Abstract
An international study on `Commissioning of building HVAC systems for improved energy performance' has been conducted in the IEA/ECBCS/Annex40 from 2001 through 2004. The objective of this study is to develop, validate and document tools for commissioning of building HVAC systems. The tools are mainly divided into standard models of commissioning plans, manual commissioning procedures, BEMS-assisted commissioning tools and use of computer simulation models. This paper introduces the study on the use of computer simulation models and shows how the tool should be developed in the future.
