    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Naeim Rashidfarokhi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis work tries to study the annual calibration process for building performance simulations. The bottom-up modelling is a tool to predict energy consumption in Urban Building Energy Modeling (UBEM) which is a common approach to find the most appropriate retrofitting strategies or to monitor energy use for a group of buildings (an archetype), a neighbourhood or a city.
