Abstract
Use of Physics Informed Neural networks (PINNs) to control building systems is non-trivial, as basic formalism of PINNs is not readily amenable to control problems. Specifically, exogenous inputs (e.g., ambient temperature) and control decisions (e.g., mass flow rates) need to be specified as functional inputs to the neural network, which may not be known a priori. The input feature space could be very high dimensional depending upon the duration (monthly, yearly, etc.) and the (min-max) range of the inputs. The disclosure herein generally relates to Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) equipment, and, more particularly, to method and system for physics aware control of HVAC equipment. The system generates a neural network model based on a plurality of exogeneous variables from the HVAC. The generated neural network model is then used to generate the one or more control signal recommendations, which are further used to control operation of the HVAC.
