Research output: NREL › Technical Report

Abstract

This report will evaluate several building physics modeling tools to determine which are best suited for developing next-generation zoning technology. These modeling tools will be evaluated for their ability to predict room-level thermal loads, HVAC system operation, temperature and comfort predictions, and scalability. Any gaps in the existing tools will be identified and a path forward will be discussed.
