Özet:

The urgent need to generate electricity under contemporary environmental conditions increases the demand for renewable energy sources, primarily solar energy. To achieve the best integration between architecture and solar energy production, there are various designing software available. In this study, the engineering design of the proposed project was carried out using the well-known architectural program called the Revit. This software provides a Building Information Modeling (BIM) tool that analyzes the falling solar radiation on the specified location. BIM contributes to the selection of suitable space for the installation of the PV system based on location data and solar radiation analysis. Also, Revit software provides a 3D technique that is used in the design of proposed houses for purposes of this study. Based on BIM, regions with abundant solar radiation were chosen for the purpose of installing the PV system and exploiting them in energy production. A simulation of a 6.96 KWh grid-connected rooftop PV system was performed by using PVsyst and PV*SOL software. A 3D single family house that was proposed by the municipality of the Turkish city of Elazig was designed and simulated using PVsyst and PV*SOL software based on BIM. Comparison and evaluation were carried out for the annual energy yield, performance ratio, specific production and energy feed into the grid of the PV system from each software. It has been shown that very similar results are obtained from the simulations of these softwares.
