Résumé

Radiant floor heating systems have become a reference technology, but their use for cooling purposes has proven inconvenient in many applications due to their reduced cooling capacity and condensation issues. Nonetheless, potentialities and drawbacks of radiant floor cooling systems have been frequently addressed and simulated, given the large potential advantages of employing a single emissive system for all seasons. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive review of the modeling methods for radiant floor cooling systems proposed in scientific papers and also used in simulation software and technical standards. Models are classified according to their characterizing features, and the distinctive contributions of each method are discussed. Additionally, the modeling of the most relevant phenomena affecting floor performance is further discussed. The review revealed the presence of two main modeling classes, one only focusing on the floor’s conductive heat transfer and the other integrating active floor analysis within the building’s energy model of the thermal zone. Despite the presence of many modeling methods that are able to consider the most important effects in the radiant cooling system operation, not all the phenomena present in a practical application are fully described. Therefore, there is an ongoing need for more comprehensive, possibly easily characterizable, modeling approaches.
