Under heat-stressful conditions, occupants can adapt to the environment by regulating sweating or blood flow to the surface of the skin. However, the ability of the human body thermoregulation declines with age due to age-related physiological and thermoregulatory changes such as the delay in vasodilation and sweating and lower metabolism. Therefore, elderly people (>60 years old) are more vulnerable during indoor overheating events than younger people. This study addressed the development of a general two-node bioheat model for the elderly to predict their thermal response under hot exposure. The elderly model is built on an improved two-node model for young adults but considers the delayed threshold temperatures for vasodilation and sweating suitable for the average elderly. Both models for the young (by turning off age-related physiological changes) and elderly people were validated using third-party experimental data. The discrepancy between the model predictions and measurement data for the core and mean skin temperatures are within 0.15 ℃ and 0.5 ℃ , respectively.

Building simulation models are typically not used to generate the documentation required for bidding and project delivery of commercial building systems, or for their semantic modeling and commissioning. This paper presents a software tool that aids in digitizing the control delivery process, spanning simulation during design to implementation and formal verification during commissioning. The tool can generate from Modelica models digital documentation of control sequences. This digital documentation, along with other project drawings and specifications can be used for project bidding. It can also be used for implementation of control sequences through machineto-machine translation to commercial legacy control products, for which we are currently developing the proposed ASHRAE Standard 231P based on the presented work. Moreover, as-installed control sequences can be formally verified against the design specification, and a semantic model in Brick can be exported to aid in configuration of building analytics and fault detection. The paper presents what we believe is the first translation of a Modelica-implemented control sequence to a native implementation on a commercial control platform, using the webCTRL product line from Automated Logic. The paper also shows how a webCTRL implementation can be formally verified against its Modelica specification. These use cases have all been demonstrated with a prototype implementation that is now being further developed.
