Buildings & Civil Infrastructure

Model the built environment, from HVAC to stormwater

Bring EnergyPlus building models, EPANET water distribution networks, and EPA SWMM stormwater systems into one workspace for coupled simulation and analysis.

The challenge

What slows buildings & civil infrastructure teams down

01

Disconnected systems

Energy, water, and drainage are modeled separately even though they interact.

02

Scenario explosion

Climate and demand scenarios multiply the number of runs needed.

03

Digital twin gaps

Models rarely connect to live sensor data for calibration.

Reference workflow

One pipeline, end to end

  1. 1

    Import

    IDF, EPANET & SWMM inputs

  2. 2

    Couple

    Projection to Modelica

  3. 3

    Simulate

    Scenario sweeps

  4. 4

    Calibrate

    Telemetry alignment
