I have used IDA ICE in a number of projects, mostly offices and public
buildings from about 1000 to 55000 m? and found that the tool is extremely
efficient and easy to use. The greatest concern is that it lack some of
the more advanced HVAC models found in Energy Plus and that the larger
models take a very long time to simulate (it took 11 h to run a yearly
simulation with VAV and 80 thermal zones).
