Summary

The authors of this article attempt to summarize the existing knowledge the unique air-conditioning system in the functionalist villa Tugendhat in Brno. The villa was finished in 1930 and since this year the air-conditioning system has been still in operation. The room where the air-conditioning system operates is a residential hall on the first floor which is well-known for its onyx wall. This paper presents the research and monitoring of this unique air-conditioning system. During the years 2008 – 2010 (before the historical restoration), there were performed measurements of internal microclimate in selected rooms and the data were collected. A model of the building was created using the software BSim2012. The way the model was optimmized thanks to measured data will be demonstrated in section 7.
