Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method that includes determining, by a controller of a refrigeration system, an alarm zone and a non-alarm zone. The alarm zone corresponds to possible states of the refrigeration system that trigger a temperature alarm of the refrigeration system, and the non-alarm zone corresponds to possible states of the refrigeration system that do not trigger the temperature alarm. The method also includes predicting a future state of the refrigeration system. The method also includes determining whether the future state of the refrigeration system is within the alarm zone or the non-alarm zone. The method also includes generating an output data comprising a prediction of when the temperature alarm will be triggered. The method also includes triggering one or more compressors connected to the refrigeration system to improve a cooling effect.
