Parallelization of the coupling between CFD models for airflow and building energy simulation with an object-oriented infrastructure

摘要

Integrating CFD u26 HT models with the general building program raises the computational time of building simulations as these simulations are usually performed over a period of one year. Within this context, our aim is to couple a object-oriented modular building program with CFD u26 HT for airflow and parallelize the simulation with numerous processors for reducing computational time. Also the modular nature of the code will allow to resolve selective critical zones with CFD u26 HT models while employing simple models for airflow in less critical zones. Thus, there are different levels of modelling different rooms/elements of the building system depending on the requirements of a specific case.
