模拟器由建筑物及其暖通空调系统的实时仿真和允许仿真连接到实际控制系统的硬件接口组成。最近的研究表明，仿真可以提供一种灵活且低成本的测试真实能源管理和控制系统（EMC）的方法。作为一个研究项目的一部分，进行了一项涉及四个不同模拟器和两个不同EMC的实验，以研究仿真方法的再现性。通过比较基于不同设计和仿真程序的模拟器对EMC进行测试时获得的能耗、热舒适性和控制活动预测，给出了本实验的结果。 关键词:能源管理、测试、控制、仿真、计算。引用:研讨会，ASHRAE Trans。1994年，第100卷，第一部分

An emulator consists of a real time simulation of a building and its HVAC system and a hardware interface that allows the simulation to be connected to a real control system. Recent studies have shown that an emulation can provide a flexible and low-cost method of testing real energy management and control systems (EMCS). As part of a research project, an experiment involving four different emulators with two different EMCS was performed to study the reproducibility of the emulation method. Presents the results of this experiment in the form of a comparison of the predictions of energy consumption, thermal comfort, and control activity obtained from test of the EMCS using emulators based on different design and simulation programs.KEYWORDS: energy management, testing, controls, emulation, calculating.
