Hi, all

I had tried the simulation using both DesignBuilder and eQuest.
The results showed the difference between them is tiny.

DB   Heating 8.88kW   Cooling 3.66kW
eQ   Heating 8.73kW   Cooling 3.04kW

Best regards.

Felipe and David,

Simulating the same model proposed by David in DesingBuilder, I have the following result:

Heating            8,99 Kw.
Cooling            2,44 Kw.


Kind Regards,


Rodrigo Perez.

David,

I made a mistake and I simulated with esp-r using London Climate.
The rectified cooling and heating loads using CHL_Santiago_IWEC.epw for the 1 zone 10x10x3 concrete box are:

IES_VE 14,66 kW (heating) 5.27 kW (cooling)
ESP-r 8,029 kW (heating) 2,24 kW (cooling)

Felipe,
I'd like to start with your 'a zone of 10 x 10 x 3 mt. high with no ventilation and no internal gains' model which is an excellent case to evaluate the fundamental algorithms.

Please provide info of that model likewise.

Having worked at IES-VE for 8+ years and coded part of Apache-sim and the whole of macroflo, it is interesting to see how it works from user's point of view.

5. Run Period: 1/1 31/12 (whole year)

6. Internal gains: Occupancy 6 m2/person (70 W Sensible, 35 W latent), Lighting 8 W/m2, Equipment 5 W7m2. All the time for the whole year, including nights, weekends, etc.

Describe your model we'll run DOE2 and EnergyPlus to see who's right.

Leen,

I am working with the EPW climate file of Santiago de Chile in both soft wares. I ve modelled a zone of 10 x 10 x 3 mt. high with no ventilation and no internal gains. The results are:

ESP-r = 11.9 (heating), 1.86 (cooling)
IES = 14.6 (heating), 5.2 (cooling)

Now we got great differences in the cooling load. IES gave me 3 times more cooling loads than ESP-r

Any ideas how to go proceed?

Felipe,

set you climate to some artifical constant climqte with constant temperature, constant solar radiation,... That is one more set of variables excluded

Dear Samuel and Leen,

Actually, when I found out such big differences I ve modelled a very simple 3-zone model and the differences persist.

I will try out with a simple box without ventilation and internal gains and I will let you know the results.

Thank you all for your help.

Try reducing your model complexity by modelling just one zone with minimal
information possible. Simulate for just one day. If the two softwares compare
well keep building up the model in complexity.

Dear All,
I am modeling in both ESP-r and IES-VE and office building and the results
for heating and cooling loads are very different.

 ESP-r = 269 kW (heating); 237 kW (cooling)
IES-VE = 835 kW (Heating); 360 kW (cooling)

 Does anyone had a similar experience with such differences?
