26、pts. It begins with a discussion ofwhy controls are required in HVAC systems and a brief history of the devel-opment of control products. Next, we introduce the concept of a control loop,the basic building block of all control systems, and the various control strate-gies and algorithms used in contr
27、ol loops. After studying this chapter, youshould understand:Why controls are necessary in HVAC systems.The difference between open and closed control loops.How two-position, floating, and modulating control loops work.Proportional control.Integral and derivative control action in modulating control
28、loops.How to tune control loops.The difference between direct acting and reverse acting.Difference between normally open and normally closed.How controlled devices may be sequenced using a single controller.1.1 Why Do We Need Controls?We need controls and control systems because, in our modern age o
29、f technol-ogy, they make our lives more convenient, comfortable, efficient, and effec-tive. A control enables equipments to operate effectively and sometimesgives the ability to change their actions as time goes on and conditions oroccupancies change. Controls can be devices used to monitor the inpu
30、ts andregulate the output of systems and equipments. You use controls every day.For example, when you shower in the morning you sense the water tempera-ture and manually modulate the hot and cold water valves to produce thedesired temperature. When you drive to work, you monitor your speed usingthe
31、speedometer and manually control the accelerator of your car to maintainthe desired speed. When you get to your office, you sense a shortage of lightso you manually switch on the overhead lighting.These are all examples of closed-loop manual controls. The term manualmeans that you (a person, rather
32、than a device) are acting as the controller;you are making the decisions about what control actions to take. The termclosed-loop means that you have feedback from the actions you have taken.In these examples, the feedback comes from your senses of touch and sight:as you open the hot water valve in y
33、our shower, you can sense the tempera-ture of the water increase; when you depress the accelerator, you can see thatyour speed is increasing by viewing the speedometer; and when you turn onthe light, you can see that the brightness in the space has increased.Your car may also be equipped with cruise
34、 control, to automatically main-tain speed on a clear road, which is an example of an automatic control. Anautomatic control is simply a device that imitates the actions you would takeduring manual control. In this case, when you press the set-button on thecruise control panel, you are telling the c
35、ontroller the speed you desire, orthe set point. The controller measures your speed and adjusts the position ofthe accelerator to attempt to maintain the cars speed at set point the desiredspeed just as you do when you manually control the speed.You may notice that your cruise control system is able
36、 to maintain yourcars speed at a given set point more precisely than you can manually. Thisis generally because you are not paying strict attention to controlling yourspeed; you must also steer, watch for traffic and perform all of the other func-tions required for safe driving. This is one reason w
37、hy we use automatic con-trols: we do not have the time or desire, or perhaps the ability, to constantlymonitor a process to maintain the desired result.Controls of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning, and refrigerating(HVAC it controlled boiler output byopening and closing the boiler door, or
38、a combustion air damper to controlthe rate of combustion. These devices were known as regulators. Other appli-cations were to control steam radiators and steam heating coils. (Most steamradiators at that time were turned on and off by hand.)Dr. Andrew Ure was probably the first person to call his re
39、gulator a thermo-stat and we still use this name 150 years later. These devices were soon used tocontrol temperatures in incubators, railway cars, theaters, and restaurants.Two other devices were developed to compete with the bimetallic strip. Thefirst was a mercury thermometer column, having a cont
40、act low in the mercuryand one or more contacts above the top of the column. Increasing temperature3Introduction to HVAC Control Systemscaused the mercury to rise and make contact with an upper electrode, therebycompleting the circuit. This extremely accurate thermostat was nonadjustable.The second d
41、evice, a mercury switch uses a drop of mercury in a small,sealed glass tube with contacts at one or both ends. The horizontal glass tubeis concave upwards, must be mounted level, and will make or break a circuitwith a slight impulse from a bellows or bimetal sensor. This slight impulse ismultiplied
42、by the mass of the moving mercury. This device (discussed inChapter 4) still is used to control countless HVAC systems.Refrigeration systems used thermostats to cycle the motor driving the com-pressor, or to open and close valves to modulate capacity. The first refrigera-tion systems controlled the
43、flow of refrigerant by hand. When smallerautomatic equipment was developed, high side floats, low side floats, andconstant pressure valves (automatic expansion valves) came into use.These early control devices were generally electric; their function was tomake or break an electric circuit that turne
44、d on a fan or pump, opened a valveor damper, etc. Some early controls (particularly burner controls on furnacesand boilers) were self-powered; meaning they drew their energy from the pro-cess itself rather than from an external source such as electricity. The need forinexpensive modulating controls
45、(controls that could regulate output over acontinuous range rather than cycling from full-on to full-off) lead to the devel-opment of pneumatic controls that use compressed air as the control powerrather than electricity.Pneumatic controls are inherently analog (modulating). With the invention ofthe
46、 electron tube, analog electronic controls were developed. These controlsnowuseanalogsolid-state(semiconductor)devicestoprovidethedesiredcontrolfunctions.Finally,withtheemergenceofpowerfulandinexpensivemicroproces-sors, digital controls were developed. Digital controls (often called direct digitalco
47、ntrols or DDC) use software programmed into circuits to effect control logic.Thesefivecontrolsystemtypesself-poweredcontrols(describedinChapter6),electric controls (Chapter 7), pneumatic controls (Chapter 8), analog electroniccontrols (Chapter 9), and digital controls (Chapter 10)are the basis of mo
48、d-ern control systems. Most control systems today use a combination of the fivesystem types and are more accurately called hybrid control systems.All of the various types of hardware used in temperature control systems(in the past, currently, and in the future) are based on the same fundamentalprinc
49、iples of control. While the technology used to implement these principlesmay change, the fundamental concepts generally remain the same. Theseprinciples are the subject of the rest of this chapter.(The historical information in this section is from the ASHRAE publication,Heat and Cold: Mastering the Great Indoors.)1.3 Control LoopsThe process of driving your car at a given speed is an example of a controlloop. You use your speedometer to measure your cars speed. If you are belowthe desired speed, you press the accelerator and observe the response. If youc
