A pilot project for a low energy building equipped with thermal slabs, heat pump and ground heat storage | 2003 | English
A convergent optimization method using pattern search algorithms with adaptive precision simulation | 2003 | English
Thermal building simulation programs, such as
EnergyPlus, approximate solutions of a differential
algebraic system of equations. While the theoretical
A new method of cfd simulation of airflow chracteristics of swirling floor diffusers | 2003 | English
Air supply diffusers used in air-conditioning systems can be classified as ceiling diffusers, sidewall diffusers, floor diffusers, jet nozzles, and low velocity displacement diffusers.
Two dissimilar models capable of predicting the electrical and thermal performance of residential cogeneration fuel cell systems have been developed for use with the ESP-r building simulation program.
A study on the application of the radiant floor cooling system integrated with a dehumidification system | 2003 | English
When applying the radiant floor cooling system, it is important to prevent condensation on the floor surface. To solve this problem, a radiant floor cooling system integrated with the dehumidification system has been proposed and evaluated.
A methodology analyse the thermal loads of nonresidential buildings based on simplified weather data | 2003 | English
This paper presents a methodology to analyse the thermal loads of non-residential buildings based on simplified weather data, which are available for 206 Brazilian locations.
A simulation study on the response of charged and discharged thermal energy in building thermal mass storage systems | 2003 | English
This study discusses charging and discharging performance in building thermal mass storage systems. Building thermal mass storage systems utilize the thermal masses of the beams and the concrete floor slab to absorb cool energy that is produced us
Computer based modeling tools were used to examine the hygrothermal environment inside a heavy-masonry historic building experiencing crypto-efflorescence damage to its moisture-laden brick vault.
We present a representational framework for the integrated operation of multiple environmental systems in buildings. A methodology for the automatic generation of this framework is introduced.
Statistical interpretation of the results of building simulation and its use in design decisions | 2003 | English
The practical use of building simulation software requires a global and comprehensible interpretation of results for decision support in design.
