1、山东建筑大学毕业设计 外文文献及译文 - 1 - 外文文献： The Intelligent Building One of the benefits of the rapid evolution of information technology has been the development of systems that can measure, evaluate, and respond to change。 An enhanced ability to control change has sparked developments in the way we design our
2、physical environment, in particular, the buildings in which we work。 As a result, we are witnessing significant growth in the area of Intelligent Buildings-buildings that incorporate information technology and communication systems, making them more comfortable, secure, productive, and cost-effectiv
3、e What is an Intelligent Building? An Intelligent Building is one equipped with the telecommunications infrastructure that enables it to continuously respond and adapt to changing conditions, allowing for a more efficient use of resources and increasing the comfort and security of its occupants。 An
4、Intelligent Building provides these benefits through automated control systems such as: heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC)； fire safety； security； and energy/lighting management。 For example, in the case of a fire, the fire alarm communicates with the security system to unlock the doo
5、rs。 The security system communicates with the HVAC system to regulate the flow of air to prevent the fire from spreading。 What benefits do Intelligent Buildings offer their owners and occupants? The introduction in the workplace of computers printers photocopiers, and fax machines has increased indo
6、or pollution。 Electrical and telecommunications facilities in office buildings are under pressure to satisfy the demands created by the rapid growth of computer and networking technologies。 These factors have a definite impact on productivity. New technology can be used to create Intelligent Buildin
7、gs that address these problems by providing a healthier, more productive, and less energy-intensive work environment。 As these are critical factors for business 山东建筑大学毕业设计 外文文献及译文 - 2 - success, owners of Intelligent Buildings have a clear advantage in attracting and retaining 21st-century tenants。
8、How do Intelligent Buildings lead to cost savings? The Intelligent Building concept recognizes that the true cost of a building is not simply its cost of construction； it must contain the costs of operate and maintenance over the structures life span。 By optimizating automated control, communication
9、, and management systems, Intelligent Buildings cost has reduced in all of these areas。 They also guard against the increasing of repairing costs, productivity loss, revenue loss, and the loss of customers。 Can an Intelligent Building infrastructure be installed in existing buildings? Yes。 The key c
10、ompetency of transformating conventional buildings into intelligent ones is installing single structured cabling network。 Standard buildings featured in using different kinds of designs and administration methods from system to system。 The additional facility of construction structured turns a conve
11、ntional building into an intelligent one which can provide with increased efficiency and guarding it against system breakdowns。 Why do Intelligent Buildings increasingly become a part of business imperative? Because they contribute to the business requirements as follows: To communicate data quickly
12、 and reliably To exercise greater control over the work environment To improve productivity and cost-effectiveness In response to these needs, it offers its Business Solution of intelligent wiring。 Intelligent buildings design and construction management systems The field of Intelligent Buildings, I
13、ntelligent Homes, Building Management Systems (BMS) encompass an enormous variety of technologies, across commercial, industrial, institutional and 山东建筑大学毕业设计 外文文献及译文 - 3 - domestic buildings which including energy management systems and building controls。 The function of Building Management Systems

16、ement Systems have roots in the industrial sector in the 1970s, from the systems and controls used to automate production processes and to optimise plant performances。 The concepts and applications were then adapted, developed and modularised during the 1980s。 Intelligent buildings - control system
17、The essence of Building Management Systems lies in the Intelligent Buildings and control technologies, which allows integration, automation, optimising services and equipment provide services and managing environment。 The essence of Intelligent Management Systems lies in Programmable Logic Controlle
18、rs (PLC) which formed the original basis of the control technologies。 Later the developments of commercial and residential applications were based on “distributed-intelligence microprocessors”. Taking advantage of these technologies allows to use various Internet construction and services, which often significantly reduces cost and saves energy。 Heating - time-based control Temperature control: when external temperature reaches a set level (0C)， run heating system pumps to protect the system from freezing or frost.
