Comprehensive set of zone air distribution (terminal) units including cooled beams, direct air, dual duct CAV, dual duct VAV, single duct CAV reheat, single duct VAV. Hvac simulation software full#
Full set of EnergyPlus HVAC outputs can be generated including system node temperatures, flow rates and humidity levels at sub-hourly intervals. Graphical representation of zones featuring drag and drop facilities for ADUs (air distribution units), radiant heating/cooling devices, fan coil units, etc. Zone groups allow multiple zones having similar system types to be grouped together simplifying the HVAC diagram layout and speeding data entry. All 10 ASHRAE 90.1 baseline HVAC system types are included. Templates for component data, e.g.boilers, chillers and performance curves etc.
Extensible library of E+ components including boilers, chillers, heating coils, heat pumps, cooling coils, pumps, fans, humidifiers, set-point managers, etc. Select from a range of fully connected HVAC templates or define bespoke systems manually. Graphical definition of hot and chilled water supply, condenser and air loops through placement of components, mixers and splitters. In EnergyPlus the HVAC and building 3D models are simulated simultaneously to ensure the dynamic interaction between the building and systems is treated accurately. Both air and water sides are treated together in full detail with a good range of components including all ASHRAE 90.1 baseline HVAC systems. The most commonly used EnergyPlus HVAC system types are all available in DesignBuilder. However HVAC systems can be defined manually from scratch if required for more bespoke system types. Pre-defined HVAC templates, autosizing and zone grouping features save significant input time compared to competing products. A wide range of autosizable system templates can be loaded pre-connected and all systems can be customised either at the placement stage or afterwards after placement.
