Block that outputs the operation mode

Buildings.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.Generic.SetPoints.OperationMode

Information

This block outputs VAV system operation mode. It is implemented according to ASHRAE guideline G36, PART 5.C.6 (zone group operating modes). The block has the modes listed below.

Occupied Mode

A Zone Group is in the occupied mode when occupancy input uOcc is true. This input shall be retrieved from other sequences that specifies occupancy variation and time remaining to the next occupied period tNexOcc.

Warmup Mode

Warmup mode shall start based on the zone with the longest calculated warm up time warUpTim requirement, but no earlier than 3 hours before the start of the scheduled occupied period, and shall end at the scheduled occupied start time. Zones where the window switch indicates that a window is open shall be ignored. Note that for each zone, the optimal warm-up time warUpTim shall be obtained from an Optimal Start sequences, computed in a separate block. The figure below shows the sequence.

Cool-Down Mode

Cool-down mode shall start based on the zone with the longest calculated cool-down time cooDowTim requirement, but no earlier than 3 hours before the start of the scheduled occupied period, and shall end at the scheduled occupied start time. Zones where the window switch indicates that a window is open shall be ignored. Note that the each zone cooDowTim shall be obtained from an Optimal Start sequences, computed in a separate block.

Setback Mode

During unoccupied mode, if any 5 zones (or all zones, if fewer than 5) in the zone group fall below their unoccupied heating setpoints TZonHeaSetUno, the zone group shall enter setback mode until all spaces in the zone group are 1.1 °C (2 °F) above their unoccupied setpoints.

Freeze Protection Setback Mode

During unoccupied Mode, if any single zone falls below 4.4 °C (40 °F), the zone group shall enter setback mode until all zones are above 7.2 °C (45 °F), and a Level 3 alarm yFreProSta shall be set.

Setup Mode

During unoccupied mode, if any 5 zones (or all zones, if fewer than 5) in the zone group rise above their unoccupied cooling setpoints TZonCooSetUno, the zone group shall enter setup mode until all spaces in the zone group are 1.1 °C (2 °F) below their unoccupied setpoints. Zones where the window switch indicates that a window is open shall be ignored.

Unoccupied Mode

Unoccupied mode shall be active if the zone group is not in any other mode.

Block to inplement trim and respond logic

Buildings.Controls.OBC.ASHRAE.G36_PR1.Generic.SetPoints.TrimAndRespond

Information

This block implements the trim and respond logic according to ASHRAE guideline G36, PART 5.A.15 (trim and respond setpoint reset logic).

The trim and respond logic shall reset setpoint within the range minSet to maxSet. When the associated device is off (uDevSta=false), the setpoint shall be iniSet. The reset logic shall be active while the associated device is proven on (uDevSta=true), starting delTim after initial device start command. When active, every time step samplePeriod, trim the setpoint by triAmo. If there are more than numIgnReq requests, respond by changing the setpoint by resAmo*(numOfReq-numIgnReq), i.e., the number of requests minus the number of ignored requests, but no more than maxRes.

In other words, every time step samplePeriod:
