The instructions listed here should make it easier to get started with DELPHIN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This example shows the basic process of creating a project in DELPHIN. The necessary steps for setting up a simulation for the hygrothermal evaluation of the construction before and after the renovation are explained on the basis of an old building’s outer wall that needs to be thermally improved. This tutorial is intended as an introduction to DELPHIN and is suitable for getting to know the most important features<\/p>\n\n\n\n
