Human-in-the-Loop Approach in Thermostatically Controlled Loads

2019 American Control Conference (ACC), 2019
The goal of this study is to include a model of human decisions and preference in the control loop of a cyber-physical system (CPS). An electrical smart grid is selected as an example of such a CPS, and human decision and preference in utilization of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) are considered to be included in the control loop of TCLs.

Multilayered Self-triggered Control for Thermostatically Controlled Loads

IECON 2019 - 45th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2019
In this paper, a controller with multilayer structure is proposed to regulate the thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs), so that power sharing and comfort states consensus can be achieved. Since TCLs have great potential to reduce the fluctuations caused by photovoltaic in the building microgrid community, the control of a cluster of TCLs has ...

State Estimation and Control of Heterogeneous Thermostatically Controlled Loads for Load Following

2012 45th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2012
Thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs), such as refrigerators, air conditioners, and electric water heaters, can be aggregated and used to deliver power systems services. The effectiveness of control strategies depends on the level of infrastructure and communications.

A PID controller for Direct Load Control of Thermostatically Controlled Appliances

2019 IEEE 58th Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), 2019
Wind and Solar farms are rapidly growing to produce electricity as sustainable resources; however, integrating these renewable resources into the existing power system has introduced new challenges due to their rapid fluctuations. These fast varying generation tends to decrease the reliability of the grid. Managing the demand side is one method to cope

Evaluation of Equivalent Battery Model Representations for Thermostatically Controlled Loads in Commercial Buildings

Annual Meeting of the IEEE Industry Applications Society, 2022
Models for thermostatically controlled loads in commercial buildings often include many parameters and variables compared to residential buildings. As such, it is beneficial to use reduced-order models to represent these resources.

The flexibility of Thermostatically Controlled Loads for regulation

2016 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC), 2016
Residential Thermostatically Controlled Load (TCL) is an effective resource to participate in power grid active power balancing. However, its distributive characteristic makes control center difficult to directly get its aggregated power. This paper proposed a convenient method to estimate the aggregated power of residential TCL load, which can easily ...
