ISO 15099
This software implements several parts of ISO 15099:
glazing systems heat transfer calculation;
evaluation of glazing fill gas mixtures;
cavities effective conductivity evaluation;
boundary conditions with blackbody and detailed radiation models.
Glazing systems heat transfer calculation
On "Areas" tab, View -> "ISO 15099 Glazing System" menu becomes enabled. After clicking on it, a new window will pop up:
Every detail of the glazing system can be customized. Once all the desired properties have been set, you can hit "Click to fill" on the various layers to transfer material properties to "Areas" tab and fill parts of your project with them.
Evaluation of glazing fill gas mixtures
On the window we've just described, you can choose every gap's kind of gas. If you select "Mixture" another dialog will pop up; through this form you'll be able to generate any kind of gas mixture.
Cavities effective conductivity evaluation
Cavities effective conductivity can be computed using ISO 15099 method. In order to choose which kind of algorithm has to be used you can (on "Areas" tab):
fill every cavity by hand, choosing "Cavity" as material type and "15099 unventilated" or "15099 slightly ventilated" as cavity type;
set "ISO 15009" as cavity detection algorithm.
Boundary conditions
Internal and external ISO 15099 boundary conditions have been implemented. On "Boundary" tab, convection and radiation components can be fully customized. Please note that blackbody and detailed radiation models are available.
