Probabilistic window opening model considering occupant behavior diversity: A data-driven case study of Canadian residential buildings

It was found from monitored data from eight dwellings in a case study building in Quebec City (Canada) that there are clear differences in the window opening behavior between different households. This paper aims to develop from data a probabilistic window opening model that accounts for occupant behavior. Logit regression is employed to predict the state (opened/closed) of windows according to indoor and outdoor temperatures environmental and...
