Dear all,
I am working on a project of a library. It is remodeled from a warehouse and has several rows of huge bookshelves inside.
I did the following:
1) I just modeled the warehouse itself, and then changed the furniture thermal mass factor, run the load calc.
2) I modeled the bookshelves in Component Modeler, assigned the construction, and successfully put them into the model in ModelIT.
Then I changed the furniture thermal mass factor, run the load calc.
The results from 1) and 2) are exactly the same. I am just wondering, are components included in load calc in IES? Or they are just for CFD and lighting simulation? If not, could anyone let me know where I can check the box to make a difference in load calc?
Thanks for your time in advance,
Wei
Are Components from Component Modeler included in Load Calc?
ApacheCalc – Heat loss/gain calculations using CIBSE procedures to determine design heating/cooling loads.
ApacheLoads – Design heating/cooling loads calculations using ASHRAE Heat Balance Method.
