Abstract: This paper proposes a method for optimizing the design and construction process of heat source systems that enables designers to continuously obtain information on the performance and costs of various heat source system configurations. A case study on the heat source system of an existing building was conducted using a simulation model, and Pareto optimal solutions for energy and lifecycle costs were determined for each heat source system configuration. Subsequently, the optimized design and construction process resulting from the proposed method and the conventional optimization were compared in terms of the life-cycle cost and energy consumption reduction effects. The results of subject tests confirmed that integrating building information modeling and simulation using the proposed method improves both the working time and precision.
