[Bldg-sim] Bldg-sim Digest, Vol 95, Issue 2

[K Gowri]

Hi Chris:



I work with the Green Building Studio development team and would be happy
to address any issues you may have with using the energy analysis
features.  Weather data is available for most locations across the world,
and both SI/IP units are supported.  However, there are no support for UK
building codes, though ASHRAE 90.1-2010 baseline is created for Energy Cost
Range analysis.



We are currently providing export of EnergyPlus IDF (version 8.3) of Revit
models.  You can use EnergyPlus cloud to perform annual simulations and
zone loads summary for equipment sizing.  Revit 2016 includes automatic
zoning features (core/perimeter) which you will find a significant
improvement if you are exporting gbXML.



Please feel free to contact me directly at Krishnan.gowri at autodesk.com, if
you have any other questions.
