Course Title

Advanced Simulation for High Performance Buildings

Description

Students learn how to use advanced building simulation tools and techniques to assess the impact of buildings and neighborhoods on thermal comfort and carbon footprint. For high performance buildings, passive and active design strategies are incorporated to find suitable solutions for a climate region. The simulation tools include a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model and a nodal model.
