Last time we looked at scripting the creation of many input files for a parametric study of a building energy concept. Now we will turn to the post-processing side of the energy modeling workflow. Often, a spreadsheet tool like Excel … Continue reading
Could it be? The eQuest killer? The death of Trane Trace? Is this the long awaited graphical interface for Energyplus? After seeing some recent rumors stirring in some of the building simulation circles about a new GUI for Energyplus, I … Continue reading
In the last part we covered the creation of geometry. In the example videos we chose to use the default construction profile for our surfaces within OpenStudio. It is now time to modify those construction templates with ones that resemble the actual design specified construction performance. Continue reading
The latest release of the EnergyPlus building energy simulation program, Version 4.0, is now available in versions for Windows, Linux, and Mac operating systems. A few key new features include We have updated and extended capabilities throughout the existing building … Continue reading
