Information

Test Case 5 of the VDI 6007 Part 1: Calculation of indoor air temperature excited by a radiative and convective heat source for room version S.

Boundary conditions

  • daily profile for outdoor air temperature in hourly steps
  • no solar or short-wave radiation on the exterior wall
  • daily profile for solar radiation through the windows in hourly steps
  • sunblind closes at >100 W/m2
  • no long-wave radiation exchange between exterior wall, windows and ambient environment

This test validates reaction of indoor air temperature at mixed internal gains and outdoor impacts.

Revisions

  • April 29, 2026, by Michael Wetter:
    Changed configuration of table to cause the parameters to be evaluated, as this leads to more efficient code.
    This is for IBPSA, #2111.
  • July 11, 2019, by Katharina Brinkmann:
    Renamed alphaWall to hConWall
  • July 7, 2016, by Moritz Lauster:
    Added automatic check against validation thresholds.
  • January 11, 2016, by Moritz Lauster:
    Implemented.
