Looking for an expert who can assist in conducting broad, building performance simulations. The simulations are daylighting, thermal comfort, solar, lighting, HVAC, and renewable energy.
1. I'll have to add sunshades on the western and southern facades and then run simulations for daylighting,
2. Adding Double glazed Window with White Aluminum Metal cladding and Indoor plants and then running simulations
3. No change just run solar, lighting and hvac simulations.
4. Add 12 panels with 1800watts capacity and do the simulation.
what do I need:
- Analysis of each simulation mentioned previously. About the current condition of the building and its performance.
- Pictures of each simulation after applying my proposed solution to the building.
- Compare the building’s performance results before and after in a table.
-A simple report on that.
- In two days
Step 1: Define Building Geometry: • Input the building's geometry, such as the number of floors, rooms, and other relevant details. Step 2: Define Building Envelope: • Specify the construction details of walls, roofs, floors, windows, and doors. Define materials and their properties. Step 3: Define HVAC Systems: • Specify the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems for the building. This includes setting up air handling units, chillers, boilers, and other HVAC components. Step 4: Define Lighting Systems: • Input information about the lighting systems in the building. Specify the type of lighting fixtures and their controls. Step 5: Define Other Systems: • Specify other systems such as water heating, renewable energy sources, and any other components affecting energy consumption. Step 6: Set Simulation Parameters: • Define simulation parameters, such as weather data, occupancy schedules, and other simulation settings. Step 7: Run the Simulation: • Once all the necessary information is input, run the simulation to analyze the energy performance of the building. Step 8: Review Results: • After the simulation is complete, review the results to understand the energy consumption, demand, and other relevant information. Equest provides various reports and graphs for analysis. Step 9: Update the model based on your requirements: • add sunshades on the western and southern facades and then run simulations for daylighting • Adding Double glazed Window with White Aluminum Metal cladding and Indoor plants • Add 12 panels with 1800watts capacity Step 10: Analyze the result based on the received output in the software simulation Step 11: Prepare the table based on the comparison the based model and updated model
