimal operation of the system. Most of them are based on experience or simple set value control, and do not fully consider the complex relationship between the various parameters in the system and the changes in actual operating conditions, resulting in serious energy waste and high operating costs. With the increasing requirements for energy conservation and emission reduction, how to reduce system energy consumption by optimizing control methods has become an urgent problem to be solved.

This technical solution has the effect of facilitating the central air-conditioning system to maintain efficient operation.
[0004] For example, a Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN104633857B discloses an air conditioning energy-saving optimization control method and device, including: collecting and storing the current operating parameters of the air conditioning system's chiller unit, chilled water pump, and cooling water pump according to a preset cycle; determining the energy consumption increment of the air conditioning system under the operating state of the operating parameters to be adjusted relative to the current operating state according to the current operating parameters and the operating parameters to be adjusted input by the user; when the energy consumption increment is less than zero, adjusting the operating state of the air conditioning system according to the operating parameters to be adjusted. The air conditioning control method and device provided by this technical solution adjusts the air conditioning system according to the operating parameters to be adjusted when the energy consumption increment is less than zero, thereby achieving energy saving, which is easy to implement.

[0021] (2) Data preprocessing: Clean the collected data to remove outliers and noise; Normalize the data to make different parameters comparable; Sort the data into time series to facilitate subsequent modeling and analysis.
[0022] Step S2: Based on the verified mechanism model, a model predictive control method is used to predict the operating state of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system, and according to the prediction results and the real-time collected operating data, an adaptive learning algorithm and a deep reinforcement learning algorithm are used to dynamically adjust the mechanism model and the model predictive control method; Step S3: Based on the adaptively adjusted mechanism model, the current operating state and load of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system are predicted, and the optimal control input is calculated through the optimization algorithm; Step S4: using intelligent decision-making algorithms and deep reinforcement learning algorithms to correct and iterate the adaptively adjusted mechanism model; Furthermore, the specific steps of step S4 include: (1) Obtaining a mechanism model after adaptive adjustment; (2) Collect and preprocess system operation data; (3) Using a fuzzy logic algorithm to make a preliminary correction to the adaptively adjusted mechanism model, and at the same time, using a deep reinforcement learning algorithm to further optimize the mechanism model and update the parameters. The fuzzy logic algorithm is a prior art in this field and is not an inventive solution of the present application, and will not be described in detail here. (4) Evaluate the performance of the modified and optimized mechanism model and calculate the error index. In the present invention, the error index adopts the mean square error, which is the prior art content in this field and is not the inventive solution of the present application, and will not be described in detail here; (5) Determine whether the termination condition is met. If not, return to (3) and continue iterating; (6) Output the corrected and optimized mechanism model.

[0024] Furthermore, the specific steps of step S5 include: (1) Converting the calculated optimal control input, such as the rotor speed, heating power, and fan air volume, into a control signal for an actuator of the air-conditioning rotor dehumidification system, for example, converting a digital signal into an analog voltage or current signal, wherein the digital-to-analog conversion is a prior art in the art and is not an inventive solution of the present application and is not described in detail herein; (2) transmitting control signals to actuators of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system, such as a frequency converter and a heater controller, through a control system so that the system operates according to the optimal control input; the frequency converter is used to adjust the rotary speed and the fan air volume; the heater controller is used to adjust the heating power; (3) Acquire real-time operation data, transmit the collected real-time operation data to the monitoring center through the wireless communication network, and store it in real time for subsequent analysis and processing; (4) According to the system's operating objectives, set indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of the control strategy, including energy consumption reduction rate, humidity control accuracy, and temperature stability; (5) Calculate the values of various evaluation indicators based on real-time monitoring data.

[0025] For example, the drug production workshop of a large pharmaceutical factory has extremely strict requirements on air humidity. The humidity needs to be controlled between 30%-40%RH to ensure the stability of drug quality. The original air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system adopts traditional control methods, which has high energy consumption and insufficient humidity control accuracy. Humidity fluctuations often exceed the allowable range. To solve these problems, the energy-saving optimization control method based on the mechanism model is adopted to upgrade the system, including: Over a one-month period, high-precision sensors were used to collect real-time historical operating data of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system, including indoor and outdoor air temperature, humidity, rotary speed, regeneration air temperature and flow, fan operating frequency, and system energy consumption. The collection frequency was set to once per minute to ensure data integrity and accuracy. The system scope was determined, including components such as rotary dehumidifiers, regeneration heating devices, fans, and air handling channels. The adsorption characteristics of the desiccant and the mass and heat transfer processes were considered, and the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and mass and energy conservation equations were used to establish a rotary dehumidification model. According to the thermodynamic properties of air, An air heat and moisture exchange model is established to describe the temperature and humidity changes of the air in the system. Performance characteristic models are established for the fan and heating device, such as the air volume-air pressure-power relationship model of the fan and the relationship model between the heating power and temperature and energy consumption of the heating device. The above sub-models are integrated to form a complete mechanism model of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system. The mechanism model is verified using the historical operation data collected in the second half of the month. By comparing the operating status parameters predicted by the model, such as air humidity and temperature, with the actual measured values, the mean square error and mean absolute error are calculated. After multiple parameter adjustments and optimizations, the error is controlled within 5%, indicating that the mechanism model The model has high accuracy and reliability; based on the verified mechanism model, the model predictive control method is adopted, with the next 24 hours as the prediction time domain, to predict the operating status of the air conditioning rotary dehumidification system, taking into account the production plan and weather changes of the pharmaceutical production workshop and other factors, to predict parameters such as air humidity, temperature and energy consumption at different times; the system operation data is collected in real time, the prediction results are compared with the real-time data, and the adaptive learning algorithm is used to dynamically adjust the parameters of the mechanism model according to the error between the two to improve the adaptability of the model. At the same time, the deep reinforcement learning algorithm is introduced to continuously optimize the control strategy of the model predictive control method through the reward mechanism, so that the system The system can better cope with various complex working conditions; combined with the production plan of the pharmaceutical production workshop, the flow of personnel and outdoor weather changes and other factors, the load of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system is predicted. For example, during the peak production period, the heat and humidity generated by the personnel and equipment in the workshop increase, and the system load increases accordingly. During the rest period at night, the load is relatively low; based on the adaptively adjusted mechanism model and model predictive control method, the genetic algorithm is used as the optimization algorithm, with the minimum system energy consumption as the objective function. According to the current operating status and load forecast, the optimal control input is calculated, including the optimal speed of the rotary wheel, the optimal power of the heating device, the optimal frequency of the fan, etc.; Install multiple high-precision sensors at key locations of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system to monitor the system's operating status in real time, including air temperature, humidity, flow, rotary speed, temperature and power of the heating device and other parameters. The sensor data is updated every 10 seconds to ensure that the real-time changes of the system can be reflected in a timely manner. The real-time monitored operating data is input into the mechanism model, and an intelligent decision-making algorithm is used to determine whether the mechanism model needs to be corrected based on the data changes. At the same time, the deep reinforcement learning algorithm is used to iteratively update the mechanism model through continuous learning and optimization, so that the mechanism model can more accurately reflect the actual operation of the system. The calculated optimal control input is sent to the execution of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system. Mechanisms, such as adjusting the speed of the rotary motor, the power of the heating device, the frequency of the fan, etc., are used to implement the control strategy; the operating status and energy consumption of the system are monitored in real time, the air humidity control accuracy and system energy consumption before and after the implementation of the control strategy are compared, and evaluation indicators, such as humidity control error rate and energy consumption reduction rate, are set. If the humidity control error rate exceeds 3% or the energy consumption reduction rate does not reach the expected target, then according to the evaluation results, the parameters in the control strategy are readjusted, such as adjusting the prediction time domain of the model predictive control method, the parameters of the optimization algorithm, etc., for further optimization; after running for a predetermined time, the energy-saving optimization control method of the air-conditioning rotary dehumidification system has achieved good results, the air humidity control accuracy has been significantly improved, and the humidity fluctuation range is controlled within ±1% RH, which meets the strict requirements of the pharmaceutical production workshop. At the same time, the system energy consumption is reduced by more than 25%, reducing production costs.
