Release notes

Release 2021-02-03

  • Use air-tight interior floors in the modeling of the building
  • The module Catalog with the possibility to define new catalogs to use in projects

  • To examine the result in Excel, it is now possible to export the result to text file

  • Schedule for usage and ventilation flows are included in the report seption
  • Possibility to adjust the value for heated floor area generated from the 3D model
  • Impact from thermal bridges are added to the calculation when including basement in the building
  • New heat pumps from Bosch, IVT and Nibe are added to the default catalog
  • Windows with constant solar shading are added to the default catalog

  • Windows can be added to the calculation both as share of facade (%) and area (m2)
  • Possible to use ‘Default time’ instead of weekday when generating schemes for usage and Ventilation

  • Generating schemes for usage and ventilation are greatly improved with respect to speed and ease of use
  • Choose from one day to another when generating schemes, and ‘Hour to/from’ is replaced with ‘Start time/End time’ (time)
  • How the schemes are varying over the year is shown under ‘Details’. Possible to view a certain week.
  • Tutorials of the workflow are accessible within the application

  • Snap interval 0.5m in ‘Edit floor plan’
  • Possibility to change the construction of separate building parts with ‘Change building parts’
  • Copy the scheme from supply air to exhaust air and vice versa
  • English version available

  • Add several air handling units with different properties and air flow schemes
  • Function ‘’Export to VIP-Energy’. The area of the buildings parts and their constructions are exported and can be opened in VIP-Energy
  • Climate files for 2018 and 2019 from Sveby/SMHI are available
  • ’Copy’ is added in the name of a construction when a copy is created in the catalog
  • Possible to create an alternative of a typology, usage template and ventilation system by using ‘Create alternative’- ‘Alternative’ will be added in the name of the new created building

  • Possibility to add a lowest exhaust air temperature for exhaust air heat pumps
  • Air flow unit l/s is added

  • Exhaust air temperature and room temperature are added as indicators and can now be included in diagrammes in the report
  • Include basement in the building
  • Connect a geothermal rock heat pump to heat recovery from the exhaust air instead of to a ground source collector

  • Share building with access to write with another user
  • How many hours the heat pump has been out of order due to high/low temperature is printed out

  • New section in the report: ‘Surrounding conditions’, ‘Building’, ‘Heat supply’, ‘Cooling’ and ‘Specification of energy supply’
  • New indicators in the categories ‘Electricity’ and ‘Process energy’
