On the Adaptation of Building Controls to the Envelope and the Occupants
The sun is the biggest known source of energy in our solar system. We feel its strength when it gets hot during the the day and we notice its absence during the night when we feel cold. So as to be less dependent on the sun as an energy source, we implemen ...
EPFL2011A personalized measure of thermal comfort for building controls
Nicolas Morel, Frédéric Haldi, David Daum
A personalized measure for thermal comfort has been applied for use in combination with smart controls for building automation. Using data from a field study, we first show the superiority of personalized measures for thermal comfort compared to standard n ...
Elsevier2011Assessing the total energy impact of manual and optimized blind control in combination with different lighting schedules in a building simulation environment
In this work, we investigated the interplay and the influence of lighting and blind control models on the heating, cooling, and lighting energy loads of an office room. By including different stochastic models for occupancy and appliances, we built a compl ...
Taylor & Francis2010Identifying important state variables for a blind controller
In literature many different blind controller have been proposed and it has been shown in most cases, that they can provide energy savings and better comfort. In the early approaches they where based only on one state variable, but over time more variables ...
Elsevier2010Assessing the saving potential of blind controller via multi-objective optimization
This paper presents the results of computational experiments where multi-objective algorithms were used to tune a controller for blind movements in a residential building and a room of the LESO (Solar Energy and Building Physics Laboratory) experimental bu ...
Tsinghua Press, Springer2009Coupling Thermal Simulation and Multi-Objective Coupling Thermal Simulation and Multi-Objective - Optimization for Blind Controller Design
In this paper we present results of computational experiments where multi-objective algorithms were used to tune a controller for blind movements in a room of the LESO experimental building. The blind controller which is based on fuzzy logic was optimized ...
EPFL2009Reliability-Based Optimization Using Evolutionary Algorithms
Uncertainties in design variables and problem parameters are often inevitable and must be considered in an optimization task if reliable optimal solutions are sought. Besides a number of sampling techniques, there exist several mathematical approximations ...
