Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Adding a new module

[Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Theoretically, you could send the module to the developers
for review, but there are a few more steps that you would need to do
(documentation, example file, etc).

Collaborative developers or developers with access to source are the
third party ways we have done new developments.  Licensing details
can be found here:
http://apps1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/energyplus/energyplus_licensing.cfm

A collaborative developer has access to source code, the developer's
yahoo group, and other resources.  We also would discuss new
features at our twice monthly conference calls (including the developer)
and suggest changes, etc.  

Let me know if you wish to pursue this further (private email
preferred).

The only ways to implement something without access to source code is
either to make an EMS program internal to EnergyPlus simulation or
perhaps a module in BCVTB or MatLab using those facilities to link in
with the simulation.
