Automatic Generation of Model for Building Energy Management
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
This paper proposes a model transformation ap-proach for model-based energy management in buildings. Indeed, energy management is a large area that covers a wide range of applications such as simulation, mixed integer linear pro-gramming optimization, simulated annealing optimization, model parameter estimation, diagnostic analysis,. . . Each application re-quires a model but in a specific formalism with specific additional information. Up to now, application models are rewritten for each application. In building energy management, because the optimization problems may be dynamically generated, model transformation should be done dynamically, depending on the problem to solve. For this purpose, a model driven engineering approach combined with the use of a computer algebra system is proposed. This paper presents the core specifications of the transformation of a so-called high level pivot model into applica-tion specific models. As an example, transformations of a pivot model into both an acausal linear model for mixed integer linear programming optimization and a causal non-linear model for simulated annealing optimization are presented. These models are used for energy management of a smart building platform named Monitoring and Habitat Intelligent located at PREDIS/ENSE3 in Grenoble, France.
