Abstract

When particle swarm optimization algorithm is used in the building energy-saving optimization,it is easy to converge untimely in the local optima due to the multi-peak characteristic of the building energy model. The combination of the distributed mutation operator and particle swarm algorithm can provide a solution to this pro-blem. In this paper,4 existing particle swarm mutation algorithms were studied. Aiming at the problem of low effects of optimization,the specific operations of the mutations were improved,and the effectiveness of 4 improved algo-rithms was verified by test functions. Then,they were applied to a building energy-saving optimization case. Experi-mental results show that,as compared with the existing particle swarm mutation algorithms,the improved algorithm can decrease the average value of object function by 1. 3% at least and increase the convergence rate by over 3 times,which means that the optimization effect is obviously improved. Thus,it is concluded that the improved al-gorithms is effective and applicable in general building energy-saving optimization.
