Information
Air node in pure thermal modelling
Hypothesis and equations
This model is used to represent the thermal inertia of an air node in pure thermal modelling, meaning that no mass flow rate is considered explicitelly.
This model can be used to represent a room or even multiple homogeneous thermal zone (same temperature setpoint, same boundary conditions...
