In building engineering and in the area of thermal environment, various modeling methods advanced to predict either the building energy consumption or airflow and temperature distribution within buildings. These methods are based on the different level of simplifications, the conservation equations used, the accuracy and the applications targeted. A new zonal model POMA+ has been developed to predict...
This paper presents a framework for an adaptive thermal heat balance model (ATHB), which combines the adaptive comfort approach with existing heat balance models. This is done by setting up equations for each of the three adaptive processes (behavioural, physiological, and psychological) individually to modify the input values for the clothing level and metabolic rate of the PMV calculation. The coefficients...
