Identifying the Simulation Engine Used

Guidance on determining the simulation engine used


Where to identify the simulation engine used

To find out which simulation engine was used for your project, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the project scenario you’re interested in
  2. Click on the light bulb icon to access the simulation settings
  3. Select “AI Model” to see the engine that was used

Simulation engine versions

  • PLW-v3-5: Initial microclimate engine
  • PLW-v6-6-4: Updated microclimate model with increased precision and terrain support (released August 14, 2024)
  • Cladding-v2: Initial cladding pressure engine
  • Cladding-v3-6: Updated cladding pressure engine (released May 22, 2024) with improved precision and adjusted wind profile naming.
  • Legacy projects run before logging was enabled (prior to January 15, 2024), will have no available entries. In these cases, it can be assumed that microclimate projects were run with PLW-v3-5 and cladding projects were run with Cladding-v2
