Building Simulation

The software simulates the thermal behaviour of a building at an hourly resolution. Accurate information about the behaviour of a building at any desired point in time can be calculated from the detailed building characteristics, usage profiles and location-specific climate data.

Basic function

• Dynamic 2D/3D modelling
• Calculation of the transient thermal response of rooms and buildings (in accordance with the German VDI 6007 standard)
• Presentation of temperature curves (indoor air, outdoor air, perceived temperature, etc.)
• Identification of over- or under-heating hours
• Generation of detailed outputs, including graphical reports and CSV tables
• Effects of shading caused by neighbouring objects such as buildings, trees etc.
• Quickly assign rooms to pre-defined zones or add user-defined zones
• IFC and gbXML import and export (optional)

New in the 3D version:

• Checks compliance with summer overheating protection in accordance with the DIN 4108-2 standard for simulation
• Import and export of DWG/DXF drawings

Additional cooling load module

• A cooling load calculation (in accordance with the German VDI 2078 standard) can be carried out based on the building simulation results.
