[Bldg-sim] Energy Model Cost (Demba Ndiaye)

I would be careful of only assuming an extra 40 hours to model the baseline
model (Appendix G) and complete the LEED documentation. Assembling the
documentation for the multiple rotations and comparing the proposed design
isn't a simple quick task. I would schedule somewhere in the 64-80 hour
range to model the baseline and complete the documentation, possibly more if
they expect you to model more than once (at different stages of design/etc).

>
> Transsolar develops and validate concepts for high quality environments
> that require minimal energy use. To achieve this we work collaboratively
> within the design team from the start of the design process, considering
> each step from the standpoint of fundamental thermodynamics. This
> generates a climate concept in which form, material, and mechanical

> is integral to the architectural concept.

> We use a wide variety of complex computer simulation tools to evaluate
> our concepts, developing unique analytical methods based on a deep
> understanding of engineering physics. We perform dynamic thermal
> simulation using TRNSYS to develop and validate appropriate, reliable
> concepts in relationship to the complex set of factors that is unique to
> each project. Similarly, we perform daylight simulations using RADIANCE
> and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) using FLUENT.
>
> Transsolar engineers are often specialized in their work, but all carry
> out a broad range of tasks. Responsibilities for this position include:
>  - Development of climate and energy concepts in response to local
> climate, site, architectural, and programmatic requirements
>  - Development, testing and validation of concepts via TRNSYS
>  - Engineering analysis via EES, hand calculation, spreadsheet
> analysis, and other engineering analysis tools
>  - Programming of new simulation and analysis tools in TRNSYS, EES, and
> spreadsheets
>  - Internal coordination with other simulation specialists, synthesis,
> and communication of overall analysis results
>  - Graphical representation of climate concepts and complex engineering
> analysis
>  - Writing reports and correspondence
>  - Participation in meetings and design charettes
>  - Collaboration with German Transsolar offices
>  - Domestic and international travel to project meetings and sites
>
> Engineers with an emphasis on dynamic thermal simulation are our highest
