In view of the nonlinearity and difficulty in control of absorption chiller
a set point optimization method based on inverse neural network model is proposed. Firstly
taking an 11.5 kW single-effect lithium bromide absorption chiller as the research object
an artificial neural network method is used to establish a model of the unit. Through the analysis of the chiller
a network model with a 5-6-2 structure is established. The correlation coefficient of the neural network model is more than 0.99 and the root mean square error is less than 0.2%
so the experimental data are well fitted. Subsequently
the sensitivity analysis of each input parameter of the chiller is conducted to select the hot water supply temperature and the cooling water flow rate as the control input parameters to be estimated. Finally
as the control output of the system
the chilled water output temperature is optimized. The optimal control input parameters of the chilling system are estimated by combination of an improved particle swarm optimization and the inverse neural network algorithm. Through the analysis of experiment and simulation
the calculation time of this method is within 30 s
which is shorter than the stable time of absorption chiller. Moreover
the error between target output and simulation calculation is less than 0.02%. These results show that the proposed scheme is suitable for online control of absorption chiller.
