Greenhouse Modelling and Control

• Adaptive control: add adaptive control to a RHOC controlled system (Van Ooteghem)
• Simplified greenhouse model: optimize for minimum energy use (PRI data) (Van Ooteghem)
 Validation crop model (photosynthesis and evapotranspiration) with data Ecofys (Van Ooteghem)
 Many choices for use of utilities (heating/heat pump/WKK/daily buffer/aquifer) make the greenhouse more difficult to control. How should we choose the utility, which choice is optimal (Ecofys) (Van Ooteghem)
 Model ventilation flow and screen flow (PRI/JB) (Van Ooteghem)
• Stretching the greenhouse bounds: find methods to quantify risks for crop growth for use in optimal control (Van Ooteghem)
• The greenhouse monitor: from control with 1000 settings to a monitor with 10 settings (methodical: go to horticulturists an investigate what they want to see, and how open they are to such a system) (Van Ooteghem)
