AECOsim Energy Simulator

AECOsim Energy Simulator - Aspire to high performance buildings

 

Easily simulate and analyze building mechanical systems, environmental conditions, and energy performance. With AECOsim Energy Simulator you can achieve high performance buildings by increasing sustainability and consuming less energy.

 

  • Integration with EnergyPlus: Easily assess building designs incorporating EnergyPlus, a powerful industry standard simulation engine, to calculate building performance
  • Reporting and documentation: Quickly run simulations that generate documentation and reports that are ASHRAE Standard 90.1 compliant and LEED certified
  • Interoperability: Import building layouts directly from multiple file formats to easily reuse existing data without the need for third-party applications to interpret data

AECOsim Energy Simulator Capabilities

 

Analyze building energy
  • Design, simulate, and analyze building mechanical systems, environmental conditions, and energy performances. Create 2D/3D energy models and documentation and generate reports of peak loads, annual energy calculations, energy consumptions, carbon emissions, and fuel costs.
Comply with ASHRAE standard
  • Automated ASHRAE 90.1 comparisons let you know how your mechanical and energy design performs against industry standards. Generate reports that are ASHRAE 90.1 compliant and document the energy efficiency of design, materials, and equipment used.
Operate with industry-standard EnergyPlus
  • Incorporate the EnergyPlus simulation engine, the emerging standard for the industry developed by the U.S. Department of Energy. Determine building energy loads and explore building HVAC systems and design options by simulating and analyzing building energy performance.
Utilize CAD and BIM data for simulations
  • Eliminate the need to reinterpret data between different applications. Work seamlessly between industry CAD, BIM, and AEC applications such as MicroStation, AutoCAD, Revit, and others with support of multiple software platforms.
