Energianalys mellan programmen IES (Integrated Environmental Solutions) och Enorm

An increase interest of new methods and tools has begun to grow in the real estate business, this new trend causes an increase in new programs that aim to simplify processes of energy-efficiency and environmental issues.After consulting with Björn Alsmark from Bjerking AB, an architect and engineering company, we made a decision that the Degree Project is going to examine the program IES (Integrated Environmental Solutions) with some integrations from Revit Architecture application.To be able to examine IES, we got access to a completed project from Bjerking. The project is a nursery school in Uppsala. An application has been handed in from Bjerking to make this project to a Green Building-certificated project. According to Bjerking own calculations (with the energy-calculation program Enorm), the consumption of energy of the nursery school is 48 percent lesser than required by BBR.An evaluation of IES and Enorm has been made with an aim to compare these two programs and find out if IES is an appropriate program to replace Enorm. Does Enorm or IES come up to BBR´s recommendations?The Degree Project cover 15 ECT, that required several adjusting and delimitations, and the study sketch ended with a literature study.After finishing the study sketch the modeling of the nursery school began. The model was adjusted in Revit Architecture so that it would suit IES. But complications appeared when the Revit model was about to be transferred into IES. Instead of using Revit, we simplified the model by using IES own modeling application, ModelIT.A study of the sun was made in SunCast to be able to get a study of the suns solar shading on the building, also the sun effect. The result from SunCast was later used in the energy-calculation in ApacheSim. A ventilation scheme was also designed in ApHVAC.The result showed that the IES VE is suitable for energy modeling and that there is space for improvement over the integration between the IES VE and Revit.
