TRNSYS – FEATURES
1. Dynamic Building Simulation
- 3D import/export to Trnsys3d
- Arbitrary number of thermal zones
- Buffer zones like double facades / Atrium
- Arbitrary number of walls / window with any construction (Libraries of common glazing systems and construction material)
- Thermally activated slabs, capillary tubes and chilled ceilings
- Variable convective und radiative internal loads e.g. persons, artificial lighting, electrical devices etc.
- Exterior- and/or internal shading devices
- Building self shading
- Interzonal air change**
- Natural and mechanical ventilation**
- Integrated heating and cooling model
- Humidity calculation
- Intelligent control strategies for shading, ventilation, heating und cooling
- Local comfort evaluation acc. to EN ISO 7730
- Userdefined time step of the simulation
- Standard Weather data formats as well as userdefined format
- Extensive Output possibilities like air and surface temperatures, power and energy, etc.
2. Thermal System Simulation::
- Solar hot water systems
- Solar combi systems
- Userdefined HVAC – systems based on individual components
- Heat pump systems (as AddOn)
- Geothermal systems (as AddOn)
3. Fully coupled building and system simulation
Due to the modular structure and the high flexibility of connecting components TRNSYS is designed for completely coupled building and system simulation.
4. Other Simulationen
- Electrical systems with PV and wind turbines
