VisualDOE 3.1 – A New Tool
for
Eley
Associates is pleased to announce Version 3.1 of VisualDOE, a state of the art
program for performing whole-building energy analysis using DOE-2 on PCs running
MS Windows 95/98/NT/Me/2000/XP.
VisualDOE 3.1 is a new green building design tool that allows users to evaluate energy and demand impacts of design alternatives. The program covers all major building systems, including building envelope, lighting, daylighting, water heating, HVAC and central plant.
The
first release of VisualDOE in 1994 dramatically reduced the time required to
perform accurate energy simulations, version 3.1 takes this ease-of-use and
power to a new level. The program is targeted for architects, engineers, MEP
firms, energy consultants, utilities, national laboratories, universities,
energy service companies, HVAC equipment manufacturers, and building product
manufacturers.
