Thermal Conditions in Zones and Building Energy Use (Examples)
Balance based: PHPP
Dynamic: Energy Plus, TRNSYS, ESP-r, …
Used for
design of buildings with low energy use
assessment of the integral interaction of building, HVAC and use
expected indoor thermal conditions and energy use
but…
no hygrothermal interaction with the envelope
State of the art - building energy assessment
![Page 4: 120928 WUFIPassive ... Conditions in Zones and Building Energy Use (Examples) Balance based: PHPP Dynamic: Energy Plus, TRNSYS, ESP-r, … Used for …](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052711/5adfb3c97f8b9a97518c4c68/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Hygrothermal Conditions on and in Building Components Steady-state (e.g. Glaser method) Dynamic (e.g. WUFI, Delphin, Moisture ANK)
Used for ensuring damage-free constructions computation of the coupled heat and moisture transfer in building
components with predefined boundary conditions expected temperature and moisture distribution in building components
and energy and mass fluxes on surfaces
but… no interaction with the room predefined inner boundary conditions
State of the art - hygrothermal component simulation

Where we are…
Building energy design
PHPP
Dynamic building simulation
Hygrothermal component analysis
WUFI Pro
BUT:
Parallel assessment, no combination
![Page 6: 120928 WUFIPassive ... Conditions in Zones and Building Energy Use (Examples) Balance based: PHPP Dynamic: Energy Plus, TRNSYS, ESP-r, … Used for …](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052711/5adfb3c97f8b9a97518c4c68/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Limitations of previous Passive House assessment
General Static calculation (Only annual / monthly method) No realistic inclusion of thermal inertia
Analysis No real comfort analysis No damage analysis (e.g. mold growth)
Limited Validation Only verified for European climates No broad scale North American verification
Usability No user-friendly input No assistance for missing / incorrect Data

WUFI Background and family
WUFI = Wärme und Feuchte instationär - Transient Heat and Moisture - developed by IBP
allows realistic calculation of the transient hygrothermal behavior of multi-layer building components exposed to natural climate conditions
Why hygrothermic and not just thermic? moisture damages hygienic problems and health risks due to mould growth thermal and hygric behavior are closely interrelated: an
increased moisture content favors heat losses…the thermal situation affects moisture transport…

WUFI® Plus
Purpose assessment of indoor climate and energy demand simulation of interactions between building envelope and inner air
Focus room, whole building including components consideration of Heating / Ventilation / Cooling
Setup simple, lots of parameters creating building, definition of constructions,
surfaces, initial conditions and numeric settings derived indoor climate (internal loads, heating, shading…)
