There  are  two  kind  of  supply  fan  rotation  speed control methods, one is the static pressure control method, the other is the float pressure control method. Simulation shows that they have different working point along the whole year.

Most of the Brazilian population is concentrated in the shore region in cities like Rio de Janeiro.
Alberto Hernandez Neto, Arlindo Tribess, Fúlvio Vittorino, Maria Akutsu
An evaluation method for life cycle energy (LCE) and CO2 (LCCO2) of houses by the  system dynamics (SD), a method for understanding how all the objects in a system interact with one another, was presented.
Hiroshi Matsumoto
Based  on  the  thermal  and  airflow  network  model with simple but perfect generic formulations and stable solving methods, a computer program NETS for the practical simulation of coupled building heat, gas and air transfer system has been deve
Hiroyasu Okuyama
Up to now, within the framework of validation of the global building energy simulation software programme CLIM2000, we have not focused on analytical verification.
Gilles Guyon, Stéphane Moinard, Nacim Ramdani
This  paper  examines  the  process  by  which  the kitchen exhaust from a dwelling unit diffuses throughout the other dwelling units in a seven-story housing facility.
Shinnichiro Nagano
In  this  paper   a   new  method  called  TSM  was presented to analyze wind effect on high-density building areas. With TSM, a software named WEATHER is developed based on STACH-3.
Bin Zhao, Ying Li, Xianting Li and Qisen Yan
This paper proposes useful techniques of regression analysis to estimate regional water temperatures for the optimum design of the hot water supply system.
Minako Nabeshima and Kazuo Emura
This paper presents a mathematical model yielding a simplified representation of the thermal behaviors of ivy-covered walls. The model is integrated with a CFD program to implement simulation.
Liao Zaiyi, Niu J.L
A model for the design of urban grids and fabric with solar rights consideration taken into account is presented.
Isaac G. Capeluto, E. Shaviv
The optimal supervisory control strategy for a central chilled water facility has been determined. A quadratic linear regression relation for the total system power in terms of the controlled and uncontrolled variables was  developed  using simula
B.C. Ahn, J.W. Mitchell
Simulation  of  cleaning  is  a  new  area  in  building simulations. To make rational cleaning is it important to know how difficult it is to clean rooms. I define a Cleaning Index (CI) as the cleaning area divided by the floor area.
Anker Nielsen
The  authors  propose  a  predicting  methodology combined with simultaneous solution for Building- Urban-Soil system to analyze the heat island phenomenon quantitatively in this paper. Using this model, numerical simulation is performed in order

Project REED (Residential Energy Efficiency Design) is a Web-based building performance simulation tool developed under contract to one of the nations largest utilities, to help their 4.5 million ratepayers make en- ergy efficient design decisions
Murray Milne, Carlos Francisco Gomez, Don Leeper, Jennifer Zurick, Ameet Nindra, Jiang Shen, Yoshi Kobayashi
In order to make proper radiative meshes with considering thermal distribution on solid surfaces, we inves- tigated the adaptive mesh generation method and per- formed parametric survey for a threshold which con- trols subdivision of mesh.
Imano Masashi, Kamata Motoyasu, Kurabuchi Takashi, Hayama Hirofumi, Kishita Manabu
An experimental apparatus (in-situ thermal test unit) and an analysis method have been developed for evaluating the thermal resistance of the building envelope on site.
Seung-Eon Lee, Jae-Sik Kang, Jae-Min Kim
Simulation  of  visual  context  in  architecture,  the environment that surrounds both building and observer, is an essential but problematic feature of realistic imagery.
A. J. Summerfield & S. Hayman
An  integrated  simulation  system  for  the  building services design and facilities management purposes is being developed by Olof Granlund Oy.
Antti Karola, Tuomas Laine, Kenneth Lassila, Hannu Lahtela, and Markku Jokela
A major goal in computer-aided design research has been the development of integrated design for convenient generation and evaluation of evolving designs.
