Information

Linearised and time-invariant model of a single zone considering equivalent building components

Hypothesis and equations

This model allows the representation of Individual House / Collective Housing / Tertiary Building in single zone. The modelling is simplified to consider only an equivalent external wall and an equivalent glazing surface both being independant of the orientation.

The level of thermal losses represented by Ubat is a parameter of the model. This model leads to a linear time-invariant model that can be reduced.

Geometry

Model of a parallelepiped 0D-1D square section single-zone. The building height depends on the number of levels (NbNiveau), on total air volume (Vair) and on the living area (SH). Glazing are defined by a total surface.

Building typology

Constructive system (materials and layers thicknesses) are considered in detail through wall definition caracParoiExt, caracPlancher...

Inertia is adjustable by choosing the constructive mode.

Physics

The building envelope is decomposed into 3 equivalent models for external walls, roof and floor. The external wall and roof models are subject to short-wave and long-wave radiations (SWR and LWR).

Long-wave radiations on the external walls and roof are outsourced and should be computed through the Ts connector.

The calculation of incident and transmitted irradiations is outsourced of this model and is performed by a SolarBC model. This calculation is detailed and considers the influence of the walls and glazing orientation. Therefore the non-linear incidence of the angle of incidence for short-wave radiation, is outsourced. The transmitted irradiation through the glazing is absorbed on floor(s) surface.

The coefficient B defined a boundary condition in term of temperature on the outer face of the lowest floor.
