[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Speeding up E+ simulation time with ruby script.

So...does this mean the building is warmed up enough to not consider the long term thermal mass changes?

Personally I want to use this script to get a quick idea of where the model is at during development.. A full single simulation should be done for LEED or other compliance work, but if I can wrap some other functions to merge the .eso, csv, html files that would be more useful.

P.
