ApacheSim history and development

[Roof]

Hi All,

I am an MSc student currently completing a masters dissertation. I will be using IES and would like to find out a bit more about its development, particularly what method it uses to run energy simulations. I have heard that it uses the factor response method (as apposed to finite difference equations) but I would like to validate this and get an idea of the principles behind the factor response method.

Any help, particularly being pointed to sources of information, would be much appreciated!

Regards
