<HTML><BODY>Hi Ian<br /><br />look for the "model context - integrated performance view" (ipv) menu. This allows for automatic calculation of the defined weeks, input of scaling factors etc. It produces a concise summary of the results.<br /><br />Best<br />Achim<br /><br /><br /><br />--------- Original-Nachricht --------<br /> Von: "Ian McCall" <ijmccall@yahoo.com><br /> An: "ESP-r" <esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk><br /> Betreff: [esp-r] Scaling up my Model<br /> Datum: 09/08/10 11:36<br /> <br /> <!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000"><div>Hello ESP-r Community,<br /><br />Hence the last note I have looked into the scaling feature of ESP-r. I have successfully followed the steps outlined in chapter 6 of the ESP-r Cookbook (version Nov 2008). I have created a weather file for my city (Nantes) and selected the typical weeks for the winter1, spring, sum!
mer,
fall and winter2.. I have updated the "climatelist" etc... but then the chapter in ESP-r Cookbook Chapter 6 just stops and does not describe how execute simulation using the 5 ideal weeks / scaling option. Is this an automatic scaling option or do I have to run the simulation 5 times with each respective "ideal week" and then self-scale the results? Any ideas?<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Ian<em><br /></em> <ul><li>Previous message: <a href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/001926.html">[esp-r] Res: creat a new surface Bug </a></li><li>Next message: <a href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/001924.html">[esp-r] circular windows </a></li><li> <strong>Messages sorted by:</strong> <a href="http://lists..strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/date.html#1923">[ date ]</a> <a href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/archives/esp-r/2010/thread.html#1923">[ thread ]</a> <a

The <br />cookbook states that scaling up skills and working practices to cope with the <br />level of complexity found in realistic projects has traditionally been <br />accomplished via mentors or workshops. Since those two options are not really <br />available to me does someone have a document that covers these details? <br /><br /><br />The cookbook briefly mentions some techniques (e.g. chapter 6 talks about for <br />example, how to achieve annual heating and cooling for a whole building without <br />simulating every day etc.... i.e. it reports initial scaling factors that can be <br />used to convert from short period
assessments to seasonal performance data.). <br /><br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Ian<br /><br /></pre></div> </div><br /> <br /> <br /> <hr /> <br /> _______________________________________________<br /> esp-r mailing list<br /> <a href="mailto:esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk" class="autolink">esp-r@lists.strath.ac.uk</a><br /> <a href="http://lists.strath.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/esp-r" target="_blank" class="autolink">http://lists.strath.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/esp-r</a></BODY></HTML>
