which do not impact other end uses such as exterior lighting or domestic hot
water.  If the cooling central plant can be completely isolated and you can
demonstrate that the loads placed on it are exactly the same in both models then
it may be allowed.  In order to do this with a high degree of accuracy you may have
to build virtually the same model in both versions of the software.  You would also
need to very thoroughly explain your modeling procedures and calculations.  By
the time you did all that my guess is that you would be better off just
submitting the whole model in eQUEST instead of justifying the combination.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

scenario you suggest and would likely scrutinize it to a significantly higher
degree compared to all calculations in one model.  As I understand it IES-VE
does not yet model water cooled systems very well so I might suggest that it is
simply not an appropriate modeling tool to use for this particular project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:navy'>I tried out IES-VE a few months or a year ago with some people
because the potential for this type of integration seemed very exciting.&nbsp;
However, we found the HVAC side to be pretty basic.&nbsp; For a lot of building
types, there are significant savings to be had by changing HVAC control schemes
and/or configurations and using HVAC types that were not well-represented in
IES-VE the last time I saw it.&nbsp; It seemed like a great interface to use if
you were trying to design a building to use minimal energy due to envelope,
orientation, natural ventilation, etc.&nbsp; In other words, it seems strong on
the loads calculation side.&nbsp; On the system use side, though, it seemed a
lot more limited than DOE2 or EnergyPlus.&nbsp; For that reason, I have also
stuck with the multiple-tools method.&nbsp; I agree with all who wrote that it
would be wonderful to have one integrated tool in the future!&nbsp; Rob does
bring up an interesting point about the resolution of spaces needed for
daylighting vs. thermal vs. architectural modeling.&nbsp; Architects especially
have to be so detailed in their models that I&#8217;ve often just ended up
using the floor plans they provided, deleting a bunch of elements out of those,
and scaling wall heights and windows.&nbsp; Other than that, their 3D models
only serve to help me visualize the building myself.&nbsp; It would be nice if
we didn&#8217;t end up tripling the effort like we all do now, but so far I
don&#8217;t see a great way around it (unless you don&#8217;t need complex
system modeling &#8211; then you could use IES-VE as discussed below).</span><span

<p class=MsoNormal>Amen brother! &nbsp;Another issue is that while the energy
model has to include the total building -- all spaces and systems -- to be a
complete picture of the energy use, a Radiance-based daylight model does not
necessarily require all the spaces to be modeled simultaneously. &nbsp;Indeed,
the accuracy of the ambient calculation is directly affected by the maximum
size of the scene, and so conducting a simultaneous daylight simulation of an
entire building at an acceptably rigorous ambient resolution can be -- is
generally -- time-prohibitive.<span lang=FR><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>As mentioned in a recent thread on this list, Thomas
Bleicher's &quot;su2rad&quot; plugin for SketchUp can export a SU model to
Radiance format and there is also an E+ plugin to allow one to use the same SU
model for E+ analysis; in theory, these three components (SketchUp, su2rad and
the E+ plugin) allow for a &quot;single model&quot; approach to energy and
daylight modeling. However, because the su2rad exporter wants to take the
entire model and create a single Radiance scene description, that creates the
aforementioned problem of the ambient calculation getting out of hand fairly
quickly. &nbsp;I suppose through intelligent layering and model structuring,
one could create a model that could be exported to Radiance in &quot;space
components&quot;, but I'm not sure if this is compatible with the E+ plugin's
layering/model organization requirements.<span lang=FR><o:p></o:p></span></p>
