Incorporating a modular system simulation program into a large energy analysis program : the linking of IBLAST and HVACSIM+ | 1995 | English
Most currently available hourly energy analysis programs utilize separate and sequential simulations of the building, air handling systems, and primary energy plants.
An integrated approach for energy saving and control optimisation of centralized air-conditioning system | 1995 | English
This paper presents an integrated approach for the energy saving, control optimization and BEMS/BMSapplication of centralized air conditioning systems.
PowerDOE a new, PC-based building energy performance simulation tool, combines the full capabilities of DOE-2.IE with an easy-to-use, flexible WindowSTMgraphical user interface (GUI). PowerDOE is a collaborative effort between the U.S. Department
Manufactured housing walls that provide satisfactory moisture performance in all climates | 1995 | English
We used the MOIST Computer Model to conduct a detailed analysis of the moisture performance of one wall typical of current construction practice in manufáctured housing, and mo new altemative wall designs with potential for better moisture perform
Even at the beginning of the concept and planning phase for low energy buildings co-operation between architect and different engineers is, mandatory.
The Neutral Model Format for building simulation was proposed in 1989 as a means for documentation and exchange of models.
IDA is a flexible, object-oriented, environment for simulation of buildings and their subsystems. The key features of the system are summarized. Available IDA literature is listed.
An Anglo-French collaborative project is presently under way with the dual purpose : a) to collect high quality data sets for the empirical validation of thermal simulation programs of buildings and b) to develop and test advanced data analysis te
An error analysis method applied to a building simulation software : an example of application and its results | 1995 | English
Within the framework of an Anglo-French validation project funded by EDF and the BRE, a building model has been tested using an error analysis method. The first step enabled the identification of the different discrepancy sources.
TRNSYS is a modular transient system simulation program that has been commercially available since 1975. The primary use of TRNSYS is to model thermal energy systems.
Lightpad 2.0 : a portable audit and design (pad) tool for evaluating retrofit lighting options | 1995 | English
The EPRI LightPAD program is a simple but powerful lighting audit and analysis tool for assessing installed lighting systems and proposing cost-effective, energy-efficient retrofit alternatives.
Building energy and system simulation programs : model development, coupling and integration | 1995 | English
This paper presents some results of the development and application work of the Building Equipmentsection at EMPA related to integrated building and HVAC simulation environments.
The potential of the different passive cooling strategies for popular residential buildings in Israel is evaluated using a simplified simulation program.
Examples on application of system simulation in preplanning, sizing and comissioning of HVAC systems are briefly given and typical obstacles for a more broader utilization in engineering offices are introduced.
The current models of boilers and furnaces which are used in HVAC system simulation programs are primarily concerned with calculating the heat output of the device and its fuel consumption.
Data for convective heat transfer coefficients (CHTC's) published in the literature tend to be for anisolated heated vertical plate, with few data based on measurements at room surfaces Accurate values of CHTC's for internal room surfaces are need
There is increasing interest in Europe in the use of displacement ventilation and chilled ceiling coolingsystems.
