Our dynamic thermal simulation enables a data-driven approach which we can use to predict internal temperatures, air flow and occupant comfort in existing offices.It allows us to model scenarios so that building operators can effectively predict threats to occupant comfort.
We can test rectification measures in a simulated environment and understand how they will affect energy bills – before choosing the most appropriate option.. A moment to act.Once you have planned how to meet the challenges of thermal comfort, now is also the time to do a full MOT of your ventilation, heating and cooling plant.
