Abstract

Building Management System should be a hot topic during this century. The potential for energy saving that BMS gives to a building is very high. BMS has started to implementation in commercial buildings to enable monitoring and control of the various intelligent systems like Heating Ventilation and Air - Conditioning (HVAC), safety, access and lighting systems. Heating Ventilation and Air - Conditioning (HVAC) systems in buildings must be complemented with a good control scheme to maintain comfort under any load situations. Efficient HVAC control usually is the most cost-effective option to improve the energy efficiency of a building. However, HVAC procedures are nonlinear, and features change on a seasonal basis so the effect of changing the control strategy is usually difficult to predict. Intention of this thesis is to reduce energy consumptions by defining new HVAC control strategies and design a technical solution for a new commercial building. To study the potential for energy savings and to redefine control situations, we have figure out - concept a new commercial building.
