EL CARÁCTER TÉRMICO COMO MÉTRICA PARA LA CALIBRACIÓN TEMPRANA DE MODELOS INFORMÁTICOS DE DESEMPEÑO TÉRMICO

Abstract

This research used the comparison of Thermal Character as a metric for the early calibration of energy models, using an analysis and representation system that simplifies the comparison between measured and simulated data. Three interior spaces of one house in Andean Cold climate were used as study case. The study evaluated the sensibility at changes in the fields of geometry, climatic file and thermal resistance. The results showed that the comparison of TC through a correlation function like metric of similitude of measured and simulated data can be used for an early calibration of energetic models in large scale series, with months or years of thermal information. Among the qualities of the proposed method are the ability to: a) provide information that feeds back the calibration and design process, b) analyze and visualize largescale climate series, c) describe quantitatively and qualitatively the thermal qualities of space in study.
