working on a study. It is about the dynamic facades (building automation) . One
of the façade feature which I’m trying to test is the automated louvers
which has a control which is connected to the HVAC and lighting system. I am trying
to test this feature in a certain weather. Does anybody know an energy
simulation tool that can make such simulations? Due to my architectural background,
I would prefer if it is a graphic user friendly interface to a simulation
engine.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
