That extensive analysis includes many aspects of high performance design. Ecotect allows an easy interface with an imported CAD model to a full analysis of one final project based on E 10s analysis. It also allows us to easily compare, contrast and select individual high performance strategies via runs, keeps and schemes. It allows us to simulate fresh air movement effects through Economizer Cycle and Hot/Cold Air systems.

This approach allows us to analyze skin, windows, orientation, climate, and skin elements relating to the most efficient commercial envelope available. Energy 10 is used to always compare two buildings and to analyze the envelope fully, allowing us to build a super low energy design under the Low Energy Case. This report is a full analysis of a previous studio project utilizing energy modeling programs, but focusing on the details provided by Energy 10 and Ecotect.
