  5. Final presentation slides format • Introduction of the problem: 1-2 slides • Methodology (model description): 1-2 slides • Results: 3-5 Slides • Summary (findings): 1 Slide Presentation Time: 5 minutes (sharply) • 2 minutes for questions Send me the slides before the class !

  6. Advance Energy Modeling with coupled energy and airflow Example: Night Cooling/Hybrid Ventilation The IONICA Office Building, Cambridge, UK

  7. Night Cooling/Hybrid Ventilation: Requires combined Energy and airflow modeling

  8. Night Cooling/Hybrid Ventilation:The IONICA Office Building, Cambridge, UK

  9. Available software Which software to use: - Depends on project requirements - If you have a choice: the one which passed BETEST Be ready to conduct additional analysis based on your modeling skills http://www.eere.energy.gov/buildings/tools_directory/subjects_sub.cfm

  11. ES programs • Large variety • http://www.buildingenergysoftwaretools.com/ • DOE2 • eQUEST (DOE2) • BLAST • ESPr • TRNSYS • EnergyPlus (DOE2 & BLAST)

  12. eQUEST (DOE2)US Department of Energy & California utility customers • eQUEST - interface for the DOE-2 solver • DOE-2 - one of the most widely used ES program - recognized as the industry standard • eQUEST very user friendly interface • Good for life-cycle cost and parametric analyses • Not very large capabilities for modeling of different HVAC systems • Many simplified models • Certain limitations related to research application - no capabilities for detailed modeling DOE3 – very similar

  13. ESPrUniversity of Strathclyde - Glasgow, Scotland, UK • Detailed models – Research program • Use finite difference method for conduction • Simulate actual physical systems • Enable integrated performance assessments Includes daylight utilization, natural ventilation, airflow modeling CFD, various HVAC and control models • Detail model – require highly educated users • Primarily for use with UNIX operating systems

  23. Review Course Objectives 1. Identify basic building elements which affect building energy consumption and analyze the performance of these elements using energy conservation models. 2. Analyze the physics behind various numerical tools used for solving different heat transfer problems in building elements. 3. Use basic numerical methods for solving systems of linear and nonlinear equations. 4. Conduct building energy analysis using comprehensive computer simulation tools. 5. Evaluate the performance of building envelope and environmental systems considering energy consumption. 6. Perform parametric analysis to evaluate the effects of design choices and operational strategies of building systems on building energy use. 7. Use building simulations in life-cycle cost analyses for selection of energy-efficient building components.
