Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a building energy modeling automation system and a method using the same. More specifically, it relates to a building energy modeling automation system and a method using the same that diagnose the energy consumed in a building to minimize the emission of unnecessary energy that causes environmental problems, and thus can reduce the building's energy costs.

Background Art

[0002] Generally, a building energy management system (BEMS) is a system for efficiently managing the energy used in a building. That is, it is a system that collects and analyzes various information on the energy management facilities in a building to improve the energy use efficiency. By using the building energy management system, an average of 5 to 15% of energy can be saved. Therefore, recently, as various laws and standards for building energy consumption have been strengthened and the need for energy conservation has increased, there is a tendency to actively introduce building energy management systems. The building energy management system constructs a building energy model according to the characteristics of the building, and controls and manages the operation of the building's energy facilities based on the constructed building energy model.

[0003] However, the building energy model for implementing the conventional building energy management system is constructed at the initial stage during construction and is used as it is until the building reaches the end of its life. Therefore, there is a problem that changes in energy performance due to aging and replacement of the building and equipment systems are not reflected. When the administrator controls the operation depending on experience, there is a problem that serious energy waste occurs.

[0004] Furthermore, energy consumption in buildings has recently emerged as a major cause of environmental problems. As energy consumption in buildings increases depending on the weather, leading to increased carbon emissions from electricity, gas, and other resources, reducing building energy consumption is being presented as a condition for carbon neutrality.

However, regardless of the drawing reference numerals, the same or similar components are given the same reference numbers and redundant descriptions thereof are omitted. Further, when it is determined that a specific description of related known technology may obscure the gist of the embodiments disclosed in the present specification in explaining the embodiments disclosed in the present specification, the detailed description thereof is omitted. [[ID=…]]

[0022] Singular expressions include plural expressions unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0023] In this application, each step described may be performed regardless of the order in which they are listed, except when the steps are to be performed in a particular order determined by a special causal relationship.

[0024] In this application, terms such as "comprising" or "having" are used to specify that there are features, numbers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof described in the specification, and it should be understood that the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof is not precluded in advance.

[0025] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an environment in which a building energy modeling automation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is implemented.

[0026] An environment 10 in which a building energy modeling automation system according to an embodiment of the present invention is implemented is communicatively connected to a server 100 that estimates building energy consumption standard information and a terminal 200 that displays the building energy consumption standard information estimated by the server 100.

[0027] In this embodiment, the server 100 can acquire basic information of a target building 50 from a building database to estimate energy consumption standard information, and generate exterior information of the target building 50 based on the acquired basic information of the target building 50. The generated exterior information of the target building 50 may be data that can generate an estimated image of the target building 50. In addition, window information relating to the window area information of the target building may be generated from the basic information of the target building 50. The generated window information of the target building 50 may be data that can generate energy consumption standard information of the target building 50.

[0028] In other words, server 100 can display energy consumption information related to the windows of the target building 50 on top of the image of the target building 50. By displaying the energy consumption information of the target building 50 on the image in this way, the energy consumption information of the target building 50 can be visually confirmed. More specifically, it can show which buildings have high energy waste and which have high energy-saving effects, making it possible to estimate energy consumption information for each building.

[0029] Below, we will examine in detail the system for estimating a building's energy consumption information, referring to the diagrams.

[0030] Figure 2 shows the configuration of an automated building energy modeling system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Figures 3 and 4 show examples of estimating building energy information using the automated building energy modeling system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0031] Before describing the drawings, for the sake of explanation, we will describe an example in which the building energy modeling automation system is implemented as a server. The server 100 may be installed in the target building 50 and be configured to estimate energy consumption standard information for the target building 50, or it may be implemented as one of several urban development servers that can estimate energy consumption standard information for multiple buildings, including the target building 50. In the following embodiments, the server 100 will be described as one of several urban development servers, but the present invention is not limited by the conditions of the implemented server 100.

[0032] Furthermore, the automated building energy modeling system of the embodiment generates a building energy usage model that can simulate the energy usage of the target building, and enables the estimation of the target building's energy consumption as a result of the generated simulation. Next, based on the estimated energy consumption of the target building, it can simulate building remodeling (repair, supplementation) to reduce the energy of the target building. It can estimate the resulting energy savings of the target building, and based on the estimated results, it can guide and proceed with the actual remodeling of the target building.

[0033] For details, please refer to the drawings. The server 100 may be configured to include a communication unit, a data acquisition unit 140, an information generation unit 160, a memory 180, and a processor 190, among others.

[0034] The communication unit 120 is configured to transmit the unique number assigned to the target building 50 and the building address of the target building 50 to the building database, and to receive basic information about the target building 50 from the building database, which contains ledger information for organizations such as Korea Electric Power Corporation and other buildings.

[0035] The data collection unit 140 is configured to collect basic information about a building. Specifically, it receives basic information about the target building 50 from a building database that is connected to the communication unit 120. More specifically, basic building information may include the building's footprint (base), building use information, and building height information. Such basic building information can be received from building information pre-stored by organizations such as the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Korea Appraisal Board.

[0036] Furthermore, the data collection unit 140 can receive power consumption information for the target building 50. Power consumption information for the target building 50 can be received by organizations such as Korea Electric Power Corporation, and in addition to power consumption information for the target building 50, it can also collect information on energy consumption reduction conditions, such as energy information subsidies.

[0037] On the other hand, the basic information may further include time-related information concerning the construction of the target building 50. Here, time-related information may include at least one of the following: information concerning the commencement of construction, commencement of construction, construction, completion, and finalization of the target building 50. In other words, the type of building constructed, the external characteristics, etc., may differ depending on when the target building 50 was built. Based on these characteristics, the external shape and window form of the target building 50 can be determined at the time the target building 50 was built. Also, it is generally the case that the older a building is built, the lower its energy efficiency. Based on these characteristics, external shape information and window information concerning the building's external shape and window form can be determined based on when the target building 50 was built, and the energy consumption standard information for the target building 50 can be estimated.

[0038] On the other hand, when generating external shape information for the target building 50, the server 100 can confirm the external shape type of the target building 50 from an external shape database that includes information on multiple standard external shape types classified by the building's construction date.

[0039] As explained, the exterior shape of a building may reflect different trends depending on the time of construction and the construction company. A database of building exteriors, which categorizes building exteriors according to criteria such as year and construction company, can be communicated and connected to the server 100. The exterior information of the target building 50, generated from the basic information of the target building 50, can be used in the exterior database to determine when and by which construction company the building was constructed. Based on the determined information and the basic information of the target building 50, the actual exterior shape of the target building 50 is estimated.

[0040] On the other hand, the form, pattern, and insulation standards of the windows installed in a building may differ depending on the time information at which the building was constructed. By dividing these characteristics into multiple standard window information sets based on the time and construction company, it is possible to estimate the window types of the 50 target buildings based on this standard window information.

[0041] Based on the exterior shape and window information of the target building 50, measured in comparison to the time of construction, energy consumption standard information for the target building 50 can be generated based on the exterior shape of the target building 50, the type, form, and thermal insulation properties of the windows installed in the target building 50.

[0042] On the other hand, when generating window information for the target building 50, the orientation information of the target building 50 can be confirmed based on the footprint information and external shape information of the target building 50. The orientation information of a building refers to the location where the building is positioned, and may mean, for example, facing south or north.

[0043] Once the orientation information of the target building 50 is confirmed, the reference plane of the target building 50 can be determined, and window information can be generated so that some of the windows of the target building 50 are located on the reference plane. Generally, when determining the direction of a building, in the case of an apartment, the direction of the building can be estimated based on the direction in which the living room windows are formed, and in the case of a general building, the direction of the building can be estimated based on the plane in which the main windows are formed. After confirming the orientation information of the target building 50 based on these characteristics, a reference plane can be determined along the direction of the target building 50. Next, window information for the target building 50 can be generated so that the main windows of the target building 50 are located on the determined reference plane.

[0044] Once basic information about the building is obtained, the information generation unit 160 can generate external information about the target building 50 based on the obtained basic information. External information about the target building 50 may include the number of floors, height, shape, etc.

[0045] More specifically, the information generation unit 160 can generate design information for the target building 50. The design information for the target building 50 may include any one of the following: the number of floors in the target building 50, average floor height information based on its use, or length information of the target building 50 based on its height. Based on the generated design information for the target building 50, energy consumption standard information based on height, floor height, etc., can be estimated.

[0046] Furthermore, the information generation unit 160 can generate window information, including information regarding the window area of ​​the target building 50, based on the basic information. For each building, the number of windows to be installed, the minimum width of the windows to be installed, etc., can be predetermined based on the building's purpose, area, etc. Window information for the target building 50 can be generated using these criteria and the basic information of the target building 50.

[0047] In this embodiment, the information generation unit 160 can generate energy consumption standard information for the target building 50 based on the basic information and window information of the target building 50. The energy consumption standard information for the target building 50 is information that estimates how much energy is consumed in the building. By comparing the generated energy consumption information with energy consumption information for the target building 50 that has been stored in advance, it is possible to determine the degree of unnecessary energy consumption in the target building 50, the energy efficiency of the building, etc.

[0048] In this embodiment, the information generation unit 160 can generate estimated image information of the target building 50 by reflecting window information in the exterior information of the target building 50. Based on the generated estimated image information of the target building 50 and the energy consumption information of the target building 50, the energy consumption status of the target building can be displayed.

[0049] Furthermore, referring to the drawings, when acquiring basic information about the target building 50, additional information may be acquired regarding at least one of the following: information regarding Street View images of the target building 50, an evaluation of the target building 50, the heating and cooling system of the target building 50, and load information, in order to acquire basic energy consumption information for the target building 50.

[0050] Street View information refers to video and image information of the target building 50 and its surroundings, obtained from photos of the building posted on social media. Such Street View information allows for the confirmation of the exterior of the target building 50, the placement of windows, and the reference plane of the target building 50.

[0051] Alternatively, energy consumption standard information can be estimated by judging the evaluations of the 50 target buildings on social media. A building's evaluation can refer to the degree of energy consumption perceived by the building's users. For example, if a building's evaluation indicates that its energy consumption costs are higher than other buildings, it can be concluded that the evaluation of the 50 target buildings indicates high energy consumption and energy waste.

[0052] Furthermore, when estimating energy consumption standard information, natural language entered by building users on social media may be used as a basis. In other words, natural language that describes the building's heating and cooling system and its structure (e.g., apartment building structure - corridor type, staircase type, etc.) when building users use the building can be collected, and energy consumption standard information for the building can be estimated based on the collected natural language.

[0053] Similarly, energy consumption standard information may be estimated based on the power consumption and heating / cooling methods of the target buildings 50. For example, in the case of apartments, power consumption and heating / cooling methods may differ between corridor-type buildings where many households are located side by side and staircase-type buildings where about two households are located facing each other.

[0054] If the actual power consumption of building 50 is higher than the pre-set power consumption and load information for building 50, it is estimated that building 50 has high energy consumption. Furthermore, if the energy consumed by building 50 is higher than the energy that should be consumed based on the set heating and cooling system, it may also be estimated that building 50 has high energy consumption.

[0055] On the other hand, when estimating energy consumption standard information for the target building 50, it is also possible to estimate energy consumption standard information based on seasonal changes. Since energy consumption in the target building 50 may be lower in spring and autumn than in summer and winter, it is possible to compare the energy consumption levels for each season to estimate which seasons have higher energy consumption.

[0056] Based on the basic information, architectural information, window information, etc., of the target buildings 50 collected by the information gathering department, the energy usage patterns and usage analysis data for the target buildings 50 can be derived.

[0057] The derived energy usage patterns and usage analysis data for the target building 50 can be used as energy consumption analysis data for the target building 50 and surrounding buildings, as shown in Figure 4. Furthermore, if the target building 50 has high energy consumption based on the derived energy usage patterns and usage analysis data, the causes of energy waste may be estimated.

[0058] Generally, buildings with many windows or those that are not double-glazed may have high energy waste. Therefore, by supplementing the window information of the target building 50 with information on the condition and type of windows, it is possible to minimize unnecessary energy consumption in the target building 50.

[0059] On the other hand, the derived energy usage patterns and usage analysis data for the target building 50 can be displayed on the terminal 200. In other words, the current energy usage patterns and usage analysis of the target building 50 by season, weather, and in comparison with surrounding buildings can be visualized to guide the user through the energy consumption level of the target building 50.

[0060] Memory 180 can store operational code for the server 100 to operate and operational data for estimating energy consumption standard information for the target building 50.

[0061] The processor 190 can control the overall operation of the server 100. The control unit 190 processes signals, data, information, etc. that are input or output via the above-described components, or drives application programs stored in the memory 180, so that it can provide or process appropriate information or functions for estimating energy consumption standard information for the target building 50.

[0062] Figure 5 shows the process of estimating energy consumption reference information according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0063] Referring to the drawings, the process for estimating energy consumption standard information according to the present invention first involves server 100 being able to collect basic building information S120. Basic building information may include the footprint (bottom of the building), building use information, building height information, etc. Such basic building information can be received from building information pre-stored by organizations such as the Korean Ministry of Land and Transport and the Korea Appraisal Board.

[0064] Furthermore, it is possible to receive electricity consumption information for the 50 target buildings. This electricity consumption information for the 50 target buildings may be received by organizations such as Korea Electric Power Corporation, and in addition to the electricity consumption information for the 50 target buildings, information on energy consumption reduction conditions, such as energy information subsidies, may also be collected.

[0065] On the other hand, when generating basic information, it is possible to generate basic information that includes time-related information about the building. Here, time-related information may include at least one of the following: information regarding the commencement of construction, commencement of construction, construction, completion, and completion of the target building 50. In other words, the type of building constructed, the external characteristics, etc., may differ depending on when the target building 50 was built. Based on these characteristics, the external shape and window form of the target building 50 can be determined at the time the target building 50 was built.

[0066] Next, S130 and S140 can generate exterior and window information for the target building 50. When generating the exterior information for the target building 50, the exterior type of the target building 50 can be confirmed from an exterior database containing information on multiple standard exterior types classified by the building's construction date.

[0067] More specifically, the exterior shape of a building may include different types depending on when the building was constructed, the construction company, etc. Such building exterior information can be communicated and connected to an exterior shape database that categorizes building exteriors according to criteria such as year and construction company, and the exterior shape database can determine at what time and by which construction company the exterior information of the target building 50, generated from the basic information of the target building 50, was constructed.

[0068] Furthermore, since the form, pattern, and insulation standards of windows installed in a building may differ depending on the time of construction, it is possible to divide the information into multiple standard window sets based on the time of construction and the construction company, and estimate the window types of the 50 target buildings based on this standard window information.

[0069] In particular, based on the exterior shape information and window information of the target building 50 measured in comparison to the time of construction, energy consumption standard information for the target building 50 can be generated based on the exterior shape of the target building 50, the type, form, and thermal insulation properties of the windows installed in the target building 50.

[0070] Next, S150 can generate energy consumption standard information for the target building 50. In other words, it can estimate the energy consumption rate of the target building 50 based on the time of construction, window information such as the shape of the windows, etc., and estimate the problems of the target building 50. If the interior of the target building 50 is to be improved based on the estimated problems of the target building 50, the amount of energy saved by the target building 50 may be calculated.

[0071] In the embodiment, once window information is generated for the exterior information of the target building 50, estimated image information of the target building 50 can be generated. Based on the generated estimated image information of the target building 50 and the energy consumption information of the target building 50, the energy consumption status of the target building can be displayed.

[0072] In this way, building outline information can be generated based on basic information such as building footprint, usage information, and height information. Building energy consumption standard information can then be generated from the generated building outline information and building window information to create an estimated image of the building. Based on the generated building energy consumption standard information, it is possible to determine whether or not energy is being consumed unnecessarily in the building, estimate the cause of energy waste, guide the repair of building defects, and carry out building remodeling based on the guided repair information.

[0073] The technical features disclosed in each embodiment of the present invention are not limited to that embodiment alone, and the technical features disclosed in each embodiment can be combined and applied to different embodiments, provided that they are not incompatible with each other.

[0074] Therefore, while each embodiment will be described primarily for its respective technical features, other technical features can be combined and applied as long as they are not mutually incompatible.

[0075] The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above and the accompanying drawings, and is subject to various modifications and variations from the perspective of a person with ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be determined not only by the claims herein but also by those equivalent to these claims.
