Plus:HowTo

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

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

Building

Modelling of the 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

Define the stettings for the several zones.

Visualized Components

allocate the components to the respective zone define the assemblies set the parameters for surface, initial conditions and numeric

Inner Loads

occuring inner loads by machines or occupants can be defined by the hour

Design Conditions

design conditions for the zone are defined by the hour as well. these values are setpoints for the HVAC system

Other Parameters

Attached Zones

3D-Objects

Remaining elements

HVAC
