DOE sponsored a lot work of this sort in 2009.  Here are links to related
studies on some other types of buildings.

Hi All,

 

Just an FYI on a recent publication (Sept. 09) available for free online:

 

"Technical Support Document: 50% Energy Savings Design Technology Packages
for Medium Office Buildings"

http://www.pnl.gov/main/publications/external/technical_reports/PNNL-18774.p

I just glanced through it (138 page document - 1.2MB file) but I see a lot
of good stuff on efficient design and energy modeling.

Good explanations on modeling baseline and proposed models using ASHRAE
Standard 90.1, with specifics on radiant heating and cooling,

DOAS, VAV and many of the ECMs that would typically be considered for an
energy-efficient design.

 

There are lots of tips for EnergyPlus users, since that's what was used for
the modeling, but much of the document applies to anyone modeling

ASHRAE 90.1 baselines and subsequent conservation measures.

 

Cheers,

Bill
