DDC - Direct Digital Control of an HVAC system

z

A method of monitoring and controlling HVAC system performance by collecting, processing, and sending information using sensors, actuators, and microprocessors.

What is DDC?

z

DDC is the concept or theory of HVAC system control that uses digital controls

z

Physically, DDC encompasses all the devices used to implement this control method: a whole group of DDC controllers/microprocessors, actuators, sensors, and other devices.

What is DDC?

DDC - the Control Theory input-process-output cycle

z

A point is ANY input or output device used to control the overall or specific performance of equipment or output devices related to the equipment.

AI z Analog input - a sensor that monitors physical data, such as temperature, flow, or pressure. DI z Discrete input - a sensor that monitors status. Momentary and maintained switches, ON-OFF equipment status, and digital pulses from flow and electric power meters are discrete inputs. AOz Analog output - a physical action of a proportional device in the controlled equipment - e.g., actuator opens air damper from 20% to 40%, other dampers, valves, inlet guide vanes, etc. DOz Discrete output - changes or maintains device status. Performs momentary or maintained switching for start/stop of pumps, fans, two-position dampers, and on/off control. Four Kinds of Points

Input sensors and status devices react to changes in conditions. Conditions include internal load, outside air temperature, and output actions.

Output devices act based on sensor and status device reactions.

Ex. 1:

Open cooling coil valve (output action). Supply air temperature sensor

Ex. 2:

Filters on an air handler get dirty (conditions). Air switch reacts by

SAT detects (input reaction) decrease in temperature.

PID = Proportional-Integral-Derivative Control z

z

What it is: This type of control algorithm is based on value/amount (proportion), rate of change (integral), and error allowances (derivative). PID control calculates and sends commands for outputs based on all three types of information. Advantages: More precise than P and PI controls, PID wastes less energy based on more frequent feedback and quicker responses.

What Is PID Control?

z

What it is: Control algorithm based only on value/amount (proportion).

z

Disadvantages: Less precise than PID and PI control; cannot respond to error margins or time. Uses the most energy due to over- and under- outputs. Proportional Control (P)

z

What it is: Control algorithm based on value/amount (proportion), rate of change (integral). PID uses error allowances (derivative) as well. Advantages: More precise control and less energy used than proportional (P); minimum swings from setpoints. Proportional-Integral Control (PI) & (PID)

Main AHU provides morning warm-up heat until RAT setpoint is satisfied – all zones at 100% design airflow AHU switches to 55°F discharge air controlled cooling – zones modulate CFM to controls space temp No AHU heat remainder of day – individual zone reheat or baseboard as needed

Types of Direct Digital Control Networks

z

Interface - devices and software that work as a translator between a DDC system and the humans who operate it.

z

An interface is the operator’s window into a building’s operating systems and conditions.

Interfaces to DDC

21

3/11/2013

User interfaces: •

Allow more efficient system operation monitoring. You can look at what’s happening on all floors from the tenth floor if DDC network is peer-to-peer.



Allow immediate diagnosis of HVAC units and controls, including changes, without physically being in front of the unit.



Can provide reports (e.g., historical, consumable, run times, system activity) to be used as records of building operations.



Can provide graphical representations of the controlled system. User Interface Benefits

Integration Interoperability is the ability of different devices from the same or different manufacturers to function accurately together. Standard protocol - a set of guidelines for commands, inputs, and output encoding to create a universal language for all DDC devices. When the same standard protocol is used in DDC devices, interoperability is possible. Gateways - devices added to DDC networks to make standard protocols available and interoperability possible. Interoperability

BACnet

Standard protocol requirements for Building Automation and Control networking, created by ASHRAE to ensure interoperability. BACnet uses software and a LAN interface to DDC to provide: • • •

Representation of all manufacturer devices’ internal functioning in a common, network-visible way. A common command set for device services. Common encoding of commands, understandable by all devices and interfaces adhering to the protocol.

Typical Questions z

z

Q: What part of the control system is done by the HVAC designer? What is done by the installing contractor? Do most HVAC engineers actually do control system work or is that done by specialty contractors? A: Depends on the project –

A good designer lays out the control system as an integral part of the mechanical system, including: z z





Sequence of operation Front-end/user interface details

The details of hardware, software, and cabling should be left to the contractor since every manufacturer’s system is different Unfortunately, most designers rely on manufacturers to write project specs, or worse, contractors to design in the field as they install

32

Typical Questions z

z

Q: How does one select the type, number, and position of sensors? (i.e. measure temp in a room or in the supply duct? Where in the room or duct do the sensors go? How many go in each room?) A: Depends on the project –

Best to measure what you want to control – usually space temp z z



Mount between 4 and 5 ft high, out of direct sunlight, and in the return air path One sensor per controllable piece of equipment is best – usually one per room

Many exceptions for specialty systems and/or install cost compromises

Typical Questions z

z

Q: How does one go about determining the coefficients of a P, PI, or PID controller and tune the system once it has been installed? A: Practice and Patience –

– – –

Zero out the derivative term – HVAC equipment and building systems react too slowly for it to matter Tune the proportional term first, then worry about integral term Make small changes and monitor Use a dynamic graph
