A heating and ventilation system consists of several subsystems (e.g. floor heating, radiator etc.), which are conventionally used for controlling temperature.
The project aims at a system level control design, where the accumulated degrees of freedom provided by the subsystems are used for manipulating several process variables.
In this fashion, it is possible to control all the parameters that together constitute a good perceived indoor environment (air temperature, hot-cold surfaces, humidity, air quality, etc).
