Abstract
Systems and methods for event simulation with energy analysis. A method includes receiving a plurality of environment objects, and receiving energy attributes corresponding to one or more of the environment objects. The method includes simulating the operation of the environment objects and, during the simulation, calculating values for the energy attributes reflecting the energy use for the respective energy attributes. The method includes displaying the calculated values for the energy attributes.
Claims17
A method for energy analysis, the method performed by a data processing system and comprising:
- receiving a plurality of environment objects;
- receiving energy attributes corresponding to one or more of the environment objects;
- simulating the operation of the environment objects, including simulation of a non-productive state of at least one of the environment objects;
- during the simulation, calculating values for the energy attributes reflecting the energy use for the respective energy attributes, including values for energy attributes of the at least one of the environment objects in the non-productive state;
- and
- displaying the calculated values for the energy attributes, wherein the calculating and displaying acts are repeated while the simulation continues to dynamically update the displayed calculated values.
A data processing system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- an accessible memory, the data processing system particularly configured to
- receive a plurality of environment objects;
- receive energy attributes corresponding to one or more of the environment objects;
- simulate the operation of the environment objects, including simulation of a non-productive state of at least one of the environment objects;
- during the simulation, calculate values for the energy attributes reflecting the energy use for the respective energy attributes, including values for energy attributes of the at least one of the environment objects in the non-productive state;
- and
- display the calculated values for the energy attributes, wherein the calculating and displaying acts are repeated while the simulation continues to dynamically update the displayed calculated values.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with executable instructions that, when executed, cause one or more data processing systems to:
- receive a plurality of environment objects;
- receive energy attributes corresponding to one or more of the environment objects;
- simulate the operation of the environment objects, including simulation of a non-productive state of at least one of the environment objects;
- during the simulation, calculate values for the energy attributes reflecting the energy use for the respective energy attributes, including values for energy attributes of the at least one of the environment objects in the non-productive state;
- and
- display the calculated values for the energy attributes, wherein the calculating and displaying acts are repeated while the simulation continues to dynamically update the displayed calculated values.
