Model to estimate the impact on the thermal comfort of low setpoints and restarts.
Hypothesis and equations
2 buildings are modelled, one having a heating system controlled by a PID and taking into account low temperature setpoints, the other one does not taking low temperature setpoints into account. Thermal discomfort is evaluated in each case.
Bibliography
none
Instructions for use
Simulate then plot blocks inconfortChaud and inconfortFroid outputs describing the difference between thermal discomforts. These values are to be compared to the discomfort values over the year of each system+built couples.
Known limits / Use precautions
none
