Dynamic insulation and PCMs

[masouds66]

Hi there


I was wondering if IES has the ability of simulating dynamic insulation and phase change materials? could you please let me know how can I find/use it?


Thanks,
Masoud

As standard, no I don't think that is something IES models, however...

I think Monodraught are working on a plugin for IES which will allow modelling of their "Cool Phase" PCM system but I cannot find it on the IES website so it might not be available yet. I'd suggest speaking to the IES support dept for more information.

Many thanks. Do you know how can I contact them?

Monodraught have mentioned this plug-in to me also. The guy was adamant it had been released but I've not heard anything from IES.

Hello. Steve from Monodraught here. Just to let you know that Cool-phase is now available in the performance component feature, which is available as part of the IES-VE Pro 2013 Feature pack 1 release.

Download available here:

We have written a modelling procedure guide which I can send to you if you contact me at steve.barrett@monodraught.com
