Thermal performance of buildings - Calculation of internal temperatures of a room in summer without mechanical cooling - Simplified methods (ISO 13792:2005)

ISO 13792:2005 specifies the required input data for simplified calculation methods for determining the maximum, average and minimum daily values of the operative temperature of a room in the warm period to define the characteristics of a room in order to avoid overheating in summer at the design stage, and to define whether the installation of a cooling system is necessary or not. The criteria to be met by a calculation method in order to satisfy this standard are also given.
