In order to remain on the cutting edge, MA Engineers recently procured IES Virtual Environment (IESVE) dynamic modeling software to use on our more complex, sustainable projects. Typical energy and HVAC modeling software is used on text-based data input, and does not provide a truly dynamic real-world approach to energy modeling.
This tool helps clients understand the benefits of sustainable design on their specific projects, and is also used as we assess our HVAC energy savings strategies in-house on a project-by-project basis. Radiant/Operative Temperature Controls into Building Energy Simulations. Impact Partners have the expertise and familiarity with the products and systems to measure, control, and automate the various decisions needed each hour to maintain the desired temperature in all levels of the building. When the HVAC portion of the simulation begins its solution for the current. MA Engineers uses EnergyPro, the California standard in energy modeling software, to determine total design energy savings on all our projects–LEED or otherwise. Expertise in HVAC Facility Operations Large buildings require solutions that allow for efficient and comfortable heating, cooling, and ventilation. As such, we have used energy modeling on all LEED projects. Numerous LEED credits require comprehensive energy modeling to assess point awards. A free copy of HVACSIM+ can be downloaded from the. The modular approach is based upon the methodology used in the TRNSYS program. LEED has become a prevalent industry benchmarking tool and MA Engineers has expanded our scope of services to include detailed energy modeling. The main program of HVACSIM+ (HVAC SIMulation PLUS other systems) employs a hierarchical, modular approach and advanced equation solving techniques to perform dynamic simulations of building/HVAC/control systems.
