Abstract
The design and operation of integrated building energy and control systems pose formidable challenges with respect to the interdisciplinary nature and with respect to the various temporal and spatial scales that govern the transient response of such systems. We start this presentation by discussing the various temporal scales of such systems. Next, we discuss the current approach of building energy system simulation and its applicability to controls analysis. We present ongoing activities in building system modeling based on the Modelica language that supports the computer-simulation based rapid prototyping of new energy systems, as well as the development and analysis of building control systems. We also discuss extensions to the Ptolemy II program that led to the Building Controls Virtual Test Bed which is used for co-simulation of building energy and control systems. Various applications that are enabled by such a new approach to building modeling and simulation will be presented. We close by presenting R&D needs to make the above discussed technologies wider applicable.
