Transparente Wärmedämmung. Simulation
Abstract
Correct design and reliable performance estimates of active and passive solar systems incorporating transparent insulation materials (TIM) require computer simulation programs available at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems: WANDSIM does dynamical calcualtions of TIM-insulated walls using finite differences and is the base module for HAUSSIM, a multi-zone model describing the thermal behaviour of buildings. Several TIM wall modules were developped for the simulation package TRNSYS, one based on WANDSIM, and one using detailed transfer functions. Based on the latter, a simplified model was developped. Also for TRNSYS, an integrated collector storage model was written. With the help of the described TIM software design procedures can be accelerated and improved. Project examples are given.
