Scalable Supervisory HVAC Control for Linear Objectives
W. Grant Dierking, Arash J. Khabbazi, Levi D. Reyes Premer +1
Advanced control of heating and cooling systems can substantially reduce energy costs and pollution. However, real-world adoption of popular algorithms among researchers, such as m…
Indirect data-driven predictive control and the state-space predictor
Levi D. Reyes Premer, Arash J. Khabbazi, Kevin J. Kircher
We define trajectory predictive control (TPC) as a class of indirect data-driven predictive control (DDPC) methods that represent future outputs as linear in past inputs/outputs an…
Comparative Field Deployment of Reinforcement Learning and Model Predictive Control for Residential HVAC
Ozan Baris Mulayim, Elias N. Pergantis, Levi D. Reyes Premer +4
Model Predictive Control (MPC) has demonstrated significant performance improvements over today's control methods for residential Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC),…
Humidity-Aware Model Predictive Control for Residential Air Conditioning: A Field Study
Elias N. Pergantis, Parveen Dhillon, Levi D. Reyes Premer +3
Model predictive control of residential air conditioning could reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining or improving occupants' thermal comfort. However,…
