IEA SHC Task 38 Solar Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Subtask A Report, Date:… 3 Control Strategy The installation control is realized by the internal controller of the Sonnenkilma chiller. Indeed, this chiller goes with its internal regulation. This controller can be remotely programmed via an internet access and a VPN. The control strategy is as follows: The solar loop’s pump starts when the solar radiation reaches a certain value. So the hot storage starts warming up. Then, when the temperature at the top of the hot tank reaches a certain value (75°C), the three pumps of the chiller starts running (generator, evaporator, and condenser). And the cold production begins. Of course, several setpoint and thresholds were established to stop the installation in case of problems or at the end of the day. As it was explained in the previous paragraph, the system was designed to be as simple as possible. And it is the same principle for the control strategy. 4 Monitoring Equipment 4.1 Installed Equipment The measured data are basically the energy flow for every loop of the installation. As a consequence, at least two temperature measurement and one flowrate measurement are taken for each loop of the installation. The solar radiation and the overall electricity consumption of the installation are also measured.

3 Control Str<strong>at</strong>egy<br />

The install<strong>at</strong>ion control is realized by the internal controller of the Sonnenkilma chiller.<br />

Indeed, this chiller goes with its internal regul<strong>at</strong>ion. This controller can be remotely<br />

programmed via an internet access <strong>and</strong> a VPN.<br />

The control str<strong>at</strong>egy is as follows:<br />

The solar loop’s pump starts when the solar radi<strong>at</strong>ion reaches a certain value. So the hot<br />

storage starts warming up.<br />

Then, when the temper<strong>at</strong>ure <strong>at</strong> the top of the hot tank reaches a certain value (75°C), the<br />

three pumps of the chiller starts running (gener<strong>at</strong>or, evapor<strong>at</strong>or, <strong>and</strong> condenser). And the<br />

cold production begins.<br />

Of course, several setpoint <strong>and</strong> thresholds were established to stop the install<strong>at</strong>ion in case of<br />

problems or <strong>at</strong> the end of the day.<br />

As it was explained in the previous paragraph, the system was designed to be as simple as<br />

possible. And it is the same principle for the control str<strong>at</strong>egy.<br />

4 Monitoring Equipment<br />

4.1 Installed Equipment<br />

The measured d<strong>at</strong>a are basically the energy flow for every loop of the install<strong>at</strong>ion. As a<br />

consequence, <strong>at</strong> least two temper<strong>at</strong>ure measurement <strong>and</strong> one flowr<strong>at</strong>e measurement are<br />

taken for each loop of the install<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />

The solar radi<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>and</strong> the overall electricity consumption of the install<strong>at</strong>ion are also<br />

measured.<br />
