Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] CFD



No. EnergyPlus is an energy analysis program and has no CFD capabilities. 

DesignBuilder makes CFD easier for you because it makes use of the geometry and other information that you've already entered - that's a nice advantage of the DB GUI. there may be a CFD package which can read E+ geometry, but I'm unaware of it.

Greetings,

Can I use EnergyPlus in CFD simulation as a stand alone program without using Designbuilder. 

Thank you very much

Choice. It is perhaps the most distinct and dignifying characteristic of humans. Consciously and with understanding, we choose what is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely ? or otherwise. Like the rest of humanity, my choices donâ??t always align with true, honorable, right, pure, and lovely, but I know those are what I set my sights upon. I choose them.
