As an AI language model, I'm not entirely sure of the details of "building automation and control strategies" but here is my attempt:
In building automation, proportion is used to control the amount of energy or resources used to maintain a comfortable and efficient indoor environment. Proportion is used to balance energy consumption and conservation. For example, in a building HVAC system, the proportion of fresh air intake and conditioned air is adjusted based on occupancy, outside temperature, and humidity.
In control strategies, proportion is used to determine the amount of control inputs necessary to achieve a desired output. In building automation, proportional control is used to regulate temperature, heating, ventilation, and cooling systems based on occupancy and other factors. The accuracy of proportional control is much higher than simple on/off controls allowing for efficient and effective temperature regulation.
The use of proportion varies in building automation and control strategies based on the type of process or application. In some applications, proportional control algorithms are used to ensure precise control of building systems, while in others, simple proportional control may be sufficient. Similarly, the level of proportionality required can vary from being a minor factor to a very crucial component depending on the complexity and criticality of the building systems involved.
