    Abstract: An active sensor calibration system includes a plurality of sensors configured to measure at least one physical quantity. Each sensor is configured to output a signal indicating at least one measured physical quantity. An electronic scenario library module is configured to store a plurality of scenarios. Each scenario is configured to excite two or more selected sensors among the plurality of sensors to generate redundancy among the selected sensors based on physical quantity models. An electronic calibration module is in signal communication with the plurality of sensors and the scenario library. The calibration module is configured to select at least one scenario from the scenario library module, determine at least one possible un-calibrated sensor among the plurality of sensors, and to identify a positive un-calibrated sensor in response to executing the at least one selected scenario.

    Abstract: A forced air handling system includes an automated monitoring system. A method of operating the automated monitoring system includes initiating a calibration mode of operation via a controller. A plurality of dampers may then close via the controller. Once closed, a duct in communication with the plurality of dampers may be pressurized. A first air flow measuring exiting each one of the plurality of dampers may be obtained by a flow sensor. The duct is then depressurized and a second airflow measurement is taken, via the controller, exiting each one of the plurality of dampers. The controller calculates a statistical difference between the first and second airflow measurements.

    Abstract: A control system for an HVAC system having a plurality of HVAC components operably associated with one or more terminal units is provided. The control system includes a coordination module and a controller having a processor and a memory, the controller operably associated with the coordination module and in signal communication with the plurality of HVAC components. The controller is configured to determine an aggregated thermal demand of the HVAC system, determine, with the coordination module, an operational setpoint for at least one HVAC component of the plurality of HVAC components based on the determined aggregated thermal demand, and send a signal indicative of each determined operational setpoint to each associated HVAC component of the plurality of HVAC components.

    Abstract: An air conditioning system includes a service system, a central treatment unit, and a plurality of zoned segments each adapted to condition air in respective zones. The service system includes a controller, specification data, a results module, and an optimization module. The specification data is stored and applied by the controller and includes information pertaining to at least one component of the air conditioning system for each zoned segment. The results module is stored and executed by the controller, and is configured to receive a sensor signal indicative of an operating condition, which is outputted by a sensor of each zoned segment, to determine a need for service. The optimization module is stored and executed by the controller, and is configured to apply the specification data, the need for service from the results module, and allocate a discipline of a plurality of disciplines relative to the service.
