Abstract

In Current practice of building service systems control, the system operation depends solely on the instantaneuous parameters of the outdoor and indoor conditions. Such operation decreases the efficiency of the systems and for example in case of free cooling system, decreases the utilization factor of natural sources. In the paper developed controlling strategy of free cooling systems is presented. The strategy is based on weather prediction of energy potential of air temperature of following days.
