Revision history [back]

As the author of DOE2Translator, I can tell you that it was intended to translate DOE-2.1e into an EnergyPlus input file but not DOE-2.3. I do not believe there is a way to translate DOE-2.3 into DOE-2.1. I do not think it would be an effective path to get DOE-2.3 files into EnergyPlus files.

I'm not as familiar with DOE2EP but I believe that was developed for a specific project in California by Joe Huang to translate a bunch of prototype buildings from DOE-2.1 to EnergyPlus. I would think you would have similar problems using it for DOE-2.3 as you would with the DOE2Translator. I am not sure that it is available, you would have to contact the author.

As far as BTAP, you can see more about it in answer to this question.
