Patentradars sammanfattning

Munters Europe's invention controls a desiccant-rotor air handling unit by continuously toggling the regeneration heater on/off via a machine learning model that predicts future humidity levels from time-series humidity and temperature data, keeping humidity within a user-defined band without steady-state equilibrium operation. When the heater is on, a PID-style loop drives regeneration air temperature to a setpoint pre-determined as the point of lowest specific energy consumption for moisture removal. The optimal setpoint is established either through empirical steady-state testing across multiple constant temperature setpoints or through energy-transport simulation of the rotor. Cloud-server deployment of the ML model allows aggregation of data from multiple AHUs to improve prediction across diverse operating environments.
