A model reference adaptive control (MRAC) algorithm is proposed to the air-conditioning system of variable air volume (VAV) terminal units (VAV BOX). The study of temperature controlling parameters in room area (Zone) is based on Lyapunov stability theory. We built the simulation model in Matlab to validate the superior controlling performance and good energy saving effect of the algorithm. The research shows that the energy consumption release 60% ~70% in larger room. In modern building, the energy saving and comfort is very important, so the simulation has important engineering practical value.

For ocean-going vessels sailing in different areas on the sea, the change of external environment factors will cause frequent changes in load, traditional ship air-conditioning system is usually designed with a fixed cooling capacity, this design method causes serious waste of resources. A new type of sea-based air conditioning system is proposed in this paper, which uses the sea-based source heat pump system, combined with variable air volume, variable water technology. The multifunctional cabins’ dynamic loads for a ship navigating in a typical Eurasian route were calculated based on Simulink. The model can predict changes in full voyage load. Based on the simulation model, the effects of variable air volume and variable water volume on the energy consumption of the air-conditioning system are analyzed. The results show that: When the VAV is coupled with the VWV, the energy saving rate is 23.2%. Therefore, the application of variable air volume and variable water technology to marine air conditioning systems can achieve economical and energy saving advantages.

A new type of energy-saving magnetic amplifier controlling current and voltage of inductive load has been designed. The energy-saving magnetic amplifier with two windings wrapped across one iron core column can change impedance of the main winding by means of PWM controlling AC excitation current. The energy-saving magnetic amplifier has not used a special adjustable DC voltage circuit, has overcome disadvantages of complicated manufacturing process for the traditional excitation amplifier.The application shows the energy-saving excitation amplifier can achieve stepless dimming for high pressure sodium lamp to good energy-saving effect. The use cost of excitation amplifier is lower as simple production process, so its promotional value is great.
