LVIS-2000 tyyppirakennukset. (LVIS-2000 model buildings)
The use of simulation programs for calculation of energy consumption and comfort factors of buildings has increased in recent years. Simulation programs offer a possibility to study energy systems and indoor climate repeatedly under similar conditions. A simulated study can be carried out in a considerably shorter time than real-time monitoring. Different model buildings have been specified in the LVIS-20OO program, to improve the repeatability of simulations and to make it easier to compare the results of different researchers. In interviews with researchers in the field it has transpired, that there is a need for development of model buildings suited for simulation studies. Especially office buildings, detached houses and blocks of flats were mentioned. This report deals with the structure of buildings and design conditions for indoor climate. The energy systems of these buildings may be chosen depending on the purpose of the specific research project. Also the weather data to be used and the way it should be treated is reported. Moreover the influence of different window constructions on the transmittance coefficient for solar radiation is considered. The described model buildings are designed for energy calculations, system simulations and other research and development needs. A basic case is presented for each one of the buildings. This basic case may be changed to meet with different research needs. To obtain unambiguousity the buildings have been described as simple as possible. This has been the basis for choosing and designing of the ground plans.
