ISHS Acta Horticulturae 406: II IFAC/ISHS Workshop :Mathematical & Control Applications in Agriculture & Horticulture

DEVELOPMENT OF A FUZZY CONTROL SYSTEM FOR GREENHOUSES

Authors:   H. Ehrlich, M. Kühne, J. Jäkel
Keywords:   Greenhouse modelling, greenhouse climate control, temperature setpoint determination
Abstract:
The subject of the paper is temperature control in greenhouses. Two approaches for modification of given setpoints and for determination of setpoints (for heating system and ventilation) are introduced. The objective is on one hand to keep a given mean temperature and on the other hand to find setpoints that in a sensible way take into consideration outside weather conditions in order to save energy respectively to enable the growers to control the distribution of the use of energy over time. The effects of these techniques applied to a greenhouse model with recorded weather data are shown in simulations.
