AUTONOMOUS HVAC SYSTEM REALTIME PERFORMANCE MONITORING, MAINTENANCE AND CARBON FOOTPRINT MONITORING CLOUD PLATFORM

A control apparatus for controlling at least one heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a microvalve, at least one intelligent controller, a local intelligent gateway in communication with the intelligent controller, a cloud platform in communication with the local intelligent gateway, and a local device configured to communicate through the cloud platform to the intelligent controller. The intelligent controller is configured to control one or more HVAC components, measure air conditioning system parameters including compressor discharge and suction pressure and compressor temperature of a compressor within the HVAC system, and air out, evaporator out, and condenser out temperatures, and superheat and subcooling, and input the measured air conditioning system parameters to the cloud platform to autonomously monitor air conditioning system health and real-time refrigerant charge levels.
