4.1. Test Cases
- In Figure 6, shown by the yellow background, when the outdoor PM 2.5 concentration is distributed between unhealthy and very unhealthy (Case 1), the indoor PM 2.5 concentration exceeds the upper limit without indoor emission of PM 2.5 such as eating meals/snacks and working. On the contrary, in Case 2 (outdoor PM 2.5 concentration: Good-Moderate), the indoor PM 2.5 concentration does not exceed the upper limit under the same indoor PM 2.5 emission condition, as shown in Figure 7 by the yellow background. These indoor and outdoor conditions demonstrate the efficiency of the AI2C2 algorithm.
- As shown in Figure 6, the indoor PM 2.5 concentration changes significantly according to the occupant activity. For example, when the occupant activity is cooking (oven) with a high outdoor PM 2.5 concentration (Case 1), the indoor PM 2.5 concentration increases to 31.2 µg/m3, which is slightly higher than the upper limit. On the contrary, when the occupant activity is cooking (oven) with low outdoor PM 2.5 concentration (Case 2), the concentration of indoor PM 2.5 increases to 9.9 µg/m3, which is lower than the upper limit. However, when the occupant emits a large amount of particulate matter, such as by cooking (frying), the indoor PM 2.5 concentration exceeds the upper limit regardless of the outdoor PM 2.5 concentration (Case 1: 412.8 µg/m3 (Figure 6), Case 2: 392.3 µg/m3 (Figure 7). In this situation, it is demonstrated that AI2C2 can operate indoor environmental systems effectively to remove indoor PM 2.5 with consideration of occupant activities.
- As shown in Figure 8, when all indoor climate control systems are not operated, the indoor CO2 concentration changes of Case 1 and Case 2 are the same. This is because the outdoor CO2 concentration and CO2 emission rate according to occupant activity are the same in both cases. As displayed in Figure 8, the indoor CO2 concentration varies with the occupant activity. When the occupant activity is slee**, the indoor CO2 concentration decreases to 782.7 ppm, which satisfies the CO2 guideline. This is because the activity level is relatively low when the occupants are asleep; thus, the emission rate of CO2 is also low. However, as depicted in Figure 8, all occupant activities after waking up have higher levels than for slee**; thus, the indoor CO2 concentration increases and exceeds 1000 ppm. In particular, the indoor CO2 concentration reaches a maximum of 1487.6 ppm, significantly exceeding the upper limit during exercise. In this situation, it is demonstrated that AI2C2 can operate the ventilation system effectively to decrease the indoor PM 2.5 concentration while considering occupant activities.
