Information

This package contains validation cases for Reduced Order Models according to Guideline VDI 6007 Part 1 (VDI, 2012). The guideline defines twelve test cases that consecutively test different aspects of building pyhsics behaviour. All tests are based on a simple test room, either in a lightweight version (L) or as heavyweight (S). A third version changes one interior wall into a second exterior wall for the heavyweight construction.

Comparative results are supplied with the guideline and have been calculated using two different programs for electrical circuit calculations (for day 1, 10 and 60 in hourly steps). The validation procedure is originally thought to verifiy the correct implementation of an analytical calculation algorithm defined in the guideline. For that, a range of max 0.1 K or max 1 W deviation is allowed. As the implementation cannot reflect all aspects of the algorithm, the implemented model exceeds these values in some cases.
