Ladakh Thermal Shelter Surrogate Dataset

Dataset Overview

This dataset contains high-fidelity physics-based thermal simulation logs generated locally using EnergyPlus for specialized area-specific shelter design focused on thermal comfort maintenance in extreme cold environments like Ladakh, India.

Dataset Structure

• —Total Rows: ~1.31 Crore (13,140,000 hourly simulation time-steps)
• —Configurations: 1,500 unique shelter variations generated via Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS).

Input Features (X)

• —ambient_temperature [C] - Outdoor dry-bulb temperature from Leh weather file.
• —humidity [%] - Relative humidity of ambient air.
• —wind_speed [m/s] - Wind speed acting on the shelter boundary.
• —solar_radiation [W/m2] - Direct solar radiation rate per area.
• —shelter_length [m] - Internal length of the modular shelter.
• —shelter_width [m] - Internal width of the shelter.
• —shelter_height [m] - Ceiling height of the shelter.
• —orientation [deg] - North-axis orientation angle of the building layout.
• —wall_thickness [m] - Thickness of the structural envelope/insulation layer.
• —material_conductivity [W/m-K] - Thermal conductivity coefficient of the wall material.
• —material_density [kg/m3] - Material density dictating thermal mass capacity.
• —specific_heat [J/kg-K] - Specific heat capacity of the material.

Target / Output (Y)
