Building Energy Simulation Test for Existing Homes (BESTEST-EX) Methodology: Preprint

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

The test suite represents a set of cases applying the new Building Energy Simulation Test for Existing Homes (BESTEST-EX) Methodology developed by NREL. (Judkoff et al. 2010a). The NREL team developed the test cases in consultation with the home retrofit industry (BESTEST-EX Working Group 2009), and adjusted the test specifications in accordance with information supplied by a participant withaccess to large utility bill datasets (Blasnik 2009).
