About This Item
Full Description
An advanced simulation engine that computes heating and cooling loads in the space by simultaneously calculating daylighting and thermal performance metrics was developed. The daylighting calculations are performed using a hybrid single bounce ray-tracing and radiosity model that determines horizontal illuminance on the students' desk. The thermal analysis incorporates a thermal network model that is solved explicitly using the finite difference method. The simulation engine calculates heating and cooling loads at each time step to determine an Annual Load Based Energy Consumption (ALBEC) value. This helps in the selection of appropriate shading device characteristics to reduce building energy demand for different locations, orientations, window size and glazing properties.
