Calibration involves iterative improvements to bring model outputs in line with that of the measured date of an existing building. These models provide a means of understanding building operation as well as optimizing performance. Therefore, the study focuses to provide lessons learned and recommends best practices for effective calibration and optimization of water- cooled chiller for an office building located in Bangalore, India. The chiller size is of capacity 425TR with annual cooling energy consumption of 260 MWh. After carrying out 30 iterations in the model the resulted CVRMSE is 5% and NMBE of 1% are achieved. This calibrated model is further taken to find the optimized chiller outlet water temperature on the evaporator side. It is found that by an increase in outlet water temperature to 9°C, the energy savings were found to be 1.2% annually.","PeriodicalId":434652,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124810107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we present a novel 4IR inspired framework for the real-time sensor selection for subsurface pressure and temperature monitoring, as well as reservoir evaluation. The framework encompasses a deep learning technique for uncertain estimation of sensor data, which is then integrated into an integer programming framework for the optimal selection of sensors to monitor the reservoir formation. The results are promising, showing that a relatively small numbers of sensors can be utilized to properly monitor the fractured reservoir structure.","PeriodicalId":434652,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130579662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By 2045 EV penetration will on average grow by 34 times (GWh) from today in Southern California Edison’s (SCE) territory [2]. To develop a data-driven utility EV grid integration strategy, EV customer charging behaviors need to be well understood. The ability to disaggregate EV loads, or segregate EV loads from household loads, is very useful in supporting enterprise forecasting and distribution planning, developing distribution standards, and capital request justification for a utility general rate case. EV telemetry and individual metered EV loads are not always available to the utility. In this paper, we present a lightweight efficient EV disaggregation methodology, with several advantages using real power measurements from advanced meter infrastructure (AMI) meters and demonstrated the algorithm and utility applications at scale (approximately 62,000 customers), and showed how the results can support utilities’ strategic need to develop a reliable, affordable, and safe EV integration strategy.","PeriodicalId":434652,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability (SusTech)","volume":"27 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128966584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
