[Bldg-sim] Proposed Energy Modeling Conference - YourInput Requested

[Fareed Syed]

Hello Lynn,

 

Here is what I would be interested:

1.       Comparison of Energy simulation results with the actual
results. 

2.       What are the common hand calculations that an energy modeler
needs to do to verify the results?

3.       What are the most commonly type of problems energy modelers
face and how to tackle it when the software is unable to do it?

4.       What should one do when there is no weather data available for
a specific location?

5.       Impact of path followed by sun for various regions. 

 

I would say if you can plan for NY, or Vegas to bring in huge audience.
Reason being people like to have fun after attending such conference.

 

Thanks

Lynn, 

 

I tend to think that messages posted on Friday afternoons get generally
unnoticed. However, this is an interesting proposal. 

 

Regarding topics, it would be interesting to have some real cases where
modeling results of new buildings are compared with utility bills
obtained 1 or 2 years after construction, and lessons to learn from
that.

 

As for  location, D.C., N.Y. or California seem right.

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,

 

Lynn G. Bellenger, PE, FASHRAE
