Heat Load Calculation by Means of CTF vs. SR 1907

摘要

Calculus methods for heat load and energy consumption in buildings available in Romania were developed before large-scale development of advanced computer equipment and computer programs or advanced simulation technics, which is why we have base computational models of simple conduction in steady state. Therefore, based on these methodologies we cannot make detailed analyzes regarding heat load and energy consumption in built environment. The main objective of our work is to compare the established Romanian methodology of heat load calculation with the more precise one of CTF (Conduction Transfer Functions). Also we are trying to establish the CTF method as an alternative to the steady state conduction method that is currently in use.
