“Simulating Buildings for the New Normal”

IBPSA-Canada is pleased to invite the international building performance simulation community to the 12th biennial eSim Conference on June 22-23, 2022 with the theme “Simulating Buildings for the New Normal”. These dates were selected to precede the ASHRAE Conference in Toronto (June 25-29, 2022). The conference consists of two days with typically over 75 peer-reviewed paper presentations, as well as two days of theory and software workshops, a technical tour, and a banquet. The eSim conference is well-established and continues to grow, this year expecting to have over 200 delegates. We welcome abstract submission until October 30, 2021 from the web submission form.

  • Abstract Submission: October 30, 2021
  • Paper Submission: March 1, 2022
  • Paper Notification: April 1, 2022

The website dedicated to the Experimental Houses of Building Energetics (EHBE) of the Energy Technology Laboratory (ETL) offers free download of selected data.
EHBE’s are full scale, fully instrumented twin houses. They have electric baseboards controlled by a line-voltage electronic thermostat in each room, air ducts ready for a central heating/cooling system,
electric radiant floors in the kitchen and the full bathroom and heat recovery ventilator. Each house has nearly 500 measurement points sampled at 15 minute intervals including per room space heating energy,
air temperature, velocity and humidity, sphere temperature, structure embedded temperatures, soil temperature and humidity, comfort metrics and local weather data.
The building energy model of one EHBE and the information required to generate it are also available for download.
