More Information
Summary:The systems and methods of this disclosure control the flow rate of conditioned fluid at thermal distribution devices and at a conditioned fluid source that supplies conditioned fluid to the thermal distribution devices. The systems include multiple thermal distribution devices disposed throughout multiple rooms of a building, a fluid flow control device in fluid communication with each of the thermal distribution devices, multiple sensors disposed on each of the thermal distribution devices, a room temperature sensor disposed in each of the rooms, a first controller coupled to each of the fluid flow control devices, and a second controller coupled to a source of conditioned fluid. The first controllers control respective fluid flow control devices based on the measurement data obtained from the sensors and the room temperature sensors and a second controller controls the conditioned fluid source based on the demand for conditioned fluid by the thermal distribution devices.
