Video Description:
The workflow to perform energy analysis for Detailed Models follows the same steps as the Basic Workflow but uses a detailed architectural model.
1. Open your detailed model in Revit called “Office_detail_18.rvt”
To use Energy Optimization for Revit on detailed architectural models, follow this link for recommendations to prepare the model for the best results.
2. Then follow the same process as the Basic Workflow to launch the energy analysis and access the results
a. Set the location by clicking on the ‘Location’ icon. Set it to “One Market st, San Francisco”.
b. Then review the ‘Energy Settings’ by clicking on the icon, and make sure to always use the default analysis mode: “Use conceptual masses and building elements.”
c. By now, your model should contain building elements such as floors, walls, and roofs. You can use material thermal properties from the detailed elements for energy analysis. In the energy settings, under ‘Advanced’, ‘Other Options’, click “Edit”, and check ‘Detailed Element’.
d. Note that you have two ‘Export Categories’:
• One to “Rooms” to pass the Revit Room object name and number to the corresponding Analytical Space name.
• The other to “Spaces” to pass the following information from your Revit model for use in the analysis: Space object name and number, Occupancy, Lighting, Equipment, and Zone.
• For this exercise, select “Spaces”
e. Note that you can also specify different building types, operating schedules, HVAC systems, and outdoor air information from a dropdown menu of settings. For this exercise, set to “Office” and keep the default options. Then click “OK”.
3. Click on the ‘Generate’ icon: this generates the Insight of the energy model.
Clicking this icon will open a window asking you to create an energy model. Click on “Create the energy analytical Model”. This will create a new energy model which takes into consideration new detailed design elements such as Spaces, Rooms, Envelope Thermal Properties, and Glazing Thermal properties.
Once complete, you’ll see this window pop-up:
4. To access the results of the simulation in the Insight interface, use one of the following 3 methods:
a. In Revit click on the “Optimize” icon ;
b. In the “Analysis Complete” email you received, click the link provided;
c. Go to insight.autodesk.com, and sign into your Autodesk A360 account; click on ‘Insights’, click on ‘All Uncategorized’; and click on your model.
