[Bldg-sim] Modeling tool for daylight, Energy, Thermal comfort analysis

[Karen Walkerman]

... Or EnergyPlus.

It can evaluate thermal comfort parameters, or output mean radiant
temperatures and space temperatures so that you can do your own
calculations.

You can also get footcandles for daylighting (easily visualized with
openstudio results viewer)
