| Module Aim(s): | The
Building Automation (BA) system is an essential
system of modern buildings. Dynamic
performance and control of building services
systems are important for the systems to meet
the design objectives. This module
introduces the principles and application of
building automation system and building process
control. It also enables students explore
on these issues: (1) network and configuration
of building automation (BA) and intelligent
building (IB) systems; (2) interfacing BA system
with building services systems; (3) dynamic
performance of building processes/systems,
control fundamentals and building process
control; and (4) control strategies for better
energy efficiency and building environmental
performance. |
| Learning Outcomes: | On
completion of this Module, students are expected
to be able to: 1. undertake architectural design and specify the requirements for building automation systems and intelligent building technologies; 2. assess the impact of using different architectures, LAN protocols/standards in BA system design and selection; 3. design and analyse the control of building processes and manage the stability and tuning issues of process control; 4. specify supervisory control and management strategies and assess their impact on indoor environmental quality, energy efficiency and reliability of systems, and equipment; and 5. specify the integration/interface of building automation systems with building services systems and integration between different intelligent building systems. |
