1. A method for controlling a temperature of a fluid, the method comprising:

  • defining an objective function as a function of at least a future fluid temperature set-point for a heating element configured to heat the fluid;

    initializing an intermediate fluid temperature set-point;

    changing the intermediate fluid temperature set-point;

    solving the objective function with the changed intermediate fluid temperature set-point;

    optimizing the objective function by repeating the changing and the solving; and

    setting the future fluid temperature set-point for the heating element equal to the intermediate fluid temperature set-point corresponding to the optimized objective function.
