Nathan Kegel (IES), and Shona ODea (DLR) will give the second IBPSA-Chicago seminar, where they will be integrating case studies of using various IES VE tools into the demo of the new features of the software. In addition to talking about energy modeling, they are to give examples of thermal comfort modeling, natural ventilation modeling, and heat stress modeling in a multi-building environment. They will also cover daylight modeling, CFD, code compliance (including an overview of the new Title 24 requirements in California), LEED, and detailed climate analysis.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">This event will be broadcasted via GoTo Meeting. Information will be emailed to Web Attendees.</div>
