For a more thorough technical discussion:
Paper 6. Robison, "A Simplified Engineering Simulation Tool For Calibration To Monthly Energy", 2004.
Paper 5. Robison, "Use of a Billing Simulation Tool for Analysis of Commercial Facilities", 2001.
Paper 4 . Robison and Reichmuth, "Billing Simulation Tool for Performance Measurement and Verification", describes methodology for precision of engineering estimates, 2000. .
Paper 3 . Robison and Reichmuth, "Use of Billing Simulation Tool for Commissioning", presents several examples of using EZ Sim to estimate and verify savings or diagnose savings opportunities, 1999.
Paper 2 . White and Reichmuth, "Simplified Method Of Predicting Building Energy Use In Complex Buildings", describes engineering methodology for the monthly simulation, 1996.
Paper 1 . Robison and Reichmuth, "Short Term Monitoring", describes methods for collecting on-site measurements for model parameters. These measurements are supplemental and by no means required to use EZ Sim, 1990.
