Institute of Technology, Chicago [May 26-28]
Dear
Fellow simulators,
Illinois
Institute of Technology, Chicago is hosting 3-Days DesignBuilder Workshop from
May 26-28. This full 3-days course is being offered for the first time in
North America.
The
workshop is being lead by Dr Mahabir Bhandari of DesignBuilder Software (USA)
and Dr. Paul Carey of Zero Energy Design (UK). Both personnel have
extensive experience in the use and teaching of building energy simulation
programs.
The course is aimed at new and less experienced
DesignBuilder simulation users. After this course, trainees will be able to:
ü Enter building geometry either from
scratch or from DXF, or other floor plan data, making best use of the
DesignBuilder productivity features.
ü Enter data on activity, building
constructions, glazing, and solar shading, schedules of building operation,
lighting systems and HVAC systems.
ü Create components and templates and
import/export these between projects.
- Understand the various model options.
ü Size heating and cooling systems using
EnergyPlus.
ü Run EnergyPlus simulations using real
weather data and check building energy consumption, CO2 emissions, occupant
comfort etc.
ü Carry out daylighting and natural
ventilation analyses.
ü Work with Simple HVAC (Compact HVAC is
not covered in detail).
ü Export EnergyPlus IDF data for use
outside DesignBuilder (the course does not cover working with EnergyPlus IDF
data in detail)
ü Set up external CFD analyses from site
data and internal analyses from models incorporating assemblies, run CFD
simulations and review results. Understand how to set up models that will
provide converged results.
Registration
fee is $600.00. The attendees will get a fully functional 90 days
evaluation copy of DesignBuilder. For more information and registration:
