Simergy Public Beta 2 posted
A second public beta version of the Simergy free graphical user interface for EnergyPlus has been posted at http://simergy-beta.lbl.gov/. Key features of Simergy include:
- Comprehensive and Loop Level HVAC System Templates for typical and high performance systems
- Drag and drop component-level editing of HVAC systems to adapt templates and build custom systems
- Geometry options:
- import of building geometry from 3D CAD/BIM using IFC or gbXML
- build custom geometry from 2D plans (dwg/dxf) or draw free form and extrude vertically
- build your own geometry from base shapes
- Management of multiple design alternatives
- Pre-defined reports and interactive visualization of EnergyPlus output
- Training and support documentation including links to EnergyPlus documentation.It is worth going through the 1 page Essential Reading included as part of the installation before using Simergy.
Contest!
To encourage beta-testers to report issues, we have organized a contest with iPad 4's as prizes (donated by Simergy Development Partner Trane) for the contestants who document the greatest number of issues. Details will be emailed shortly to people who register as beta testers.
Our thanks to all who have expressed interest in Simergy, particularly to those who have volunteered to be beta-testers.
