Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The aim of the subject Modeling of building physical phenomena in buildings is to deepen and expand knowledge and skills in the field of simulation modeling and evaluation of details of building structures and entire buildings from the point of view of selected areas of building physics - building thermal engineering of buildings and energy performance of buildings, building acoustics or building lighting technology. Depending on the focus of their dissertation, students will devote themselves in detail to the given professional area, expand their practical skills when working with professional calculation programs and methods used for: 2D and 3D simulation calculations of stationary and non-stationary conduction of heat and moisture in building structures (ANSYS, WUFI software ), solutions for energetic dynamic simulations of buildings (DesignBuilder software), calculation of sound insulation of walls, floors, roofs, ceilings and windows and overall design of space acoustics (INSUL software), simulation calculations of daylighting and sun exposure of interior rooms, buildings and outdoor areas (BuildingDesign software , DesignBuilder, Light+).
