Reasons include faulty construction, malfunctioning equipment, incorrectly configured control systems and inappropriate operating procedures. One approach to addressing this problems is to compare the predictions of an energy simulation model of the building to the measured performance and analyze significant differences to infer the presence and location of faults. This paper presents a framework that allows a comparison of building actual performance and expected performance in real time. The realization of the framework utilized the EnergyPlus, the Building Controls Virtual Test Bed (BCVTB) and the Energy Management and Control System (EMCS) was developed. An EnergyPlus model that represents expected performance of a building runs in real time and reports the predicted building performance at each time step. The BCVTB is used as the software platform to acquire relevant inputs from the EMCS through a BACnet interface and send them to the EnergyPlus and to a database for archiving. A proof-of-concept demonstration is also presented.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0360-1323</style></custom2><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">100</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>27</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philip Haves</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prajesh Bhattacharya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thierry Stephane Nouidui</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Michael Wetter</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhengwei Li</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xiufeng Pang</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BacNet and Analog/Digital Interfaces of the Building Controls Virtual Testbed</style></title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11/2011</style></date></pub-dates></dates><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;This paper gives an overview of recent developments in the Building Controls Virtual Test Bed (BCVTB), a framework for co-simulation and hardware-in-the-loop.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;First, a general overview of the BCVTB is presented. Second, we describe the BACnet interface, a link which has been implemented to couple BACnet devices to the BCVTB. We present a case study where the interface was used to couple a whole building simulation program to a building control system to assess in real-time the performance of a real building. Third, we present the ADInterfaceMCC, an analog/digital interface that allows a USB-based analog/digital converter to be linked to the BCVTB. In a case study, we show how the link was used to couple the analog/digital converter to a building simulation model for local loop control.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-5446E</style></custom2></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thierry Stephane Nouidui</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Michael Wetter</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhengwei Li</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xiufeng Pang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prajesh Bhattacharya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philip Haves</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BACnet and Analog/Digital Interfaces of the Building Controls Virtual Test Bed</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proc. of the 12th IBPSA Conference</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11/2011</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sydney, Australia</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">p. 294-301</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-5446E</style></custom2></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xiufeng Pang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prajesh Bhattacharya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zheng O&#039;Neill</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philip Haves</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Michael Wetter</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trevor Bailey</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Real-time Building Energy Simulation using EnergyPlus and the Building Controls Virtual Test Bed</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proc. of the 12th IBPSA Conference</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11/2011</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sydney, Australia</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">p. 2890-2896</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Most commercial buildings do not perform as well in practice as intended by the design and their performances often deteriorate over time. Reasons include faulty construction, malfunctioning equipment, incorrectly configured control systems and inappropriate operating procedures (Haves et al., 2001, Lee et al., 2007). To address this problem, the paper presents a simulation-based whole building performance monitoring tool that allows a comparison of building actual performance and expected performance in real time. The tool continuously acquires relevant building model input variables from existing Energy Management and Control System (EMCS). It then reports expected energy consumption as simulated of EnergyPlus. The Building Control Virtual Test Bed (BCVTB) is used as the software platform to provide data linkage between the EMCS, an EnergyPlus model, and a database. This paper describes the integrated real-time simulation environment. A proof-of-concept demonstration is also presented in the paper.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-5390E</style></custom2></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trevor Bailey</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zheng O&#039;Neill</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Madhusudana Shashanka</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prajesh Bhattacharya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philip Haves</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xiufeng Pang</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Automated Continuous Commissioning of Commercial Buildings</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DoD SERDP-ESTCP Partners in Environmental Technology Technical Symposium and Workshop</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11/2010</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Washington, D.C.</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LBNL-5734E</style></custom2></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dean Nelson</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brian Day</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Geoffrey C.

Because convection and mass transfer are similar processes, the objective here is to visualize dye diffusion in nanofluids. It is observed that dye diffuses faster in nanofluids compared to that in water, with a peak enhancement at a nanoparticle volume fraction, &lt;em&gt;φ&lt;/em&gt;, of 0.5%. A possible change in the slope of thermal conductivity enhancement at that same &lt;em&gt;φ&lt;/em&gt; signifies that convection becomes less important at higher &lt;em&gt;φ&lt;/em&gt;. The enhanced mass transfer in nanofluids can be utilized to improve diffusion in microfluidic devices.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">419</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prajesh Bhattacharya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patrick E.

Recently a lot of research has been done in evaluating the thermal conductivity of nanofluids using various nanoparticles. In our present work we address this issue by conducting a series of experiments to determine the effective thermal conductivity of alumina-nanofluids by varying the base fluid with water and antifreeze liquids like ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. Temperature oscillation method is used to find the thermal conductivity of the nanofluid. The results show the thermal conductivity enhancement of nanofluids depends on viscosity of the base fluid. Finally the results are validated with a recently proposed theoretical model.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ravi S.

Normally, nanofluids have higher thermal conductivities than their base fluids. Therefore, it is of interest to predict the effective thermal conductivity of such a nanofluid under different conditions, especially since only limited experimental data are available. We have developed a technique to compute the effective thermal conductivity of a nanofluid using Brownian dynamics simulation, which has the advantage of being computationally less expensive than molecular dynamics, and have coupled that with the equilibrium Green-Kubo method. By comparing the results of our calculation with the available experimental data, we show that our technique predicts the thermal conductivity of nanofluids to a good level of accuracy.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6492</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prajesh Bhattacharya</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patrick E.
