PREDICTIVE AIR CONDITIONING CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD

A predictive air conditioning control system for a bus includes a passenger heat calculation part calculating heat acquired from passengers at each bus stop on a bus route, an outside air heat calculation part calculating heat acquired from an inflow of outside air at each bus stop, a heat acquisition constant model generation part generating a heat acquisition constant model for the bus route by reflecting the heat acquired from passengers and the heat acquired from outside air, and a predictive air conditioning controller generating a model-based predictive control value applied with the heat acquisition constant model and controlling an air conditioner of the bus depending on the model-based predictive control value.
