Abstract
Fast demand response is a high-value solution to the grid power imbalance. Shutting down part of the operating chillers of building air-conditioning systems has proven to be a simple and effective method for fast demand response. However, the implementation of this method would lead to uneven indoor air temperature rises among individual air-conditioned building zones under the existing conventional feedback controls. This study therefore proposes a smart feedback control strategy to address this problem. Validation tests are conducted and results show that the limited cooling supply is distributed properly and even indoor air temperature rises among building zones are finally achieved. The proposed control strategy can satisfy the expected power limiting threshold while achieving even indoor thermal comfort compromise among building zones.
