modelBuildingSpawnZ6
Six-zone EnergyPlus building model based on URBANopt GeoJSON export, with distribution pumps
Extends from Buildings.DHC.Loads.BaseClasses.PartialBuilding.
Information
This is a simplified six-zone building model based on an EnergyPlus
building envelope model.
It was generated from translating a GeoJSON model specified within the URBANopt UI.
The heating and cooling loads are computed with a four-pipe
fan coil unit model derived from
Buildings.DHC.Loads.BaseClasses.PartialTerminalUnit
and connected to the room model by means of fluid ports. The Attic zone
is unconditionned, with a free floating temperature.
