Fundamentals of Building Performance Simulation pares the theory
and practice of a multi-disciplinary field to the essentials for
classroom learning and real-world applications. Authored by a
veteran educator and researcher, this textbook equips graduate
students and emerging and established professionals in engineering
and architecture to predict and optimize buildings' energy use. It
employs an innovative pedagogical approach, introducing new
concepts and skills through previously mastered ones and deepening
understanding of familiar themes by means of new material. Covering
topics from indoor airflow to the effects of the weather, the
book's 19 chapters empower learners to: Understand the models and
assumptions underlying popular BPS tools Compare models,
simulations, and modelling tools and make appropriate selections
Recognize the effects of modelling choices and input data on
simulation predictions And more. Each subject is introduced without
reference to particular modelling tools, while practice problems at
the end of each chapter provide hands-on experience with the tools
of the reader's choice. Curated reading lists orient beginners in a
vast, cross-disciplinary literature, and the critical thinking
skills stressed throughout prepare them to make contributions of
their own. Fundamentals of Building Performance Simulation provides
a much-needed resource for new and aspiring members of the building
science community.
