= Overview of WUFI's Dialog Structure =

<P>
This list contains a description of all menu items and of all dialogs, including
dialogs which are not directly accessible via the menus, but as sub-dialogs of
other dialogs:
</P>

=== Project: ===

[[Bild:MenuProject.gif]]

* <B>New Project</B>
Wipes WUFI's memory clean and starts a new, empty
[[Glossary:Glossary-1D | project]].<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
The [[1D:Dialog_Project | <B>project</B> dialog]] opens which
allows you to give a name to the project and which serves as a memo pad
for some administrative project info.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* <B>New Case</B>
Creates a new [[Glossary:Glossary-1D | case]] within the current
[[Glossary:Glossary-1D | project]].<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
The [[1D:Dialog_Case | <B>case</B> dialog]] opens which
lets you enter a case name and remarks.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>    
If any other cases already exist in the present project, an additional window
is displayed in the dialog which allows to copy selected data over from those
other cases.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* <B>Remove Selected Case</B>
Serves to delete cases which are not needed any more.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* <B>Open</B>
Displays the usual 'Open' dialog from which you can open existing project files
(which contain the input data and the calculation results, if any).<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* <B>Reopen</B>
Displays a list of projects you have previously worked with so that you can
easily open them by simply selecting them from this list.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* <B>Save</B>
Saves the input data and (after a calculation has been performed) the
calculation results to the project file.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
You <I>should</I> save the project before a calculation in case something
goes wrong; you <I>must</I> save again after the calculation if you want
to keep the results for later.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
If you do not want to archive the results, excluding all or part of the result
data via the [[1D:Dialog_OptionsResultData | dialog &quot;Options | Result
Data&quot;]] will give you a much smaller project file.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* <B>Save As...</B>
Saves the current [[Glossary:Glossary-1D | project]] under a new name.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>  
The old project file, if any, continues to exist under the old name.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
<B>Close</B>
Closes WUFI. But why should you want to?<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>

=== Inputs ===

[[Bild:MenuInputs.gif]]

(these dialogs are also directly accessible from the project
explorer on the left side of the screen)<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_Assembly | <B>Assembly / Monitor Positions</B>]] <br> Here you define the [[Glossary:Glossary-1D | assembly]] of the [[Glossary:Glossary-1D | building component]] by specifying the layer sequence and the layer thicknesses as well as the [[Details:Material | material parameters]] of the individual layers.<BR> You can also select an appropriate [[Glossary:Glossary-1D | numerical grid]], specify [Glossary:Glossary-1D | monitoring positions]] at locations where the hygrothermal behavior of the component shall be analysed in detail, and add [[1D:Dialog_HygrothermalSources | hygrothermal sources and sinks]] to the component. 
** [[1D:Dialog_MaterialData | <B>Material Data</B>]]<br> This dialog displays the [[Details:Material | material data]] for the highlighted layer and allows you to edit them.
** [[1D:Dialog_MaterialDatabase | <B>Material Database</B>]]<br> In this dialog you can select the [[Details:Material | material data]] for the highlighted layer from the material database.
** [[1D:Dialog_ConstructionDatabase | <B>Example Cases</B>]]<br> In this dialog you can select an assembly from the construction database and transfer it to the assembly dialog.
** [[1D:Dialog_HygrothermalSources | <B>Hygrothermal Sources</B>]]<br> You can specify heat, moisture and air change sources (or sinks) for the highlighted layer.
*** [[1D:Dialog_EditHygrothermalSources | <B>Edit Hygrothermal Sources</B>]]<br> Specify the location and the properties of the sources.
&nbsp;<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_Orientation | <B>Orientation / Inclination / Height</B>]]<br> This dialog serves to define the orientation, inclination and height of the building component. These data are needed to calculate the [[Details:Climate | rain and radiation loads]] incident on the surface.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_SurfaceTransferCoefficients | <B>Surface Transfer Coefficients</B>]]<BR> In this dialog you define the [[Details:Surface | surface transfer coefficients]], such as the [[Details:HeatTransfer | heat transfer coefficient]], the [[Details:ShortWave | radiation absorptivity]], [[Details:RainReductionFactor | rain reduction factor]] etc.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_InitialConditions | <B>Initial Conditions</B>]]<BR> The initial temperature and moisture distributions are specified in this dialog (e.g. a dry component or one with trapped construction moisture).
** [[1D:Dialog_InitialMoisture | <B>Initial Moisture</B>]]
** [[1D:Dialog_InitialTemperature | <B>Initial Temperature</B>]]<BR> These dialogs serve to specify initialisation files which describe the initial moisture or temperature profiles in the component, if these are to be read from files.<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_Time | <B>Calculation Period / Profiles</B>]]<BR> Here you tell WUFI for which period of time the simulation shall be carried out (e.g. the simulation is to span one year, starting on June 1st).<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
You can also specify the width of the time steps used for the calculation.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_Numerics | <B>Numerics</B>]]<BR> The options offered by this dialog allow you to control the way the calculation is done.<BR>
&nbsp;<BR>
* [[1D:Dialog_Climate | <B>Climate: Outdoor (Left Side)</B>]]
* [[1D:Dialog_Climate | <B>Climate: Indoor (Right Side)</B>]]<BR> These dialogs serve to specify the [[Details:Climate | weather]] acting on the left or right side of the component, respectively.
** <B>Map/File</B><br> If you want to read the climate data from a file, use this tab to specify and analyse the file.
*** <B>Select Climate File</B><br> Select the desired climate file:
**** [[1D:Dialog_SelectClimateFileFromMap | <B>Select from map</B>]]<BR> If you want to use one of the climate files supplied with WUFI, specify it by clicking on the respective location on the map.
**** [[1D:Dialog_SelectClimateFileFromBrowser | <B>Select user-defined file</B>]]<BR> If you want to use a climate file from a different source, select it with the file browser
*** [[1D:Dialog_ClimateFileDetails | <B>Detailed Options</B>]]<BR> Depending on the climate file type, additional options may be available.
** <B>Sine Curves</B><BR> You may use simple sine curves as climate conditions.
** <B>EN 13788</B><BR> You may have the interior climate derived from the exterior climate by the method described in DIN EN ISO 13788.
** <B>EN 15026</B><BR> You may have the interior climate derived from the exterior climate by the method described in EN 15026.
** <B>ASHRAE 160P</B><BR> You may have the interior climate derived from the exterior climate by the method described in ASHRAE Standard 160P.
