Description

A Matlab code with an example workspace is provided for IOhD (Calculation & illustration), AWD (Calculation & illustration), CCOhR (Calculation), Zonal OpT (illustration), and HWs (illustration).

An Excel file is provided for IOhD (Calculation & illustration), IOcD (Calculation & illustration), AWD (Calculation & illustration), ACD (Calculation & illustration), CCOhR (Calculation), and CCOcR (Calculation).

The users should adapt the code and the Excel file based on their needs in terms of building zones and weather scenarios,...
