动态模拟与定义的国内建筑变体一起使用，以调查英国住宅的内部温度。据估计，气候变暖和内部热量增益变化等因素将检验英国国内建筑未来是否容易过热，因此需要机械空调。研究表明，居住者适应卧室温度的能力或无能，对于理解过热的条件至关重要。虽然这很难量化（并且提出了舒适温度范围），但改变建筑结构和地理位置的影响可能会导致显著不同的热条件。正如所料，这个问题在英国南部和轻型建筑中最为明显。即使在这种情况下使用开窗时间表，模拟的平均内部温度在一年中有近12%的时间超过28°C。另一个被定义为“降温之夜”的指标表明，一年中大约三分之一的时间里，卧室区域可能存在降温问题。在英国北部，以及实墙住宅，这个问题显著减少。
Dynamic simulation is used with defined domestic building variants to investigate internal temperatures of UK dwellings. Factors such as a warming climate and varying internal heat gains are estimated to examine whether UK domestic buildings are likely to be prone to overheating in the future, and therefore require mechanical air conditioning. The study suggests that the ability, or inability, of the occupant to adapt to bedroom temperature is paramount in the understanding of the conditions for overheating. While this is difficult to quantify (and a range of comfort temperatures are proposed), the effect of changing the building construction and geographical location can result in significantly different thermal conditions. As might be expected, the problem appears most noticeable for buildings in the south of the UK and with lightweight constructions. Even with a window-opening schedule applied to such a scenario, the average internal temperature is simulated as being over 28°C for almost 12% of the year. A different metric, defined as “cooling nights”, suggests that there might be a cooling problem in bedroom areas for approximately a third of the year. In the North of the UK, and also for solid wall dwellings, this problem diminishes significantly.
