Description

CYPEHVAC Hydronics designs water distribution installations for air conditioning. It designs radiators (two-pipe system), fan coils, boilers and heat pumps, assigning the loads to each of these elements.

CYPEHVAC Hydronics is built into the Open BIM workflow. The program obtains the geometry of the building and the thermal loads calculated in the CYPETHERM LOADS program from the BIM project to which it is linked.

 

How it works

Users enter the terminal units and assign their simultaneity. From this moment on, the program can design these units (without entering pipes or generating units) taking into account the thermal loads of each space imported from the linked Open BIM project. Thermal loads can also be entered manually in CYPEHVAC Hydronics.

Next, users can enter the generators and connect them to the terminal units by means of pipes. The program, already connected to the installation, can carry out its complete design (terminal units, pipes and generators).

CYPEHVAC Hydronics allows users to partially design units and pipes with no need to enter the entire installation.

Open BIM workflow

CYPEHVAC Hydronics is built into the Open BIM workflow via the BIMserver.center platform. The program currently has the following information exchange with the linked BIM model:

• Imports
  
  
  • 3D view
    “CYPEHVAC Hydronics” displays the 3D view of all models imported during the connection to the BIM model.
    
    
  • Thermal loads
    “CYPEHAVC Hydronics” imports the thermal loads calculated in the CYPETHERM LOADS program.
    
    
• Exports
  "CYPEHVAC Hydronics" exports an IFC file format containing:
  
  
  • The 3D model of the installation (GLTF)
    "CYPEHVAC Hydronics" provides the 3D representation of the designed installation in GLTF format to the linked BIM model so that it is visible in all 3D views of the applications connected to the BIM model of the project.
