Abstract:

Artificial neural network has been widely used in air conditioning systems as an effective method for predicting parameters, and the accuracy of ANN model relies on training data and network structure. In order to increase the quality of chilled water loops model, this paper develops an optimal data processing algorithm combining Kalman filtering with particle swarm optimization to compensate for uncertain factors and disturbances of collected data from the case building and establishes the nonlinear variation trend database. Based on Elman and BP neural networks, this paper proposes the improved network structures to avoid the local optimum predicted value of chilled water loops and increase data training speed. Simulation results show that this algorithm improves the data accuracy of current percentage (CP) of chillers and chilled water temperatures 12% and 9%. Compared with Elman and BP models, mean absolute errors of CP improved models are improved 24.1% and 10.3%, and mean squared errors of water temperature improved models are improved 5.2% and 4.8%. For the purpose of energy conservation control in air conditioning systems, this work has an application value and can be used for predicting other parameters of buildings.
