Analysis of dynamic thermal simulation for refurbishment

This paper presents a method to analyse the impact of current refurbishment settings. Performance indicators are computed through multiple physical simulations. In the study case, the thermal comfort conditions and needs are analysed to infer relationships between them and the inputs. To reach this goal, the frequency analysis method RBD-FAST is used. For each output, a total influence ranking is produced and discussed. This study aims to help building designers take advantage of current computing power. Indeed, they could visualize the impact of each input modification and choose the best solution set.
