Original Abstract

Maintain the indoor climate conditions so that they keep compatible with the occupants comfort is a key issue for control of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems (HVAC systems), this process requires the availability of HVAC systems that could respond to changes in outdoor climatic conditions where it would be possible to keep the indoor climatic conditions required. Computer modeling is one of the effective means that have been contributing so much to make a major development in HVAC systems design, it offers a virtual environment similar to real climatic conditions indoor and outdoor both, and it aims basically to devise solutions for control of climatic conditions what helps designers to design HVAC systems and control strategies based on those models. MATLAB/Simulink software has an advanced ability to simulate HVAC systems by creating of a wide working environment for the designers depending on the development of mathematical models and simulating them by Simulink so that results output could be comparable with the desired ones. In this paper a simplified mathematical model of climatic indoor conditions has been presented where it would be possible eventually to maintain the conditions that are compatible with the occupants comfort, this model was created through simulation for HVAC systems by using Simulink with a control strategy that has been proposed in order to achieve the outputs required.
