Building Simulation 2015-Conference and Workshops-December 7-9, Hyderabad.

[Sraavani Gundepudi]

It is a pleasure to inform you that IIIT-Hyderabad is hosting the Building Simulation Conference 2015 (BS 2015). It is one of the biggest conferences in Building Simulation attracting delegates from all over the world .  There are workshops planned before and after the conference and one technical tour after the conference. The workshops will be on different simulation tools and will cover diverse topics about building simulation modelling. We believe it will be a great opportunity to learn from the experts.  We look forward to your participation in the conference and workshops.     About the Conference This is the 14th Conference of the International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA). The objective of BS 2015 is to advance the practice in diverse disciplines of building energy analysis and performance simulation. BS - 2015 is for those working in or learning about the field of building performance simulation including building designers, architects, sustainability managers, researchers and developers.  This is a biennial conference and is taking place for the First time in India. Previous conferences were held in several countries some of which are France, Australia, Scotland, China, and Canada.   Key Highlights Keynote speakers 2 Research and application papers 300+ Posters 70+ Student Modelling Competition 2 Workshops 10 Scientific Tracks 19 Technical Tour 1       Software used in workshops     Scientific Tracks Building physics Indoor air quality and thermal comfort Modelling for passive buildings Net zero buildings Solar energy utilization Simulation and real performance Advanced building simulation HVAC equipment New software development Climate and microclimate Optimization CFD and air flow in buildings Building information modelling Energy storage Validation, calibration and uncertainty Simulation for commissioning, control and monitoring Simulation in fault detection and diagnostics Teaching modelling and simulation Human aspects in simulation Simulation Workshops and Tour DesignBuilder training workshop for building envelope analysis Training Program on Design and Simulation of Radiant Cooling Systems under Indo-Swiss Building Energy Efficiency Project (BEEP) CRADLE’s scSTREAM (CFD) for Indoor and Outdoor Analysis Compliance modeling for ECBC using eQUEST DesignBuilder Training Workshop for Modeling HVAC Systems Natural Ventilation of Buildings in Urban Area: Introduction to Urbawind Introduction to the Virtual Environment Suite of Tools for Building Energy Performance Simulation.
