TLDR
In this article, a simplified thermal network model (ELAN) is developed for the assessment of thermal comfort and energy consumption for heating and cooling of a building, where each zone is modelled by a second order network with two temperature nodes which, for a multizone building, are linked by internal transmission and ventilation.About:

A critique of the environmental temperature model
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model that reduces the 21 conductance network that represents radiant exchange in a six surface enclosure to just a single conductance, and so failed to distinguish between emissivity and geometrical aspects of radiant exchange; the argument appeared to suggest that the temperature t ei so arrived at was a meaningful enclosure parameter; it assumed that heat could be input at t eI.
