The tool is open to complex topologies and systems that can be easily replicated to larger models. System topologies are built by just linking the components as they are in real life. Once the schematic is created, the modeler/user can build, edit and add components, connections or any data he or she considers relevant. The software for translating an IFC file to an EcosimPro schematic aims to select those HVAC parts that the user considers relevant, extract their data and properties and, finally, create in EcosimPro a schematic that will be an initial approximation to the model of that HVAC system from the IFC file: In addition, HVAC allows analyzing transient aspects due to fluid inertia, wall friction and heat transfer.Īs part of this modeling toolkit, software is included that is capable of interpreting a BIM model in IFC format and converting or translating the desired HVAC parts into a schematic in EcosimPro. The systems in which air conditioning devices are coupled with ventilation networks, wall heat transfer and control loops will be physically evaluated with HVAC. Boilers calculating the composition of burnt gases.Splitters, condensers, evaporators, fan-coils.HVAC also has macro-components for the typical air conditioning machines such as: Pump, fan and compressor components are provided with user-defined or generic performance maps.Air flow regulators and dampers, 3- and 4-way control valves, pressure regulators, etc.Pipes, ducts, tees, collectors, splitters, humidifiers, etc.

Rooms, fluid volumes, junctions (also simulating doors) and human thermal models (HTM).

HVAC provides the components for the typical basic elements used in air conditioning systems such as: The same component can work under liquid, gas or two-phase conditions. The HVAC library provides a palette of components and application examples. Furthermore, it takes into account the whole complexity of buildings and weather by accounting for solar radiation, wall capacitance and ground losses, amongst other phenomena. To do that, this software allows the transient simulation of fluid systems (mixture of gases plus one vaporizing liquid), combustion processes, performances analysis of HVAC systems combined with the modelling of buildings and rooms occupation (Building Performance Simulation). The aim of the HVAC toolkit is to place people at the center of the design of the heating, cooling and ventilation systems.
