Hi dear simlab-jeplus users:
1) To create job list file in a text file, it is so much better to program a general code for producing joblist.txt in a programming environment like MATLAB. Since using programming, the joblist.txt could be generated in a fraction of a millisecond for thousands of jobs. As all can see in the simlab-jeplus video tutorial, the creation of joblist.txt is time consuming and is not a good way.
2) Please bear in mind that the generated numbers using different sampling methods are up to several decimal places and sometimes E+ cannot run them, in particular for material properties of glazing. Thus it is highly recommended that the generated numbers be rounded to one or two decimal places.
3) I would like to know that for studying on the global sensitivity analysis of building energy performance, how many sample points are needed using simlab-jeplus to have a definitive and logical answer and how much time does it take to finish the sensitivity analysis process ? Based on my experience, more than 2000 sample points are needed to have a definitive sensitivity analysis (of course for variance-based method).
Bests regards,
