*Workshop Description*
*This workshop should be a prerequisite for anyone planning to work
with EnergyPlus DEER prototypes
This workshop teaches you to use the *Modelkit
Big Ladder Software for generating *EnergyPlus *input files. We cover the
basics of how *Modelkit* uses the *Ruby* programming language in
combination with a library of templates to highlight the benefits of these
features. We then describe the process of templates being combined together
in order to compose the *EnergyPlus* input file, and how parametric values
can be set in one template and passed to another. For example, changing an
HVAC system type from ?CAV? to ?VAV? would require changing a single
parameter ? the templates are pre-configured to update EnergyPlus object
types, inlet/outlet node connections, and other details accordingly.
Next, we cover Big Ladder Software?s *Modelkit* Flannel framework that
simplifies parametric analysis by allowing users to set parametric values
in multiple CSV files and use *Modelkit* to automatically compose and
simulate EnergyPlus input files, as well as compare user-specified results
between simulations.
By the end of the workshop, you should be comfortable with creating and
simulating *EnergyPlus* input files using *Modelkit*. Demonstrations and
hands-on exercises will be used extensively throughout to generate models
with a range of energy-efficiency measures and HVAC system configurations.
*Previous experience with EnergyPlus is recommended but not required.*
