From aaron.boranian at bigladdersoftware.com Tue Jul 2 08:30:00 2024 From: aaron.boranian at bigladdersoftware.com (Aaron Boranian) Date: Tue, 2 Jul 2024 09:30:00 -0600 Subject: [Bldg-sim] [TRAINING] LAST CALL | Modelkit Workshops | July 18-25, 2024 | Live Webinars Message-ID: *LAST CALL!!!* These live webinar workshops begin in *TWO WEEKS*. Big Ladder Software is pleased to announce that we are offering a new *live webinar* training series for Modelkit! The training series will include our *Modelkit* for *EnergyPlus* workshop from *July 18-25*. *Visit our training platform to register* *https://training.bigladdersoftware.com/ * *See our other upcoming workshops:* - *EnergyPlus* for Practitioners (Denver, CO | August 6-7, 2024) - *EnergyPlus* EMS Controls ( Denver, CO | August 8, 2024) *Modelkit* for *EnergyPlus* *Webinar Dates: *July 18-25, 2024 (one webinar per week on Thursday) *Time*: Start each webinar at 8:30 and end at 11 AM or 11:30 AM each (US Pacific Time) *Price: *$395 USD per person *Workshop Description* *This workshop should be a prerequisite for anyone planning to work with EnergyPlus DEER prototypes .* This workshop teaches you to use the *Modelkit * framework developed by Big Ladder Software for generating *EnergyPlus *input files. We cover the basics of how *Modelkit* uses the *Ruby* programming language in combination with a library of templates to highlight the benefits of these features. We then describe the process of templates being combined together in order to compose the *EnergyPlus* input file, and how parametric values can be set in one template and passed to another. For example, changing an HVAC system type from ?CAV? to ?VAV? would require changing a single parameter ? the templates are pre-configured to update EnergyPlus object types, inlet/outlet node connections, and other details accordingly. Next, we cover Big Ladder Software?s *Modelkit* Flannel framework that simplifies parametric analysis by allowing users to set parametric values in multiple CSV files and use *Modelkit* to automatically compose and simulate EnergyPlus input files, as well as compare user-specified results between simulations. By the end of the workshop, you should be comfortable with creating and simulating *EnergyPlus* input files using *Modelkit*. Demonstrations and hands-on exercises will be used extensively throughout to generate models with a range of energy-efficiency measures and HVAC system configurations. *Previous experience with EnergyPlus is recommended but not required.* Regards, Aaron Boranian (he/him/his) Senior Building Simulation Engineer & Director of Training Services Big Ladder Software LLC 808.895.1741 <+1808-895-1741> 1624 Market St, Suite 304, Denver, CO 80202 bigladdersoftware.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
