Computer Modelling Basics of Buiding Services Systems

FAST-CT09Acad. year: 2011/2012

Basic question of computer modelling of the typical problems from building services at design and running the objects and is focused the thermal transfer and material related with making the environmental of building. Basic energy processes in the buildings, typical simulation models to theirs identification. Modelling of marginal conditions. Modelling of thermal and hydraulic behaviour of the building services systems and theirs components. Utilities for technical practice. Application computer technology.
