Various thermostatic valves have been used widely in Korea for conservation of heating energy and enhancement of thermal comfort in residential buildings. But heating control performances of thermostatic valves extensively vary with the design and operational conditions of the heating system, climate condition and others. An experimental method was carried out in this study to analyze heating control characteristics by temperature sensing methods of thermostatic valves for various parameters, such as supply temperatures and flow rate of hot water, the position of room thermostats and outdoor air temperatures. As a result, the heat flow rate per day of S-Valve($34^{\circ}C$-Type) of water temperature sensing method was liked that of C-Valve of indoor air temperature sensing method with stage 3.3 of room thermostat in case supply temperature of hot water was $45^{\circ}C$, flow rate was 1.3 L/min and outdoor air temperature was $7.8^{\circ}C$.

As the current heating control of the greenhouse is located in specifically designed place, there is an inevitable difference in degrees depending on the latitude in it. Even though it is necessary to maintain the proper temperature in the greenhouse producing vegetables and fruit plants, the difference between ups and downs in the facilities results in the increasing energy consumption to both warm and cool down the facilities. The newest heating method, automatic control system of vertical agitation heater, which manipulates the inner air circulation efficiently, is suggested in this paper. The proposed system utilizes both the upper temperature and the lower temperature, and controls the air circulation fan and heating independently, so that maximizes the efficiency of heating with the minimum energy and implements predictable planning of farm products.

The object of this paper is to design a heating control system based on sensor networks for the house, integrated with computing technology. The proposed system can manage the heating by sensing and analyzing the temperature and humidity in apartment house and others. This system also is capable of giving a comfortable circumstances because the interior of a house is in heated by the sensory temperature based control system.

In this study, heating performance and energy consumption characteristics with control strategies for central heating system were researched by the simulation. The simulation analysis is made by TRNSYS ver. 15 with the actual data. The parametric study on proportional factor, control time interval and outdoor air temperatures changes were done to compare control characteristics and energy performance, respectively. As a result, the simulation results with various parameter changes show good heating performance and energy saving.

In this study, the effects of heating control methods on heating control performance and energy consumption in the floor radiant heating control system of residential apartments were research by computer simulation. A general regression neural network(GRNN) control method for reducing indoor temperature overshoot and saving energy in floor radiant heating system is suggested. The GRNN control method shows good responses in comparison with the conventional and outdoor reset control methods for improving indoor thermal environment and reducing energy consumption.

Most hot water heating valves for apartments are constant-flow types, which limit the flow rate through an individual household for even distribution of heating water to other households. The constant-flow type is implemented by an on-off control. As a result, heating water is supplied intermittently and hence, indoor air temperature also fluctuates. Returning water temperature is also high, which reduces energy efficiency. To implement continuous feedback control, the indoor temperature dynamics was simulated to fit a measured temperature history by a state-of-the-art physical model. From the model, it was found that the most important disturbance is outdoor temperature and its effect on indoor temperature lasts about an hour. To cope with the slow response and the significant disturbance, a prediction control with proportional feedback is proposed. The control was found to be successful in implementing continuous heating water flow and improved indoor temperature control.

냉매 충전량과 이차유체의 입구조건은 $CO_2$용 열펌프시스템의 성능실험에서 중요한 제어변수이다. 따라서, 열펌프사이클의 적용과 난방성능 향상을 위해 제어변수의 특성을 조사하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서, $CO_2$용 열펌프 사이클의 성능 실험은 여러 가지 냉매 충전량에서 이차유체 입구조건에 변화를 주어 수행 되었다. 실험결과, 난방COP는 냉매 충전량이 증가함에 따라 1158g의 냉매 충전량에서 최대가 되었다가 감소하는 경향이 나타나며, 이는 COP가 최대가 되는 냉매충전량이 존재함을 나타낸다. 또한, 난방성능은 가스쿨러내 이차유체의 질량유량의 증가에 따라 증가하였다. 가스냉각기내 2차유체의 입구은도가 $10^{\circ}C$에서 $40^{\circ}C$로 증가하면, 난방용량, 압축일량, 토출압력은 각각 -8.57%, -35.89%, 32.78%로 변화했으며, 증발기 2차유체의 입구 온도가 감소하였을 때 난방COP는 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

By describing the floor slab of a radiant heating system as a one dimensional transient heat exchanger problem, a dynamic analysis model to incorperate with TRNSYS program was developed and their results were compared with experimental results. Results showed that the both of TPOC(Two Parameter On-off Control) and TPSC(Two Parameter Switching Control) method using room air temperature and floor surface temperature as the control parameters does not maintain room air and floor surface temperature exactly at the setting temperatures. But TPSC method is a better candidate for the temperature regulations of room air and floor surface temperature than TPOC method which can keep on the upper and lower limit temperature according to outside temeperature and wall structure etc. And better thermal circumstance can be given by TPSC method than On-off and TPOC method and the overheating which can be occured at the radiant floor heating system with on-off heating control will be reduced.
