Take a look at the example files that come with EnergyPlus (C:\EnergyPlusV7-0-0\ExampleFiles, if you installed in the normal location). ExampleFiles.xls and ExampleFiles-ObjectsLink.xls list the features and objects, respectively, in each example.
Yes, EnergyPlus simulates boilers, pumps, etc.

Does energyplus simulate plant for example :Boiler , pump ,..( for example :in real system boiler and burner runs at its capacity and boilers and radiator come on and off during the day) if it simulates plant i can't find its result for example turn on and off boiler ?
by the way i know it simulate boiler and pump but i think they dont exactly simulate real boiler performance becuase in real system boiler works at it 's constant capacity and get on and off during the day and it performance 's is step distribution but in the simulation at output result we see heat generation gas doest'n have step distribution.
i'm looking forwary your answering
thanks in advance
