3.5. EnergyPlus Data Options<br />

EnergyPlus is an hourly/daily/monthly/annual <strong>energy</strong> simulation engine which<br />

employs a simultaneous load/system/plant simulation methodology (Pan, et al. 2009).<br />

Comfort data is including inside air, the radiant and comfort temperatures,<br />

relative humidity, and Fanger PMV (Fanger Predicted Mean Vote). Internal operative<br />

temperature mean <strong>of</strong> the internal air and radiant temperature.<br />

Simulations are performed with EnergyPlus to obtain Fanger PMV value to have<br />

an idea about the total comfort every floors <strong>of</strong> ADM building for all year. PMV value is<br />

a statistical index regarding comfort level <strong>of</strong> the selected space and ASHRAE 55 (2004)<br />

classify comfort as given in Table 3.3.<br />
