건물 정보 모델링(BIM) 기반 정밀 에너지 시뮬레이션 도구 개발 : SEP

Energy consumption in building sector takes 40% of total energy consumption in EU and 24% in korea. Energy reduction in building sector is important to reduce carbon emission against global worming. To improve energy performance of a new building, it is essential to assess energy performance at early design stage (i.e. conceptual design). In practice, however, it is not a trivial job for designers and even engineers to evaluate energy performance of buildings using dynamic energy simulation programs expecting high accuracy of results. To address this, a real-time collaborative system of designers and engineers is required. The purpose of this study is to develop BIM based energy simulation tool(SEP) to improve the productivity of building design process with which designers and engineers work efficiently. The program consists of the Autodesk Revit as user interface, ESP-r as simulation engine and activity database. the user interface and built-in database support users to create detailed building models and get the results of dynamic energy simulation without compromising accuracy.
