A study on the applicability of the time-division hot water supply heating for ondol: the radiant floor heating system in korea | 1999 | English
Bringing simulation to application: some guidelines and practical recommendations issued from IEA-BCS annex 30 | 1999 | English
Simulation tools are not yet used as much and as well as they should all along building life cycle ( BLC ). Most important decisions are still taken almost without using these tools.
Comparison of reproducibility of a real cav system by dynamic simulation HVACSIM+ and TRNSYS | 1999 | English
It is necessary to use the dynamic simulation program to evaluate the dynamic characteristic of the HVAC system.
A practical example of the CHAT_D software application for predicting the risk of thermal disconfort in a house equipped with a cooling floor | 1999 | English
The CHAT-D software environment was developed by the Electricity Applications in the Residential and Commercial Buildings Branch, of the research and development division of EDF (Electricité de France). Our main objective is to ensure the well-bei
An evaluative method for high-perfomance window system and window side radiation environment | 1999 | English
A study was performed on a method to evaluate performance of window system necessary to satisfactorily maintain the window side radiation environment in a glass building.
A method for analysis of controllability of duct systems designed for variable ventilation flow rates | 1999 | English
This paper presents a tool, based on a method using IDA for simulation of duct systems and MATLAB as a pre- and post-processor, to study the controllability of VAV-systems.
A study of the simulation of the visibility of baseballs flying in the dome stadium | 1999 | English
An evaluation system of the visibility of a ball flying is indispensable for the best architectural design and artificial lighting design of a baseball dome stadium, as it is essential to create a suitable visual environment for both players and s
The premise underlying this work is that introducing uncertainty considerations into simulation will facilitate risk assessment and that this, in turn, will help to improve designer confidence in simulation. Sources of uncertainty abound in buildi
A two-dimensional numerical simulation of airflow around bluff bodies is presented in this study. The two turbulence models, i.e., standard k-e model and RNG k-e model, are employed to predict the flowfield and wind effects on bluff bodies.
A nodal model for displacement ventilation and chilled ceiling systems in office spaces | 1999 | English
A nodal model has been developed to represent room heat transfer in displacement ventilation and chilled ceiling systems.
An analysis of the fresh air load reduction system by using underground double floor space for air conditioning | 1999 | English
This paper presents a feasibility study of a fresh air load reduction system by using an underground double floor space. The system was introduced into a real building (Aichi Children’s Center in Japan) and was examined by the field measurement.
A comparison of methods to estimate hourly total irradiation on tilted surfaces from hourly global irradiation on a horizontal surface | 1999 | English
A combined analytic and case-based approach to thermal comfort prediction in buildings | 1999 | English
Despite the obvious importance of thermal comfort in the design of indoor environment, it has not been effectively integrated with design decision support tools.
A development of a HVAC experimental chamber and its numerical model, "Numerical HVAC experimental chamber" on a computer | 1999 | English
We first developed an actual HVAC experimental chamber including an air distribution system, an air handling unit, fan coil units, and control systems.
A comparative study of HVAC dynamic behavior between actual measurements and simulated results by HVACSIM+(J) | 1999 | English
A dynamic simulation of the HVAC system is being paid attention because of the development of the computer technology. Authors examined the reproducibility of HVACSIM+(J).
A case study of the energy performance of an office building with double-envelope and atrium | 1999 | English
This paper presents an investigation of the energy performance in an office building in Daejeon, Korea. The office building has a south-facing glazed double envelope and a rectangular atrium.
The IMAGE (IMplementation of Advanced Glazing in Europe) project was funded by the European Commission and involved glass manufactures, onsultants and research organisations (see acknowledgements).
