Achieving Excellence with IESVE Essential Knowledge Series

IESVE for HVAC Simulation

On-Demand Webinar

We’re delighted to announce our new ‘Achieving Excellence with IESVE’ essential knowledge series, covering the latest need-to-know industry developments, trends and technology for building performance modelling. Targeted at existing IESVE users, this series of monthly webinars will offer a deep dive into a variety of our most requested topics including: Compliance, HVAC, Interoperability, Measurement and Verification and more. Inspiring you to expand your service offerings and meet ever evolving client needs.

This knowledge session will support the analysis of HVAC simulation through the Virtual Environment’s ApacheHVAC application.

ApacheHVAC is a tool for detailed, flexible, component-based HVAC system design, sizing and modelling – it contains a variety of user-friendly routes to help modellers start their HVAC journey and this session is intended to expose that capability.
ApacheHVAC enables the performance and control of a building's HVAC system to be simulated and interrogated that provides designers the opportunity to compare proposed design solutions in the confidence they will perform as intended.

The session is intended to be informative both to modellers with and without ApacheHVAC experience.

What will be covered?

  • The advantages of detailed HVAC modelling over simple system modelling
  • An introduction to ApacheHVAC via the HVAC System Wizard
  • Utilising the ApacheHVAC System Library
  • An introduction to new features including Central Plant Heat Pumps
  • Auto-sizing the HVAC network
  • Generating zone and system loads reports
  • Utilising energy meters
  • Assessing HVAC performance within VistaPro
