Bond Graph Modeling and Control of A Single-Zone Building in a Semi-Arid Region for Thermal Comfort

Abstract

To analyze the thermal behavior of our studied local; a model of the bond graph of a single-zone construction taking into account influences of the outside/inside climate has been developed and validated. Using a thermoelectric analogy, the thermal model is thus represented by a second-order RC network. Data from experimental input-output measurement sequences collected at the laboratory ENERGARID of the University of Bechar in southwest Algeria are used to identify and validate model parameters. This allowed us to obtain a good behavioral model of our site.For the well-being of occupants and with greater energy efficiency, the internal climate management was dedicated to the use of a PID controller. Its parameters are optimized by the Newton Raphson algorithm so we have achieved satisfactory results illustrated by simulation.
