Information

Test Case 6 of the VDI 6007 Part 1: Calculation of heat load excited with a given radiative heat source and a setpoint profile for room version S. Is based on Test Case 2.

Boundary conditions

  • constant outdoor air temperature 22°C
  • no solar or short-wave radiation on the exterior wall
  • no solar or short-wave radiation through the windows
  • no long-wave radiation exchange between exterior wall, windows and ambient environment

This test validates heat load calculation without maximum heating power.

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
