The bi-annual conference of IBPSA-Canada is being organized to bring together professionals, academics and students interested in building performance simulation issues and applications. It will be held in Toronto, Canada on May 4 and 5, 2006 (pre-conference workshops May 3, 2006) at the Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design (al&d) located within the downtown campus of the University of Toronto.
The themes of the conference are:
- Recent developments for modelling the physical processes relevant to buildings (thermal, air flow, moisture, lighting).
- Algorithms for modelling conventional and innovative HVAC systems.
- Methods for modelling the whole-building performance, including integrated resource management, renewable energy sources and combined heat, cool and power generation.
- Building simulation software development and quality control approaches.
- Use of building simulation tools in code compliance and incentive programmes.
- Moving simulation into practice. Case studies of innovative simulation approaches.
- Validation of building simulation software.
- User interface and software interoperability issues.
- Architectural and engineering data visualization and animation.
- Optimization approaches in building design.
