Stack Effect Simulator

See how buoyancy, temperature difference, and building height combine to drive airflow through a structure. Adjust conditions and openings and watch the neutral pressure level and pressure profile respond in real time.

Mold Growth Simulator

Run measured hourly temperature and humidity through the VTT mold growth model. Drop in a year of logger data to see where the mold index crosses the visible-growth threshold, compare material sensitivity classes, and export the hourly results.

Why These Tools Matter

Reduce Risk

Identify condensation and moisture risks early to prevent failures, callbacks, and costly litigation.

Improve Performance

Optimize enclosure systems for durability, comfort, energy efficiency, and occupant well-being.

Make Informed Decisions

Use sound building science analysis to support design choices and communicate with confidence.

More Resources Coming Soon

We're building additional calculators, guides, and reference materials to support building enclosure design and performance. Check back often!
