Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of terminal air conditioning and ventilation control, and more particularly to an air conditioning control method for terminal partition control. BACKGROUND

[0002] The passenger flow in the terminal presents a wave peak flow, and the activities of waiting, boarding, catering and passing push heat, humidity and carbon dioxide to the space picture that changes in an instant. The air conditioning supply is borne by the partition unit, and the ventilation is completed by the fresh air unit and the return air pipeline in cooperation, and both of them should theoretically respond to the load jump simultaneously. However, the operation practice shows that the control core is still driven by the single-point deviation of temperature, and the real-time fluctuations of humidity and air quality are ignored, and when the external wet-bulb temperature is high or low or the passenger flow prediction is short-term inaccurate, the supply and ventilation will be in different rhythms, forming a double pull and saw of comfort and energy consumption.

[0003] The existing public scheme CN115854501A "Airport terminal room temperature large lag prediction control method based on passenger flow prediction" is just such a single-target representative: the algorithm injects the passenger flow prediction into the temperature model, and then uses the model predictive control to seek the optimal temperature trajectory, but does not put carbon dioxide and relative humidity into the same optimization framework. When the passenger flow suddenly increases, the human body heat dissipation and exhaust increase sharply, and the temperature model still steadily outputs the original set supply strategy; the on-duty personnel are forced to temporarily increase the fresh air volume to lower the carbon dioxide, which instantly destroys the temperature balance, and the system immediately compensates by heating or cooling, and the supply and ventilation constantly offset each other. The three curves of temperature, humidity and air quality deviate alternately due to the lack of a unified target, the energy consumption line rises linearly, and the passenger's physical sensation jumps between dry and cold wind and hot and humid, which reveals the core gap of the lack of intelligent linkage of air conditioning and ventilation, which is the key problem to be solved by the present application. In order to solve the above problems, a technical scheme is provided. SUMMARY

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of an airport partition control air conditioning control method. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the application.

[0017] Embodiment 1: Figure 1 An airport partition control air conditioning control method is given, which comprises: S1: The passenger flow line, air flow and outdoor meteorological field are fused into the same space-time grid, and the thermal-wet profile of the terminal building is drawn in real time.

[0018] S2: The thermal-wet gradient curvature is calculated between the continuous grids to generate the thermal pulse index map, and the thermal impulse and the wet lag amplitude are calculated for each grid. If the cosine coefficient of the two parameters is higher than the threshold value, the priority regulation weight is marked in the thermal pulse index map.

[0019] S3: The partition enthalpy-wind regulation instruction is automatically generated according to the marked thermal pulse index map, the air supply enthalpy value offset, the air volume transfer path and the fresh air mixing ratio are given at one time, and the regulation is executed after the balance of the supply and return air pressure difference.

[0020] S4: After the execution end completes the regulation, the actual thermal-wet offset is collected through the sentinel sensing layer of the breathing area, the comfort deviation map is formed and is sent back to the analysis module.

[0021] S5: The analysis module corrects the calculation smoothing coefficient of the heat flux and the moisture amplitude with the comfort deviation map, and then refreshes the grid initial value of the next period, so that the subsequent heat pulse index map is closer to the on-site heat and moisture dynamic changes.

[0022] In the airport terminal, the passenger flow presents a wave peak flow, resulting in a transient distribution of heat, humidity and carbon dioxide concentration. The air conditioning supply is responsible by the partition unit, while the ventilation is completed by the fresh air unit and the return air pipeline. Both of them need to respond to the load changes synchronously to maintain comfort and energy saving.

[0023] The existing scheme only drives the regulation and control with a single point temperature deviation, ignoring the real-time fluctuations of humidity and air quality. However, step S1 integrates the passenger flow line, air flow and outdoor meteorological field into the same space-time grid, and real-time draws the terminal heat and humidity profile, so as to realize the unified spatial perception basis of heat and humidity disturbance.

[0024] The specific processing technology logic of step S1 is as follows: 1-1. Data acquisition.

[0025] To ensure the real-time and accuracy of the fused data, collect multi-source information from the source to capture the original data of passenger flow behavior, internal air dynamics and external environmental influence in the terminal, so as to avoid information loss or deviation in the subsequent fusion process.

[0026] Collect passenger flow line data, air flow data and outdoor meteorological field data. The passenger flow line data is obtained by installing infrared sensor array in key areas of the terminal, recording the number and residence time of passengers in each space-time grid. The air flow data is obtained by partition wind speed sensor and air conditioning air inlet monitor, recording the wind speed vector and direction in each space-time grid. The outdoor meteorological field data is obtained by external meteorological station sensor, recording temperature, humidity and wind direction and other boundary conditions.

[0027] Through collection, a complete original data set is formed to ensure the space-time correspondence of passenger flow line data, air flow data and outdoor meteorological field data, so that the fusion process is directly based on reliable input for unified processing.

[0028] 1-2. Data fusion.

[0029] In order to project multi-source data to the same reference frame, perform fusion calculation to quantify the comprehensive influence of each data on heat and humidity, avoid spatial inconsistency caused by independent processing, and directly map to the space-time grid.

[0030] The passenger flow line data, air flow data and outdoor meteorological field data collected are fused into the same space-time grid, the space-time grid is a cubic unit divided at fixed intervals in a three-dimensional coordinate system, and the fusion process adopts a vector superposition method: for each space-time grid unit, a fused heat and humidity contribution value is calculated, which is obtained by adding the product of the passenger flow line contribution and the air flow contribution to the outdoor meteorological field contribution, wherein the passenger flow line contribution is the logarithm of the product of the number of passengers and the stay time to quantify the heat dissipation intensity; the air flow contribution is the modulus of the wind speed vector multiplied by the direction cosine to quantify the flow propulsion; and the outdoor meteorological field contribution is the product of the external temperature and humidity difference to quantify the boundary penetration influence.

[0031] Through the fusion calculation, the fused heat and humidity contribution value of each space-time grid unit is generated, the unified quantitative representation of multi-source data is realized, and thus the heat and humidity contour surface can be accurately spatially mapped based on the continuous and calculable grid data.

[0032] 1-3. Heat and humidity contour surface drawing.

[0033] In order to generate a continuous spatial distribution from discrete fused heat and humidity contribution values, the gradient is calculated and interpolated to capture the dynamic trend of heat and humidity changes, thereby avoiding the local blind area caused by relying only on grid point data.

[0034] The heat and humidity contour surface is calculated in real time on the fused space-time grid, and a curved surface interpolation algorithm is used to generate a continuous surface: for adjacent space-time grid units, the heat and humidity gradient is calculated, which is obtained by dividing the difference between the fused heat and humidity contribution values by the Euclidean distance between the grid units, and then multiplying by the cosine value of the included angle between the air flow direction and the grid connection; then, based on all the heat and humidity gradient values, a spline function is used to interpolate to generate a heat and humidity contour surface, which represents the continuous spatial picture of heat and humidity distribution in the form of contour lines.

[0035] Through this drawing method, a continuous heat and humidity contour surface is generated, which accurately reflects the space-time dynamics of heat and humidity distribution in the terminal building, so that the generation of the heat pulse index map can be based on the unified contour surface data to identify the heat and humidity disturbance synchronously.

[0036] After the completion of step S1, a unified heat and humidity contour surface is formed as the input basis for subsequent heat pulse index map generation, ensuring that the calculation of heat propagation rate and humidity decay lag can directly refer to the fused data in the space-time grid, and realizing the accurate spatial mapping of sudden passenger flow and meteorological disturbance in the terminal building.

[0037] Step S2 calculates the heat and humidity gradient curvature between the continuous grids and generates the heat pulse index map, and at the same time, the heat impulse and humidity lag amplitude of each grid are calculated, and if the cosine coefficient of the two parameters is higher than the threshold, the priority adjustment weight is marked in the heat pulse index map, so as to capture the dynamic synergy of heat and humidity disturbance to preferentially identify the spatial area that needs high-intensity adjustment.

[0038] The specific processing technique logic of step S2 is as follows: 2-1. Hot-wet gradient curvature calculation and hot pulse index map generation.

[0039] To quantify the bending degree on the hot-wet contour surface to identify the local intensity of hot pulse propagation, the curvature between consecutive grids is calculated, so as to generate a spatial index map reflecting the rate of hot-wet change, avoiding excessive attention to flat areas.

[0040] The hot-wet gradient curvature between consecutive grids on the hot-wet contour surface is calculated, and for adjacent grid cells, the hot-wet gradient curvature is calculated, which is obtained by taking the absolute value of the difference between the hot-wet gradient between adjacent grid cells and the hot-wet gradient of another adjacent grid cell, divided by the sum of the Euclidean distance between the two grid cells, and then multiplied by the sine value of the grid line angle, wherein the hot-wet gradient is the calculation result of the difference between the hot-wet contribution value divided by the distance multiplied by the direction cosine; then based on all hot-wet gradient curvature values, a grid aggregation method is used to generate a hot pulse index map, and the hot pulse index map represents the pulse intensity distribution of hot-wet change in the form of color scale. Through this calculation and generation, the hot pulse index map is formed, which accurately maps the propagation path of hot-wet disturbance in the terminal building, so that the parameter calculation directly focuses on the high curvature area for focused analysis to improve the perturbation discrimination.

[0041] The hot pulse index map maps the propagation intensity distribution of hot-wet disturbance by quantifying the hot-wet gradient curvature, and its acquisition aims to identify the local pulse area of hot-wet change in the terminal building, so as to provide a spatial reference for adjustment priority, avoid invalid intervention on uniform areas, and ensure the targeted allocation of air conditioning and ventilation resources to improve the overall system response efficiency. The meaning of the hot pulse index map is that it serves as a visualization tool to represent the aggregation results of the bending degree of hot-wet gradient between consecutive grids in the form of color scale or contour, accurately depicting the dynamic path of hot-wet dynamics.

[0042] 2-2. Hot impulse and wet lag amplitude calculation.

[0043] To complement the capture of heat propulsion rate and humidity decay lag, the hot impulse and wet lag amplitude of each grid are calculated, so as to quantify the independent dynamic characteristics of hot-wet impact and avoid disturbance omission caused by a single parameter.

[0044] The hot impulse and wet lag amplitude of each grid are calculated, first, the hot impulse is calculated, which is defined as the integral value of the difference between the current frame and the previous frame of thermal image pixel value to represent the heat increment; then divided by the corresponding passenger flow residence time to obtain the instantaneous heat work; then the heat work is accumulated along the main direction of air flow, which is defined as the path integral of the instantaneous heat work values of multiple consecutive grids to form a single value quantifying the heat propulsion rate, wherein the path integral is accumulated along the differential path length in the direction of air flow.

[0045] The heat impulse is evaluated by accumulating the instantaneous heat work to assess the rate of heat propagation along the airflow direction, and its acquisition aims to capture the dynamic characteristics of the heat increase induced by the passenger flow, thereby complementing the humidity parameter to form an independent quantification of the heat disturbance propagation force, supporting the synchronicity judgment to optimize the adjustment intensity, reduce energy waste, and maintain temperature balance. The meaning of the heat impulse lies in its representation as a single numerical indicator, which is the integral value of the heat increase per unit area divided by the residence time along the main direction of the air conditioning airflow, embodying the rate characteristics of heat propagation.

[0046] Secondly, the humidity lag amplitude is calculated, which is the difference between the maximum value and the average value of the absolute humidity field of two frames, obtaining the local humidity surge; then the remaining humidity decay time is calculated by back calculation with the ventilation prediction curve, defined as the reciprocal of the exponential decay constant fitted by the prediction curve; multiplied by the local humidity surge value to generate a single value.

[0047] The humidity lag amplitude measures the humidity lag effect by multiplying the local humidity surge and the decay time, and its acquisition aims to quantify the response delay of ventilation to humidity fluctuations, thereby combining with the heat parameter to identify the synergistic impact area, achieve accurate perception of humidity disturbance, avoid mutual offset in adjustment, and promote the dual coordination of comfort and energy consumption. The meaning of the humidity lag amplitude lies in its representation as a single numerical indicator, which is the calculation result of the difference between the maximum value and the average value of the absolute humidity field multiplied by the prediction decay time, embodying the lag amplitude of humidity change.

[0048] Through this acquisition, the numerical pair of heat impulse and humidity lag amplitude of each grid is generated, realizing independent quantification of heat and humidity dynamic changes, so that the calculation of the cosine coefficient is based on the synchronicity evaluation of these parameter vectors to enhance the sensitivity of the adjustment logic.

[0049] 2-3. Cosine coefficient calculation and priority adjustment weight labeling.

[0050] To measure the synchronicity of heat impulse and humidity lag amplitude to identify the priority adjustment space, calculate the cosine coefficient of the two parameters and label the weight, thereby highlighting the synergistic impact area in the heat pulse index map and avoiding the dispersion of resources in non-key areas.

[0051] The heat impulse and humidity lag amplitude are constructed into vectors in polar coordinates, and the cosine of the included angle is used as the judgment coefficient. For each grid, the cosine coefficient is calculated by the dot product of the heat impulse vector component and the humidity lag amplitude vector component divided by the product of the heat impulse vector module and the humidity lag amplitude vector module, where the heat impulse vector component is the projection of the heat impulse value along the radial direction of the polar coordinate, and the humidity lag amplitude vector component is the projection of the humidity lag amplitude value along the angular direction of the polar coordinate; if the cosine coefficient is higher than the preset threshold, the priority adjustment weight is labeled in the heat pulse index map, and the priority adjustment weight is superimposed on the corresponding grid of the heat pulse index map in the form of a numerical label.

[0052] Through this calculation and marking, the synchronization of heat and humidity impact is accurately identified, so that the generation of zoned enthalpy-air regulation instructions is optimized for the marked area to improve the overall regulation efficiency.

[0053] The heat impact and humidity lag amplitude are constructed as vectors in polar coordinates, and the cosine of the included angle is used as the judgment coefficient. The process of calculating each grid aims to capture the directional consistency between the two parameters through vector representation, thereby quantifying the degree of coordination of heat and humidity disturbance. Specifically, the heat impact value is projected as the radial component in polar coordinates to reflect the strength dimension of heat advancement, while the humidity lag value is projected as the angular component to reflect the phase characteristics of humidity lag. This vector construction method ensures the geometric expression of the parameters, facilitating subsequent angle analysis and avoiding the relative relationship ignored by simple numerical comparison. By calculating the cosine coefficient, that is, the dot product of the heat impact vector component and the humidity lag vector component divided by the product of their vector lengths, a standardized index is obtained, which ranges from -1 to 1. The higher the positive value, the smaller the vector angle, indicating that the impact direction of heat impact and humidity lag tends to be synchronized, which is used as a threshold judgment basis to mark the priority regulation weight. This calculation method improves the sensitivity of the regulation logic to the coordination of heat and humidity impact, ensuring that the air conditioning and ventilation system only allocates resources to high-synchronization areas in the presence of passenger flow mutations or meteorological disturbances, thereby reducing ineffective regulation operations and optimizing energy utilization and comfort balance.

[0054] After step S2 is processed, the marked heat pulse index map is formed as the input basis for subsequent zoned enthalpy-air regulation instruction generation, ensuring that the calculation of enthalpy value offset, air volume transfer path, and fresh air mixing ratio can directly reference the priority regulation weight in the heat pulse index map, achieving a targeted response to heat and humidity coordinated disturbance in the terminal building.

[0055] Step S3 generates zoned enthalpy-air regulation instructions based on the marked heat pulse index map, which gives the supply air enthalpy value offset, air volume transfer path, and fresh air mixing ratio in one go, and is executed after maintaining the supply and return air pressure difference balance, thereby realizing a unified response strategy for heat and humidity coordinated disturbance to optimize resource allocation.

[0056] The specific processing technology logic of step S3 is as follows: 3-1. Enthalpy value offset generation.

[0057] To adjust the supply air enthalpy value for the heat and humidity impact intensity of the marked area, the offset is calculated based on the heat pulse index map, thereby matching the heat disturbance dominated by heat impact, and avoiding the energy consumption increase caused by temperature overcompensation.

[0058] Based on the annotated thermal pulse index map, the supply air enthalpy offset is generated. For the grid area with priority adjustment weight, the enthalpy offset is calculated by multiplying the thermal impulse by the natural logarithm of the pulse index value. The thermal impulse is the instantaneous heat work accumulated along the airflow direction to quantify the thermal propulsion rate, and the pulse index value is the aggregated result of the thermal and humid gradient curvature to reflect the local intensity. Then, all enthalpy offsets are summarized into the partitioned enthalpy offset command part.

[0059] This calculation and aggregation generates an accurate supply air enthalpy offset, ensuring that enthalpy regulation directly responds to heat-dominant disturbances. This allows the calculation of airflow transfer paths to seamlessly reference the enthalpy offset to coordinate the overall airflow distribution and improve the accuracy of temperature balance.

[0060] 3-2. Calculation of air volume transfer path.

[0061] To achieve dynamic transfer of air volume from low-priority areas to high-priority areas, the transfer path is calculated to balance the air volume distribution in each zone and avoid comfort fluctuations caused by uneven local wind speeds.

[0062] Based on the labeled heat pulse index map, the air volume transfer path is calculated. For adjacent grid areas, if the priority adjustment weight of one grid area is higher than that of another grid area, the transfer path vector is obtained by multiplying the difference in priority adjustment weights by the cosine of the angle between the grid line and the main direction of the air conditioning airflow. The priority adjustment weight is a labeled value based on the cosine coefficient threshold to quantify the adjustment priority. Then, based on all transfer path vectors, the path optimization algorithm is used to generate the air volume transfer path. The air volume transfer path is represented as a vector chain in the form of a redirection sequence of the air volume of the zone.

[0063] This calculation and generation process creates an optimized airflow transfer path, enabling targeted redistribution of air resources. This allows the determination of the fresh air mixing ratio to directly integrate airflow transfer path information to maintain ventilation efficiency and reduce airflow turbulence.

[0064] 3-3. Determining the fresh air mixing ratio.

[0065] To coordinate the introduction of fresh air to cope with humidity disturbances dominated by hygroscopic amplitude, a mixing ratio is determined to synchronize ventilation and air supply, thereby avoiding excessive introduction of fresh air that could disrupt enthalpy balance.

[0066] The fresh air mixing ratio is determined based on the labeled heat pulse index map. For the grid area with priority adjustment weight, the mixing ratio is calculated by dividing the wet hysteresis amplitude by an exponential function value with a negative pulse index value. The wet hysteresis amplitude is a single value of humidity surge multiplied by decay time to quantify the hysteresis amplitude, and the pulse index value is the aggregated result of thermal and humidity gradient curvature to reflect local intensity. Then, all mixing ratios are summarized into the zonal mixing instruction part.

[0067] Through this calculation and summary, the accurate fresh air mixing ratio is generated to ensure the coordination of humidity adjustment and thermal response, so that the differential pressure balance calculation can seamlessly reference the mixing ratio to stabilize the overall air flow circulation and optimize the responsiveness of humidity control.

[0068] 3-4. Differential pressure balance and instruction issuance.

[0069] To prevent the differential pressure imbalance of return air caused by the execution of adjustment instructions, the balance adjustment is performed before issuance to ensure the stable operation of zone units and fresh air units, avoiding the increase of energy consumption caused by air flow reversal.

[0070] After maintaining the differential pressure balance of return air, the zone enthalpy-air adjustment instruction is issued, first integrating the enthalpy offset of supply air, the air volume transfer path, and the fresh air mixing ratio, calculating the differential pressure correction factor, which is the sum of the zone total of enthalpy offset divided by the total number of zones, where the zone total of enthalpy offset is the accumulation of all grid enthalpy offsets to quantify the overall enthalpy change, the vector sum of the air volume transfer path is the length sum of the transfer vector to quantify the air volume redirection scale, and the average value of the fresh air mixing ratio is the arithmetic mean of all grid ratios to quantify the ventilation introduction level; then if the differential pressure correction factor exceeds the preset range, a signal is issued to uniformly adjust the instruction parameters to restore balance, and is issued to the execution end.

[0071] Through this calculation and adjustment, the adjustment instruction issuance of differential pressure balance is realized to ensure the reliability of instruction execution, so that the actual thermal and humidity offset can be collected based on a stable air flow environment for feedback optimization and improve the overall adaptability of the system.

[0072] After the completion of step S3, the zone enthalpy-air adjustment instruction is formed as the input basis for subsequent execution end operations, ensuring that the implementation of enthalpy offset, air volume transfer path, and fresh air mixing ratio can directly respond to the labeling of thermal pulse index map, realizing unified and efficient regulation and control of thermal and humidity disturbance in the terminal.

[0073] Step S4 collects the actual thermal and humidity offset using the sentinel sensing layer of the breathing zone after the adjustment is completed by the execution end, summarizes the comfort deviation map and returns it to the analysis module, thereby realizing real-time feedback of the adjustment effect to correct subsequent calculations, ensuring the closed-loop adaptation of thermal and humidity dynamics.

[0074] The specific processing technology logic of step S4 is as follows: 4-1. Actual thermal and humidity offset collection.

[0075] To verify the execution effect of the zone enthalpy-air adjustment instruction and capture residual disturbance, the actual thermal and humidity offset is collected at the breathing zone position, thereby quantifying the gap with the expected comfort level, avoiding the decline in comfort caused by adjustment deviation accumulation.

[0076] After the completion of the adjustment, the actual heat and humidity deviation is collected by the sentinel sensing layer of the breathing area. For each grid point of the breathing area, the heat and humidity deviation is calculated by subtracting the expected temperature value from the actual temperature value and multiplying the actual humidity value by the exponential function value of the expected humidity value, where the actual temperature value is the current temperature measured by the sentinel sensor to reflect the heat state after adjustment, the expected temperature value is the target temperature corresponding to the enthalpy deviation as a reference, the actual humidity value is the current humidity measured by the sentinel sensor to reflect the humidity state after adjustment, and the expected humidity value is the target humidity corresponding to the fresh air mixing ratio as a reference. Then all the heat and humidity deviations are taken as the original deviation data set.

[0077] The accurate actual heat and humidity deviation data set is generated by this process, ensuring that the deviation is quantified and integrated into both heat and humidity dimensions, so that the summary of the comfort deviation map can directly reference the actual heat and humidity deviation to form the basis of feedback and improve the accuracy of the deviation mapping.

[0078] 4-2. Summary of the comfort deviation map.

[0079] In order to convert discrete deviations into a spatially continuous representation, the actual heat and humidity deviation is summarized into a comfort deviation map, so that the partition deviation distribution can be visualized, and the influence of local blind areas on the overall correction can be avoided.

[0080] Based on the actual heat and humidity deviation data set, the comfort deviation map is summarized, and for adjacent grid points, the deviation connectivity value is calculated by adding the heat and humidity deviation of one grid point to the heat and humidity deviation of another grid point multiplied by the sine value of the angle between the connecting line and the air volume transfer path direction, where the heat and humidity deviation is the exponential adjustment value of the actual and expected heat and humidity difference to quantify the local deviation. Then, based on all the deviation connectivity values, a surface fitting algorithm is used to generate the comfort deviation map, which represents the continuous spatial distribution of heat and humidity deviation in the form of a color scale surface.

[0081] By this process, a complete comfort deviation map is formed, which accurately maps the deviation pattern after adjustment in the terminal building, so that the map return can directly provide the feedback data required by the analysis module to optimize parameter correction and enhance the stability of closed-loop control.

[0082] 4-3. Comfort deviation map return.

[0083] In order to close-loop transmit feedback information, the comfort deviation map is returned to the analysis module, so as to support dynamic adjustment of the calculation of heat surge and humidity hysteresis, and avoid the disconnection between the prediction model and the field.

[0084] The generated comfort deviation map is sent back to the analysis module. First, the integrity of the deviation map is verified by checking the coverage of all grid points to ensure that there are no missing areas. Then, the comfort deviation map is packaged in a digital package, including the color step surface data and offset metadata, and sent back to the analysis module. Through this verification and return, reliable transmission of feedback information is realized, ensuring that the analysis module can seamlessly reference the comfort deviation map to correct the calculation of the smoothing coefficient, thereby improving the fit of the thermal pulse index map to the on-site thermal and moisture dynamics and improving the system's adaptability to disturbances.

[0085] After step S4 is completed, the comfort deviation map is formed as the input basis for the subsequent analysis module correction, ensuring that the smoothing coefficient adjustment of the thermal impulse and moisture hysteresis calculation can directly respond to the actual offset, realizing closed-loop optimization of the adjustment effect in the terminal building.

[0086] Step S5 corrects the calculation of the smoothing coefficient of the thermal impulse and moisture hysteresis through the analysis module with the comfort deviation map, and then refreshes the next period grid initial value, so that the subsequent thermal pulse index map is closer to the on-site thermal and moisture dynamics, thereby realizing feedback closed-loop adaptive optimization to improve the response accuracy to sudden disturbances.

[0087] The specific processing technology logic of step S5 is as follows: 5-1. Calculate the smoothing coefficient correction.

[0088] To integrate the actual adjustment feedback to adjust the sensitivity of parameter calculation, the calculation of the smoothing coefficient of the thermal impulse and moisture hysteresis is corrected with the comfort deviation map, thereby reducing the prediction error and avoiding adjustment errors caused by continuous deviation.

[0089] The analysis module corrects the calculation of the smoothing coefficient of the thermal impulse and moisture hysteresis with the comfort deviation map. First, for the thermal impulse calculation smoothing coefficient, the initial smoothing coefficient is multiplied by the deviation value of the corresponding grid in the comfort deviation map divided by the global maximum deviation value of the comfort deviation map, where the initial smoothing coefficient is a preset empirical value to control the filtering strength of the thermal impulse calculation, the deviation value of the corresponding grid in the comfort deviation map is the surface fitting result of the thermal and moisture offset to quantify the actual and expected deviation, and the global maximum deviation value of the comfort deviation map is the peak value of all grid deviations to normalize the correction amplitude. Secondly, for the moisture hysteresis calculation smoothing coefficient, the initial smoothing coefficient is multiplied by the exponential function value of the deviation value of the corresponding grid in the negative comfort deviation map divided by the global average deviation value of the comfort deviation map, where the initial smoothing coefficient is a preset empirical value to control the filtering strength of the moisture hysteresis calculation, and the global average deviation value of the comfort deviation map is the arithmetic mean of all grid deviations to adjust the exponential decay sensitivity. Then, the corrected smoothing coefficient is applied to the parameter calculation.

[0090] The optimized calculation smoothing coefficient is generated by calculation, so that the heat surge and the moisture hysteresis are more suitable for the on-site feedback, and thus the refreshing of the grid initial value can directly refer to the calculation smoothing coefficient to improve the dynamic accuracy of the heat pulse index map and enhance the tracking ability to the disturbance changes.

[0091] 5-2. Refreshing of the grid initial value.

[0092] To bridge the current period feedback and the next period prediction, the grid initial value of the next period is refreshed, so that the space-time grid is initialized to reflect the corrected dynamics and avoid the cumulative error caused by the propagation of historical deviation.

[0093] To refresh the grid initial value of the next period, for each space-time grid unit, the initial value is calculated by adding the current period fusion heat and moisture contribution value to the deviation value of the corresponding grid in the comfort deviation map multiplied by the cosine value of the angle between the grid unit and the air volume transfer path, wherein the current period fusion heat and moisture contribution value is the result of superposition of multiple sources as the baseline, the deviation value of the corresponding grid in the comfort deviation map is the surface fitting result of the heat and moisture offset to quantify the feedback correction, and the cosine value of the angle between the grid unit and the air volume transfer path is a quantitative indicator of the direction influence; then all the initial values are taken as the starting data of the space-time grid of the next period, and input into the fusion process.

[0094] Through the calculation and refreshing, the refreshed grid initial value is generated, the continuous adaptation to the heat and moisture profile is realized, so that the subsequent heat pulse index map can capture the on-site heat and moisture dynamic changes based on the optimized initial value to improve the overall control efficiency and promote the adaptability of the system to the passenger flow and meteorological fluctuations.

[0095] After the step S5 is processed, the corrected calculation smoothing coefficient and the refreshed grid initial value are formed as the input basis for the subsequent cycle, so that the generation of the heat pulse index map can directly respond to the comfort deviation feedback, and the continuous and accurate tracking of the heat and moisture disturbance in the terminal building is realized.
