Étude et optimisation aérothermique d'un alterno-démarreur / No title in englishJandaud, Pierre-Olivier 14 June 2013 (has links)
Cette thèse porte sur l’étude et l’optimisation aérothermique d’un alterno-démarreur utilisé dans les véhicules hybrides. Ces machines produisant beaucoup plus de puissance qu’un alternateur classique, leur refroidissement est donc critique. La machine est modélisée en utilisant la méthode nodale en régime permanent qui utilise des réseaux de conductances thermiques. Pour alimenter le modèle, on utilise des corrélations issues de la littérature pour modéliser les transferts convectifs et on effectue des calculs CFD de la machine complète pour obtenir la répartition des débits. Les résultats obtenus numériquement sont ensuite validés expérimentalement à l’aide d’essais par Vélocimétrie par Images de Particules et d’essais thermiques par mesure thermocouples. Dans un deuxième temps, on couple un algorithme d’optimisation au code pour obtenir une géométrie de la machine optimale d’un point de vue thermique. La méthode retenue est l’Optimisation par Essaim Particulaire (PSO). L’optimisation se fait sur la taille des têtes de bobines, la position des ventilateurs et la section des canaux rotoriques. On obtient des géométries différentes selon les objectifs que l’on cherche à atteindre. La dernière partie de la thèse porte sur l’optimisation multi-objectifs d’un dissipateur située sur la partie électronique à l’arrière de l’alternateur : le dissipateur doit refroidir le plus possible l’électronique sans pour autant perturber l’écoulement. On étudie aussi plusieurs formes d’ailettes pour atteindre ces objectifs. / The goal of this thesis is the aero-thermal study and optimization of a starter-alternator used in hybrid cars. This kind of machines being more powerful than a regular alternator, their cooling is critical. The machine is modeled using lumped method in steady state which uses networks of thermal conductances. The inputs for the model are obtained using correlations from bibliography for the convective heat transfers and three dimensional CFD for the flow rates inside the machine. The numerical results are validated by experimental results with PIV for the fluid results and a machine fitted with thermocouples for the thermal part. In the second part, the thermal code is coupled with an optimization algorithm to obtain an optimal geometry of the machine from a thermal point of view. The method chosen is Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The parameters are the sizes of the end-windings, the positions of the fans and the cross section of the rotor channels. For different objectives, different optimal geometries are obtained. The last part of this work aims at the multi-objectives optimization of a heat sink located at the back of the machine. The heat sink has to be thermally efficient but should not affect the flow. Different shapes of fins are also studied.

Estudo do efeito do aporte térmico de uma solda SAW na zona afetada pelo calor de um material API 5L X100M através de simulações computacionais. / Effect of the heat input of an SAW welding in the heat affected zone of an API 5L X100M steel through computational simulations.Girão, Izabela Ferreira 05 October 2018 (has links)
Este trabalho tem por objetivo simular a zona de grãos grosseiros da ZAC através da simulação computacional em software de elementos finitos e submeter amostras de um aço microligado API 5L X100M a ciclagens térmicas na Gleeble para representar a região de estudo e, dessa forma, caracterizar e comparar o comportamento mecânico e microestrutural do material frente a diferentes aportes térmicos. Foram realizadas simulações de soldagem por arco submerso (SAW) em software computacional de elementos finitos para os aportes térmicos 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 e 5.0 kJ/mm e obtidos os ciclos térmicos de um local correspondente à zona de grãos grosseiros da zona afetada pelo calor (ZAC). Em seguida, o ciclo obtido para cada aporte simulado foi utilizado como fonte para a simulação térmica na Gleeble de amostras do metal de base de um tubo produzido para a norma API 5L grau X100M. Em seguida, foram realizados ensaios de microdureza nos corpos de prova após simulações térmicas na Gleeble e no material de base como recebido, para efeitos de comparação dos resultados. Para cada aporte de calor simulado, um corpo de prova foi destinado para avaliação de microdureza e posterior análise microestrutural. As amostras remanescentes foram submetidas a ensaio de impacto charpy em temperatura de 0°C para as amostras de aporte de calor 2.5, 3.0, 4.0 e 4.5 kJ/mm e, para os demais aportes térmicos foi feito levantamento de curva de transição entre as temperaturas de -60 a 24°C. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que existe uma correlação entre tenacidade, aporte de calor e morfologia do constituinte MA gerado na região de estudo, de maneira que foram obtidos menores valores de energia absorvida conforme maior o aporte de calor simulado. Também, nessas condições foi observado que o constituinte MA apresentou uma maior tendência ao formato globular que ao alongado. / The objective of this study is to simulate the coarse grain from the heat affected zone (CGHAZ) through computer simulation in finite element software and to submit samples of an API 5L X100M micro alloyed steel to thermal cycling in Gleeble to replicate this region and thus characterize and compare the mechanical and microstructural behavior of the material face to different heat inputs. Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) simulations were performed in finite elements software for heat inputs of 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 and 5.0 kJ/mm. Afterwards, the thermal cycle curve obtained for each simulated heat input was used as the source for the thermal simulation in Gleeble of samples taken from the base metal of a pipe produced for API 5L standard and X100M grade. Subsequently, microhardness tests were performed in the Gleeble simulated samples and in as received material for the purpose of comparing the results. For each heat input simulated, one test specimen was used for microhardness and microstructural analysis. The remaining samples were subjected to a charpy V notch impact test at the temperature of 0°C for the 2.5, 3.0, 4.0 e 4.5 kJ/mm heat inputs and a transition curve was plotted between -60 up to 24°C for heat inputs 2.0, 3.5 and 5.0 kJ/mm. The obtained results demonstrates that there is a correlation between toughness, heat input and the MA constituent morphology, in a way that lower values of absorbed energy were obtained as the simulated heat input increased. In this condition, it was also observed that the MA constituent showed a greater tendency to become more globular than elongated.

Sur la modélisation et la simulation du comportement mécanique endommageable de verres borosilicatés sous sollicitation thermique / On the modeling and simulation of the mechanical behavior and damage of borosilicate glass under thermal loadingBarth, Nicolas 15 July 2013 (has links)
On étudie le comportement thermomécanique de colis de déchets vitrifiés par modélisation multi- physiques. Les colis sont réalisés avec un conteneur en acier inoxydable dans lequel est coulé un verre borosilicaté. Pour le verre, la méthode des éléments finis est employée pour les calculs thermiques, la relaxation structurale du volume massique, le comportement viscoélastique et l’endommagement. Ces lois consécutives modélisent l’influence de la sollicitation thermique initiale. La relaxation structurale du verre, issue du modèle TNM-KAHR, permet la prise en compte d’effets fondamentaux quant à la transition vitreuse, en fonction des traitements thermiques expérimentaux et simulés. Lorsque le verre dépasse localement une criticité du champ de contrainte, on procède au couplage du calcul de structure viscoélastique, pour le verre solide en relaxation,avec la mécanique de l’endommagement qui réactualise la rigidité et les contraintes en mode I et en mode II. On applique cette méthodologie complète de simulation à l’issue des adaptations nécessaires au cas de blocs de verre massifs en solidification. Ces modèles permettent alors l’obtention de surfaces de fracturation quantifiées, dans le verre, à partir de l’énergie dissipée par le modèle d’endommagement. / We study the thermomechanical behavior of vitrified waste packages by multiphysics modeling. The packages are manufactured by the cast of borosilicate glass into stainless steel canisters. The finite element method is used for the thermal computations.In the glass, the finite element analysis is also used to compute the specific volume evolution and the viscoelastic behavior, due to the structural relaxation of glass, as well as the simulation of the damage behavior. These consecutive behavior laws model theinfluence of the initial thermal response. Glass structural relaxation is computed using the TNM-KAHRmodel, which allows us to take into account fundamental phenomena of the glass transition, depending on the results of experimental and simulated thermal treatments. For the solid glass within this relaxation process, the stress may locally increase beyond critical values. The viscoelastic structure simulation is then coupled with continuum damage mechanics where stresses and stiffness are updated in mode I and mode II. We apply this simulation protocol after adopting conditions relative to the case of these manufactured bulky solidifying glass casts. The models then allow us to quantify the cracking surfaces inside the glass fromthe energy dissipated within the damagemodel.

Sustainability Of High-rise Buildings:energy Consumption By Service Core ConfigurationGuryay, Ilkay 01 September 2012 (has links) (PDF)
The concept of ' / sustainability' / came into question during the last few decades world-wide. As one of the main source of carbon emission, construction industry is also affected by this movement. High-rise buildings which became proliferative components of construction industry dominate today' / s urban centers. Although they are defended as being inherently energy efficient by some people, specially designed sustainable high-rise building examples emerged after the sustainability movement all over the world.
This dissertation examines the role of the service core configuration on the sustainability of high-rise buildings. In this context, the effect of different core types and locations on the energy consumption of high-buildings is evaluated. For this respect, sixteen alternative configuration models with central, end and split core types are determined as the representative of possible design choices. The alternatives share the same height, net and gross floor area, floor efficiency, materials, internal gains, etc. They just vary in type and location of the service core and orientation of the building mass.
Energy consumptions of the sixteen models are tested with eQUEST, a thermal simulation program, by using the climatic data of Istanbul. The simulation is conducted according to two air conditioning scenarios for office and core zones. For both of the scenarios, split core alternatives are found as the most energy efficient configurations regardless of the core location and building orientation. Moreover, it is observed that while the end core alternatives giving average values, central core configurations have the highest energy consumption results, as predicted.

Thermal Issues in Testing of Advanced Systems on ChipAghaee Ghaleshahi, Nima January 2015 (has links)
Many cutting-edge computer and electronic products are powered by advanced Systems-on-Chip (SoC). Advanced SoCs encompass superb performance together with large number of functions. This is achieved by efficient integration of huge number of transistors. Such very large scale integration is enabled by a core-based design paradigm as well as deep-submicron and 3D-stacked-IC technologies. These technologies are susceptible to reliability and testing complications caused by thermal issues. Three crucial thermal issues related to temperature variations, temperature gradients, and temperature cycling are addressed in this thesis. Existing test scheduling techniques rely on temperature simulations to generate schedules that meet thermal constraints such as overheating prevention. The difference between the simulated temperatures and the actual temperatures is called temperature error. This error, for past technologies, is negligible. However, advanced SoCs experience large errors due to large process variations. Such large errors have costly consequences, such as overheating, and must be taken care of. This thesis presents an adaptive approach to generate test schedules that handle such temperature errors. Advanced SoCs manufactured as 3D stacked ICs experience large temperature gradients. Temperature gradients accelerate certain early-life defect mechanisms. These mechanisms can be artificially accelerated using gradient-based, burn-in like, operations so that the defects are detected before shipping. Moreover, temperature gradients exacerbate some delay-related defects. In order to detect such defects, testing must be performed when appropriate temperature-gradients are enforced. A schedule-based technique that enforces the temperature-gradients for burn-in like operations is proposed in this thesis. This technique is further developed to support testing for delay-related defects while appropriate gradients are enforced. The last thermal issue addressed by this thesis is related to temperature cycling. Temperature cycling test procedures are usually applied to safety-critical applications to detect cycling-related early-life failures. Such failures affect advanced SoCs, particularly through-silicon-via structures in 3D-stacked-ICs. An efficient schedule-based cycling-test technique that combines cycling acceleration with testing is proposed in this thesis. The proposed technique fits into existing 3D testing procedures and does not require temperature chambers. Therefore, the overall cycling acceleration and testing cost can be drastically reduced. All the proposed techniques have been implemented and evaluated with extensive experiments based on ITC’02 benchmarks as well as a number of 3D stacked ICs. Experiments show that the proposed techniques work effectively and reduce the costs, in particular the costs related to addressing thermal issues and early-life failures. We have also developed a fast temperature simulation technique based on a closed-form solution for the temperature equations. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed simulation technique reduces the schedule generation time by more than half.

Contribution à la modélisation électrothermique: Elaboration d'un modèle électrique thermosensible du transistor MOSFET de puissanceDia, Hussein 12 July 2011 (has links) (PDF)
Une forte exigence de robustesse s'est imposée dans tous les domaines d'application des composants de puissance. Dans ce cadre très contraint, seule une analyse fine des phénomènes liés directement ou indirectement aux défaillances peut garantir une maîtrise de la fiabilité des fonctions assurées par les nouveaux composants de puissance. Cependant, ces phénomènes impliquent des couplages entre des effets électriques, thermiques et mécaniques, rendant leur étude très complexe. Le recours à la modélisation multi-physique bien adaptée s'avère alors déterminant. Dans ce mémoire de thèse, nous proposons une méthodologie de modélisation électrique prenant en compte les effets de la température sur les phénomènes localisés qui initient une défaillance souvent fatale. En prévision de la simulation électrothermique couplée impliquant des transistors MOS de puissance, un modèle électrique thermosensible de ce composant et de sa diode structurelle a été développé. Corrélativement un ensemble de bancs expérimentaux a été mis en oeuvre pour l'extraction des paramètres et pour la validation du modèle. Une attention particulière a été accordée à l'étude des phénomènes parasites qui pourraient survenir de manière très localisée suite à une répartition inhomogène de la température et à l'apparition de points chauds. Ainsi les fonctionnements limites en avalanche, avec le déclenchement du transistor bipolaire parasite et de son retournement ont été modélisés. Des bancs spécifiques pour la validation du modèle pour les régimes extrêmes ont été utilisés en prenant des précautions liées à la haute température. Enfin, Le modèle électrique thermosensible complet développé a été utilisé par la société EPSILON Ingénierie pour faire des simulations électrothermiques du MOS de puissance en mode d'avalanche en adaptant le logiciel Epsilon-R3D.

Prédiction des performances énergétiques des bâtiments avec prise en compte du comportement des usagers / Buildings energy performance prediction including occupants' behavioursDarakdjian, Quentin 05 July 2017 (has links)
L’amélioration continue de la performance énergétique des bâtiments a été accompagnée par un développement d’outils numériques de plus en plus performants et précis. Alors que la prise en compte des phénomènes liés aux bâtiments, aux systèmes et à la météorologie est bien maîtrisée, le comportement des occupants est modélisé de manière très simplifiée par des scénarii répétitifs et des lois déterministes. L’impact des occupants sur les consommations énergétiques dans les bâtiments performants est pourtant majeur, comme en témoigne les écarts récurrents entre les résultats prédits et mesurés. Le travail de thèse propose, par l’intermédiaire d’une plateforme multi-agents et de modèles stochastiques, une mise à jour de la prise en compte de la présence des occupants et de leurs comportements sur la gestion des ouvrants, des dispositifs d’occultation, de l’éclairage et de la température de consigne de chauffage. Le champ d’application de la plateforme concerne les bâtiments de bureaux et de logements, pour des opérations neuves et de rénovation. Les modèles de comportement des occupants sont idéalement issus de campagnes de mesures in situ, d’études de laboratoire ou d’enquêtes sociologiques. La plateforme proposée est alors co-simulée avec le logiciel EnergyPlus, afin d’étudier l’influence des modèles sur les performances énergétiques. Dans la perspective de garantie de performance énergétique, ce travail contribue à la mise à jour et à la fiabilisation des outils de prédiction. / Continuous improvement of the building energy performance is associated with the development of increasingly efficient and accurate numerical tools. While the consideration of phenomena related to buildings, systems and weather is well mastered, occupants’ behaviours are modelled in a very simplified way by repetitive scenarios and deterministic laws. The impact of occupants on energy consumption in high-performance buildings is dominant, as evidenced by the recurring gaps between predicted and measured results. The thesis demonstrates, via a multi-agent platform and stochastic models, an update on the ability to model occupants’ presence, their behaviours on windows, occultation devices, artificial lighting and heating setpoint temperatures. The application of the platform applies to office and residential buildings, for new builds and refurbishments. Occupants’ behaviour models are ideally obtained from in situ surveys, laboratory studies or sociological works. The suggested platform is then co-simulated with the EnergyPlus software, to study the influence of the models on a buildings energy performance. In the perspective of energy performance guarantees, this work contributes to the updating and reliability of prediction tools.

Etude d'un système innovant de rafraîchissement basse consommation pour le bâtiment / Study of an innovative low energy cooling system for buildingsLeroux, Guilian 21 October 2016 (has links)
Pour faire face à la forte augmentation de la consommation en climatisation et la consommation électrique associée, il est nécessaire de développer des systèmes de rafraîchissement basse consommation de bâtiment. Ce travail propose un nouveau système de rafraîchissement qui se veut économe en énergie, peu coûteux et simple à installer. Il associe les techniques de dissipation de chaleur par évaporation, rayonnement vers le ciel et géothermie. Ce système est constitué d'un réservoir poreux installé en extérieur et d'un réservoir de stockage placé dans le vide sanitaire. Lorsque le bâtiment a besoin de rafraîchissement, une pompe puise de l'eau fraîche dans le stockage, la fait passer dans le plancher rafraîchissant pour absorber la chaleur excédentaire du bâtiment puis stocke l'eau dans le réservoir poreux placé à l'extérieur. Le réservoir poreux refroidit l'eau qu'il contient par évaporation, rayonnement vers le ciel puis se vide dans le stockage. Le réservoir de stockage installé dans le vide sanitaire se refroidit aussi en continu grâce au contact direct avec le sol. Les propriétés poreuses et la géométrie du réservoir poreux influent fortement sur ses performances de refroidissement. Une étude paramétrique menée avec un modèle numérique simulant les transferts hydriques et thermique permet de choisir un réservoir adéquat pour cette application. Un réservoir poreux donnant de bonnes performances (70 W/m2 de puissance évaporative) a été identifié. Le système de rafraîchissement a été installé et testé expérimentalement sur une maison à échelle réelle à Bordeaux. Mis en service durant l'été 2015, le système a fonctionné de façon autonome durant 44 jours. L'utilisation de ce système a permis de maintenir durant la période de test un très bon confort thermique à l'intérieur d'un bâtiment expérimental bien isolé, non ventilé, avec des apports solaires, tout en ayant une consommation électrique faible (le COP moyen du système est de 20.8). Un modèle numérique du système complet a été développé sous Modelica, calibré sur les mesures expérimentales puis couplé à un modèle de bâtiment. Les résultats de simulation montrent que l'installation de ce système améliore nettement le confort intérieur du bâtiment sur l'ensemble de l'été pour toutes les configurations testées (climat, gestion des voletsdots). Un système aux dimensions optimisées (avec un stockage de 2.2 m3 et un réservoir poreux de 0.215 m3), installé sur une maison individuelle type RT2012 de 100 m2 à Bordeaux, fonctionne avec un COP moyen de 24 et permet de maintenir un bon niveau de confort à l'intérieur du bâtiment tout l'été. / To face the dramatic increase of energy consumption due to air conditioning use in buildings, new low energy consumption systems need to be developed. This work proposes a new cooling system which aims to be energy efficient, cheap and easy to install. This system takes advantage of evaporation cooling, ground earth cooling and sky radiative cooling techniques. The two main components of this new system are a porous tank set outside and a storage tank set in the basement of the building. When the inside house temperature exceeds the comfort temperature, cool water passes from the storage tank through the cooling floor, removes heat from the building and is then send to the porous tank. The water contained in the porous tank is cooled down due to evaporation and radiative effects and then flows back to the storage. The storage tank installed in the basement enables further cooling of the water thanks to direct contact with the ground. Porous properties and geometry of the tank have a great influence on the cooling performances of the tank. A heat and mass transfer model has been developed to simulate the thermal and hydric behavior of the tank. This model has been used to choose an appropriate tank. A tank giving good performances (70 W/m2 of evaporative power) is identified. The complete cooling system has been installed on a house in Bordeaux and tested at real scale during an experimental campaign. The system worked for 44 days during summer 2015 and allowed to maintain a very good thermal comfort level in the experimental building (insulated, with solar load and without ventilation). Its very low electricity needs brings the average coefficient of performance of the system to 20.8. A numerical model of the system has been developed, calibrated with experimental data and coupled with a building model. Simulation results show that for all tested configurations (climate, shading…), the system clearly improves the thermal comfort in the building. Optimized sizing, keepinp reasonnable tank sizes (storage and evaporator volumes of 2.2 m3 and 0.215 m3 respectively), shows that this system works with an average COP of 24 and maintains a good comfort level in an individual house of 100 m2 located in Bordeaux.

Confort thermique et énergie dans l’habitat social en milieu méditerranéen : d'un modèle comportemental de l’occupant vers des stratégies architecturales / Thermal comfort and energy in social housing in Mediterranean area : From a behavioral model of occupants to architectural strategiesBatier, Cécile 14 March 2016 (has links)
La performance énergétique des bâtiments peut être estimée grâce à la réalisation de simulations de thermique dynamique qui prennent en compte différentes hypothèses conventionnelles telles que celles définies dans la réglementation thermique 2012 (météo, occupation, consignes de température, usages de la fenêtre et du volet par les occupants, etc.). Les retours d’expériences dans les bâtiments énergétiquement performants mettent en évidence des écarts importants de consommations énergétiques entre les prévisions et les mesures in situ ainsi que des surchauffes estivales. D’après la communauté scientifique, même s’il existe de multiples facteurs pouvant expliquer ces écarts, l’occupant semble être l’élément le plus impactant. En effet, son action sur la fenêtre et le volet modifie le renouvellement d’air et la gestion des apports solaires. L’usage mais aussi la typologie de la fenêtre et du volet affectent donc les consommations énergétiques et le confort. L’objectif de notre étude est l’analyse de l’évolution thermique d’appartements occupés afin d'établir un modèle comportemental de l’occupant réel permettant de quantifier l’impact des modifications architecturales sur le confort thermique et les performances énergétiques des bâtiments. L’objet d’étude est un ensemble de deux résidences situées sur la commune de Vauvert (Gard, France) construites en 1969. De caractéristiques constructives identiques et suite à des rénovations similaires (V.M.C., chaudières, fenêtres), l’une d’entre elles a été récemment isolée thermiquement par l’extérieur. Une analyse sur une année des conditions thermiques réelles, du comportement individuel de l’occupant et des consommations d’énergie est menée sur la base d’enquêtes et par une instrumentation in situ dans les séjours de 13 appartements occupés. Elle nous permet de définir un modèle comportemental de l’occupant soit 32 combinaisons d’usage de la fenêtre et du volet qui peuvent être regroupées selon trois profils d’occupants (l’occupant « expert », l’occupant « actif » et l’occupant « contre-productif »). La modélisation fine des paramètres nécessaires pour les simulations de thermique dynamique réalisées avec Pléiades+COMFIE, aide à la compréhension de l’impact des stratégies architecturales sur le confort et les consommations énergétiques des bâtiments en milieu méditerranéen. L’analyse thermique des deux résidences (isolée et non isolée) montre, en hiver, des niveaux similaires de consommation pour un confort réduit dans la résidence non isolée. Cependant, en été, lors de pics de température, des surchauffes apparaissent dans la résidence isolée. Le comportement de l’individu a ainsi un rôle essentiel dans la limitation de l’inconfort d’été. Les analyses des mesures in situ montrent que des stratégies permettant le rafraîchissement des appartements ne sont pas toujours mises en place par les occupants. Des solutions architecturales atténuant le comportement contre-productif de l’individu sont finalement évaluées. / The current design of energy-efficient buildings used to be performed by dynamic thermal simulations using conventional hypotheses like those of the 2012 French thermal regulations (weather reports, occupancy, temperature set, operations of windows and shutters by occupants, etc...). However, feedback highlights a great difference in energy consumption between forecasts on the one hand and in situ measurements in winter as well as overheating in summer on the other hand. According to the scientific community, even if many factors can account for this gap, the inhabitants seem to play a major role in it as well. Indeed, by acting on their windows and shutters, they modify the renewal rate of fresh air and the management of solar contributions. As the matter of fact, the use and the type of windows and shutters affect the energy consumptions and the comfort. The aim of this study is to analyse the thermal evolution of occupied apartments in order to establish a behavioral model of the occupants. This will allow us to quantify the impact of architectural modifications on the thermal comfort and the energy performances of buildings.Two residential buildings are investigated in Vauvert (a city in southern of France). Both of them were built in 1969 using the same constructive techniques and have lately been renovated in a similar way (CMV, boilers, windows). The only difference is that on the facade of one of them an external thermal insulation has recently been installed. The analysis of the real thermal conditions, of the actual human behavior and of the amount of energy consumed is built on surveys and on an extensive year-round in situ instrumentation in the living rooms of 13 apartments. It allows us to define a behavioral model of occupants based on 32 different combinations in the operations of windows and shutters. We can divide them into three occupants' profiles (the “expert” occupant, the “active” occupant and the “counterproductive” occupant). Digital Pléiades+COMFIE simulations are made in order to validate this model. The refined modeling of the dynamic thermal simulation parameters helps to understand the impact on the thermal comfort and the energy consumption of different architectural strategies in the Mediterranean area.In winter the thermal analysis of the two residential buildings (insulated and non insulated) shows similar levels of consumption, but a lower level of thermal comfort in the non insulated case. However during temperature peaks in summer, overheating appears in the insulated dwellings, but human behavior is the key to limit occupants’ discomfort. The analysis of in situ measurements shows that strategies to cool down the apartments are not always implemented by occupants. Architectural solutions mitigating “counterproductive” occupants’ behavior are finally examined.

ANÁLISE DA INTEROPERABILIDADE ENTRE OS PROGRAMAS COMPUTACIONAIS AUTODESK REVIT E ENERGYPLUS PARA A SIMULAÇÃO TÉRMICA DE EDIFICAÇÕES / ANALYSIS OF THE INTEROPERABILITY BETWEEN AUTODESK REVIT AND ENERGYPLUS FOR THERMAL SIMULATIONS IN BUILDINGSQueiróz, Gabriel Ramos de 16 August 2016 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The Autodesk Revit software has been increasingly used in architecture due to the advantages brought about by the incorporation of BIM technology, which combines all the information representing a real building into a single virtual model. However, its capabilities have not yet been fully explored, such as in building simulations, for which Revit lacks detailed thermal analytical features. Thus, this study aims to examine the reliability of the interoperability between Autodesk Revit 2016 and EnergyPlus 8.4.0 by using Revit models for thermal simulations in EnergyPlus, one of the most commonly used tools for this purpose. The methodology consists of case studies targeting building models based on Case 600, from ASHRAE Standard 140, and Casa Eficiente Project, located in the city of Florianópolis, Brazil. The digital models of both buildings were produced in Revit with different modelling processes (conceptual mass or building elements with rooms or spaces) and software settings. All of these BIM models were exported in IFC, gbXML and IDF file formats and later converted through the use of additional tools in order to be opened in EnergyPlus. Such files were compared with the reference model of each building produced directly in EnergyPlus, using SketchUp containing the plug-in Legacy OpenStudio, in order to check for any distortions occurring in the process of data transfer when performing model exports and conversions. This comparison was based on parameters defined for geometry, simulation settings (materials thermal properties, building use and occupation etc.) and simulation results containing outputs of monthly internal temperatures for the thermal zones of each model. The results showed variations and similarities among the different types of modelling, export processes, and file formats used, revealing that distortions in data transfer become larger the more complex the building model is. This study points out conceptual mass models from gbXML files regardless of the export mode out of Revit as a viable alternative to be used in conjunction with EnergyPlus, as they preserve the geometrical accuracy of the building, even as some Revit default settings may be transferred over, thus failing to reflect some of the aspects of the real built environment. However, it was found that Revit models in general are not recommended for these types of exports due to the resulting rework needed for correcting files. It was concluded that the interoperability between Autodesk Revit and EnergyPlus is not perfect, as their combined use allows for data transfers that make possible the thermal simulation of buildings, however, in this exchange there are distortions in the exported geometries and lack of the necessary data for correct simulation in all exported models. / O programa computacional Autodesk Revit tem seu uso crescente na prática de projetos de arquitetura devido às vantagens pela incorporação da tecnologia BIM, a qual reúne todas as informações que representam uma edificação real em um único modelo virtual. Contudo suas capacidades ainda não são totalmente exploradas, inclusive no âmbito de simulação computacional de edificações no qual o programa carece de ferramentas para análises térmicas detalhadas do ambiente construído. Portanto, este estudo objetivou analisar o grau de confiabilidade da interoperabilidade entre os programas Autodesk Revit 2016 e EnergyPlus 8.4.0, para verificar o uso de modelos digitais de edificações criados no Revit em simulações térmicas realizadas na ferramenta EnergyPlus, uma das mais difundidas para este fim. A metodologia consistiu em estudos de caso com modelos de edificações baseados no Case 600, da norma ASHRAE Standard 140, e no Projeto Casa Eficiente, localizado em Florianópolis. Os modelos digitais de ambas as edificações foram produzidos no Revit com diferentes processos de modelagem (massas conceituais ou elementos de construção com ambientes ou espaços inseridos) e configurações do programa. Todos estes modelos BIM foram exportados nos formatos de arquivo IFC, gbXML e IDF e posteriormente convertidos para a extensão suportada pelo EnergyPlus, com o auxílio de ferramentas adicionais, para serem abertos no programa. Tais arquivos foram comparados com o modelo de referência de cada edificação produzido diretamente no EnergyPlus, por meio do programa SketchUp com o plug-in Legacy OpenStudio, para verificar as distorções na transferência das informações quando foi realizada a exportação e conversão dos modelos. Esta comparação foi feita com base em parâmetros definidos para as geometrias, configurações de simulação (propriedades térmicas dos materiais, padrões de uso e ocupação, entre outros) e resultados das simulações com valores de saída para as temperaturas internas mensais das zonas térmicas de cada modelo. Os resultados demonstraram variações e similaridades entre os tipos de modelagem, de processo de exportação e de formato de arquivo utilizado, cujas distorções na transferência dos dados são maiores quanto mais complexo for o modelo da edificação. A pesquisa apontou que os modelos de massas conceituais provenientes de arquivos gbXML, independentemente do modo de exportação a partir do Revit, configuraram-se como alternativa mais viável para utilização no EnergyPlus, por se manterem mais próximos à geometria da edificação, ainda que sejam transferidas configurações padrão do Revit que podem não retratar a realidade do ambiente construído. Porém, foi verificado que, de maneira geral, os modelos digitais do Autodesk Revit não são recomendados para esse tipo de exportação devido ao retrabalho diante da necessidade de correções nos arquivos. Concluiu-se que não é perfeita a interoperabilidade entre os programas computacionais Autodesk Revit e EnergyPlus, pois existe a possibilidade de transferência de informações para simulações térmicas de edificações, entretanto nesta troca há distorções nas geometrias e falta de dados necessários para a correta execução da simulação em todos os modelos exportados.
