LBNL releases EnergyPlusToFMU version 1.0.0.
EnergyPlusToFMU is a software package written in Python which allows users
to export the building simulation program EnergyPlus version 8.0 or higher
as a Functional Mock-up Unit (FMU) for co-simulation using the Functional
Mock-up Interface (FMI) standard version 1.0. This FMU can then be imported
into
a variety of simulation programs that support the import of the Functional
Mock-up Interface for co-simulation. This capability allows for instance to
model the envelope
of a building in EnergyPlus, export the model as an FMU, import and link the
model with an HVAC system model developed in a system simulation tool such
as the Modelica environment Dymola.
