Hi All, Are baseline building rotations necessary for a new building that is connected to an existing building. Note that the new building is being modeled as a stand alone.

R- value of different assemblies in building (conditioned) cannot be averaged. Why?? Only U-value, C-Factors can averaged.again Why??

Hi Guys, I am a energy simulation engineer. Now I have a project which uses the district steam supplied by the local government as heat source.

I am modeling a LEED building that includes a snow melt system. The system is served by the building's hot water boiler.

We are performing a review of an energy model for a project that is a major remodel of an existing space with addition of new square footage.

We are using Visual DOE 4.2 software for energy modeling and we are doing one LEED NC project, the project team is planning to do the automatic sensor control window shading device, and how to take

Question: Does the HVAC system for the baseline have to be the same type as the proposed design HVAC equipment? (ie.
