Multi-Modal Building Model Generation
Multi-modal single-/multi-zone white-box building digital twin generator from OpenStreetMap and publicly available data.
A Lego-like visual 3D modeling tool, RoomFlex, used for adjusting the outline of building envelopes, dividing and merging areas, adding door and window openings, and exporting the model as a workable Modelica building model.
The left side shows a 3-zone Modelica building model generated using the RoomFlex modeling tools, and the right side shows a schematic diagram of the model, which includes the building envelope, power generation components, heating components, energy storage components, and home appliances.
A schematic diagram of the heating components and their circuits, including the heat storage tank, mixing valve, water pump, heating terminal, and control components, which is intended to reproduce the actual physical characteristics of the heating system as accurately as possible.
