ENERGY-10™:
A Powerful Energy Simulation Tool for Buildings and Homes
Version 1.8
ENERGY-10™
software is a powerful design tool that analyzes and
illustrates the energy and cost savings that can be achieved
through more than a dozen sustainable design strategies. Hourly
energy simulations help you quantify, assess, and clearly depict
the benefits of daylighting, passive solar heating, natural
ventilation, well-insulated envelopes, better windows, lighting
systems, mechanical equipment, and more.
Version 1.8
offers many new features: a Photovoltaic module that
provides the ability to model and simulate the performance of a
PV system; a Solar Domestic Hot Water module provides a
new solar domestic/service hot water modeling capability; and a
new library ("ASHRAELIB") defining constructions (wall, roof,
window, etc.) as spelled out in ASHRAE 90.1-2004. The CD-Rom
includes ENERGY-10™ Version 1.8 software,
Mastering ENERGY-10™ User Manual (PDF) and Version 1.8
Installation Manual (PDF).
