Advanced Modeling Techniques
Sponsored by National Science Foundation This is a 3-year international collaborative research project among University of Colorado Boulder, University College Dublin, Ireland and Ulster University in United Kingdom.
Sponsored by Defense Threat Reduction Agency This five-year project aims to model the transport of harmful biological and chemical compounds in urban environment using different modeling techniques, such as computational fluid dynamics and
The goal of this collaborative research, with ORNL (who is the overall project lead) and the Electric Power Board (EPB) of Chattanooga, is to create calibrated virtual models of buildings within a utility’s service area to enable advanced grid
In support of DOE’s Building Energy Codes Program, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) developed a suite of prototype building models representing newly constructed commercial buildings that comply with ASHRAE Standard 90.1 and IECC
The objective of this research is to reconcile the differences between the empirical and modeled baselines for energy performance comparison for new and existing commercial buildings, allowing seamless translation of building energy performance
Powerful computational capabilities have always been sought after by those working in fields that require vast amount of calculations to be done in a relatively short amount of time and a low cost. To meet this needs, we are conducting
This research is to create a coupled simulation of indoor environment, envelope, HVAC and control systems to support the controls design and evaluation of energy efficient ventilation. The fast fluid dynamics (FFD) model is adopted to model the
