不断上涨的能源成本和可持续性治理正在推动新技术的发展，以提高建筑物的性能。所有商业建筑的流体输送过程包括作为加热、冷却、水压提升、废水和制冷系统一部分的泵。这些泵送系统消耗商业建筑35%以上的能源。参与暖通空调系统设计、组装和调试的每个人都面临着为最终客户提供最佳价值的挑战。 为了帮助行业应对这一挑战，水力研究所正在支持使用智能泵送解决方案，以提高能源性能和可靠性，同时降低现有商业建筑的运营成本。智能泵包括通信、性能控制和管理。本文将介绍智能泵送技术的最新发展趋势。本论文涉及的主题包括:集成控制泵和播放调试泵基于可调二次控制曲线的速度调制，以获得更好的部分- 负载效率最佳效率分级根据运行效率而不是电机转速改变单个泵。在不使用外部传感器的情况下，全泵阵列的能效比传统的并联泵装置提高了30%。使用控制进行流量监控显示使用电子换向电机消除了滑差损失-电机以规定的速度运行，并增加了2%-7%的泵送效率连接到BMS系统- Fi功能可轻松连接到桌面或移动设备，从而提供服务，帮助运营商管理泵，并保持性能效率。车载和基于云的趋势和高级控制功能提高泵系统能源性能的主要因素包括对系统和操作要求的全面了解，根据系统要求安装合适尺寸的泵，维护和维修建筑泵送系统部件的适当控制方法，并利用最佳建筑行业实践。 本文将详细研究上述每一项功能，并强调商业建筑内任何泵系统进行改进和降低能耗的潜在机会。引文:2018年冬季会议，伊利诺伊州芝加哥，会议论文

Rising energy costs and sustainability governance are driving the development of new technologies to improve the performance of buildings. All commercial buildings fluid transfer processes include pumps as part of heating, cooling, water pressure boosting, wastewater and refrigeration systems. These pumpbased systems consume more than 35 percent of a commercial building's energy. Everyone involved in the design, assembly and commissioning of an HVAC system faces a challenge to provide the best value for the end customer. To help the industry meet this challenge the Hydraulic Institute is supporting the utilization of intelligent pumping solutions to improve energy performance and reliability while lowering operational costs for existing commercial buildings. Intelligent pumping includes communications, performance control and management.This paper will convey most up to date trends in intelligent pumping technologies. Topics covered in the paper include:Integrated controlsPlug and play commissioningPump speed modulation based on an adjustable quadratic control curve for better part-load efficiencyBest efficiency staging changes individual pumps on the basis of operating efficiency rather than motor speed. Energy efficiency of the full pump array is improved by up to 30% over traditional parallel pumping installations, without the use of external sensors.Flow monitoring using controlsHow the use of Electronically Commutated motors eliminates slip loss - motors perform at stated speed and add an additional 2% – 7% pumping efficiencyConnectivity to BMS systemsWi-Fi capability for easy connectivity to desktop or mobile devices and hence services to help operators manage their pumps, and maintain performance efficiency.On-board and cloud-based trending and advanced control functionsThe primary factors in improving the energy performance of a pump system include a thorough knowledge of the system and operational requirements, installing the right-sized pump for the system requirements, proper control methods for service and utilizing the best building industry practices for maintaining and repairing the components of a building pumping system. The paper will examine in details each of the above listed features and functions and highlight latent opportunities to make improvements and reduce energy consumption to any pump system within a commercial building.
