Abstract

NANDRAD is a dynamic building energy simulation program. It calulates heating/cooling requirements and electric power consumption with respect to realistic climatic conditions and dynamic room usage. The model includes one-dimensional spatially resolved heat transport through multi-layered walls and thermal storage of solid components (room furniture/building walls). Consequently, massive constructions forms in the European area are very well represented. Further, NANDRAD calculates geometrical long radiation heat exchange inside the room. Heating systems may be modeled with a high level of geometrical detail, i.e. surface heating systems as part of the wall constructions and radiant heaters inside the room. NANDRAD can be applied for passive building simulation, energy optimization and thermal comfort analysis with respect to a very detailed building representation. In this terms, the model supports the simulation of a large number of zones and walls without need for subgrouping or other model reduction strategies.:1 Introduction 2 NANDRAD multi-zone building model 2.1 Fundamentals 2.2 Building component models 2.3 Building services and usage 2.4 Climatic model 3 Model equations 3.1 Balance equations 3.2 Construction balance boundary conditions 3.3 Construction energy sources/sinks 3.4 Windows 3.5 Ambient environment 3.6 Zone internal loads 3.7 Construction internal heat sources 3.8 Loads on inside interfaces 3.9 Evaluation of thermal comfor
