Information

Model predicting the occupancy of a single person office.

References

The model is documented in the paper "Wang, D., Federspiel, C.C. and Rubinstein, F., 2005. Modeling occupancy in single person offices. Energy and buildings, 37(2), pp.121-126."

The model parameters are regressed from a field study in California with 35 single person offices at a large office building from 12/29/1998 to 12/20/1999.

  Reformulated model so it works also if the simulation does not start at 0.
  To improve efficiency, this reformulation also changes the event triggering function so that it leads to time events rather than state events.
  This is for #2590.
• August 1, 2018, by Zhe Wang:
  First implementation.
