Package Content

Name Description
Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.Initialization.MixedAir MixedAir Validation model for the correct initialization of the mixed air model

Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.Initialization.MixedAir Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.Initialization.MixedAir

Validation model for the correct initialization of the mixed air model

Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.Validation.Initialization.MixedAir

Information

This model tests the correct initialization of Buildings.ThermalZones.Detailed.MixedAir. The air temperature should start at -15ˆ C and remain there.

Note that there are still very small heat flows even if all solar radiation is set to zero and all boundary conditions and start values are set to -15ˆ C. The reasons are as follows:
