Building management system extension

Abstract

The building management HVAC(heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system for Phase II of IIIT-Delhi campus is designed to take care (and advantage) of diversity of use. Instead of using large AHUs(Air Handling Units), we will have individual units in faculty rooms, labs, and other spaces. This would allow us to condition air of the spaces that are occupied and the system would be able to maintain desired temperature more closely. The disadvantage of this approach is higher capital cost and a larger I/O points for BMS but the running cost will be saved. In this project we are developing a scheduler hosted on a web server to control the ACs valves connected through Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
