A system for monitoring thermal comfort of a room. Sensor data concerning temperature, relative humidity, air speed and air flow may be collected from the room. The sensor data may provide thermal comfort level information about the room. The level information may be quantified in terms of a thermal comfort level index, such as a predicted mean vote, which can be used to identify one or more thermal comfort levels in the room with a numerical measure. The one or more levels may be portrayed as a visualization in terms of a 3D plot of temperature, humidity and air speed, several 2D plots, a dashboard, or other items. The visualization may easily enable one to see where setpoint adjustment is possible in a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system to save energy while maintaining thermal comfort acceptable to occupants in the room, whether during a heating season or a cooling season.
摘要:
An approach for monetizing performance of building system equipment such as HVAC equipment. Expected and actual performance curves may be obtained for the HVAC equipment. Differences between the curves may indicate energy consumption. The energy consumption may be monetized. The monetizing may be of degradation that occurs when the equipment deteriorates, incurs a fault or has a loss of performance as accrued over time. Monetizing may incorporate maintenance and capital risk exposure. The monetizing may be a conversion of analyses of the equipment to money in real time. Performance monitoring of the equipment may incorporate predictive trending which may lead to fault prognosis and preventative maintenance. Automation of the conversion may result in immediate information and feedback to customers. The information may be stored for historical purposes and future analyses.

A process includes mapping a data format in an object in a source schema to a data format in an object in a destination schema. The mapping includes a set of options as a function of analogs in the source and destination schema. The process also includes defining an attribute mapping, defining a relation between the data format in the object in the source schema and the data format in the object in the destination schema, mapping the data format in the object in the source schema to the data format in the object in the destination schema, and converting the data format in the object in the source schema to another data format within the source schema. When the object in the source schema has no analog in destination schema, a foreign object is introduced into the destination schema, and when the object in the destination schema refers to one or more dependent objects, one or more instances of referred objects are generated according to a predefined policy in the mapping. The process completes by converting data in the object in the source schema to the data format in the object of the destination schema.

A method includes receiving into a computer processor a building control subsystem design drawing, and identifying a plurality of objects in the building control subsystem design drawing by comparing the objects to a template of objects. The template of objects includes one or more of a representation of a shape, a color, and a texture. A physical relationship among the plurality of objects is determined, and a three dimensional representation of the plurality of objects is retrieved from a three dimensional device library. A three dimensional building control subsystem graphic is generated by mapping the three dimensional representation of the plurality of objects into a three dimensional user interface as a function of the physical relationship. The three dimensional user interface is animated and interactive to monitor and control a building subsystem.
摘要:
An object oriented rule-based system and method that combines rule-based technology and object-oriented programming in order to provide an efficient approach for adding decision-making and inferencing capabilities to different applications. The rule-based system can include a RETE match algorithm, which can be modified to support pure object-based variable pattern matching. The LHS of a rule base can be compiled into several condition patterns, which includes a transformer integer array in order to record object variables positions. A RETE node can propagate tokens smoothly by asserting the object variable based on inheritance type hierarchy and the rules can be fired when the conditions are satisfied. The object oriented rule system can be utilized to add or remove rules at run time.
摘要:
An approach for building management, energy management and facility management systems and particularly to data models representing building and operational configurations of the systems. More particularly, the disclosure pertains to standard data models for representing these configurations and their transformation from non-standard form into a standard form defined by domain ontologies. The transformation is of ad hoc and disparate technical reference information into an ontologically correct and validated complex hierarchy with an associated set of integrated digital information.

Methods and apparatus are provided for a scalable user interface system. A user interface is divided into general reusable user interface components and application specific user interface components. Next profiles are created for user interfaces based upon server capabilities and client side device capabilities and reusable user interface components are built for use in multiple profiles. Defined user interface scalability strategies are executed at runtime to build a user interface description using the user interface components. In this way, a user interface can be built from a user interface description by apportioning the building of the user interface description between a server and a client side device using the profiles. At the server, user interface components stored in memory are used to build a first portion of the user interface description while a second portion of the user interface description is built at the client side device and is combined with the first portion received from the server.
摘要:
A method and system for providing an integrated building summary dashboard application. The dashboard can be implemented, for example, as a Rich Internet Application (RIA), which integrates with multiple data sources. A data warehouse can be utilized to consolidate and store the data related to a particular dashboard. The dashboard can be configured by integrating high-level metrics with key performance indicators to provide an overview, which can then be granularized to provide detailed information. The dashboard can also be configured to include a data chart that provides a “glimpse” of information associated with key performance indicators. The data chart can be configured to utilize a target bar as input to an interactive what-if analysis, and an output can be utilized to automatically drive control automation system changes.
