7.5.8.3 Design Tools

Several software tools were tested in the framework of the ENERPOS
research project and during the design of the building to evaluate the
thermal performance of the building, such as Codyrun (Boyer et al. , 1996)
or Design Builder and Dial Europe for daylighting (Garde et al. , 2006).
However, the models were primarily used to check the passive performance
rather than to size the systems.
