Minutes

Aachen Breakout groups

Topics:

• Next focus on individual libraries (10 min each including discussions).
• Refrigerants (Christian Vering).
• Linearized actuator model, and output signal of pressure-independent damper (Antoine Gautier).
• Vendor annotations in IBPSA library, or adding additional attribute (Michael Wetter).
• New models (geothermal (Massimo), heatpumps (physics-based, polynomial vs tables, Michael, Aachen))
• fan coil (Filip, Iago)
• additional validation in particular with measurements (parallel pumps, low flow in pressure drops, low lift heat pumps, borefields). Should some be in IBPSA_Validation library?
• Assign and clean up old issues.
• Other?

Joint sessions: BOPTEST, DESTEST (numerics?), library for MPC?

Block to overwrite control signals

Michael to check with Dave if this should be merged to master.

Update about refactoring of regression tests

Funnel included as comparison tool on a branch of BuildingsPy. Maybe another couple of weeks until we can test it externally.

New media R290

No discussions.

Weather data reader

No discussions.

Library restructuring

No activity other than assigning media.

Jianjun to check on https://github.com/ibpsa/modelica-ibpsa/issues/1072 and make a PR or fix remaining issues.

Open issues

See https://github.com/ibpsa/modelica-ibpsa/issues

New action items

Michael to fill in breakout groups for Aachen meeting.

Previous action items

1. Moritz to clean up examples of weather data reader in October, then do code review. See also https://github.com/ibpsa/modelica-ibpsa/issues/842, https://github.com/ibpsa/modelica-ibpsa/issues/950 and https://github.com/ibpsa/modelica-ibpsa/issues/1038
