  Description

  The estimation of the temperature and airflow distribution in buildings via the location of sensor networks is a nonlinear and multiscale problem where dynamics and measurements are (in general) stochastically perturbed. The goal here is to reliably outline temperature and airflow in certain areas by placing sensors on prescribed admissible locations while optimizing several criteria. A trustworthy estimation, provided that closed-loop controllers are in place, becomes a main step in reducing the energy consumption of such control systems.

  Description

  The optimal sensor placement problem for the estimation of the temperature distribution in buildings is a highly nonlinear and multi-scale problem where stochastic perturbations are usually present. The main goal here is to properly locate sensors in order to reliably estimate the temperature distribution in certain areas. Since feedback controllers are usually in use, a proper estimation of the state is of utmost importance in order to reduce energy consumption of such controllers.
