Temperature control method and apparatus
First Claim
1. A temperature control method comprising:
- identifying set temperature history information of an air handling device, the set temperature history information including at least one first set temperature, at least one first weather information, and at least one first range information for adjusting a set temperature, each of the at least one first set temperature corresponding to each of the at least one first weather information;
identifying second weather information in a current time;
determining a second set temperature, of the air handling device, corresponding to the second weather information from the at least one first set temperature;
adjusting the second set temperature based on second range information corresponding to the second set temperature from the at least one first range information; and
controlling the air handling device based on the adjusted second set temperature,wherein the adjusting of the second set temperature comprises;
adjusting, in case that an indoor temperature is greater than an average value of the second set temperature per a time, the second set temperature by adding the second range information to the average value, andadjusting, in case that the indoor temperature is less than the average value, the second set temperature by subtracting the second range information from the average value, andwherein a first set temperature is determined based on temperatures set by a user for the same weather information among the at least one first weather information.

Abstract
A method and an apparatus for controlling a temperature based on scheduling of an indoor temperature are provided. The apparatus obtains set temperature history information of an air handling unit from previously stored information. The set temperature history information is mapped to weather factor history information about at least one weather factor. The apparatus also obtains weather factor information regarding a scheduling target time. Based on the obtained set temperature history information and the obtained weather factor information, the apparatus schedules a set temperature of the air handling unit with regard to the scheduling target time. The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT) and may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, healthcare, digital education, smart retail, and security services.

10. A temperature control apparatus comprising:
-
a transceiver; and at least one processor configured to; identify set temperature history information of an air handling device, the set temperature history information including at least one first set temperature, at least one first weather information, and at least one first range information for adjusting a set temperature, each of the at least one first set temperature corresponding to each of the at least one first weather information, identify second weather information in a current time, determine a second set temperature, of the air handling device, corresponding to the second weather information from the at least one first set temperature, adjust the second set temperature based on second range information corresponding to the second set temperature from the at least one first range information, control the air handling device based on the adjusted second set temperature, adjust, in case that an indoor temperature is greater than an average value of the second set temperature per a time, the second set temperature by adding the second range information to the average value, and adjust, in case that the indoor temperature is less than the average value, the second set temperature by subtracting the second range information from the average value, wherein a first set temperature is determined based on temperatures set by a user for the same weather information among the at least one first weather information. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
