Monitoring apparatus and monitoring method
First Claim
1. A monitoring apparatus for monitoring a system state of a room-temperature-fluctuation air conditioning system that performs air conditioning by controlling a heating medium flow rate and a heating medium temperature and that changes a room temperature set value in accordance with a predetermined schedule or a room-temperature-fluctuation heating medium transport system that controls a heating medium flow rate and a heating medium temperature and that changes a room temperature set value in accordance with a predetermined schedule, the monitoring apparatus comprising:
- processing circuitry configured toobtain, from a target system to be monitored, a room temperature and a heating medium flow rate or an operation amount for controlling the heating medium flow rate;
control a display to display a graph, the graph including at least a time axis and a temperature axis, the graph including the room temperature obtained from the target system to be monitored, the room temperature changing in the temperature axis along the time axis reflecting a temporal change of the room temperature;
calculate a length of a bar to be overlapped on the graph, the bar indicating a controllable range of the heating medium flow rate or a controllable range of the operation amount; and
control the display to overlap the bar on the graph, the bar being provided to at least a time point in the time axis, the bar extending in the temperature axis, a first location of one edge of the bar in the temperature axis corresponding to a first temperature when the heating medium flow rate or the operation amount is 0% of the controllable range, a second location of another edge of the bar in the temperature axis corresponding to a second temperature when the heating medium flow rate or the operation amount is 100% of the controllable range.

Abstract
A monitoring apparatus includes an information obtaining unit that obtains, from a target VAV air conditioning system to be monitored, a room temperature and a variable air volume; a room temperature display processing unit that displays, in a form of a graph, the room temperature obtained from the target VAV air conditioning system to be monitored; a controllable range calculating unit that calculates a length of a bar of a bar graph indicating a controllable range on the basis of the variable air volume; and a controllable range display processing unit that displays the bar graph including the bar having the length calculated by the controllable range calculating unit such that the bar graph is overlapped with the room temperature.
