What you'll learn

  • CYPETHERM Improvements Plus is a program designed to carry out the energy audit of buildings and analysis of possible improvement measures.
  • CYPETHERM Improvements Plus provides an energy and economic study of the different renovation alternatives
  • Aimed at connecting with CYPETHERM programs with the EnergyPlus™ analysis engine.
  • This application is integrated in the Open BIM workflow via the BIMserver center platform.

Course content

2 sections • 10 lectures • 37m total length

  • RenoZEB Context2:26

    Explore RenoZEB context within CYPETHERM Improvements Plus, applying renovation measures to a residential Durango building, import results into the software, and compare solutions by cost, CO2, energy savings, and amortization.

  • Quickview1:19

    Sipi term improvements plus enables energy audits by comparing energy savings, CO2 emissions, price, and amortization time across construction solutions, with manual data entry and energy simulation comparisons.

  • Interface and functionalities2:07

    CYPETHERM improvements plus interface lets architects compare energy consumption, CO2 emissions, and economic simulations across improvement measures, using a three-part layout with general data, data management, and results.

  • How to import energy simulation results2:43

    Import energy simulation results with CYPETHERM Improvements Plus, export and manage improvement measures, and compare initial and improved energy losses while adding economic data and XML imports.

  • Calculation of the amortization time1:36

    Enter energy cost data by source and perform dynamic or static amortisation time calculations from net present value, then add budgets line by line to compute costs.

  • Reports: energy balance and improvement measures analysis1:10

    Learn how to generate energy balance and improvement measures reports from an energy audit, compare measures economically using initial consumption data, and visualize savings, CO2 emissions, and amortization time.

Requirements

  • It is recommended to take the CYPETHERM Eplus course

Description

CYPETHERM Improvements Plus is a program designed to carry out the energy audit of buildings and analysis of possible improvement measures, with an energy and economic study of the different alternatives, aimed at connecting with CYPETHERM programs with the EnergyPlus™ analysis engine (CYPETHERM EPlus, CYPETHERM HE Plus and CYPETHERM RECS Plus).

This course is part of a series of courses developed in RenoZEB European project whose objective is to boost the nZEB market for renovation of buildings using new software tools and the new developed constructive solution "RenoZEB plug and play system". We recommend students take a look at the other courses available at Udemy: IFC Builder to create the BIM model of their building; Open BIM Focchi Facades to integrate the "plug and play" solution into the BIM model and CYPETHERM Eplus to make the energy simulation of the building.

In this course we will work with the BIM model example that has been developed in the rest of the courses: IFC Builder, Open BIM Focchi Facades and CYPETHERM Eplus. It is a residential building in the town of Durango (Basque Country) and has been renovated under the guidelines of the RenoZEB project.

"CYPETHERM Improvements Plus" is the evolution of "CYPETHERM Improvements" to optimize the connection of the improvement measures analysis program with the results offered by CYPETHERM programs with the EnergyPlus™ analysis engine. One of the main features that differentiates "CYPETHERM Improvements Plus" from "CYPETHERM Improvements" is that users can describe the energy consumption of the different services of the building and establish the final energy from the non-renewable primary energy.

Who this course is for:

  • Architecs
  • MEP Engineers
  • Energy efficiency Auditors
