title = "Implementation of an interface between a CFD energy analysis and an IFC building product model",
abstract = "The paper presents an implementation of a user interface for the Capture and Refinement of CFD Data for Building Energy Analysis (CaRCA) that allows interaction with building data in a context and language familiar to the CFD engineer. This is made possible by the use of an International Standards Organisation - Standard for the Exchange of Product Model data (ISO-STEP) compliant building product model (BPM). The BPM used is the International Alliance for Interoperability (IAI) developed Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) schema. This allows early introduction of the CFD engineer to the building lifecycle and a method for recorded validation of CFD predictions.",
