RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Surface Convection Algorithms





Mario,

I am simulating the interior cavity of the DSF as a thermal zone. Though, i still need to define the interior and exterior convective coefficients for that zone. The MoWiTT (for exterior) seems adequate for my model, but the interior algorithms do not. The behaviour of a DSF depends on complicated heat transfer mechanisms, mass transfer mechanisms and optical-solar proprieties. A mathematical aproach that takes all these and some more into account and the dependence between them all is no easy task. The heat transfer convective coeficients are highly dependable on these termodynamic principles, and change radicaly in a DSF that has natural ventilation (wind effects included). The coefficients algorithms presented in E+ are not meant to simulate this kind of complex behaviour, thus my need to define them as best as possible. In fact, and as i said before, my goal now is exactly to use this costum algorithm instead of the ones presented in E+, in order to evaluate how accuratly can the program simulate these kinds of building elements (putting against experimental data acquired in a test cell).

Pedro.

Pedro,

What if instead of a gap between panes, you had a thermal zone?

My objective is to see how E+ behaves using a especific algorithm formulated for double skin facades with natural ventilation.

I'm doing a research work on natural ventilated double skin facades, and the inside convective coefficients depends on a handfull of paramenters that need to be calculated for each time step. I must apply a not so simple algorithm, rather than using constant values, or even any of the available algorithms in E+.

I've read through the EMS, and it specifically says that it is possible to define and apply custom made algorithms for the convective coefficients, wich is exactly what i need.

Could I get any hint on where to start looking for information on what exactly is this EMS feature, what aditional tools (if any) i need to have and how to start learning how to use it? I'm rather in the blank about this, could use some guidance on where to look, thank you for your help!!
