Systems and methods for intelligent pic valves with agent interaction

A flow control system configured to control fluid flow in an HVAC system, the flow control system comprising:

• a first flow control device comprising:
• a first valve;
• one or more sensors;
• a first actuator configured to open and close the first valve;
• a second flow control device comprising:
• a second valve;
• one or more sensors;
• a second actuator configured to open and close the second valve;
• an optimization agent configured to receive data from the one or more sensors of the first flow control device and the second flow control device;
• wherein the optimization agent is further configured to determine an optimal position of the first valve using the data from both the first flow control device and the second flow control device.

A flow control system configured to control fluid flow in an HVAC system, the flow control system comprising:

• a plurality of flow control devices, each of the plurality of flow control devices comprising:
• a valve;
• one or more sensors;
• an actuator configured to open and close the valve;
• a learning agent configured to receive and use data from the one or more sensors to generate a model for each flow control device using a system identification process;
• wherein the learning agent operates the actuator of each flow control device according to the generated model.
