Lectures_on_OpenStudio_Polimi

In this repository you can find the required files of my lectures on "Building Energy Simulation using OpenStudio" for M.Sc. courses of "Energy and Environmental Technologies for Building System (Energy Engineering program)" and "Technical Environmental Systems (Sustainable Architcetures and Landscape Design program)" at Politecnico di Milano. These lectures are based on the official tutorials of OpenStudio and all of the corresponding rights are attributed to the OpenStudio (Open source (LGPL)) project.

In case you are following this course in the context of M.Sc. couse of "Technical Environmental Systems", please make sure you have filled inn this survey

In order to follow these Lectures you will need to have SketchUp Make, EnergyPlus, and OpenStudio installed on your computer. You can find the installation files of these software which are coherent with your operating system (including Windows, Mac, and Linux) in the following links: SketchUp make EnergyPlus OpenStudio

In case you are using 64 bit windows and any of the mentioned websites are down, you can download the corresponding files from This link

Furthermore, it is noteworthy that, in case you already have the SketchUp software installed on your computer, you might have to re-install it as the OpenStudio version might not be compatible with your installed version of SketchUp. In order to check whether you have correctly installed the above-mentioned softwares, you should verify that you have the OpenStudio add-on added to your SketchUp tools.

In order to insert local climatic information, we are going to use

In this repository I am only including the weather data of Milano Linate and Piacenza which we use in our lessons, you can find the weather data files of any other city in the above mentioned website.

In our lessons we are going to use NREL's Building component library, in order to follow the corresponding lecture, you should go the NREL's and create an account. In the latter website, once you create an account, you are given a unique API key in your dashboard. You should save this number so that it would be easily accessible for you.
