Automated building energy performance simulation: a review of approaches and outline research opportunities

چکیده
This paper offers a review of approaches to the automated creation of input data for building energy simulation. Such data may be obtained by translation of available data from architectural and HVAC models. However, a full energy performance model also requires missing data to be completed. Two criteria for the assessment of the reviewed methods were their level of automation and the completeness of the obtained models.
