Description
Summary:The paper deals with the development of multifunctional software application for testing the thermal stability of modern intelligent buildings using commercial software tools for simulation of physical processes. It describes method designed to parameterize the simulation module for the temperature distribution in a room heated by two heat sources by using COMSOL Multiphysics software. A parameterized model allows you to change the requirements of the geometric dimensions of all elements of the module and Their spatial distribution, as well as a choice of physical properties and pasting real measured data needed to assess the distribution of temperature in the room depending on the ambient temperature and the heat input of the considered sources. Parameterization enables to insert all necessary data into COMSOL Multiphysics by using external txt files, which can be up to this end through a sub-application. Connecting COMSOL Multiphysics to a sub-application allows comfortable loading parameters to external users via a web interface without knowledge of the work environment in COMSOL Multiphysics. © 2015, North Atlantic University Union.
