- the present invention reveals a system that makes it possible to measure the temperature of the water inlet and outlet tubes in a water cylinder, as well as the consumption measurement, making it possible to estimate the energy stored in the device and allowing to estimate the moments in those that use hot water, this is done, it also allows predicting behavior in users, detecting abnormal behavior in hot water and optimizing the energy consumption of the device.

- a mode button (1) that allows changing the operating mode
- an operation indicator (2) that reflects the current mode of operation and the status
- the system also comprises two thermocouple cables (300), where the end of a first thermocouple cable (300) is arranged at the cold water inlet of the water cylinder. hot and the end of the second thermocouple wire (300) is arranged at the hot water outlet (300) and where the free ends of both thermocouple wires (300) are directed and connected to the controller (100); and an antenna (200) coupled to the communications antenna connector (12) for the connection of the controller (100) with another server or with the cloud where the information is processed.
- the communications allow the connection of the system with another server or with the cloud where the information is processed through the data collected from the user's use and electricity rates and through an algorithm it models the behavior of the user and the temperature of the water cylinder. .
- the mode button (1) operates under the following hot water controller modes:
- Manual Mode the system heats the contents of the cylinder under the periods of time selected by the user. Useful when the user has different electricity rates depending on the time of day. The system still collects data on usage and temperatures and is sent to the server or the cloud to model the behavior of the user and the hot water cylinder.
- Automatic mode the system collects data and models the behavior of the user and the hot water cylinder and communicates with a server or the cloud that schedules the heating periods to optimize various target behaviors considering the comfort of the user.
- This objective behavior can include stability of the electrical network, efficiency, reduction of consumption, reduction of costs, among others.
- thermocouple cable is a temperature sensor composed of two different metals, joined at one end that is sensitive to changes in temperature.
- K and J type thermocouples are models composed of a positive and negative conductor that they generate a signal in MV which will translate a control equipment such as the controller (100) of the invention.
- thermocouple cables (300) The installation of the thermocouple cables (300) is carried out by placing a cable at both the cold water inlet to the hot water cylinder and the hot water outlet, this is preferably done with Kapton tape for heat resistance, the opposite end is marked cables (300) before routing them to the controller (100) to ensure that they are then installed correctly in their positions, the thermocouple cables (300) are routed to the controller box (100), that is, the end of A first thermocouple wire (300) is arranged at the cold water inlet of the hot water cylinder and the end of the second thermocouple wire (300) is arranged at the hot water outlet (300) and the free ends of both thermocouple wires (300) are directed and connected to the controller (100).

- the negative (-) poles will be labeled white, and positive (+) can be any other color.
- the system allows to measure the inlet and outlet temperature of the water from the cylinder as well as the electrical power. This avoids having to open the water circuit for installation, which can be done simply by attaching devices to the surface of the cylinder pipes.
- an appropriate algorithm can estimate the total energy stored in the cylinder.
- the measurement data obtained is sent to a central server or to the cloud where it is stored together with data on electricity rates, user history data, connection time, etc. and they are processed by means of an algorithm allowing the estimation of the stored energy, times in which the hot water is used, etc., it also predicts the behavior of the users and optimizes the energy consumption of the device.
- the system measures the temperature of the hot (THot) and cold (TCoid) pipes and the ambient temperature (TAmbient) (see figure 4).
- the system also records the heating power introduced into the hot water cylinder and whether or not the power is applied to the cylinder heating element.
- Water consumption is important when measuring pipe temperature. When no consumption occurs, both THot and TCoid will tend to TAmbient while, when consumption occurs, those measurements will deviate from it.
- the model can be applied by means of the following algorithms:
- TMax is the maximum heating temperature of the cylinder and corresponds to the temperature of the water in the cylinder when it reaches the maximum energy state (EMax). The user can provide this temperature manually or it can be easily measured as the maximum recorded temperature THot. This maximum recorded temperature THot will occur at any time of water consumption during a maximum power state of the hot water cylinder.
- EtO energy stored in the cylinder at time tO.
- Et1 energy stored in the cylinder at time t1.
- EPLoss energy losses between tO and t1.
- EPHeating energy used to heat the cylinder between tO and t1.
- PLoss (t) A more accurate model would also take the ambient temperature as an input to the PLoss model, which varies with time (PLoss (t)).
- the actual thermal losses must be proportional to the difference in temperature inside the hot water cylinder and the ambient temperature (Tavg-TAmbient). If the tank begins the period in a state of maximum energy, Tavg is known because it is equal to Tmax, the maximum heating temperature. This information can be used to train fit loss coefficients of the model.
- PLoss (t) FUNCTION (t, Tavg, TAmbient, t1, tO, EPLoss)
- the temperature of the pipeline will reach a stable state close to ambient temperature when hot water is not consumed.
- Water consumption and user behavior models can be used to estimate future energy withdrawals through hot water consumption.
- Models as simple as probabilistic prediction between withdrawals can be applied. Other options include ARMA or GARCH models or adaptive neural networks. Reinforcement learning models can also perform this task, but in general, the prediction of water consumption is closely related to the extraction durations. For example, there are routines that require the consumption of hot water that can be characterized, for this reason, the duration of the extraction and the time between extractions are closely related. In this case, predicting both parameters together can lead to better results when predicting user behavior.
