Doc.No 20100610.SIMEA.MR.03<br />
Versione 1<br />
Performs hourly simulations for single family, multifamily, and mobile homes. Comprehensive<br />
analysis tool includes tools for retrofitting heating and cooling systems, building envelopes (insulation and<br />
infiltration), windows and doors, hot water, ventilation, lighting and appliances, and more. Weather<br />
normalizes utility bills for comparison to performance of model. Highly accurate calculations which consider<br />
waste heat (baseload), solar heat gain, and fully interacted energy savings calculations.<br />
1.2.44.1. Validation/Testing<br />
BESTested, DOE approved for weatherization (single family, multifamily, and mobile homes).<br />
1.2.44.2. Expertise Required<br />
Basic computer skills, knowledge of building science, building performance contracting or<br />
weatherization retrofit techniques.<br />
1.2.44.3. Users<br />
Over 1,000.<br />
1.2.44.4. Audience<br />
Weatherization, Home Energy Raters, Home Performance with Energy Star Contractors, Insulation<br />
and Mechanical contractors, Energy Engineers performing multifamily building energy analysis.<br />
1.2.44.5. Input<br />
Building components libraries are used to input building geometry and thermal characteristics, heating<br />
and cooling equipment and system characteristics, lighting, appliances, ventilation, and hot water.<br />
1.2.44.6. Output<br />
20 user-selected, formatted reports printed directly by TREAT; generates custom program-designed<br />
reports for weatherization, home performance programs or HERS providers. Exports project data in XML<br />
format which may be uploaded to online database and tracking system.<br />
1.2.44.7. Computer Platform<br />
CPU: Pentium 300 or higher (600 MHz recommended); RAM: 256 MB (512 MB recommended);<br />
operating system: Windows XP and Windows Vista. Internet access required for software registration.<br />
1.2.44.8. Programming Language<br />
Delphi and FORTRAN<br />
1.2.44.9. Strengths<br />
Comprehensive and highly flexible whole building retrofit tool, easy to use graphic user interface<br />
which includes libraries of building components (walls / surfaces, windows, doors, appliances, lighting,<br />
heating and cooling, and hot water). Performs utility billing analysis including weather normalization.<br />
1.2.44.10. Weaknesses<br />
Not recommended for commercial buildings with complex HVAC systems.
