Exploration of using building performance simulation tools for conceptual building design

This paper reports on an exploration of the use of building performance simulation tools in current building design practice. Firstly the paper identifies the features and capabilities of six software tools (Orca, MIT Design Advisor, h.e.n.k., Energy-10, BDA and e-QUEST) obtained from a software rev...
