Abstract |
Mathematical treatment of massive wall systems is a useful tool
for investigation of these solar applications. The objectives of
this work are to develop (and validate) a numerical solution model
for predication the thermal behaviour of passive solar systems with
massive wall, to improve knowledge of using indirect passive solar
systems and assess its energy efficiency according to climatic
conditions in Bulgaria. The problem of passive solar systems with
massive walls is modelled by thermal and mass transfer equations.
As a boundary conditions for the mathematical problem are used
equations, which describe influence of weather data and
constructive parameters of building on the thermal performance of
the passive system. The mathematical model is solved by means of
finite differences method and improved solution procedure. In
article are presented results of theoretical and experimental study
for developing and validating a numerical solution model for
predication the thermal behaviour of passive solar systems with
massive wall.
