Residential Energy Simulations using LadybugTools

Learning how to use Ladybug and Honeybee from Tools
What you'll learn
Making different foliage types like Tree, Bush and Grass
Creating believable wind animation for your trees and foliage
Exporting Speedtree models to both Game Engines and Other VFX softwares
Using different nodes and generators to make good-looking trees
Requirements
No experience using the software is required. You will learn everything you need to know.
You will use Rhinoceros 7.
In a video I will explain how to install the programs that you will use in the course
Preferably Windows as operating system or working with Parallels or Bootcamp
Description
Course objective
Generate your own climate and interactive graphs. Learn to generate solar, radiation and wind studies and apply some of these studies into the envelope.
Create energy simulations in Honeybee Energy. You will learn the bases for energy modeling and thus be able to generate energy savings, decrease / increase interior temperatures, change of construction materials, occupation schedules, among others.
Scope
This course will provide you with the bases to carry out your energy simulations, to carry out these simulations using the Grasshopper program included in the Rhinoceros 3D software. You will use the LadybugTools tool: Ladybug, Honeybee, Honeybee Energy, and Honeybee Radiance.
Note: YOU DO NOT NEED TO HAVE THE INSTALLED PROGRAM. During the first class we will review the installation of the program and the plugins. Even if you already have the software installed, we will check that it is installed correctly. A bad installation causes that it does not generate the energetic simulations.
During this course I will take you by the hand so that from a 3D model of a house you can generate environmental analysis and create an energy model. Hene, step by step you will see how to build this model so that you can simulate scenarios and see the differences between both cases.
This course has the peculiarity that it shows you how to customize your schedules and laodsfor people, equipment, lighting, hot water, construction materials, add new windows, generate shading on them (louvers or parasols), and much more
Furthermore, you will learn how to use Honeybee Radiance for building recipes ato perform indoor daylight analysis and thermal comfort maps.
