Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] EnergyPlus Capabilities
EnergyPlus has two moisture storage models:
1. The moisture transfer functions (MTF) models both moisture storage
and transport. Because this model uses fixed material properties, it
is currently only suitable for short term simulations in a limited
range of conditions. Next year, the capabilities of this model will
be expanded to allow for more variations in properties.
2. The effecive mean penetration depth (EMPD) model simulates
moisture storage only. It is effective at modeling the cyclical
absroption and release of moisture.
EnergyPlus has an air-to-air heat recovery component capable of
modeling both sensible and latent energy transfer.
Source code is available by executing a Collaborative Developer's
license at a cost of US$250. For more licensing information, please
