Abstract :
This paper deals with the modelling of a multizone university building in the town of Perpignan, in southern France. An energy simulation software (EnergyPlus) is used to create a model of the building´s thermal behaviour. The building has been instrumented and the comparison between simulated and measured temperatures validates the obtained model.
