Elaboration of a new tool for weather data sequences generation
Laetitia Adelard, Thierry Alex Mara, Harry Boyer +1
This paper deals about the presentation of a new software RUNEOLE used to provide weather data in buildings physics. RUNEOLE associates three modules leading to the description, th…
Black box modelling of HVAC system : improving the performances of neural networks
Eric Fock, Thierry Alex Mara, Alfred Jean Philippe Lauret +1
This paper deals with neural networks modelling of HVAC systems. In order to increase the neural networks performances, a method based on sensitivity analysis is applied. The same…
Use of BESTEST procedure to improve a building thermal simulation program
Ted Soubdhan, Thierry Alex Mara, Harry Boyer +1
Validation of building energy simulation programs is of major interest to both users and modellers. To achieve such a task, it is essential to apply a methodology based on a priori…
A Comparison between CODYRUN and TRNSYS, simulation models for thermal buildings behaviour
Franck Lucas, Thierry Alex Mara, François Garde +1
Simulation codes of thermal behaviour could significantly improve housing construction design. Among the existing software, CODYRUN and TRNSYS are calculations codes of different c…
Parametric sensitivity analysis of a test cell thermal model using spectral analysis
Thierry Alex Mara, Harry Boyer, François Garde
The paper deals with an empirical validation of a building thermal model. We put the emphasis on sensitivity analysis and on research of inputs/residual correlation to improve our…
A validation methodology aid for improving a thermal building model: Case of diffuse radiation accounting in a tropical climate
A. J. P. Lauret, T. A. Mara, H. Boyer +2
As part of our efforts to complete the software CODYRUN validation, we chose as test building a block of flats constructed in Reunion Island, which has a humid tropical climate. Th…
