EmissionOnOff

Variant onoff: on below the set point minus half the band, off above it plus half the band

FastSmoothBuildings.Controls.EmissionOnOff, model (source)

Extends PartialEmissionControl.

Purpose

Emission control of a zone, trano's variant onoff: on when the zone falls below its scheduled set point minus half the band, off when it rises above the set point plus half the band. The switch is a Hysteresis, a bistable state, so the thermostat has no event. It behaves as the OnOffController of the Modelica Standard Library with its bandwidth.

Equations

y = onOff.y, the hysteresis of u = TSet − TZon with uLow = −bandwidth/2 and uHigh = bandwidth/2.

Parameters

bandwidth = 0.1 K. The hysteresis keeps its defaults, onOff.tau = 10 s and onOff.dU = bandwidth/10; a modifier can lengthen and widen them for a calibration.

Use

Switches the ideal heater of the west room of Examples.TwoZones.

Parameters

Parameter Type Unit Default Description
bandwidth Real K 0.1 Band of the on/off controller (Modelica OnOffController)
