Background of “Autotune” automatic calibration for building energy models.
Case Study 1 – Autotune recovery of original inputs from a manually de-tuned model.
Best result achieved CV(RMSE) = 1.68% and MBE = 0.42% in less than 2 h.
Over 50% of the 63 tunable parameters recovered within 10% of their original value.
Case Study 2 – Autotune yields similar results to expert calibrator in less time.
