Predictive control for indoor environment based on thermal adaptation.

Previous studies show that the indoor environment quality (IEQ) of buildings directly affects human health and comfort. This study aims to predict the change of indoor parameters at the next moment under the influences of the current indoor climate and outdoor climate and control the IEQ parameters based on the human thermal adaption in advance. We combine the simulation and the mathematical method to establish the office building model with air-conditioning and lighting systems and construct the bilinear model of the IEQ parameters and control variables.
