The scientific staff Katharina Boudier, Mohamad Rida and Sarith Subramaniam had Research results on the 16. internationalen IBPSA-Konferenz in Rom presented.

The topics presented were:

“Modeling decentralized systems for energy savings based on detailed local thermal comfort calculations” (Katharina Boudier)

“Using a Dynamic Clothing Insulation Model in Building Simulation -Impact on Thermal Comfort and Energy Consumption” (Mohamad Rida)

"A Critical Evaluation of Radiance as a Tool for Calculating Radiation View Factors" (Sarith Subramaniam)

At the conference, global representatives from the field of building simulation met and discussed current research priorities. A special focus this year was on the topics "Daylighting and Lighting", "Human behaviour" and "Indoor Environmental Quality".
