Advanced building services simulation software providing design solutions in Dublin and Boston | 2001 | English
The paper uses the latest state of the art dynamic simulation software to analyse and present design information for building design engineers on current design questions in both Dublin and Boston.
A study on the accuracy of daylighting simulation pf heavily obstructed buildings in Hong Kong | 2001 | English
Hong Kong is the most densely populated city in the world. The Building Regulations of Hong Kong pre- scribe a minimum distance between buildings for light- ing and ventilation.
Application of quasi-steady-state thermodynamic model of conventional heating system with Takahashi control method | 2001 | English
An indirect control technique using a single-zone space model is presented.
This paper presents the requirements of the building representation to supports the holistic performance assessment of building performance into a single application.
A simulation analysis of the opening of entrance doors and winter airflow into the entrance hall of a high-rise office building | 2001 | English
This study aims to develop a simplified estimation method of the thermal design load and space radiant environment in order to achieve adequate and economical HVAC equipment sizing and confirmation of thermal comfort.
Little work has been done on the closed loop response of refrigeration plant using the new chlorine-free refrigerants.
New calculation procedures for calculating conduction heat transfer for foundations are described. These procedures are first validated and then implemented within EnergyPlus source code (beta version 5.0).
A proposal for an estimation method of thermal load and space radiant environment for HVAC system design development by applying DOE technique | 2001 | English
This study aims to develop a simplified estimation method of the thermal design load and space radiant environment in order to achieve adequate and economical HVAC equipment sizing and confirmation of thermal comfort.
An object oriented multizone thermal building model based on the simulation environment smile | 2001 | English
A daylight simulation tool including transmitted direct and diffuse light: application to the evaluation of daylighting inside glazed intermediate spaces | 2001 | English
The paper describes new improvements in SOLENE, a set of numerical models for the simulation of natural light in both the urban morphologies and the indoor architectural spaces which is developed in our laboratory.
Classical building simulators are typically based on global systems of differential equations that model the physical reality and are numerically solved at runtime. In this paper we propose a new approach.
