Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Thermal performance

["Jim Dirkes jim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [EnergyPlus_Support]" <EnergyPlus_Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Balsam,

That would be a PhD thesis in itself.  I think you need to do some thinking and investigation, then choose a topic for further development.  What has your advisor recommended?

p.s., 

• You might start by Googling "residential building energy use", "residential thermal performance", "residential energy modeling". 
• ASHRAE and CIBSE very likely have research papers in their libraries or other publications.
  
• BeOpt is a residential-focussed GUI for EnergyPlus

Hi JimCould you please explain with more details and examples about many aspects of residential thermal performance.

Do you mean house's area, orientation. Coverage area, occupants, climate region???

My case study in iraq

Waiting 

 

Dear Balsam,

I think you'll find that:

1. There has been a lot of research on many aspects of residential thermal performance
2. You will have to be much more specific about your thesis topic n order for anyone to help give guidance.

Hi everyone...
I'm was wondering if there is anyone who has worked on conducting thermal performance in typical house. I need todo my phd project on this and I don't know how I can do that by E+.
I would be grateful for any advice or clarification.
With regards
Balsam
