Abstract

With the help of Solar-collector and PCM (Phase Change Material) tank, an experimental system has been set up. In this system, the framework of the system is based on fuzzy algorithm. To provide a better precision of the fresh-air temperature, the system works in three different modes which need three different control rules. In this paper, these three modes are introduced firstly, and then a design of the three fuzzy controllers is described in detail. Meanwhile, the automatic transition process of the three modes in different conditions is studied. Finally, through the analysis of experimental data, it is proved that the system can provide stable fresh air temperature according to different setting temperature.
