modelMoistureGains

Model for moisture gains that are produced by plants, cooking, etc.

Information

Overview

This model gives the output for latent heat release by plants, cooking, showering, etc. (except from persons). The moisture output has to be set in g/(h m²).

Concept

The moisture output is defined in some norms as an average output per hour and squaremetre. This output will be considered by this model.

The latent heat output depends on the air temperature in the room where the moisture sources are located.

    Adapted model to latest changes in IBPSA. Providing latent heat of moisture at 37 degree Celsius.
