Versione 1<br />

A single zone IDA ICE model with default primary and secondary systems, comprises a total of about<br />

600 time dependent variables, any of which may be plotted, such as: zone heat balance, inclu<strong>di</strong>ng specific<br />

contributions from: sun, occupants, equipment, lights, ventilation, heating and cooling devices, surface<br />

transmissions, air leakage, cold bridges and furniture. Solar influx through windows with full 3D account for<br />

local sha<strong>di</strong>ng devices. Air CO2 and moisture levels. Air and surface temperatures. Comfort in<strong>di</strong>ces, PPD and<br />

PMV, Total energy cost, based on time-dependent prices.<br />

1.2.32.6. Computer Platform<br />

PC with Windows 95/98/NT. Minimum 16 MB of RAM memory and 20 MB of free hard-<strong>di</strong>sk space<br />

are needed.<br />

1.2.32.7. Programming Language<br />

Common Lisp, Fortran<br />

1.2.32.8. Strengths<br />

IDA ICE has been requested, specified and partly financed by a group of thirty lea<strong>di</strong>ng Scan<strong>di</strong>navian<br />

AEC companies. The mathematical models have been developed at the Royal Institute of Technology in<br />

Stockholm (KTH) and at Helsinki University of Technology. The models are not tailored to Scan<strong>di</strong>navian<br />

needs but seek to capture the international state-of-the-art in buil<strong>di</strong>ng performance modelling. Whenever<br />

appropriate, models recommended by ASHRAE have been used.<br />

1.2.32.9. Weaknesses<br />

Execution time is highly dependent on model structure and control. A yearly simulation of a ten zone<br />

model takes ten minutes on an 450 MHz PC. The execution time increases roughly in proportion to the<br />

number of zones.
