Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] need clarification





A version of EnergyPlus is included with DesignBuilder -- no need to download separately.
 
EnergyPlus by itself does not automatically produce graphs.  You will need to contruct those from the data or use  a program like DesignBuilder.
 
DesignBuilder can write EnergyPlus input files (IDF) but does not read them (and cannot use the results from EP-Launch, IDFEditor, etc.).

1.is it not necessary to down load e+ to use design builder?

2.does design builder is enough to make the design and simulation of energy efficent building,and give the result in the form of simulation,graph, ....

3.does energy plus with out design builder is enough  to make the design and simulation of energy efficent building,and give the result in the form of simulation,graph with out design builder?,... .
