Optimisation Limitations

DesignBuilder v4.0 has these limitations related to Optimisation:

 

  1. You must run a simulation with monthly/annual output for the model (on the Analysis tab) before clicking on the optimisation tab. If you don’t have any monthly/annual results on this tab then you must re-run the base simulation before updating the optimisation analysis.
  2. The Daylight availability KPI is not yet enabled but we hope to have this working soon.
  3. It isn't possible to store multiple optimisation results sets within the DesignBuilder model.
