Hello this code is to find the temperature at every point in walls, roof, floor assemblies. The code is run for 5 days for every hour of the day. The temperature obtained should never be below -5 degrees Celsius. A random initial temperature is given and it is expected to see the temperature converge quickly over the period of 5 days. However in my code, the temperature does not seem to converge and temperature values of below -5 degrees celcius is obtained. I would also like for the temperature over the 5 days for the 24 hours to be saved into an Excel file for easy access. Can anyone help please? This is a transient state thermal analysis. %BLDG 476 Project 1: Thermal analysis of existing building in Algeria clc clear;
