Simulation procedure

This is a short description of a simulation procedure.

For detailed information to the several steps follow the links.

The elements of the navigation tree lead you step by step through all the necessary inputs.

Project

Start with the definition of the general project information.

Files / Measured data

Are additional data or files are needed for the calculation, load it into the programm.

Case

Remark all alterations and characteristics of the current case variation and define the simulation period.

Climate

Select the boundary conditions. This can be either a climate from the WUFIplus database or user defined. Additional optional climates can be defined (e.g. ground, attached zones).

Building

Model the simulation building.

For plain geometries use the 'building wizard' to generate the simulation envelope. For more complex geometries use the '3D editor'.

Heated Zones

Create the several heated zones within the simulation envelope.

Zone

Make the stettings for the several zones.

Visualized Components

Allocate the components to the respective zone.

Define and asign the assemblies.

Set the parameters for surface, initial conditions and numerics.

Inner Loads

The occuring inner loads by machines or occupants can be defined in profiles by the hour.

Design Conditions

The design conditions for the zone are defined by the hour as well.

These values are setpoints for the HVAC system.
