EESLISM is a tool developed to simulate the whole energy system consisting of both building thermal system and mechanical system for heating and cooling and domestic hot water supply. Although the algorithm is based on the heat balance model, the algorithm is designed to reduce the size of simultaneous equations for increasing computation efficiency and simplification in developing software. The simulation results can be used also to examine the heating and cooling system demand, since the imaginary components for generalized heat load simulation of the system are prepared. As an example the simulation of a multi family house with a central type of space and water heating system is described.
