Model predictive control (MPC) can improve the performance of HVAC systems, particularly those with thermal storage. The seminar illustrates the use of MPC to control a campus chilled water plant with a large thermal storage tank and to control a radiant slab cooling system. MPC can also provide a useful framework for controlling conventional chiller water plant when weather and loads change in a predictable way. The presentations provide an overview of the methods used and how they can be applied to real systems. Real and simulated results that compare the benefits of MPC to conventional control are presented.
