Abstract
The model-based control of building heating systems for energy saving encounters severe physical, mathematical and calibration difficulties in the numerous attempts that has been published until now. This topic is addressed here via a new model-free control setting, where the need of any mathematical description disappears. Several convincing computer simulations are presented. Comparisons with classic PI controllers and flatness-based predictive control are provided.

Model-free Load Control for High Penetration of Solar Photovoltaic Generation

TL;DR: In this paper, a model-free control (MFC) mechanism is proposed to enable the local distribution level circuit consumption of the photovoltaic (PV) generation by local building loads, in particular, distributed heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units.

Flatness and defect of non-linear systems: introductory theory and examples

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce flat systems, which are equivalent to linear ones via a special type of feedback called endogenous feedback, which subsumes the physical properties of a linearizing output and provides another nonlinear extension of Kalman's controllability.
