Interface EnergyPlus and BIM
Dear E+ users,
Does anyone know any project/research related to develop a interface for
EnergyPlus to be used in Building Informtaiton Modelling (BIM) or to develop
IFC converters to EnergyPlus?
Thanks for any help.
Regards,
Alberto Hernandez Neto

Hello
Hers an idea:
1- run the simulation with only the zone of the control;
2- take the control zone tempreture and schedule it to the other zones and
run the simulation again.
Problems:
Yes, you lose the influce of adjacente, heated, zones on your control zone,
but I don´t thinck it´s to significant.
