Improving Efficiency of Greenhouse Heating Systems Using Model Predictive Control
This article presents a comparison of commercial and model based predictive control strategies aimed at optimizing efficiency of classical heating systems used in greenhouse temperature control. Two kind of heating systems are considered: aerial pipes with hot water and air-fan heaters. By using simple linearized models of the system around the predefined setpoints and a generalized predictive ...
متن کاملOn the Evaluation of Solar Greenhouse Efficiency in Building Simulation during the Heating Period
Among solar passive systems integrated in buildings, sunspaces or solar greenhouses represent a very interesting solution. A sunspace is a closed, southbound volume, constituted by transparent surfaces, adjacent to a building, which reduces winter energy demand thanks to the use of solar gains. The effect of a typical solar greenhouse on the energy balance of a building was evaluated during the...
متن کاملModeling and optimal design of ground air collector for heating in controlled environment greenhouse
A mathematical model is devised to study the thermal behavior of a greenhouse while heating with a ground air collector (GAC). A computer program based on MatLab software has been used to predict the plant and room temperatures as a function of various design parameters of the ground air collector. Extensive experiments have been conducted during December 2000 to March 2001 for an even span gre...
متن کاملMathematical modeling for greenhouse heating by using thermal curtain and geothermal energy
A thermal model has been developed for the heating of a greenhouse by using inner thermal curtain and natural flow of geothermal warm water through the polyethylene tube laid on its floor. The calculations were done for a typical production greenhouse with the climatic data in the central part of Argentina during winter period. From the energy conservations point of view, the greenhouse has bee...
متن کاملA Non-linear Optimal Greenhouse Control Problem with Heating and Ventilation
A simplified non-linear dynamic model of greenhouse crop growth with constraints on the state and the control signal is considered. The weather is assumed to be known. The optimization criterion is to minimize the heating and ventilation cost. In this paper a novel solution is presented for the case when both the heating cost and the ventilation cost are included in the criterion. Important pro...
