Geof,

There's the PNNL ASHRAE model set that you could reference:

http://www.energycodes.gov/development/commercial/90.1_models

My opinion: I did take a look at this around 6 months ago and the model EUI results seemed a little low, but it's a great resource nonetheless.

Subject: [Bldg-sim] Need 'realistic' Building Models for E+

Hi Bldg-sim community,

I am currently doing some work on EnergyPlus with the goal of speeding it up.  My background is in Computer Science.

I'm looking for realistic models that I can input to E+ to help me understand the areas that need improvement and to better focus my efforts.

Do any of you have any large scale / realistic inputs for EnergyPlus that I could use?  I will keep them confidential within the E+ development team.


Many thanks --
