[0029] S1: Collect multi-source data and select a suitable preprocessing method according to different multi-source data.

[0030] Obtain historical and real-time outdoor temperature data, and use the building automation control system to collect indoor temperature, air-conditioning power, and energy efficiency ratio data. If indoor temperature data is missing, install temperature and humidity sensors for supplementary collection and check the timestamps and integrity of the collected data to ensure there are no missing values or outliers. Finally, use the interpolation method to fill in the missing data points. Apply a filtering algorithm to remove noise and perform normalization processing.

[0031] Furthermore, analyze the characteristic parameters of multi-source parameters to identify the characteristics of the current period and environment. In summer, the external temperature and solar radiation have a greater impact on the indoor temperature, while in winter, it is more dependent on the building's insulation performance. When the weather is hot, increase the weights of the external data and solar radiation data. When the weather is cold, increase the weights of the indoor temperature and heat source data.

[0032] T avg = αT in +(1 - α)T out

[0033] where α represents the weight coefficient, T in represents the indoor temperature, T out represents the outdoor temperature, T avg represents the weighted temperature.

[0034] S2: Calculate the building's equivalent heat capacity and equivalent thermal resistance and precisely calculate the equivalent thermal resistance and equivalent heat capacity through the control method.

[0035] The formulas for calculating the building's equivalent thermal resistance, equivalent heat capacity, and their product are as follows.

[0036]

[0037] where C represents the building's equivalent heat capacity, with the unit of joules per degree Celsius, R represents the building's equivalent thermal resistance, with the unit of degrees Celsius per watt, T in represents the building's indoor temperature, with the unit of degrees Celsius, T out represents the building's outdoor temperature, with the unit of degrees Celsius, ΔT in represents the change in the building's indoor temperature, with the unit of degrees Celsius, and t represents the time interval, with the unit of seconds.

[0039]

[0040] where T in1 represents the building's indoor temperature on similar day 1, with the unit of degrees Celsius, T out1Indicates the outdoor temperature of the building on Similar Day 1, in degrees Celsius, T in2 Indicates the indoor temperature of the building on Similar Day 2, in degrees Celsius, T out2 Indicates the outdoor temperature of the building on Similar Day 2, in degrees Celsius, COP 1 Indicates the air conditioner energy efficiency ratio on Similar Day 1, COP 2 Indicates the air conditioner energy efficiency ratio on Similar Day 2, P AC1 Indicates the operating power of the air conditioner on Similar Day 1, in kilowatts, P AC2 Indicates the operating power of the air conditioner on Similar Day 2, in kilowatts.

[0041] S3: Calculate the comfort level of the human body in different environments according to the PMV model, and determine the adjustable boundary of the air conditioner temperature.

[0042] If the response time ΔT is less than 15 minutes, rigid adjustment is adopted, and the formula is as follows.

[0047] S4: Determine the adjustment strategy according to the response time, and conduct potential evaluation and prediction on the system adjustable potential and the demands of different building types in each time period.

[0048] Considering the specific heat capacity of the circulating water or working medium and the characteristics of the heat exchange equipment, calculate the overall equivalent heat capacity of the system. Based on the equivalent heat capacity and thermal resistance, combined with the expected temperature adjustment range, deduce the adjustable potential of the water system and the circulating working medium in demand response. According to the evaluation results, propose a plan to improve the efficiency and response ability of the circulating system, improve the pipeline layout or replace more efficient heat exchange equipment. The set temperature before demand response is T set0 , and it is adjusted to the set temperature T set1 during response, and the required response duration is Δt DR, before the response, the coefficient of performance (COP) of the air conditioner is used to calculate the adjustable potential of the thermal inertia of the building envelope.

[0055] Among them, ΔP AC represents the adjustable potential of the building air-conditioning system, in watts; ΔP ps represents the adjustable potential of the thermal inertia of the building envelope, in watts; ΔP cyc represents the adjustable potential of the air-conditioning water circulation system or the working medium and the corresponding heat exchange equipment, in watts.

[0056] Embodiment 2 is an embodiment of the present invention, which provides an air-conditioning demand response potential evaluation method applied to distribution network planning. In order to verify the beneficial effects of the present invention, scientific demonstration is carried out through economic benefit calculation and simulation experiments.

[0057] First, multiple data sources are collected for the evaluation of the air-conditioning demand response potential. These data include: outdoor temperature, solar radiation, indoor temperature, air-conditioning power, and the coefficient of performance of the air conditioner, etc. To ensure the accuracy of the data, the summer night time when no one is using is selected to avoid the interference of internal heat sources and minimize solar radiation. All data are from multiple geographical regions to ensure representativeness.

[0058] For the heat exchange characteristics of each building, the equivalent heat capacity and equivalent thermal resistance were calculated. Using the control method, the experimental data in existing literature were compared to ensure the accuracy of the calculation results. Through this precise calculation, the thermal inertia and heat exchange characteristics of the building can be better understood, providing a solid foundation for the assessment of air-conditioning demand response.

[0059] In the process of establishing the air-conditioning demand response model, the PMV model was adopted to calculate the comfort level of the human body under different environmental conditions. By combining the temperature and humidity information inside the building and the human body metabolic rate, the adjustable boundaries of the air-conditioning temperature under different environments were determined. To ensure that the comfort level is between -0.5 and +0.5 and meet the energy-saving requirements, the upper and lower limits of the indoor temperature were adjusted.

[0060] According to the different response times, the adjustment strategies were further developed. For the air-conditioning systems with a response time less than 15 minutes, a rigid adjustment strategy was adopted, that is, the indoor temperature was adjusted by a fixed amplitude within the specified time; while for the air-conditioning systems with a longer response time, a flexible adjustment strategy was designed to gradually adjust the temperature to avoid overloading the system. Based on these data and models, the adjustable potential of the system was evaluated, and the demand response predictions for different building types and each time period were obtained.

[0061] In the final evaluation process, the system considered the specific heat capacity of the water circulation system and the characteristics of the heat exchange equipment, and calculated the total adjustable potential of the building air-conditioning system. After comprehensively considering various factors, the air-conditioning control strategy of the building was optimized, and the mapping relationship between the air-conditioning power and the outdoor temperature was established within a certain area range, predicting the demand response potential of different buildings in different seasons and time periods.

[0062] Table 1 Experimental data table

[0063]

[0064]

[0065] Through the tabular data, the differences in the air-conditioning demand response potential of different buildings under different environmental conditions were compared. The parameters listed in the table are the outdoor temperature, indoor temperature, air-conditioning power, energy efficiency ratio, equivalent heat capacity, and equivalent thermal resistance, and these parameters are crucial for the assessment of the demand response potential.

[0066] The outdoor temperature of Building A is 35°C, while the outdoor temperature of Building C is lower at 25°C. It can be seen that the air-conditioning power of Building A is higher, reaching 5.2 kW, while the air-conditioning power of Building C is 4.3 kW. This difference indicates that in a high-temperature environment, the load of the building air-conditioning system is large and the power demand increases significantly. This also shows that under high-temperature conditions, the adjustment potential of the air-conditioning system is large and the space for demand response is wider.

[0067] The difference in the energy efficiency ratio reflects the energy efficiency performance of different building air-conditioning systems. The COP of Building B is 4.1, showing a relatively good energy efficiency level, while the COP of Building D is slightly lower, at 3.7. A higher energy efficiency ratio means that the system can provide the same cooling effect with lower energy consumption. Therefore, the adjustable potential of the system will be relatively high, and it can respond to grid demands more effectively.

[0068] The calculation results of the equivalent heat capacity and equivalent thermal resistance also reflect the thermal inertia characteristics of different buildings. The larger the equivalent heat capacity, the slower the building responds to temperature changes, and the adjustment strategy needs to be adjusted accordingly. The equivalent heat capacity of Building A is 7200 kJ / K, and that of Building B is 6800 kJ / K. Due to its higher heat capacity, Building A requires more time to respond during temperature adjustment and may need to adopt a flexible adjustment strategy; while Building B is suitable for adopting a rigid adjustment strategy.

[0069] Example 3, an embodiment of the present invention, provides an air-conditioning demand response potential evaluation system applied to distribution network planning, including a collection and processing module, a calculation module, and an evaluation and prediction module.

[0070] The collection and processing module is used to obtain key data such as outdoor temperature, solar radiation, indoor temperature, air-conditioning power, and energy efficiency ratio and perform preprocessing.

[0071] The calculation module is used to select the internal and external temperature data during the summer night when no one is using, calculate the equivalent heat capacity and equivalent thermal resistance of the building, calculate the comfort level of the human body in different environments according to the PMV model, and determine the adjustable boundary of the air-conditioning temperature.

[0072] The evaluation and prediction module is used for systems with a response time less than 15 minutes, adopting a rigid adjustment strategy, and for systems with a response time greater than 15 minutes, adopting a flexible adjustment strategy. Calculate the adjustable potential of the air-conditioning under the two adjustment strategies respectively. For water-system air-conditioning, consider the thermal inertia of the building envelope and the adjustable potential of the water circulation system, comprehensively evaluate the total adjustable potential of the building air-conditioning system. Based on the annual outdoor temperature data of the region, establish a mapping relationship between the air-conditioning power and the outdoor temperature, and predict the demand response potential of different building types at different times throughout the year.
