[Bldg-sim] Proposed Energy Modeling Conference - Your Input Requested

[James V Dirkes II, PE]

Dear Lynn,

 

Thanks for asking!

 

My vote goes to the topic "How do you know if your model is actually working
as intended?"  (in other words, diagnostic and verification practices)  Some
tools have extensive analysis capability and others seem not to.  Energy
Plus can report on almost anything you desire, while Trace 700 seems only
able to give summary reports.

 

Re: Location, Chicago is central, and vibrant - not a bad choice (especially
for someone form West Michigan!)

Subject: [Bldg-sim] Proposed Energy Modeling Conference - Your Input
Requested

 

ASHRAE is in the early planning stages of an Energy Modeling Conference for
the spring of 2011 that is targeted for consulting engineering
practitioners.  We are looking for input on the appropriate topics and/or
session types you would like to see at such a conference. Some topic
thoughts are: energy simulation, BIM, CFD and daylight modeling. 

 

What conference content would prompt you to travel and attend such a
conference? Please be as specific as possible in describing what you would
like covered at the conference. What do you want to learn? What location(s)
in the US would draw the largest attendance, in your opinion? 

 

Personal regards,
