鈥淚ES鈥� worldwide users will benefit from both local and global enhanced technical capabilities, major graphical input and output developments and more visual, interactive and flexible reporting,鈥� IES trumpeted in a press release.

The software comprises a package of building performance tools which enable designers to look at how key design and climate factors influence the sustainability performance of a building.

鈥淢any of our customers are at the cutting edge of building design,鈥� said marketing manager, Edwina Cramp. 鈥淭hey use our tools extensively to help them achieve significant energy use reductions and ensure occupant comfort.

鈥淭he full <Virtual Environment> is the most detailed level of engagement offered by IES, with VE-Ware and VE-Toolkits acting as alternatives for those looking for who only need top-level information.鈥�

IES has also allowed for new 3D model result visualisation options to be offered, including airflow openings and room colour coding according to result/input data thresholds. CFD airflow analysis allows for underfloor air displacement to be modelled.

Total international regulation suitability

The software has been validated by GB and Irish agencies and is compliant with the new Dynamic Simulation Model (DSM) Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) and Republic of Ireland 好色先生TV Energy Rating (BER). IES offers both SBEM and DSM EPC options with versions suitable for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. The software has also been upgraded to include localise fuel mix data for the US and Australia which give additional accuracy to carbon performance calculations.

Dr Don McLean, IES founder, said: 鈥淭hese enhancements further increase the functionality and use experience offered by the IES <Virtual Environment> suite, which is already the most comprehensive integrated suite of building performance analysis tools in the world.

鈥淥ur close links to customers at the cutting edge of sustainable design mean we鈥檙e confident that the release of v5.9 brings to the market what architects and engineers want and need to help them design 鈥榞reen鈥� better informed and more efficiently.鈥�
