ProgramControl is used to do a single E+ simulations by using multiple threads or cores. This is difference from my case. I need to run independent simulations, each simulation will use one core.
It is not different from your case. All simulations for EnergyPlus are "independent" -- though they may be running concurrently on different windows.That is what you are doing -- running more than one simulation on the same computer at the same time.
"This multithreading may not be desireable when running more than one simulation at a time on the same
computer (because it can actually run more slowly). "
Did you try ProgramControl,1;?
