eng Multi Agent Distributed Control System for Coordination of Heating Plants This article presents an approach to multi agent distributed control and heating system coordination. This heating system is composed of heterogeneous heating plant subsystems. The demand on the whole system is to provide the total heat output. The multiagent distributed control system is designed to optimize the plant configuration and operative strategies and to minimize chosen operating costs. The automated control using multi agent approach increases the speed of global optimization and system reconfiguration time. It helps to make the system less dependent on human factor and more resilient for human errors. The group of heating plants is fully automated and coordinated on the basis of total heat output requirement and local plant criteria. In advance, the presented solution provides the intelligent reconfiguration of the heating system in the case of exclusion, inclusion or failure of a subsystem.
