What is Thermal Modelling?
Thermal Modelling involves taking designs and building specifications, representing them in a 3-dimensional model and running a year-long simulation to provide detailed results.
The year-long simulations are undertaken on a room-by-room basis to calculate the building performance which can then be used for the analysis of the building.
This is done with Dynamic Simulation Modelling (DSM) using actual weather and solar data for the building’s specific location which is orientation accurate. A multitude of details are input into the software including, but not limited to, building fabric, mechanical and electrical services, zonal activities, occupancy periods and HVAC schedules.
This provides the ability to compare the simulated results against project specific criteria designed to limit overheating.
