Night cooling control strategies. Dynamic thermal simulation results.

This report is the third in a series produced for project 11621 "Night Cooling Control Strategies". The first report was a literature review of night cooling techniques, the second report detailed the results from case study buildings that were monitored in 1995 and this report includes the results of dynamic thermal simulation. APACHE thermal simulation software was used to model a basic representation of one of the case study buildings. The performance of a range of night cooling control strategies, including those applied in the case study buildings were tested against a selection of variables that could influence performance. The variables were selected to represent the range of conditions that could be experienced in actual buildings
