判定値記憶領域34cには、後述する判定値設定部35dによって設定された判定値が記憶される。
群管理制御部35は、上述の群管理プログラムを実行し、所定の条件に適合する室内機群15a,15b,15cを抽出する。群管理制御部35は、主として、情報取得部35aと、能力判断部35bと、抽出部35cと、判定値設定部35dと、画面生成部35eと、画面切替部35fとを有する。
能力判断部35bは、運転データ記憶領域34aに記憶された各室内機12aa-12ac,12ba-12bc,12ca-12cc,・・・の電力消費量値を室内機12aa-12ac,12ba-12bc,12ca-12cc,・・・の空調能力を考慮して補正する。詳細には、能力判断部35bは、各室内機12aa-12ac,12ba-12bc,12ca-12cc,・・・の電力消費量値を空調能力で割った値(補正値)Enを算出する。ここで、空調能力とは、室内機12aa-12ac,12ba-12bc,12ca-12cc,・・・の馬力あるいは容量kW等である。能力判断部35bによって算出された補正値Enは上述の運転データ記憶領域34aに記憶される。
次に、本実施形態に係る群管理装置30で抽出される室内機群の所定の問題、すなわち、電力多消費、長時間運転、および快適性低下について説明する。
電力多消費とは、電力消費量値が多いことを意味する。群管理装置30では、抽出部35cによって判定値を上回る電力消費量値を有する室内機群15a,15b,15cが抽出される。また、群管理表示部32に映し出される抽出結果の画面(第1画面および第2画面)において、電力消費量値の多い順番に室内機群15a,15b,15cが表示される。なお、ここで用いる電力消費量値は、能力判断部35bによって補正された後の補正値Enである。
図5Aには、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の電力消費量値の合計(全体値)が、判定値を上回る室内機群が抽出される。ここで、判定値は、全室内機群15a,15b,15cの全体値の平均値を用いて決定される値(基準値)である。具体的に平均値とは、室内機群15aに属する室内機の電力消費量値の合計値、室内機群15bに属する室内機の電力消費量値の合計値、および室内機群15cに属する室内機の電力消費量値の合計値の平均値である。すなわち、平均値は、以下の式(I)で求められる。
次に、電力多消費の室内機群の抽出方法を図5Cを用いて説明する。ステップS101では、情報取得部35aによって運転データが取得される。その後、ステップS102で、分類情報記憶領域34bに記憶されている情報に基づいて、室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・が室内機群15a,15b,15cに分けられる。次に、ステップS103で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示するか否かが判断される。ステップS103で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示する場合ステップS104に進む。ステップS104では、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の電力消費量値の合計値(全体値)がそれぞれ算出される。さらに、所定期間における全体値の一日あたりの平均値が算出される。その後、ステップS105で、抽出部35cが抽出する際の判定値の基となる全室内機群の全体値の平均値が算出される。また、平均値に基づいて判定値(基準値)が算出される。その後、ステップS106において、基準値を上回る全体値を有する室内機群が抽出される。ステップS107では、画面生成部35eによって生成された第1画面に抽出結果が表示される。第1画面には、抽出結果とともに、平均値505aおよび基準値506bが表示される。一方、ステップS103で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示しない場合、すなわち、個別値に関する抽出結果を表示する場合は、ステップS108に進む。ステップS108では、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の一台あたりの電力消費量値(個別値)がそれぞれ算出される。さらに、所定期間における個別値の一日あたりの平均値が算出される。その後、ステップS109で、抽出部35cが抽出する際の判定値の基となる全室内機群の個別値の平均値が算出される。また、平均値に基づいて判定値(基準値)が算出される。その後、ステップS110で、基準値を上回る個別値を有する室内機が属する室内機群が抽出される。そして、ステップS111で、画面生成部35eによって生成された第2画面に抽出結果が表示される。
第1画面のグラフ503aでは、抽出部35cによって抽出された室内機群について、一日あたりの全体値(平均値)がプロットされている。グラフ503aの縦軸は、各室内機群に属する室内機の電力消費量値の合計(全体値)であり、横軸は、全体値の集計期間における一日当たりの運転時間(平均値)である。第2画面のグラフ503bでは、抽出部35cによって抽出された室内機群について、一日あたりの個別値(平均値)がプロットされている。グラフ503bの縦軸は、各室内機群に属する室内機の一台当たりの電力消費量値(個別値)であり、横軸は、個別値の集計期間における一日当たりの運転時間(平均値)である。グラフ503a,503bには、平均値505a,505bおよび基準値506a,506bを示す直線がそれぞれ表示される。第1画面および第2画面のグラフ504a,504bは、抽出された結果につき、電力消費量値が大きい順に表示される。なお、グラフ504a,504bで室内機群(本実施形態では、建物)を選択することにより、グラフ503a,503b中の対応する箇所が点滅等する。
室内機の一日あたりの積算運転時間が所定値を超える場合、長時間運転と判断される。ここで、所定値とは、ユーザによって設定される値である。本実施形態では、運転時間が20時間(所定値)を超えた日数を長時間運転の発生日数としてカウントする。抽出部35cは、判定値を上回る長時間運転の発生日数を有する室内機群を抽出する。ここで、判定値とは、全体値および個別値のそれぞれについての平均値である。全体値の平均値とは、全室内機群15a,15b,15cの長時間運転の発生日数の合計日数の平均値である。具体的には、室内機群15aに属する全室内機の長時間運転の発生日数の合計日数、室内機群15aに属する室内機の長時間運転の発生日数の合計日数、および室内機群15aに属する室内機の長時間運転の発生日数の合計日数の平均値である。また、個別値の平均値とは、全室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機の一台当たりの長時間運転の発生日数の平均値である。群管理表示部32に映し出される抽出結果の画面では、長時間運転と判断された日数の多い順番に室内機群15a,15b,15cが表示される。
次に、長時間運転の室内機群の抽出方法を図6Cを用いて説明する。ステップS201では、情報取得部35aによって運転データが取得される。その後、ステップS202で、分類情報記憶領域34bに記憶されている情報に基づいて、室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・が室内機群15a,15b,15cに分けられる。次に、ステップS203で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示するか否かが判断される。ステップS203で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示する場合、ステップS204に進む。ステップS204では、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の長時間運転の発生日数の合計(全体値)がそれぞれ算出される。その後、ステップS205で、全体値の平均値が算出される。ステップS206では、平均値を上回る値を有する室内機群が抽出される。ステップS207では、画面生成部35eによって生成された第1画面に抽出結果が表示される。一方、ステップS203で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示しない場合、すなわち、個別値に関する抽出結果を表示する場合は、ステップS208に進む。ステップS208では、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の一台あたりの長時間運転の発生日数(個別値)がそれぞれ算出される。その後、ステップS209で、個別値の平均値が算出される。ステップS210では、平均値を上回る値を有する室内機が属する室内機群が抽出される。そして、ステップS211で、画面生成部35eによって生成された第2画面に抽出結果が表示される。
第1画面のグラフ601aでは、抽出部35cによって抽出された室内機群について、長時間運転の全体値がプロットされている。グラフ601aの縦軸は、各室内機群に属する室内機の長時間運転の発生日数の合計(全体値)であり、横軸は、全体値の集計期間における一日当たりの運転時間(平均値)である。例えば、一の室内機群に属する多数の室内機のうち2台の室内機がそれぞれ一日ずつ22時間運転をしていた場合、グラフ601a中、縦軸:2日、横軸:22時間にプロットされる。第2画面のグラフ601bでは、抽出部35cによって抽出された室内機群について、個別値がプロットされている。グラフ601bの縦軸は、室内機群に属する室内機の一台当たりの長時間運転の発生日数(個別値)であり、横軸は、個別値の集計期間における一日当たりの運転時間(平均値)である。上述した例のように、一の室内機群に属する多数の室内機のうち2台の室内機がそれぞれ一日ずつ22時間運転していた場合、グラフ601b中、縦軸:1日、横軸:22時間にプロットされる。第1画面および第2画面のグラフ602a,602bは、抽出された結果につき、長時間運転の程度が高い順に表示される。なお、電力多消費の抽出結果を表示する画面(図5A,図5B)と同様、グラフ601a,601bで室内機群(本実施形態では、建物)を選択することにより、グラフ602a,602b中の対応する箇所が点滅等する。
快適性低下とは、室内機で設定した温度と吸込温度とが乖離している場合であって、吸込温度と、設定温度との乖離値が所定値以上である状態をいう。ここで、所定値とは、ユーザによって設定される値である。本実施形態では、設定温度と吸込温度との乖離が2℃(所定値)を超えた場合に快適性低下に該当するものと判断する。抽出部35cは、判定値を上回る快適性低下時間を有する室内機群15a,15b,15cを抽出する。ここで判定値とは、全体値および個別値のそれぞれについての平均値である。全体値の平均値とは、全室内機群15a,15b,15cの快適性低下時間の合計の平均値である。具体的には、室内機群15aに属する全室内機の快適性低下時間の合計、室内機群15aに属する全室内機の快適性低下時間の合計、および室内機群15aに属する全室内機の快適性低下時間の合計の平均値である。また、個別値の平均値とは、全室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機の一台当たりの快適性低下時間の平均値である。群管理表示部32に映し出される抽出結果の画面において、快適性低下時間の多い順番に室内機群15a,15b,15cが表示される。
次に、快適性低下の室内機群の抽出方法を図7Cを用いて説明する。ステップS301では、情報取得部35aによって運転データが取得される。その後、ステップS302で、分類情報記憶領域34bに記憶されている情報に基づいて、室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・が室内機群15a,15b,15cに分けられる。次に、ステップS303で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示するか否かが判断される。ステップS303で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示する場合、ステップS304に進む。ステップS304では、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の快適性低下時間の合計(全体値)がそれぞれ算出される。その後、ステップS305で、全体値の平均値が算出される。ステップS306では、平均値を上回る値を有する室内機群が抽出される。ステップS307では、画面生成部35eによって生成された第1画面に抽出結果が表示される。一方、ステップS303で、全体値に関する抽出結果を表示しない場合、すなわち、個別値に関する抽出結果を表示する場合は、ステップS308に進む。ステップS308では、各室内機群15a,15b,15cに属する室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の一台あたりの快適性低下時間(個別値)がそれぞれ算出される。その後、ステップS309で、個別値の平均値が算出される。ステップS310では、平均値を上回る値を有する室内機が属する室内機群が抽出される。そして、ステップS311で、画面生成部35eによって生成された第2画面に抽出結果が表示される。
第1画面のグラフ701aでは、抽出部35cによって抽出された室内機群について、快適性低下時間の合計(全体値)がプロットされている。グラフ701aの縦軸は、各室内機群に属する室内機の快適性低下時間の合計(全体値)であり、横軸は、全体値の集計期間における一日当たりの平均値である。第2画面のグラフ701bでは、抽出部35cによって抽出された室内機群について、一台当たりの快適性低下時間(個別値)がプロットされている。グラフ701bの縦軸は、室内機群に属する室内機の一台当たりの快適性低下時間(個別値)であり、横軸は、個別値の集計期間における一日当たりの平均値である。第1画面および第2画面のグラフ702a,702bは、抽出された結果につき、快適性低下の程度が高い順に表示される。なお、電力多消費および長時間運転の抽出結果を表示する画面(図5A,図5B,図6A,図6B)と同様、グラフ701a,701bで室内機群(本実施形態では、建物)を選択することにより、グラフ702a,702b中の対応する箇所が点滅等する。
(1)本実施形態において例示したように、一の管理領域1に複数の建物50a,50b,50cが立地するような管理領域1では、各建物内にコントローラ20a,20b,20cが設置される。各建物の管理者である担当管理者は、当該コントローラ20a,20b,20cを用いて、各建物内の室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の制御および運転状況の管理を行う。しかし、管理領域1全体の室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・の運転状況を確認し、各建物内に設置された室内機12aa-12ad,12ba-12bd,12ca-12cd,・・・を全体的に評価する場合は、全てのコントローラ20a,20b,20cを確認する必要がある。この場合、複数の建物50a,50b,50cが広範囲に渡って立地したり、建物の数が多数に及んだりすると全ての運転データを確認するだけでも煩雑である。本実施形態に係る群管理装置30は、複数の建物に設置された多数の設備機器の運転状況を効率よく評価することができる。
(1)上記実施形態に係る群管理装置30は、個別値および全体値のそれぞれに基づいて、判定値を上回る室内機群15a,15b,15cを抽出したが、全体値の結果と個別値の結果とに基づいて、優先度の高いエリア(室内機群)を抽出するように設計してもよい。例えば、図8に示すように、全体値の結果と個別値の結果とに基づき問題度を算出し、問題度の値が小さいほど優先度が高いエリア(室内機群)として判定するように設計してもよい。図8の問題度は、全体値の結果(順位)および個別値の結果(順位)にそれぞれ重み係数を設け(例えば、全体値=0.5、個別値=0.5)、全体値の順位に重み係数をかけた値と、個別値の順位に重み係数をかけた値とを足して算出される(問題度=0.5×全体値の順位+0.5×個別値の順位)。
以上、本発明の実施形態について図面に基づいて説明したが、具体的な構成はこれらの実施形態に限られるものではなく、発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で変更可能である。
