Energy consumption prediction analysis has important significance in energy management
operation strategy optimization
control optimization
etc. For variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems
the pure support vector regression (SVR) prediction model has insufficient stability and prediction accuracy. By introducing the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm
this study optimizes the selection of punish and nuclear parameters for a pure SVR prediction model and then compares the prediction results of the PSO-SVR model
pure SVR model
and theoretical formula. The results show that the overall prediction errors for SVR
PSO-SVR and theoretical formula are 1.43%
1.08% and 1.57%
and the root mean square error are 105.36 W
88.79 W and 91.37 W respectively. By solving for the best C and γ equal to 10
000 and 4.275
the PSO can significantly improve the performance and stability of the pure SVR prediction model. In addition
it demonstrated better results than those of the formula calculation method with less variables to be measured. It is reasonable to state that the PSO-SVR model is a convenient and economic means to solve such problems.
