cesarp.eplus_adapter package

eplus_adapter

Responsible for everything regarding EnergyPlus, from IDF creation to result extraction. The implementation is based on the eppy library, see https://pypi.org/project/eppy/

For custom IDF creation, create an instance of IDF (with eppy) and call the methods writing the parts of the IDF you want, either use the functions in CesarIDFWriter or call directly methods form idf_writer_xxx.

Main API

class / module	description
cesarp.eplus_adapter.CesarIDFWriter	creates an IDF file based on cesarp.model.BuildingModel connection according to the configuration (by default local file)
cesarp.eplus_adapter.eplus_sim_runner	run energyplus simulation for exisitng IDF file
cesarp.eplus_adapter.eplus_eso_results_handling	extracts main results from EnergyPlus eso results file
cesarp.eplus_adapter.EPlusEioResultAnalyzer	extracts results from EnergyPlus eio results file, e.g. floor area
cesarp.eplus_adapter.eplus_error_file_handling	extract error level from EnergyPlus err log file
