Hello All,

We are excited to kick off the first half of BSUG! The first BSUG will be held on March 24th and will focus on radiant systems research by Carlos Duarte ? Postdoctoral Scholar UC Berkeley. The lecture will focus on a simulation study investigating the feasibility of coupling cooling towers/fluid coolers with high thermal mass radiant systems in US climates. Please see the newsletter below to sign up.

In addition, the second BSUG will take place on April 28th and be presented by Ian Molloy. Ian will be discussing the recent developments utilizing the same analytical model as Insight but EnergyPlus through OpenStudio for the engine. The remaining BSUG lectures will focus on the following topics:

Passive Design Strategies ? Climate Design Tools
Early Design Workflow
Data Visualization
LLLC?s Live Demo
Air Quality for Energy Efficiency

If you know someone who you think would be a good presenter, please let us know by emailing Dylan Agnes at dagnes at uidaho.edu
