(Sept 2014 NREL/LBNL report)
especially slides 4, 5, 10, 11

For 2013 residential, there are differences between:
   state [~$1.5/W]: $4.94 CA vs $3.47 TX
   methodology[~$1/W]: $4.69 reported vs $3.71 modeled
   system size[~$0.2/W]: $4.76 (< 2 KW), $4.83 (2-5 KW), $4.57 (5-10 KW)

Note: the methodology difference is partly driven by the state difference (high system prices in CA).

Modeled system prices quoted in Q4 2013 (and expected to be installed in 2014): Residential (5 kW) was $3.29/W.
Consistent with leading residential installers’ pricing, such as SolarCity’s reported Q2 2014 costs ($3.03/W), plus a reasonable operating profit margin. NOTE: For BEopt 2.3, quoted in Q4 2014 is appropriate -- 1 year later than the $3.29/W value.

Given that PV system costs (prices) are more sensitive to location and time than to system size, it would be good to modify the BEopt PV cost methodology:

1) update cost values in BEopt -- say, $3.30 would be conservative for installed in 2015 (typical for TX, without CA cost premium) with much reduced sensitivity to system size: say, linearly through $3.70/W at 2.5 KW and $3.30/W at 7.5 KW.
2) On the Option Editor cost input screen:
   a) PV material costs should be in $/W.
   b) display total system $/W.
3) include total system $/W as calculated display variable on the Options screen.
4) provide a PV cost multiplier on the site screen so that a user can easily adjust for PV costs sensitivity to time and location.

SAM uses some of the older PVWatts derate factors, but some of the biggest changes to Pvwatts were in the inverter model.  The original Pvwatts assumed a 92% efficient inverter, which is really outdated.  The new PVWatts V5 that was released last month (pvwatts.nrel.gov) updates this and makes several other changes, summarized here: http://pvwatts.nrel.gov/version_5.php 

The new PVWatts predicts roughly 7-9% more energy on an annual basis than the old V1 for the default inputs.

The details and validation are in the technical manual:  http://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy14osti/62641.pdf

Also, we’ve gone away from derate factors, and switched to loss percentages.  This makes SAM and Pvwatts consistent with every other PV modeling tool out there, and is generally easier for users to understand.

2.0.0.3	291	No horizontal scroll bar in CostSelector grids when first column is too wide	Interface - Library Manager	bug	ejerome	closed	2012-08-30T11:00:01-06:00	2013-02-13T15:00:43-07:00	In the Cost selector, if the option or measure name exceeds the size of the grid the horizontal scrollbar does not appear.  It only appears once the screen is made wide enough for at least two columns to be displayed.  This behavior is due to having the first column frozen in position and so can't be changed without a lot of work (overriding a lot of methods to manually generate the scrollbar and manage scrolling).  We can discuss possible alternatives to this behavior (i.e. having the column automatically unfreeze if it is wider than the screen and refreeze when the screen is made wide enough.	ejerome

We may want to consider changing our logic from the current event based approach (in which the sequence of events can be difficult to control) to a more linear approach that, when the design tab, ananlysis mode, reference building, or application type changes, we first save all relevant option control settings to the underlying business objects, then change to the new design/type/mode/building, and then refresh the option control from the underlying buisiness objects. This will take longer than fixing the bugs as they occur, as we have been doing, and it may introduce some new bugs, but once we fix a bug it should fix all bugs of its class, rather than leaving other similar bugs unfixed.	ejerome

We need to be careful that we don’t perform linq queries more than is required. Here are two examples:

•	Measures.cs:

        public Option BeforeOption
        {
            get
            {
                if (_beforeOption == null) { _beforeOption = (from o in Category.Options where o.ID == BeforeOptionId 
                                                              select o).FirstOrDefault<Option>(); }
                return _beforeOption;
            }
        }

For new construction measures, the BeforeOption can be null – which means we hit the linq query over and over again for new construction measures. I’ve changed the if statement to “if (_beforeOption == null && BeforeOptionId != Guid.Empty)” to prevent this.

•	Option.cs:

        public IList<PerformanceLevel> PerformanceLevels
        {
            get 
            {
                if (_performanceLevels.Count == 0) { _performanceLevels = (from l in BEoptProject.PerformanceLevels where l.OptionId == ID 
                                                                           select l).ToList<PerformanceLevel>(); }
                return _performanceLevels; 
            }
        }

If an option doesn’t actually have any performance levels, it will once again continue to run the linq query over and over. I changed the if statement to “if (_performanceLevels.Count == null)” and made sure that the performanceLevels list is no longer initialized to an empty list in the constructor.

I’m pointing these out so that you can try to have these types of performance issues in mind. I suspect there may be other situations like this, as it seems to arise when the actual property we’re getting is null or an empty list.

When we deselect a cost group from the last case that uses it we would remove it (or at least its selections) from the project DB. ~~

2.  Should we remove import/export of options from the option manager and put it in a separate screen.

Jay and Jeff have pointed out that electric tanks are not rated using recovery efficiency, so it is a confusing input to have for electric tanks. We are using the recovery efficiency simulation variable to store the 0.99 conversion efficiency.

I propose hardcoding electric tank (and tankless) conversion efficiency to 1.00 in energyplus.py and doe2.py, and making recovery efficiency ""NA"" for electric options.

I think the former value is incorrect, because:

 1. The ""Total Site Energy"" from ABUPS (56.13 GJ) times the effective source-to-site factor for electricity, 3.868 (calculated using schedule ""ELECTRIC_TDV_2008_KBTU_CTZ01.CSV"") equals 217.11 GJ (This is an all-electric building).

> The reason the supply ventilation case uses less energy than the return exhaust ventilation case is due to interactions with duct leakage. We configure !EnergyPlus to account for an imbalance in supply and return duct leakage and the effect of that imbalance on infiltration. In the duct option you have selected (15% leakage, R-8 insulation), there is 10% supply leakage and 5% return leakage. This is equivalent to an exhaust fan with flow rate equal to 5% of the air handler flow rate (so could be 50 cfm if the air handler moves 1000 cfm).
> This 50 cfm of ""exhaust"" is added to other flowrates, including mechanical ventilation and infiltration. In the case of whole-house exhaust ventilation (say, 50 cfm), the exhaust flowrates are added together (100 cfm) and then added in quadrature with infiltration: SQRT(100!^2 + inf!^2). In the case of whole-house supply ventilation (50 cfm), the ""exhaust"" and supply flows balance each other out and thus are treated as a balanced flow in the AIM-2 infiltration equation: 50 + SQRT(inf!^2). Thus, the overall volume of air exchanged with the outside will be less in the supply ventilation case (at least during times of air handler operation, as well as times when spot exhaust ventilation and clothes dryer exhaust is occurring).
> I have to thank you for raising this issue though, because while investigating, we discovered that we were neglecting to add in the 50 cfm of balanced flow in the situation above. Fixing this will decrease the magnitude of the difference you see, but overall the supply ventilation case will still use less energy than the return supply ventilation case."	ewilson

As a result, a design with PEX or insulated pipes uses less hot water than the ""None"" distribution option. If the ""None"" option is meant to represent zero or minimal pipe losses, then I think we should use one of the equations to reduce gal/day values for this ""None"" option. We can't use superinsulated pipes because the decrease is linear with R-value (!) so maybe we just use R-5."	ewilson

I assume that other  projects have such funcs as well. I suggest that we create a 'common'  utility lib that any project can link in for access to these funcs. In  some solutions, it would be possible to simply make a 'common' folder of  source available for any project to compile in, but since we are using  multiple languages, I think we have to go with a lib that is linked in. I  suggest that the lib is written in C#; in the BEopt2 solution, any new  projects should be written in C# unless there is a valid reason not to.[[BR]]	jgehring

    Good morning Noel,

    The stored procedure expects values to be a continuous stream of alphanumeric characters and if there are spaces it looks like it reads them as field delimiters and then doesn’t know how to parse the value into a single field in the database.

     For example, in one file we tested we had this:

     <!h:SendingSystemIdentifierType>BEoptData</!h:SendingSystemIdentifierType>

    <!h:SendingSystemIdentifierValue>'''{'Analysis Mode': 'Parametric', 'Output Point Name': 'Point 7', 'Case Name': 'Default Case', 'Application Type': '!NewConstruction'}'''</!h:SendingSystemIdentifierValue>

    <!h:SendingSystemIdentifierValue>'''0a615e20ccb7fe7f7f27a2550252fed3'''</!h:SendingSystemIdentifierValue>

In testing the cold climate heat pump auto sizing, I noticed that in retrofit mode the air source heat pump cooling/heating capacity (recall that they’re the same) is also being used for the supplemental heater capacity. I noticed this for single stage and variable speed air source heat pumps (I did not run two-stage).

 

For example, if the heat pump cooling capacity is autosized for the existing home to be 2 tons, the supplemental heater capacity is being set at 24,000 Btu/h and not the calculated heating load. The XML file should be storing the heat pump capacity in the !FixedCoolingCapacity field and the supplemental heater capacity in the !FixedHeatingCapacity field.

- Gather information from geometry/site screens to produce xml files
  - We can hardcode the options screen info for now (perhaps using one of the example xml files)
- Make call to RunMgr
- Retrieve information from simulation output files as they are parsed
  - Store in a database (database should associate outputs and inputs)

 1. the simulation variables that should be entered by the user for a new option, and
 1. the default value for simulation variables that the user doesn't enter (e.g. ""NA"" or ""No"")

When the user specifies a new option, they would then choose the !OptionType and enter the appropriate simulation variables.

This would allow us to handle various situations: 1. We could put all wall types into a single exterior walls category

 1. We could better handle multiple construction types for roofs, floors, basement walls, etc.
 1. We could better handle the new Dylan AC category (where the user enters 2 of 3 sim vars) or the water heater category (tank vs tankless), etc."	shorowit

This would make the code more flexible and maintainable.

Examples of where this would help:

 * There is lots of extra code related to renaming an option as well as resolving a conflict by creating a new option
 * There are similar but duplicate project & option objects (related to measures data) that could be consolidated
 * We could allow additional functionality that we currently don't allow (resolving a conflict for an option with output, renaming an option with output)
 * We would no longer have to auto-reconcile conflicts by changing values on the library side when opening the library manager. Instead, either when we open the project or open the library manager, we would do all auto-reconciling of conflicts on the project side.

When implementing, we should research sqlite's capabilities for foreign key constraints and cascading updates/deletes.

I did some profiling and it seems like the culprit is inside the UnloadLibraryOnlyData method where we do linq queries to obtain EconomicPropertySelectionGroup's selected econ props and Measure/Option econ props for every object. Perhaps we can put a flag on the parent object so that we don't necessarily have to check the state of every one of its children?	shorowit

This works pretty well, but can result in bugs. For example, if we were to limit the wood stud wall new construction measures to be, say, R-13 or above, then if the user were in retrofit mode in BEopt and selected an uninsulated wall, they would see post-retrofit options for insulating the wall but the option to keep the wall uninsulated would not show up.

When I use a vanilla install of BEopt2 beta (i.e. without any user data), opening the project file errors out with an EconomicProperty that can't be found. When comparing the Atlanta.BEopt database to the temp database that BEopt actually tries to read, it seems that a bunch of rows have had GUIDs updated -- which I believe is indicative of conflicts. But I don't think it's actually possible to have conflicts in this situation (since I have no user data for the project file to conflict with).

We should investigate:

 1. Why does the conflict resolution result in what appears to be self-inconsistent data?
 1. Why does the conflict resolution cause any data to be changed?

Lets discuss. I also have the users library database (Measures.sqlite) if that is helpful."	shorowit

 * Currently BEopt doesn't calculate residual value for costs that were incurred in the past. For example:
   * An existing SEER 8 AC with 15 years of remaining life, being upgraded to SEER 13 at wear out, which occurs beyond the end of the analysis period.
   * An existing wall with 50 years of remaining life, being ""replaced"" with itself at wear out, which occurs beyond the end of the analysis period.
 * NREMDB does not have measures in envelope categories where an option is replaced with itself (e.g. R13 -> R13). (If we want costs for this situation, we may want multiple linking groups to separate the costs incurred at wear out vs one-time structure costs.)

Note, the incentives in the CAHP and SBD programs are based on '''1^st^ year savings, not life cycle'''. For new construction, the year to year savings do not change. However, in BEopt, changes can occur over the lifetime of the retrofit. We recommend that the incentives be calculated based on the 1^st^ year savings. The savings that occur further down in time are likely to be widget based measures, such as lighting and refrigerator replacements, which already have existing programs. Secondly, the goal of ZNE program is to achieve deep savings, which are likely to come from infrastructure and HVAC based investments. By awarding an incentive for the measures that occur in year 1, we also may address the potential problem of awarding incentives for measures that have existing programs, as those measures are likely to occur beyond year 1."	shorowit

Therefore, in design/analysis mode it is more consistent to apply the ACH levels (and associated costs) as a function of above-grade conditioned floor area.

 * Handle opening project files with user options that have previously been imported into the library

 * It seems that part of the slow speed of generating the log file (via the ImportResultsForm) is that Cells.Add is used. Please replace it with Cells.[wiki:AddRange]
 * Lets move the !ImportResultsForm to be displayed at the very end of loading the project file (so that we don't have a dialog that stops execution in the middle of the project loading process)
 * Can we remove the hard-coded table names in ImportResultsForm by dynamically determining them?
 * After we have migrated a project file, autosave it
 * Can we remove the hard-coded category IDs in UpdateUserDefinedOptions by dynamically determining them?
 * We need to investigate why certain options are not automatically having their option types determined (see attached proj file)
 * We should incorporate the migration work into the loading project progress bar
 * I also have a project file (see attached) that gives me the unsuccessful conversion error message. I had created user options (of various option types) in every category.
 * Handle new economic property types (let's discuss)

 * Imported Options form:
   * Show text in gray when it is read-only (or show cell bgcolor in gray, if we need to make it more noticeable)
   * Have a single Next Category button that changes to Close when on the last category.
   * Highlight cells (option type and/or properties) with missing text in red (option type first, then once a type is selected the property cells)
   * When specifying a value for the option type, it seems like the value isn't registered until I click off the cell (as opposed to when the dropdown selection changes); also, weirdness when selecting dropdown values for multiple options

xfang: ""revised both DOE2 and [https://cbr.nrel.gov/BEopt/trac/wiki/EnergyPlus EnergyPlus] GSHPPump energy output to model load matching. Also fixed hydronic pump energy issue in [https://cbr.nrel.gov/BEopt/trac/wiki/EnergyPlus EnergyPlus].""

Is this a legitimate change? It results in significantly less pump energy use showing up in BEopt vs the E+ output file."	shorowit
2.1.0.0	568	Confusion when multiple cost columns	Interface - Options Input Screen	task	shorowit	closed	2013-05-06T14:47:16-06:00	2013-07-11T09:58:57-06:00	On the input screen, we've occasionally had users confused by the fact that, e.g., the total AC cost is the sum of two costs columns. A user might think it's two different ways of seeing the same cost value, or might not see both columns. Can we somehow combine the columns? Gets a little tricky because of units (e.g. $ + $/kbtuh).	shorowit

So, instead we'd like the behavior where a user can click in the cell, select text, etc., but cannot change values (e.g. the behavior we use for the comparison option).	shorowit

Carpet pads are typically 6 lbs/ft!^3 for a 7/16” thick pad (see [http://www.carpet-rug.org/residential-customers/selecting-the-right-carpet-or-rug/selecting-the-right-cushion.cfm here]). Google says that carpet weights are around 40-60 oz/yd!^2 (see [http://www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/article/0,,203266-4,00.html here]), so let’s use 50 oz/yd!^2. Combining these together gives 0.566 lb/ft!^2. Using the 1/2” (0.0127 m) thickness for the carpetbarelayer would imply a density of 218 kg/m!^3. This includes both the pad and the carpet."	shorowit

For example, if they have 3 options at the end of a category in BEopt 2.2 and then migrate to 2.3, where we have added 3 or more new options in that category, I believe their options will become interspersed with the new options. A simple logic here would be to say that any user options at the end of the category in the previous version should stay at the end of the category in the new version.

Coming up with logic to handle options not at the end of the category would have to be more nuanced but may also be improved.

This would significantly simplify our code (we'd no longer need to support manual conflict resolution in our library manager), which is a nice goal especially considering that conflicts are a fairly infrequent occurrence.

Based on the type of conflict, we could auto-resolve in different ways. For example:

 * Physical property conflict -> give project option a new guid and name
 * Option/Measure economic property conflict -> assign economic properties to a new dataset
 * Selected economic property conflict -> create new selection group

Before proceeding, we'll want to discuss the mechanics in more detail and verify that this direction is ok from a user pov (i.e. they will no longer be notified of conflicts and able to resolve conflicts in the library manager)."	shorowit
