Abstract

The impact of the infiltration and airflow pattern of the building envelope and structure on thermal load is significant. Building energy simulation tools take this feature into account when calculating the heating and cooling load and evaluating the indoor hygrothermal environment. However, in many cases, the infiltration and airflow modeling is performed without appropriate assumption and understanding in research and the industrial field of building energy simulations. This is due to not only the lack of understanding or ignorance of their significance but also the complex nature of the infiltration and airflow pattern in buildings.
