modelOneZoneConstantFloorTemperature
Validation model with one thermal zone with constant floor temperature
Extends from Buildings.ThermalZones.EnergyPlus_24_2_0.Examples.SingleFamilyHouse.Unconditioned.
Information
Model that uses EnergyPlus and sets the floor temperature to a constant value.
When simulated, the heat flow rate at the floor is often around 10..20 Watts. However, it becomes negative when the direct solar irradiation is high, indicating that the net heat flow rate is from the room into the construction due to the solar gains that hit the floor even though the surface temperature is above the room air and room radiative temperature.
