Radiant heating and cooling systems have been shown to effectively reduce the energy consumption of buildings while improving overall occupant comfort. Radiant floor cooling systems can also be effective in areas with high direct solar heat gain by absorbing. However, one of the challenges of incorporating a radiant system is properly and accurately modeling the system for energy usage and optimal comfort, especially when most engineers utilize applications designed around more conventional air-side systems. This session explores a number of tools that are available to effective model radiant systems. Case studies are also presented.
