Using LEAFHouse for model validation

While reACT transitions through its design, prototyping, and construction phases, we plan to use LEAFHouse to validate the dynamic simulation and optimization strategies developed for the SD 2017 competition. Specifically, our plans are to construct a virtual LEAFHouse located here on campus and compare the simulation's prediction of house performance over the current prediction horizon of one day to measured LEAFHouse power generation and consumption rates over the corresponding day.
