The main purpose of this paper is to develop fault detection modules for BEMS (Building Energy Management Systems), a software to aid building…
This paper discusses a detailed building energy simulation model that has been made available to thebuilding designer through a graphic user interface. The…
There are two almost orthogonal aspects that need to be considered when looking at the use of design tools by the profession, the integration of…
Data for convective heat transfer coefficients (CHTC's) published in the literature tend to be for anisolated heated vertical plate, with few data based on…
The current models of boilers and furnaces which are used in HVAC system simulation programs are primarily concerned with calculating the…
The Neutral Model Format for building simulation was proposed in 1989 as a means for documentation and exchange of models. It has attracted much…
Analytical solutions to the heat flow equation in a dynamic insulation is presented. A numerical least:squares method, called the gradient method, to…
Software packages form an integral part of the practices of most building design professionals today. Studies in the UK show that CAD is used in…
This paper describes research related to the New Zealand Building Code. It reports a survey ofinternational approaches to building energy performance…
The impact of central forced-air heating and cooling system modifications on the levels of selected pollutants in single-family houses was…
In computer simulation, accurate modelling of air conditioning equipment is important in the studies of dynamic plant performance, for instance in…
Comprehensive studies of the energy saving potential for buildings will often not be performed in a design phase - especially not for renovation projects.…
Conventional control schernes for air condítioning systems are in lack of the capabilities to adapt to a changing enviroranent and to optimize…
TRNSYS is a modular transient system simulation program that has been commercially available since 1975. The primary use of TRNSYS is to model…
An Anglo-French collaborative project is presently under way with the dual purpose : a) to collect high quality data sets for the empirical…
The Research and Development Division at Gaz de France assesses; and improves building heating and cooling equipment by both experimental and…
New software (BASECALCTM) has been created for modelling heat losses from residential basements and slabs-on-grade. A menu driven interface allows the user…
InteSys Limited has developed a new dynamic simulation model for buildings, which emerges by itself as it receives the data or signals from the…
Two main modelisation techniques are the analytic and systemic methods. After a presentation of each method applied to building simulation, this paper…
