Passive Design Simulation

Passive Design Simulation is a type of building performance simulation that specifically models the thermal and energy dynamics of buildings to evaluate design strategies relying on passive systems—such as natural ventilation, thermal mass, and solar orientation—rather than active mechanical systems to achieve indoor environmental comfort.
