The purpose of this study is to develop an load prediction model using HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air conditioning and Cooling) system to prevent waste of energy due to fault and inefficient operation of the system. As the interest in energy saving of buildings is increasing worldwide, there is a growing need for research on facility energy efficiency measures. Load prediction is needed to prevent waste of energy. However, current methods for predicting loads in existing buildings are complex and difficult to predict in real time. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop a load prediction model through measurement and mathematical modeling of the input values for the load prediction using sensors in the HVAC system. The prototype is developed using the developed load prediction model and the actual building is tested.
