La simulation thermo-aéraulique du bâtiment : Validation et développement d’une approche couplée CFD-Multizone pour l’étude de la modélisation du phénomène de surchauffe estivale en Belgique

For decades, growing interests in environmental and buildings energy performance concerns lead architects and building engineers to develop new skills and to get used to advanced simulation tools. Among them, Multizone models and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models are increasingly used to solve problems of building physics. This Thesis reports the development of a new and optimized tool based on the coupling of these two tools and its application to a typical Belgian two-storey house. Indeed, separately, these two tools have significant advantages and disadvantages : • Multizone models... Mehr ...

For decades, growing interests in environmental and buildings energy performance concerns lead architects and building engineers to develop new skills and to get used to advanced simulation tools. Among them, Multizone models and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models are increasingly used to solve problems of building physics. This Thesis reports the development of a new and optimized tool based on the coupling of these two tools and its application to a typical Belgian two-storey house. Indeed, separately, these two tools have significant advantages and disadvantages : • Multizone models are based on the hypothesis that the temperature is uniform in every simulated zone which implies that they are not suited for large spaces. However, in small spaces, Multizone models generate accurate results in a small amount of time. • CFD models are very accurate, independently of the size of the room or the type of physical phenomena encountered. However, it is also well known that CFD simulation are time and resources consuming. Consequently, it is not possible to use it for a long term study. This Thesis will first introduce these approaches and discuss their validity field. In order to do this, a validation process has been developed to assess the ability of CFD to model accurately physical phenomena at different study scales. This Thesis will then discuss the coupling scheme developed in this study, based on experimental results of a two-storey house in Belgium. Different coupling level will be studied in order to understand deeply needs of such approach. Eventually, it will be shown that coupling approach can drastically improve overheating prediction for buildings even for a long term simulation. Thanks to this new tool, building actors may design optimized cooling strategies while maximizing occupants comfort. ; Les préoccupations environnementales croissantes et la question de la performance énergétique des bâtiments entraînent, pour le secteur de la Construction, la nécessité d’employer des outils de ...
