Single Zone AHU controller that composes subsequences for controlling fan speed, economizer, and supply air temperature

Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.Controller

Information

Block for single zone VAV control. It outputs supply fan speed, supply air temperature setpoints for heating, economizer and cooling, zone air heating and cooling setpoints, outdoor and return air damper positions, and valve positions of heating and cooling coils.

It is implemented according to the ASHRAE Guideline 36, Part 5.18.

The sequences consist of the following subsequences.

Supply fan speed control

The fan speed control is implemented according to PART 5.18.4. It outputs the control signal yFan to adjust the speed of the supply fan. See Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.SetPoints.Supply for more detailed description.

Supply air temperature setpoints

The supply air temperature setpoints control sequences are implemented based on PART 5.18.4. They are implemented in the same control block as the supply fan speed control. The supply air temperature setpoint for heating and economizer is the same; while the supply air temperature setpoint for cooling has a separate control loop. See Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.SetPoints.Supply for more detailed description.

Economizer control

The Economizer control block outputs outdoor and return air damper position, i.e. yOutDamPos and yRetDamPos, as well as control signal for heating coil yHeaCoi. Optionally, there is also an override for freeze protection, which is not part of Guideline 36. See Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.Economizers.Controller for more detailed description.

Minimum outdoor airflow

Control sequences are implemented to compute the minimum outdoor airflow setpoint, which is used as an input for the economizer control. More detailed information can be found at Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.SetPoints.OutsideAirFlow.

Zone air heating and cooling setpoints

Zone air heating and cooling setpoints as well as system operation modes are detailed at Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.SetPoints.ModeAndSetPoints.

Controller for cooling coil valve

Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.CoolingCoil

Information

This block outputs the cooling coil control signal if the fan is on and the zone status is uZonSta = Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.Types.ZoneStates.cooling. Otherwise, the control signal for the coil is set to 0.

Select the zone state

Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.AHUs.SingleZone.VAV.ZoneState

Information

Block that outputs the zone state. It first checks if the zone is in heating state; if not, it checks if the zone is in cooling state; otherwise it is in deadband state.

These states are defined in Buildings.Obsolete.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.Types.ZoneStates.

The logic of the block is as follows.

  1. The zone state is heating when both of the following two conditions are satisfied: (i) The heating control signal satisfies uHea > uHigh, where uHigh is a parameter, and (ii) the following condition is satisfied uHea - uCoo > uLow, where uCoo is the cooling control signal and uLow is a parameter. The second condition is used to avoid errors when uHea > 0 and uCoo > 0 at the same time.
  2. The zone state is cooling when the zone state is not heating and the cooling control signal satisfies uCoo > uHigh, where uHigh is a parameter. If uCoo < uLow, then the zone state is not cooling.
  3. The zone state is deadband when it is neither in heating state nor in cooling state.
