Automated Testbed for Building Systems Components

用于可再生能源的热转换和集成，系统带有组件(热泵、热交换器、吸收器、集热器等)。要求遵循低EX原则，以低温差实现高效率。要实现这些效率，必须准确了解组件的行为。因此，在实验室条件下进行测量是研究和开发这类系统的主要先决条件。试验台的任务是实现这种组件的精确测量。这不仅为组件的静态行为也为动态行为的精确建模和仿真提供了数据。然后，通过半实物仿真和验证，再次使用试验台，将这些模型反馈到新系统的研究中。由于不够稳定的条件和缺乏控制选项，无法通过在实验室试验台外的原型和演示器环境中进行测试来获取测量数据和对这种质量进行模型验证。试验台的特点是有三种媒体流可供选择：1.用于热量和水分传输的高功率空调气流(高达25 kW)，2.也具有高功率传输的空调液体流(高达25 kW)，以及3.用于有限功率应用的空调气流，以模拟两种室内或室外气候(高达5 kW)。测量遵循三个使用案例：1.建筑服务部件中的热量和湿度交换，2.湿空气和空气集热器的测量，以及3.室内空调的气流测量。该单位的重点之一将是研究基于开放式吸收和集成热泵的空气对空气系统的新型系统组件。这包括使用太阳辐射作为热源，将潜热传输作为湿度，以及其他基于纳米流体的方法，以建立较低损失的传输原理。此外，该设备将使室内舒适性的实验研究能够在这种新型系统以及传统建筑服务系统的背景下进行。最后，该设备为机器学习(ML)生成的数据驱动预测模型提供了数据获取的机会，这些模型代表了复杂的热力学过程，以便按照基于组件的ML范例以灵活的方式进一步模拟和规划。

For the heat transition and integration of renewable energies, systems with components (heat pumps, heat exchangers, absorbers, collectors, etc.) are required that achieve high efficiencies with low temperature differences following the low-ex principle. To achieve these efficiencies, the behavior of the components must be precisely known. Measurement under laboratory conditions is therefore a central prerequisite for the research and development of such systems. The task of the testbed is to enable this precise measurement of components. This provides data for precise modeling and simulation of not only the static but also the dynamic behavior of the components. These models then feed back into the research of novel systems through hardware-in-the-loop simulation and validation, again using the testbed. Due to insufficiently stable conditions and a lack of control options, the acquisition of measurement data and model validation of this quality is not possible through testing in the context of prototypes and demonstrators outside of a laboratory testbed. The special feature of the testbed is that three media streams are available: 1. a conditioned air stream with high power application for heat and moisture transfer (up to 25 kW), 2. a conditioned liquid stream also with high power transfer (up to 25 kW) and 3. a conditioned air stream for limited power application to simulate a two indoor or outdoor climate (up to 5 kW). The measurements follow three use cases: 1. heat and moisture exchange in building services components, 2. measurement of humid air and air collectors, and 3. measurement of airflow for indoor conditioning. One focus of the unit will be to investigate novel system components based on open absorption and air-to-air systems that integrate heat pumps. This includes the use of solar radiation as a heat source with latent heat transport as humidity and other nanofluid-based methods to establish lower-loss transport principles. In addition, the device will enable experimental research on indoor comfort in the context of such novel systems as well as conventional building services systems. Finally, the device provides opportunities of data acquisition for data-driven prediction models generated by machine learning (ML) that represent complex thermodynamic processes for further simulation and planning in an agile manner following the paradigm of component-based ML.
