Model Predictive Control of HVAC Systems: Design and Implementation on a Real Case Study

The final aim of this work is to design, implement and test a controller on a real testbed kindly provided by KTH. The control paradigm presented in this thesis is a MPC that aims at saving energy as well as keeping the temperature and the CO2 concentration in a comfort range that guarantees the wellness of room occupants. To improve the knowledge of the plant, we also study the problem of modeling both the dynamics of of the system to be controlled and of the dedicated actuation syste
