Reference for program type library

Hi,

I would like to know the reference for the program type library values. I tried looking into ASHRAE 90.1 but could not find anything relevant.

See OpenStudio standards.

I have looked through the Open Studio standards github. What is remarkable is it has no references as to where the data contained in these standards originates. Trying to get students to critique the origins of these data is problematic, when there are no sources to examine. Not for you to solve - merely interesting at present.

Thank you, @MichaelDonn! @chris or @mdahlhausen should be able to help with your question.

The openstudio-standards data is primarily from ASHRAE 90.1 directly, and the data is organized by template, e.g. “90.1-2010”. The source is the standard and its reference manuals. We are in the processing of moving the data into a formal database, which is also used in the model to determine the official ASHRAE 90.1 savings numbers. Typical building assumptions are from ComStock, and are usually noted as such in the data .jsons if different from the 90.1 standard.
