This paper presents a new technique for the thermal systems modelling. This method, based on the structural modularity of a thermal system such as a building belongs to the modal methods family.
The approach adopted by the Gaz de France Research Center for the modelling-simulation of building performance separates as far as possible modelling from simulation. Emphasis is placed on modelling and its validation.
A design tool for interior daylighting description of luminous enviroment with image synthesis | 1991 | English
As part of visualization of interior luminous environment in daylighting a programme (NATUREL) has been developed at CSTB. It allows to take into account complex shapes of building, furniture and apertures.
A numerical study of turbulent air flow in ventilated multi-room configurations, where both of buoyancy- and radiation-effects are of importance, is described in this paper.
