Dear all,
I have to prepare a short presentation for a bunch of BSc students
(civil engineering) who might be interested in learning about building
energy simulations during their studies.
Do you know where I could find some basic teaching material in order
to have some inspiration for my presentation?
Thanks.
All the Best,
Alessandro
Alessandro,
Here are some webinars about energy modeling: http://seventhwave.org/education/webinars
Select "energy modeling" under "Filter by topic."

And if your course is looking at the range of approaches taken in whole-building simulation
tools they could go to the following link for the tool comparison web site that Dru Crawley
and I am working on (Note: this is work-in-progress):
http://contrasting.no-ip.org/Contrast/Index.html
And a slightly expanded view of one of the tools compared (ESP-r) can been seen here:
http://contrasting.no-ip.org/ESP-r_tour/Index.html
And there is a general discussion about how to plan simulation models that are
fit-for-purpose and discussions about levels of detail and selection of boundary
conditions and understanding performance predictons in the Strategies document
link below. It uses ESP-r for worked examples of issues that impact most simulation users.

PS if these web sites are unresponsive email jon at esru.strath.ac.uk so I can
give the server a wake-up kick.
