Simulation of the energy model of a rural house located in a cold climate using an in-situ monitoring system

The energy simulation of buildings is presented as a tool to analyze the comfort, consumption and energy efficiency of buildings, however, the discrepancy between simulated models and real data has been a constant, for this reason, energy model calibrations are performed to increase the reliability of the predictions of the simulation. This research carried out the simulation and calibration of the energy model of a rural house, located in a cold climate at more than 3000 meters above sea level, the study was developed in three phases, starting with the monitoring of climatological variables, followed by the energy modeling and finally, the calibration of the model is achieved by applying the iterative and scatter plot methods, allowing the selection of a model where a sequence of linear data was observed, with a strong relationship of more than 80% accuracy between the monitored data and the simulated energy model.
