Entry level WUFI® training where you will learn what hygrothermal modelling and WUFI® software is capable of with hands-on practice.
This is an introduction to the science of coupled heat and moisture analysis and material properties. You will learn what hygrothermal modelling and WUFI® software is capable of, get hands on training and become confident in how to carry out a hygrothermal analysis and how to effectively interpret the results.
Learning outcomes
This course aims to give you hands-on experience to generate a WUFI® 1D simulation of a building element. The ultimate purpose is to be able to interpret and present the results of a simulation. By the end of the course you will be able to:
Install and set up WUFI® Pro software
Navigate the software and understand the features
Set up a project
Access climate files
Understand the compatibility with weather synthesis programs
Use product material libraries
Define and edit basic vapour permeability properties for membranes
Run simulations
Understand the concepts behind initial conditions, moisture and heat sources and sinks
Model basic ideal systems
Interpret and present simulation results
