To implement a simulation setup for a building performance simulation we recommend to stick to the following schema.
Fig. 1: Abstracted Schema
- Pass medium (single or multiple) through into the models on top level.
- Don't be confused that hydronic network and ventilation system is outside the building model (of course in reality it would be installed inside the building)
- The
Transfer
model converts the fluid's thermodynamic changes intoHeatPort
information. - Place all models that refer somehow to a control mechanism into the
Controller
area. For example does a thermostatic head belong into theController
section, whilst the radiator valve belongs into theTransfer
system.
