Simulate ThermoStatic Control • By Engineering Analysis the ODE with Highest Order Term ISOLATED • Integrate to Isolate T(t) on LHS
Simulate ThermoStatic Control • Note for • T(t) appears on BOTH Side of the Eqn → Use FEEDBACk • The Integrand is in the form of a SUM • Also the thermostat in this case has a 2F DEADBAND • Implement using SimuLink’s RELAY function
The Part-a SimuLink Model • RELAY → Discontinuities Library • MUX → Commonly Used Blocks Library • SINE WAVE FUNCTION → Math Operations Library • TO WORKSPACE (simout)→ Sinks Library
Test Large & Small Furnaces • The SimuLink Model
The Output for Small Fnce • Note • Small Fnce canNOT keep up with heating load when Ta drops below about 55F • 2 Hour Time-Lag as predicted by plot(tout, simout(:,1), tout,simout(:,2)), xlabel('time (hrs)'),... ylabel('Temperature (F)'), title('Prob 9.15, part-a')
The Large Furnace CAN Keep Up with Heat load at coldest Outside Temps Result for Large Fnce • The RH*qmax Product indicates the MAXIMUM Temp Difference that the Furnace+Insulation combination can accommodate • In This case (T-Ta)min = 70F – (50-10)F = 30F • The Small Fnce is Overwhelmed
To Determine Daily Energy Use, E, Need to time-integrate the fnce Power Output over 24hrs Part b – Daily Energy Use • For an Arbitrary time • Refine the Part-a model to • Gain Access to qmax alone • Use the integrator Block to find E
The Part-b SimuLink Model • Note the Output scaling to “PG&E” Units • 1 “Therm” = 100 kBTU
Small Fnce Energy Use • Large Fnce St-Line → Fnce On 100% of time • Note Differing Slopes Before & After ~11hr • Fewer Therms, but Cold Inside
