Abstract

In order to inform the design of a building or a group of buildings in relation to their potential energy efficiency, the main impact will be at the initial concept design stage. Variations and interactions of parameters need to be considered quickly as the design develops. This paper describes the development of a ‘sensitivity tool’ based around the established building energy model, HTB2. An example case study from China is given to illustrate the process.
