An Iterative Methodology for Model Complexity Reduction in Residential Building Simulation

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
The present paper introduces an iterative methodology to progressively reduce building simulation model complexity with the aim of identifying potential trade-offs between computational requirements (i.e., model complexity) and energy estimation accuracy.

Guidelines to Calibrate a Multi-Residential Building Simulation Model Addressing Overheating Evaluation and Residents’ Influence

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
Can building performance simulation reproduce measured summertime indoor conditions of a multi-residential building in good conformity? This question is answered by calibrating simulated to monitored room temperatures of several rooms of a multi ...

Thermochromic Paints on External Surfaces: Impact Assessment for a Residential Building through Thermal and Energy Simulation

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
This work addresses the effect of using thermochromic paints in residential buildings. Two different thermochromic paint types were considered: One that changes properties through a step transition at a certain temperature, and another that changes ...

A ducted wind turbine simulation model for building simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Power production is shifting away from centralized generation plants to production of heat and power at the point of demand. A technology that may play a part in this shift is the ducted wind turbine (DWT).

Building Performance Simulation

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractSimulation is a proven technique that uses computational, mathematical, and machine learning models to represent the physical characteristics, expected or actual operation, and control strategies of a building and its energy systems. Simulations can be used in a number of tasks along the deep renovation life cycle, including: (a) integrating ...

Fifty Years of PMV Model: Reliability, Implementation and Design of Software for Its Calculation

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
In most countries, PMV is the reference index for the assessment of thermal comfort conditions in mechanically conditioned environments. It is also the basis to settle input values of the operative temperature for heating and cooling load calculations ...
