Versions of Energy-10 input / output that model our design process for the Green Garage

V1.0 - Existing

  • Inputs
    • Existing walls, floors, roof, windows (none)
    • Existing heating system
    • No Cooling
    • Default lighting and other uses assuming office and warehouse uses
    • Zone 1 = Historic Building (8,721sf)
    • Zone 2 = Addition (2,720sf)
    • Refinements (since initial run)
      • Wall sizes
  • Outputs

V2.0 - New Envelope (Heating only)

  • Inputs
    • New Envelop walls, floors, roof
    • Windows: U = .27
    • Heating = Gas radiant heaters
    • No Cooling
    • Ventilation??? (How does Energy-10 simulate the ventilation of space?)
    • Default Lighting and Other Energy assuming office and warehouse uses
    • Zone 1 = Historic Building (8,721sf)
    • Zone 2 = Addition (2,720sf)
    • Refinements (since initial run)
      • Wall sizes
      • WWF% using Laura's numbers


V2.5 - New Envelope (Heating only - New Furnance)

  • Inputs
    • New Envelope walls, floors, roof
    • Windows: U = .27
    • Heating = Gas furnace upgrade (Eliminates any distortion due to existing heaters)
    • No Cooling
    • Default Lighting and Other Energy assuming office and warehouse uses
    • Zone 1 = Historic Building (8,721sf)
    • Zone 2 = Addition (2,720sf)
    • Refinements (since initial run)
      • Wall sizes
      • WWF% using Laura's numbers


V2.7 - New Envelope (Analysis of Cooling)

  • Inputs
    • New Envelope walls, floors, roof
    • Windows: U = .27
    • Heating = Gas furnace / DX Cooling
    • Default Lighting and Other Energy assuming office and warehouse uses
    • Zone 1 = Historic Building (8,721sf)
    • Zone 2 = Addition (2,720sf)
  • Analysis
  1. Examine Solar Gain - use window shading to block solar gain
  2. Examine heat from lighting - eliminate internal lighting
  3. Examine heat from other internal sources - eliminate other sources
  4. Try running simulation under "Free Run" which is the building without HVAC, ventilation, internal gains
  • Refinements
      • Wall sizes
      • WWF% using Laura's numbers
  • Outputs

V3.0 - New Envelope (Heating and Cooling)

  • Inputs
    • New Envelop walls, floors, roof
    • Windows: U = .27
    • Heating = Gas furnace upgrade (Eliminates any distortion due to existing heaters)
    • Cooling = Standard AC unit
    • Ventilation??? (How does Energy-10 simulate the ventilation of space?)
    • Default lighting and other uses assuming office and warehouse uses
    • Zone 1 = Historic Building (8,721sf)
    • Zone 2 = Addition (2,720sf)
    • Refinements (since initial run)
      • Wall sizes
      • WWF% using Laura's numbers
  • Outputs

V4.0 Lighting

  • Inputs
    • New Envelop walls, floors, roof
    • Windows: U = .27 (Finalize window specification)
    • Heating = Gas furnace upgrade (Eliminates any distortion due to existing heaters)
    • Cooling = Standard AC unit
    • Lighting
      • Include Skylight for Solatube
    • Zone 1 = Historic Building (8,721sf)
    • Zone 2 = Addition (2,720sf)
    • Refinements (since initial run)
  • Outputs
