2018-06-28 09:12:03 -0500 marked best answer develop hot water use data for different types of residential houses

I intend to develop daily hot water use data in 6 minute intervals for a year, for a single household. I want to segregate the end uses by shower, dishwasher and clothes washer. I also seek to develop this data for different residential homes based on how many people are living there, how many rooms are there in the house etc.

I am new to EnergyPlus, and have basic idea of operations. But I am having trouble deciding the starting point for this synthesis; what files should i use for developing these. I would greatly appreciate some guidance on setting this up in energyplus.

Thanks, Yash
