Where should the funds for a building be invested? In the HVAC or the
building envelope? In a better window U-Value or a better window shade
system? Arguably, the most design-altering application of energy modeling
in today's world is sensitivity analysis, which helps answer these early
design questions by testing the relative importance of competing
variables. This session will show how to answer these questions in early
design with the setup of small parametric energy models in
Ladybug+Honeybee. Participants will learn how to automate the simulating of
all combinations of these parameters and will visualize results in two
interfaces: the open source web platform, Design Explorer, and the
standalone desktop software, Tableau.
About the Presenter
Chris Mackey is a building scientist and designer at Payette Architects as
well as a recent graduate of MIT?s Masters of Architecture and Masters of
Science in Building Technology
programs. His completed thesis involved the development of software to
produce high-resolution thermal comfort maps of buildings off of EnergyPlus
results as well as a new suite of spatial thermal comfort metrics that
mirror those currently used to quantify daylight.
SKILLS & TOPICS: Chris has intimate knowledge of the following languages /
software: Python, Grasshopper, Rhino (incl. RhinoCommon), EnergyPlus,
OpenStudio. In his free time,
Chris is an avid contributor to the Ladybug + Honeybee environmental
analysis plugins for grasshopper and is currently in the process of
building a new ?insect? to link these two plugins and the Rhino/Grasshopper
interface to macro-scale climate modeling engines and data sets.
