Query regarding ventilation in Delphin
I am simulating a wall and have used the WTA6.2 indoor climate model. Is is possible to input the ACH (air change rate) value inside the room? Or what is the default value that it is considering ?
Re: Query regarding ventilation in Delphin
Hello,
The WTA indoor climate model doesn't simulate a real indoor climate. It only calculates indoor temperature and relative humidity based on the daily average of the outdoor temperature. Therfore no ventilation is set or needed.
If youz like you can precalulate the indoor climate with a room or building simulation program. Our software THERAKLES for example is such a room climate simulation. Here you can set natural and mechanical ventilation, user loads and more. It calculates room temperature and relative humidity and stores it as ccd files directly usable in DELPHIN.
For the next DELPHIN version (6.1.8) I will add the ASHREA 160 model. With this you will have more options for indoor climate.
Best regards
