Author(s) : SIMMONDS P.

Summary

Using a dynamic simulation computer program various configurations were simulated which resulted in an optimum design being achieved based upon comfort conditions and not temperatures. The paper shows how different fabric construction, glass types, sun shading and air-conditioning systems were simulated, resulting in an optimal design and operating strategy for a comfortable inside climate throughout the year.
