Re: [Ibpsausa] [Bldg-sim] Survey of Simulation programs used inHVAC education programs across the US



Jeff,
While you're at it, it would also be interesting to know how many
courses are using BESTEST as a teaching tool. I have anecdotal evidence
that a number of professors in Europe and the US use BESTEST in
connection with simulation to sharpen student's intuition regarding
building physics and HVAC effects.

University of Arizona
Collge of Architecture and Landscape architecture (CALA)
Professor: N. Chalfoun, Ph.D.

1.  Arc 461d-561d Advanced Computer Energy Analysis (Fall):  This course
uses E-10 for performance prediction and load sizing of residential
buildings (previously used CalPas-3)

2.  Arc 461e-561e "Sustainable Design and the LEED Initiative" (Spring):
  this course uses eQUEST for performance prediction, load sizing and
LEED certification for commercial buildings.

Jeff, I hope this info is useful,

Thank you

Nader
