Introduction:
Welcome back, the following document will complement this year’s module content and hopefully provide relevant information for you in the future. Following the same format from last year’s notes this document again contains many extra documents and links which will guide you to a successful completion of Building Automation 3.
This semester we will concentrate on the various strategies to control the temperature of water used in buildings and the thermal comport of the building occupants. It is important that we discuss the fundamentals of Analogue to Digital Conversion and, similarly, Digital to Analogue Conversion. During the laboratory time we will focus on creating a user friendly SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system to operate the building control systems and develop a control system
