Bureaucratic Affairs Building ExerciseThe interactive exercise we did is built around the imaginary Bureaucratic Affairs Building on the Center of the State University campus (COStU) in Golden Girl Missouri.
The basic files you need if you want to revisit the exercise in depth and try your hand directly at adding the logic enhancements we discussed can be found on the Bureaucratic Affairs Building Heating Hot Water System Logic Modification Exercise page of the web site along with a general over-view of the exercise. There is also a blog post that will connect you with additional control system design resources and help you get up to speed using SketchUp via an "Easter egg hunt" exercise you can do in the Bureaucratic Affairs Building model. If you want a clean version of the logic diagram tool, you will find the current version of it on the Logic Diagram Tool page of the website along with the PowerPoint file that defines the symbols and illustrates how they are to be applied. The zip file below contains the answer to the exercise since I have yet to publish them including: |

SketchUp ModelsDepending on where the discussions take us in the interactive exercises, there are a number of different SketchUp models that I might use to illustrate something. You would not necessarily need to have them to participate in the discussion, but I am making them available in case you want to further explore them after class. There is information on the SketchUp page of this website about how to get a copy of the free version of SketchUp.
All of the models have been back-saved to SketchUp version 8 in case you already have an older version of SketchUp on your computer. If you have a newer version, the files will also open in any version of SketchUp from version 8 forward.
Tools and ResourcesOne of the exercises we will do will involve thinking through the development of basic control logic for a heat exchanger and how the dynamics of the system and the nature of the loads impact your thinking as you develop the logic. This zip file contains some of the information I will use to support the discussion. There is a Read Me file that describes the other files in the folder

These are the follow-up materials from the Monday class. There is a READ ME file included to describe the contents.

These are the follow up files from the Tuesday class. Each folder includes a READ Me file that describes what the contents are about, other than the controller pictures. Most of them have a name or are in a folder that gives a sense of what they are or they are self evident.

These are the follow-up materials for Wednesday and also some of the files we ended up using on Thursday when we slipped the schedule slightly

This is the word document we worked with together to think through the sequence for the Davis Hall cooling tower control logic.

The file below contains the models we will use in class. The Davis Hall model will be used for the discussion about lags.
The other models will be used for the system diagram exercise; primarily, the chilled water plant model. But depending on how the interactions go, we may use the Ball Room AHU and Ball Room model also.

This file contains a number of items I mentioned that I would provide as follow-up materials during lecture on Wednesday. Note that there is a "Read Me" file that describes what the files are.
