Environment Modelling and Building Physics
Indoor environment
Indoor environment modelling includes following types of analysis and studies:
- Flow visualisation: flow patterns visualisation, flow strealines, iso-surfaces and velocity, temperature and turbulent intensity field contours/plots.
- Air supply diffusers and components: assessment and optimisation of ventilation system components.
- EN 15251 and EN 7730 indoor environment: Draught Rate (RD), Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD). Categorising the indoor environment (Classes I, II, III and IV).
- ASHRAE 55 indoor environment: Standard Effective Temperature (SET) and Operative Temperature (Top).
- Elevated velocity thermal comfort assessment, based on ASHRAE 55: Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD).
- Enclosed spaces: enclosed bus and train stations, stadia, meeting halls, shopping centres, atrium spaces, universities, schools, office, houses, apartment buildings and others.
