Power feedback strategy based on efficiency trajectory analysis for HCPV sun tracking
Manuel G. Satué, Fernando Castaño, Manuel G. Ortega +1
This paper presents a control strategy for sun trackers which adapts continuously to different sources of error, avoiding the necessity of any kind of calibration by analyzing the…
Economic versus energetic model predictive control of a cold production plant with thermal energy storage
Manuel G. Satué, Manuel R. Arahal, Luis F. Acedo +1
Economic model predictive control has been proposed as a means for solving the unit loading and unit allocation problem in multi-chiller cooling plants. The adjective economic stem…
Optimal chiller loading including transients
Manuel R. Arahal, Manuel G. Satué, Manuel G. Ortega
Scheduling and loading of chillers in a multi-chiller plant is considered. A new framework is introduced considering an extended set of independent variables for the optimization p…
Modelling and cooling power control of a TES-backed-up vapour-compression refrigeration system
D. Rodríguez, G. Bejarano, M. Vargas +2
This work addresses the modelling, power control, and optimization of a thermal energy storage (TES) system combined with a vapour-compression refrigeration facility based on phase…
Efficient simulation strategy for PCM-based cold-energy storage systems
G. Bejarano, M. Vargas, M. G. Ortega +2
This paper proposes a computationally efficient simulation strategy for cold thermal energy storage (TES) systems based on phase change material (PCM). Taking as a starting point t…
