Hello,
I want to simulate the thermal performance for typical houses in the UK (or
England). National calculation method (http://www.ncm.bre.co.uk) is for
buildings other than dwellings. But hourly schedules for equipment gains,
lighting, and occupancy are available from this database. For example,
Dwell_DomBed(An area primarily used for sleep), Dwell_DomLounge (The main
reception room of the home), etc. I am not sure whether these schedules are
appropriate for the application of building simulation in typical UK houses? If
not, any other database may be avaiable for the UK houses? I have checked the
Standard Assessment Procedure SAP and there are not detailed hourly schedules
for this purpose.
Thanks a lot,
Jin
