Master Thesis: Model Predictive Control–Based Energy Management System (EMS) for an Office Building
With the increasing demand for residential comfort and the rising importance of energy cost optimization, it is a major challenge to balance comfort, economy, and sustainable energy usage in residential buildings. Advanced energy management systems (EMS) provide a practical solution for achieving this goal.
This thesis will develop a Model Predictive Control (MPC)–based EMS for a data-driven building model, created using neural networks in MATLAB or Python. The building model will represent a modular office building, including thermal zones, a HVAC system, a static heating system, a cold water storage tank, and an electric chiller for cooling. The MPC-based EMS will optimize pre-heating in winter and pre-cooling in summer, taking into account electricity prices, including the contribution of a photovoltaic (PV) system, and the operation of thermal storage and cooling equipment.
Tasks:
* Development of a neural network–based building model capable of predicting thermal dynamics for heating and cooling scenarios
* Design and implementation of a Model Predictive Control–based EMS for Winter and Summer operations, Considering:
o Pre-heating and pre-cooling strategies
o Cold water storage and electric chiller operation
o Static heating System
o HVAC System
o Dynamic electricity prices and PV generation
Qualification:
* Knowledge in energy system analysis, building modeling, and control
* Experience with MATLAB/Simulink or Python (essential for neural network modeling and MPC implementation)
* Knowledge in machine learning (neural networks) and predictive control concepts
* Mechanical, Electrotechnical, or Informatics background
