I'm not directly involved with it, but we're working on a indoor swimming, bathing and sauna project at the minute. It's just getting started so there's probably not much info at the minute. I'll keep my ears open.
Swimming pools are very difficalt subjects for simulation. Loads of air, lights, heat, chlorinated water (and air) and very interesting are the correlations between people, water, temperature and evaporation rates. What's worse, you have a large hall and the air velocities in people zones must be at a minimum to avoid draft, so you have stratified air possibly together with mixed air "zones" within the same hall.
I was asked to do some CFD and lighting simulation for some areas during the bid stage, but I'm kind of thankfull not to have to do a whole building sim for it.
There's a lot of mechanical electrical to come to grips with.
The water in our project is warmer than the air.
There have been some posts from others in this forum regarding pools. I would search for those posts for tips.
Goodluck,
Jean

I am modelling swimming pool application with dehumidification AHU with integrated heatpump (evaporator is in extract).
I just started and face a problem of schedules for occupancy and lighting. Constructions for the envelope I am going to take standard 90.1 for my climate zone and after that offset the insulation width it in order to get proper inner surface temperature (> air DP).
Please share schedules of occupancy and interior lighting or advice where can I get it.
Thank you.
