摘要:In this paper, the discrete empirical interpolation method (DEIM) and the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) method are combined to construct a reduced order model to lessen the computational expense of hygrothermal simulation. To investigate the performance of the POD-DEIM model, HAMSTAD benchmark 2 is selected as the illustrative case study. To evaluate the accuracy of the POD-DEIM model as a function of the number of construction modes and interpolation points, the results of the POD-DEIM model are compared with a POD and a Finite Volume Method (FVM). Also, as the number of construction modes/interpolation points cannot entirely represent the computational cost of different models, the accuracies of the different models are compared as function of the calculation time, to provide a fair comparison of their computational performances. Further, the use of POD-DEIM to simulate a problem different from the training snapshot simulation is investigated. The outcomes show that with a sufficient number of construction modes and interpolation points the POD-DEIM model can provide an accurate result, and is capable of reducing the computational cost relative to the POD and FVM.
