Abstract :

[en] ] In this research, we look for a control strategy of the electrochromic windows, depending on the measurement of the vertical outdoor illuminance and the outdoor temperature, for an efficient highly glazed office building in Brussels. We simulate this building in TRNSYS. We implement a Perez model in TRNSYS to assess the vertical diffuse outdoor illluminance. As the building is equipped with a dimmable lighting system, we assess the average indoor illuminance. We simulate the switching dynamics of the elctrochromic window and we implement a control strategy. Finally, we evaluate the primary energy consumption due to HVAC and lighting, the risk of overheating and the average indoor illuminance.
