Question-and-Answer Resource for the Building Energy Modeling Community
 | 1 | initial version |
I am referring to the information you submitted in the other question you opened:
I want to measure the temperature variation and energy consumption in a room with and without inner plasterboard. I want to use Energyplus v8.5 software. I am asking that what interfaces (Openstudio or sketchup) I have to use?
You can look at Version Compatibility Matrix to Find out that if you must use E+ version 8.5 you will need to use OpenStudio version v1.12.4 and SketchUp 2016. You can find that release here but I am strongly recommend on using current versions. You will need to build your model geometry using Sketchup Open Studio Plugin and then continue within the OpenStudio application to edit Constructions, materials, loads ect.
In order to learn how to use OpenStudio you can use the Documentation web page.
