Building Energy Simulation: A Workbook Using De, Garg, Mathur, Bhatia..

CRC Press

The 2nd edition of Building Energy Simulation includes study of various components and systems of a building and their effect on energy consumption, with the help of DesignBuilderTM supported by examples and exercises. It explains simulation input parameters and how to do analysis of the simulation output explaining building physics concepts. > \nThe second edition of Building Energy Simulation includes studies of various components and systems of buildings and their effect on energy consumption, with the help of DesignBuilderTM, a front-end for the EnergyPlus simulation engine, supported by examples and exercises. The book employs a \""learning by doing\"" methodology. It explains simulation-input parameters and how-to-do analysis of the simulation output, in the process explaining building physics and energy simulation. Divided into three sections, it covers the fundamentals of energy simulation followed by advanced topics in energy simulation and simulation for compliance with bu.
