GCHP system optimal predictive control based on RBFNN and APSO algorithm

Aiming at energy consumption saving problem of ground-coupled heat pump (GCHP) system, a nonlinear optimal control strategy based on adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithm and radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) predictive control algorithm is proposed in this paper. This paper firstly utilizes RBFNN for estimating the GCHP system model and forecast the output values, then calculated the optimal control inputs of the GCHP system via the rolling optimization of APSO algorithm. Finally, the simulation results show that this control strategy can efficiently reduce the total energy consumption of the GCHP system.
