Efficiency in Electrical Heating Systems: An MAS Real World Application
نویسندگان
چکیده
In electrical heating systems, the electrical power consumption should be lower than the Contracted Power Limit. Energy distribution devices are used to solve this problem, but they are only concerned with the electrical energy. We claim that this energy distribution must also consider the comfort level in the building. In this work, an electrical energy distribution MAS for coordinating the electrical heaters is proposed. The MAS is responsible for both objectives: the electrical power must be lower than the Contracted Power Limit and the comfort level in the building must be maintained if sufficient power is available. The MAS is now being implemented in a real world application of an electrical heating system marketed by a local company.

Many real time processes have complex, uncertain and nonlinear dynamics. Boilers are nonlinear, time varying, multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems, whose states generally vary with operating conditions. The major problem in controlling that system is that its drum water pressure and steam flow dynamics include an integrator that results a critically stable behavior. Conventional controller p...
