ladybug_comfort.degreetime module¶
Utility functions for calculating Heating and Cooling Degree-Time.
- ladybug_comfort.degreetime.cooling_degree_time(t, t_base=23)[source]¶
Calculate cooling degree time at a single time interval.
- Parameters
t – The temperature at a given time interval.
t_base – The base temperature above which a given time is considered to be in cooling mode. This should be in the same units as the input temperature. Default is 23 Celsius, which is a common balance point for buildings.
- ladybug_comfort.degreetime.heating_degree_time(t, t_base=18)[source]¶
Calculate heating degree time at a single time interval.
- Parameters
t – The temperature at a given time interval.
t_base – The base temperature below which a given time is considered to be in heating mode. This should be in the same units as the input temperature. Default is 18 Celsius, which is a common balance point for buildings.
