[0029] Figure 1 A flowchart of an AI-based central air-conditioning system control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations where the operating parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system are adjusted in real time based on the AI ​​computing power large model and real-time environmental parameters. The method can be executed by an AI-based central air-conditioning system control device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software and can generally be configured in an electronic device with data processing capabilities. The electronic device can be a terminal or a server and is used in conjunction with the central air-conditioning system.

[0030] Correspondingly, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method may include:

[0031] S110 , obtaining real-time environmental parameters that match the central air-conditioning system, and obtaining current operating parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system.

[0032] A central air conditioning system is a centralized air conditioning system that provides air conditioning services to one or more areas through one or more central units. This system typically includes refrigeration equipment, air handling equipment, air delivery equipment, and control systems, and is designed to provide a comfortable indoor environment for a large building or multiple smaller buildings.

[0033] In a central air-conditioning system, there are multiple hardware devices, and there is a certain linkage control relationship between two or more hardware devices. Based on this, the hardware devices with the linkage control relationship are called linkage control devices in the central air-conditioning system.

[0034] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned linkage control devices may include: a refrigeration host, a chilled water delivery loop, a cooling water delivery loop, a cooling tower, a central air-conditioning terminal, and an air handling device.

[0035] The cooling unit, also known as a chiller, is the core component of a central air conditioning system, responsible for generating cooling. Depending on the structural information of the building the central air conditioning system is designed for, multiple cooling units can be installed within the system. These units are typically housed in a refrigeration room.

[0036] The chilled water delivery loop, consisting of a chilled water pump and chilled water pipes, is responsible for delivering the cooling capacity generated by the refrigeration unit to each terminal device (i.e., the central air-conditioning terminal). The chilled water pump can be understood as the power device that drives the chilled water circulation. A central air-conditioning system generally includes multiple chilled water pumps and multiple sets of adjustable valves.

[0037] The cooling water supply loop, consisting of a cooling water pump and cooling water piping, is responsible for transferring heat generated by the refrigeration unit to the cooling tower for dissipation. The cooling water pump can be understood as the device that drives the cooling water circulation. A central air conditioning system typically includes multiple cooling water pumps.

[0038] Cooling towers are used to dissipate heat from cooling water into the atmosphere, thereby enabling the recycling of cooling water. A central air conditioning system generally includes multiple cooling towers.

[0039] Central air conditioning terminals, such as fan coil units or air conditioning units, are responsible for transferring the cooling energy of chilled water to indoor air to regulate the indoor temperature.

[0040] Air handling equipment, such as a fresh air unit, is used to filter, heat, cool, humidify or dehumidify the air entering the room to ensure the quality of the indoor air.

[0041] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, the real-time environmental parameters may include: outdoor temperature and humidity values, outdoor wind speed values, and regional temperature and humidity values ​​of each air duct area in the building controlled by the central air-conditioning system.

[0042] As mentioned above, a central air-conditioning system can generally be configured in a building, and the central air-conditioning system is used to control the building. The central air-conditioning system includes multiple central air-conditioning terminals (typically, fan coil units). Each central air-conditioning terminal is used to regulate the temperature and humidity in the air duct area where it is located, so that the air duct area can achieve dynamic balance at the expected temperature and humidity values ​​pre-set by the user. For example, a building can include multiple rooms, and a central air-conditioning terminal can be independently set in each room. The room where each central air-conditioning terminal is set is the air duct area regulated by the central air-conditioning terminal. Accordingly, by collecting the temperature and humidity in each air duct area, the regional temperature and humidity values ​​corresponding to each air duct area can be obtained. The corresponding equipment operating status and temperature and humidity change trend of each area are the load characteristics of the area.

[0043] The current operating parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system include: the current number of cooling towers started and stopped, the current operating frequency of the fans in each currently started cooling tower, the current number of cooling water pumps started and stopped, the current operating frequency of each currently started cooling water pump, the current number of refrigeration hosts started and stopped in the refrigeration room, and the current chilled water outlet temperature of the currently started refrigeration host.

[0044] The number of cooling towers currently on and off can be understood as the number of cooling towers currently on and off, among all cooling towers in the central air conditioning system. Each cooling tower contains a cooling tower fan mounted on its top. This fan accelerates heat exchange between the cooling water and air through forced ventilation, reducing the temperature of the cooling water returning to the refrigeration unit. Accordingly, the current operating frequency of the fans in each currently on cooling tower refers to the current operating frequency of each cooling tower fan that is currently on.

[0045] The number of cooling water pumps currently started and stopped can be understood as the number of cooling water pumps currently started and stopped among all cooling water pumps in the central air conditioning system. The cooling water pump's current operating frequency refers to the power supply frequency driving the cooling water pump's motor, measured in Hertz (Hz), which directly affects the pump's speed and flow rate.

[0046] The current number of cooling units started and stopped in the cooling room can be understood as the number of cooling units currently started and stopped among all cooling units in the central air conditioning system. The current chilled water outlet temperature of the cooling units refers to the current chilled water temperature at the evaporator outlet of the chiller. This parameter directly affects the cooling performance and energy efficiency of the air conditioning system.

[0047] S120. Input the real-time environmental parameters and the current operating parameters into the pre-built AI computing power model. Through the linkage calculation between multiple functional sub-models in the AI ​​computing power model, the target control parameters corresponding to each linkage control device are calculated in real time.

[0048] In this embodiment, a large AI computing power model is pre-trained, and multiple interconnected functional sub-models are integrated into the large AI computing power model. Through the linkage calculation of these functional sub-models, the target control parameters that make the operating state of each linkage control device reach the optimal or local optimal state can be calculated. Among them, the optimal or local optimal operating state of the linkage control device can be understood as one or more parameters such as the cooling efficiency of the cooling tower water pump, the host performance coefficient of the refrigeration host, or the chilled water delivery efficiency of the chilled water pump reaching the optimal state.

[0049] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, the functional sub-models in the AI ​​computing power model may include: a load model, a refrigeration room model, and a cooling water system model;

[0050] Accordingly, through the linkage calculation between multiple functional sub-models in the AI ​​computing power model, the target control parameters corresponding to each linkage control device are calculated in real time, including:

[0051] S1201: Input the regional temperature and humidity values ​​of each air duct area into a pre-trained load model to obtain the estimated regional cooling load value of each air duct area in the target future period predicted by the load model.

[0052] The target future period can be understood as the time period for which advance control is required. Specifically, each day can be divided into time periods according to preset time units, for example, by hour. Furthermore, when the difference between the current system time and the start time of the next period is less than or equal to a preset time length, the estimated regional cooling load value for the next hour (i.e., the target future period) can be determined using the load model prediction.

[0053] In a specific example, when the current system time reaches 2:50 p.m. on each day (or each working day), it is determined to use the load model to predict the estimated regional cooling load value of each duct area in the target future time period from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on that day.

[0054] In this embodiment, the zone cooling load can be understood as the total amount of heat that needs to be removed by the air conditioning system per unit time to maintain a specific duct area within the target temperature and humidity range. The estimated zone cooling load can be understood as the estimated zone cooling load output by the load model.

[0055] Optionally, the load model can be trained by constructing training samples using historical temperature and humidity values ​​collected from the supply and return air ducts of multiple central air conditioning terminals within a building over multiple historical time periods. Different central air conditioning terminals are used to control different air duct areas within the building.

[0056] S1202. Calculate the estimated total cooling load of the building controlled by the central air-conditioning system during the target future period based on the estimated cooling load of each area.

[0057] In this embodiment, after predicting the estimated regional cooling load value of each air duct area in the building in the target future time period through the load model, the estimated overall cooling load value of the building controlled by the central air-conditioning system in the target future time period can be calculated by accumulating and summing the estimated regional cooling load values.

[0058] S1203. Input the estimated total cooling load, the current start-up and stop number of the refrigeration hosts in the refrigeration room, and the current chilled water outlet temperature of the currently started refrigeration hosts into the pre-trained refrigeration room model, and obtain the target start-up number of the refrigeration hosts in the refrigeration room and the target chilled water outlet temperature of the target started refrigeration hosts as target control parameters.

[0059] In this embodiment, a refrigeration room model can be pre-trained. The refrigeration room model aims to maximize the host performance coefficient of the refrigeration host. The model is used to take the estimated total cooling load in the target future time period, the current start-up and stop number of refrigeration hosts in the refrigeration room, and the current chilled water outlet temperature of the currently started refrigeration host as model inputs, and predict the target start-up number of refrigeration hosts in the refrigeration room and the target chilled water outlet temperature of the target started refrigeration hosts when the estimated total cooling load in the target future time period reaches the optimal value.

[0060] Among them, the host performance coefficient is an important indicator to measure the energy utilization efficiency of the refrigeration host. It refers to the ratio of cooling capacity to cooling power consumption under certain working conditions.

[0061] S1204. Input the outdoor temperature and humidity values, outdoor wind speed values, the current number of cooling towers started and stopped, the current operating frequency of the fans in each currently started cooling tower, the current number of cooling water pumps started and stopped, the current operating frequency of each currently started cooling water pump, the target number of refrigeration hosts started in the refrigeration room, and the target chilled water outlet temperature of the target started refrigeration hosts into the pre-trained cooling water system model.

[0062] Similarly, the cooling water system model aims to maximize the chilled water delivery efficiency and is used to take the outdoor temperature and humidity values, the outdoor wind speed values, the current number of cooling towers started and stopped, the current operating frequency of the fans in each currently started cooling tower, the current number of cooling water pumps started and stopped, the current operating frequency of each currently started cooling water pump, the target start-up number of refrigeration hosts in the refrigeration room and the target chilled water outlet temperature of the target started refrigeration hosts as model inputs, and predict the target number of cooling towers started and stopped, the target operating frequency of the fans in each cooling tower started, the target number of cooling water pumps started and stopped and the target operating frequency of each cooling water pump started as target control parameters output by the cooling water system model.

[0063] S1205. Obtain the target number of cooling towers started and stopped, the target operating frequency of the fans in each cooling tower started, the target number of cooling water pumps started and stopped, and the target operating frequency of each cooling water pump started, output by the cooling water system model as target control parameters.

[0064] In this embodiment, when predicting the estimated value of the overall cooling load in the building during the target future time period, the pre-trained refrigeration room model and cooling water system model can be combined to predict the various target control parameters required for the target future time period under the optimal energy-saving effect.

[0065] S130. Adjust parameters of the matching linkage control devices according to the target control parameters to control the central air-conditioning system to achieve energy saving while meeting work requirements.

[0066] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention obtains real-time environmental parameters that match the central air-conditioning system in real time, and obtains the current operating parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system; inputs the real-time environmental parameters and each current operating parameter into a pre-built AI computing power big model, and through the linkage calculation between multiple functional sub-models in the AI ​​computing power big model, obtains the target control parameters corresponding to each linkage control device in real time; the technical means of adjusting the parameters of the matching linkage control devices according to each target control parameter, innovatively establishes an accurate AI computing power big model for the central air-conditioning system, so that the energy is efficiently output, distributed and exchanged between the linkage control devices in the central air-conditioning system, which can control the central air-conditioning system to achieve the goal of energy saving while meeting work requirements, and can perform more intelligent and personalized control of the central air-conditioning system to improve the operating efficiency of the entire central air-conditioning system.

[0067] Based on the above embodiments, before inputting the regional temperature and humidity values ​​of each air duct area into the pre-trained load model, the following steps may be further included:

[0068] S1301. The temperature and humidity sensors installed in the return air duct of each central air-conditioning terminal of the central air-conditioning system are used to collect the historical temperature and humidity values ​​of the return air duct of each central air-conditioning terminal in different historical periods.

[0069] S1302. The temperature sensors provided in the air supply ducts of each central air-conditioning terminal are used to collect historical temperature values ​​of the air supply ducts of each central air-conditioning terminal in different historical periods.

[0070] S1303. Calculate the supply and return air enthalpy difference of each central air conditioning terminal in different historical periods based on the historical temperature and humidity values ​​of each return air channel and the historical temperature value of each supply air channel.

[0071] In this embodiment, the ambient temperature and humidity conditions in different seasons in the same building have a greater impact on the actual temperature and humidity control strategy of the central air-conditioning system. Therefore, it is possible to consider using "one year" as the statistical dimension and counting every hour of every day of each year as the smallest unit of the historical period.

[0072] Furthermore, multiple sets of historical temperature and humidity values ​​for the return air ducts and the historical temperature values ​​for each supply air duct at the same day and hour in different years can be statistically calculated to obtain the supply and return air enthalpy difference for a set hour on a set date in the year. For example, for the historical period of 3:00-4:00 pm on June 21st from 2022 to 2025, multiple sets of historical temperature and humidity values ​​for each return air duct and the historical temperature values ​​for each supply air duct can be obtained for each duct area in the building. Based on these multiple sets of data, multiple supply and return air enthalpy differences can be calculated for each duct area in the building from 3:00-4:00 pm on June 21st.

[0073] The supply-return air enthalpy difference is a core parameter in air conditioning system energy analysis, reflecting the total sensible and latent heat energy consumption during air handling. The supply-return air enthalpy difference can be calculated by taking the difference between the return air enthalpy and the supply air enthalpy.

[0074] In a specific example, the saturated water vapor pressure of the supply air duct and the saturated water vapor pressure of the return air duct can be calculated using a set of historical temperature values ​​of the return air duct and the historical temperature values ​​of the supply air duct. Then, based on the saturated water vapor pressure of the supply air duct and the preset humidity empirical value, the actual water vapor pressure of the supply air duct is calculated, and the actual water vapor pressure of the return air duct is calculated by combining the saturated water vapor pressure of the return air duct and the measured historical humidity value of the return air duct. Furthermore, the humidity content of the supply air duct is calculated based on the actual water vapor pressure of the supply air duct, and the humidity content of the return air duct is calculated based on the actual water vapor pressure of the return air duct. Then, the supply air enthalpy value and the return air enthalpy value are calculated based on the humidity content of the supply air duct and the humidity content of the return air duct, respectively. Finally, based on the supply air enthalpy value and the return air enthalpy value, a supply and return air enthalpy difference is calculated.

[0075] As mentioned above, the return air enthalpy difference at each time point in each historical period can be determined based on the maximum value, minimum value, mean value, variance and other parameters of the return air enthalpy difference calculated for each historical period.

[0076] S1304. By performing an integration operation on the enthalpy differences of the supply and return air, the cooling consumption value of each central air-conditioning terminal in different historical periods is obtained.

[0077] In this embodiment, after obtaining the enthalpy difference of the supply and return air at each time point in each historical period, the cooling consumption value of each central air-conditioning terminal in different historical periods can be obtained through a simple integral operation.

[0078] Typically, the enthalpy differences of the supply and return air at each time point in each historical period are accumulated and summed to obtain the cooling consumption value in each historical period.

[0079] It needs to be emphasized again that the solution of the embodiment of the present invention can efficiently and accurately calculate the cooling consumption value by collecting conventional temperature and humidity data in combination with simple integral calculations, without stopping water supply and installing new metering devices in the central air-conditioning terminal, thereby effectively saving implementation costs.

[0080] S1305. Based on the cooling consumption value of each central air-conditioning terminal in different historical periods, and the control relationship between the central air-conditioning terminal and each air duct area in the building controlled by the central air-conditioning system, obtain the historical cooling load value actually required by each air duct area in different historical periods.

[0081] In this embodiment, since different central air-conditioning terminals are used to regulate different air duct areas in the building, after obtaining the cooling consumption value of each central air-conditioning terminal in different historical periods, the required cooling consumption value of each air duct area in different historical periods can be obtained.

[0082] In an alternative implementation of this embodiment, historical cooling load values ​​corresponding to various cooling consumption values ​​can be calculated based on preset empirical parameters such as cooling energy efficiency ratio, distribution system efficiency, and auxiliary energy consumption. In other words, the historical cooling load values ​​actually required for each duct area during different historical periods can be obtained.

[0083] S1306. Based on the historical cooling load values ​​actually required by each duct area in different historical periods, multiple training samples are constructed, and each training sample is used to train a preset machine learning model to obtain the load model.

[0084] Through the above settings, the estimated regional cooling load of each duct area in the central air-conditioning system in the target future time period can be determined in advance according to the predicted value of the terminal load of the central air-conditioning system. Based on the estimated cooling load of each area, the estimated overall cooling load of the building controlled by the central air-conditioning system in the target future time period can be accurately estimated. Combined with the estimated overall cooling load, the target control parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system can be estimated in advance, and each linkage control device can be adjusted in advance. While improving the air-conditioning experience of indoor personnel, the energy consumption of the central air-conditioning system can be effectively reduced.

[0085] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the electronic device for implementing the AI-based central air-conditioning system control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes data acquisition and communication functions. Through the communication interface with the power equipment control cabinet of the water pump, fan, etc. in the central air-conditioning system, the communication interface with the refrigeration host, the communication interface with the terminal network temperature controller, the communication interface with the third-party building control system network, etc., various types of real-time data can be collected. Then, by reading the instantaneous parameters such as temperature, humidity, pressure, flow and energy for total amount and variable analysis, AI algorithms are introduced for optimization calculations to optimize the operating parameters of the refrigeration host, chilled water pump, cooling water pump, cooling tower and air-conditioning terminal, thereby achieving system energy saving.

[0086] Among them, all collected data are classified according to the corresponding relationship of building space, and the time of all collected data is recorded in the form of timestamp.

[0087] Specifically, the communication interface with the power equipment control cabinets for water pumps, fans, and other components includes a cooling system consisting of a cooling water pump control cabinet and a cooling tower fan control cabinet; and a chilled water distribution system consisting of a chilled water pump control cabinet. By reading and processing the operating parameters of the smart meter and inverter in the variable frequency electric control cabinet, data collection and analysis of the central air conditioning water system distribution equipment is achieved. The power equipment control cabinet communication interface also includes communication access with the control cabinets for the fresh air unit and air conditioning unit. By collecting the operating parameters of the fresh air unit and air conditioning unit, data collection and analysis of the central air conditioning system distribution equipment is achieved. Furthermore, the communication interface with the refrigeration host reads the refrigeration host's operating status, load rate, condenser, and evaporator operating parameters, providing a data basis for evaluating the refrigeration host's efficiency curve and optimizing operating parameters.

[0088] The communication interface with the terminal networked thermostat can read the operating parameters of the networked thermostat, collect and analyze the terminal load and operating status of the central air-conditioning, and obtain the correspondence between the air-conditioning operating status and the ambient temperature in different time periods. By analyzing the data, the total demand and change pattern of the terminal load can be obtained; the networked communication interface with the third-party building control system connects the traditional building control system, analyzes the operating status of the air-conditioning and HVAC equipment in the operating building, and records the collected data in a spatial correspondence, providing a basis for establishing a central air-conditioning equipment operation model.

[0089] Furthermore, the technical solutions of each embodiment of the present invention can also automatically analyze the communication protocol of the access data, such as modbus, BACnet or Profibus, and can match the data table with the analog quantity relationship. Furthermore, the operating status and data changes can be analyzed to automatically match the monitoring points and logical relationships corresponding to the data.

[0090] At the same time, when collecting real-time environmental parameters, the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention can collect outdoor sunlight parameters, indoor black globe temperature and other information in addition to outdoor temperature and humidity values ​​and indoor temperature and humidity values. The outdoor temperature and humidity values ​​and outdoor sunlight parameters can be used to establish an outdoor climate and time model, and the indoor temperature and humidity values ​​and indoor black globe temperature can be used to establish an indoor heat load model. The indoor building enclosure heat transfer model can be analyzed with the outdoor climate and time model. Based on the above-established models, the overall cooling load estimate of the building controlled by the central air-conditioning system in the target future period can be more accurately estimated. Based on the above-mentioned overall cooling load estimate, the target control parameters corresponding to each linkage control device can be more accurately calculated.

[0091] Building on the technologies in the aforementioned embodiments, intelligent matching between space and equipment operating parameters can be achieved, and presented in the form of an energy flow diagram, allowing users to more intuitively observe the real-time control process of the central air conditioning system. Finally, the various functional submodules included in the AI ​​computing power model can be iterated or upgraded in real time.

[0092] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of another AI-based central air conditioning system control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is optimized based on the above embodiments. In this embodiment, the parameter type of "current operating parameters of each linked control device" is specifically expanded, and the operation of "real-time calculation of target control parameters corresponding to each linked control device through linked calculations between multiple functional sub-models in the AI ​​computing power model" is further refined accordingly.

[0093] Correspondingly, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method may include:

[0094] S210: Acquire real-time environmental parameters that match the central air-conditioning system, and acquire current operating parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system.

[0095] In this embodiment, the current operating parameters of each linkage control device in the central air-conditioning system may also include: the current number of started and stopped chilled water pumps, the current operating frequency of each currently started chilled water pump, the current wind speed and current air volume of each central air-conditioning terminal fan in the central air-conditioning system, and the current control parameters of the networked temperature control system of each central air-conditioning terminal.

[0096] Correspondingly, the functional sub-models in the AI ​​computing power model also include: chilled water delivery system model and air conditioning terminal load model.

[0097] The number of chilled water pumps currently started and stopped can be understood as the number of chilled water pumps currently started and stopped among all chilled water pumps in the central air conditioning system. The chilled water pump's current operating frequency refers to the power supply frequency driving the chilled water pump motor, measured in Hertz (Hz), which directly affects the pump's speed and flow rate.

[0098] The central air-conditioning terminal fan is installed at the end of the central air-conditioning system. Its main function is to transport the air treated by the chiller to each room to meet the temperature requirements of different rooms.

[0099] The networked temperature control system at the central air conditioning terminal, also generally referred to as an intelligent temperature controller, is used to collect ambient temperature data in real time and send instructions to the network to adjust the control parameters of each control component in the central air conditioning terminal (such as the opening of the electric water valve or the fan speed, etc.). Among them, the networked temperature control system monitors the indoor temperature in real time through a built-in temperature sensor and compares the monitored temperature data with the temperature set by the user. When the indoor temperature is higher than the set temperature, the networked temperature control system will send a signal to the various control components in the central air conditioning terminal to increase the cooling capacity; when the indoor temperature is lower than the set temperature, it will control the various control components in the central air conditioning terminal to reduce the cooling capacity or stop cooling to maintain the indoor temperature within the set range.

[0100] In this embodiment, the chilled water delivery system model refers to a pre-trained machine learning model used to predict the target number of chilled water pump starts and stops, as well as the target operating frequency of each chilled water pump during target activation. This chilled water delivery system model aims to maximize chilled water delivery efficiency. Furthermore, the air conditioning terminal load model refers to a pre-trained machine learning model used to predict the target wind speed and target air volume of the central air conditioning terminal fans installed in each air duct area of ​​the central air conditioning system, as well as the target control parameters of the networked temperature control system of each central air conditioning terminal.

Through machine learning and deep learning, the terminal load can be accurately analyzed, and then an accurate AI computing power model can be established for the central air-conditioning system to achieve efficient energy output, distribution and heat exchange between various devices in the system, thereby achieving system energy saving.

[0113] At the same time, the AI ​​computing power model of the central air conditioning system also provides more data support for load analysis and forecasting of the central air conditioning system. Through AI analysis of the system, it can better implement on-demand cooling supply methods that conform to user habits, effectively improve the water balance of the air conditioning chilled water system, and while improving cooling efficiency, it also provides a basis for the efficient and stable operation of the host. Furthermore, through AI analysis of the central air conditioning system, it can also achieve efficient utilization of cold storage systems and residual cooling utilization strategies, providing data support for technologies such as load allocation and virtual power plant applications.
