Abstract


Building Automation System (BAS) is currently being applied a lot in modern high-rise building systems. The main objective of the BAS system is to monitor and control all systems in the smart building with a single control system to optimize actual performance. In which the air conditioning system (HVAC) is one of the most important systems in the BAS system. The content of the article presents the results of using Andover Continuum software of Schneider Electric in the work of setting up drivers and designing the monitoring interface for HVAC application of air conditioning system information in PVI building (Hanoi). Through our audience analysis, the authors came up with the algorithm driver; built  the transport module modular control and cold water pump pressure according to 2 circuit structure adjustment. Based on the research method of simulation combined with the system experiment, the result shows that the control parameters follow the set value with the error within the allowable limits (the error of temperature is less than 0.3°C, and the error of pressure is less than 0.65%). HVAC operating parameters are fully monitored, closely and directly.
