Gaiko,

 

Good afternoon.  We have used Energy Pro to model VRV systems. The
software is product specific because the operating algorithm for each
make/model of heat pump listed in the software menu is programmed into
the software.

You can certainly model a building using the software and provided your
baseline comparative building meets 90.1 requirements you can conduct a
comparison.

 

Hope this helps.

Tim

Has anyone used Energy Pro to model variable refrigerant flow systems?

 

The software looks like it is pretty product specific and I am wondering
if it can be used to model the entire building for LEED EAc1 purposes or
if it can only model the VRF system.  Any input would be appreciated.
