The results in this study also agree well with those of other researchers.", Therefore, the simulated data are valid and accurate for further thermal performance prognosis study for the tested building. The results reveal that the differences between the on-field and simulation measurements were in the acceptable range which is 10-20%. The on-field measurements were carried out by using ADHD323 WBGT-PMV (indoor measurement) and MK-III Weather Stations (outdoor measurement). Air temperature, relative humidity and mean radiant temperature have been selected as the main variables to assess the thermal environment.

This study discusses the investigation on the accuracy of IES-VE Software in simulating indoor thermal environment of a double-story house in Bang i, Malaysia by comparing with on-field measurement. Integrated Environmental Solutions-Visual Environment (IES-VE) is considered as one of the common thermal performance simulation programs. The results in this study also agree well with those of other researchers.Ībstract = "In recent years, numerous simulation softwares have been created, upgraded and being used for building thermal performance.
