Information

Hypothesis and equations

This model outputs whether the building is currently occupied, and how long it will take until the next time when the building will be occupied or non-occupied. The latter may be used, for example, to start a ventilation system half an hour before occupancy starts in order to ventilate the room.

The occupancy is defined by a time schedule of the form

  occupancy = 3600*{7, 12, 14, 19}

This indicates that the occupancy is from 7:00 until 12:00 and from 14:00 to 19:00. This will be repeated periodically. The parameters startTime and endTime define the periodicity.
