Simulates the indoor climate (temperature and relative humidity) of a multizonal building. WISE (Wavo International Simulink Engineering tool) can be used in MatLab for:
- the hourly evaluation of the indoor climate performance
- the calculation of heating, cooling, (de-) humification amounts and capacities
WISE can be exported as an indoor climate model in SimuLink and be used for the evaluation of the integrated indoor climate and systems performance the design and evaluation of complex building systems and controllers.
