A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO AUTOMATION OF HVAC SYSTEMS

Diplomska naloga opisuje razvoj, vodenje in nadzor toplotne postaje, katere funkcija je priprava sanitarne tople vode. Najprej je podrobno podan celoten življenjski cikel sistema za vodenje, vse od definicije potreb in želja naročnika, do načrtovanja, delovanja in upokojitve sistema. Temu sledi opis ključnih elementov v avtomatizaciji tega sistema. Uporabljen je krmilnik HAWK podjetja Honeywell. Programira se v programskem okolju COACH AX, ki je skupaj s primerom tudi predstavljen. Poudarek je tudi na nadzornem sistemu SCADA in na regulaciji temperature.This diploma paper describes the development, realization and control of a heating station that is used for the preparation of domestic hot water. Firstly, the entire life cycle of a system is presentedstarting with the definition of the needs and desires of a customer, planning and all the way to the system use and retirement. Secondly, a description of the key elements in the automation of the system is given. The HAWK controller by Honeywell was programmed in the program environment COACH AX, which is presented together with an example. The focus is also on the control system SCADA and temperature control
