Calibration of Building Performance Simulations for Zero Carbon Ready Homes: Two Open Access Case Studies Under Controlled Conditions (2025)
Journal Article

This study provides a detailed dataset from two modern homes constructed inside an environmentally controlled chamber. These data are used to carefully calibrate a dynamic thermal simulation model of these homes. The calibrated models show good agree...
