About General Heat Load Data

Explains the concept of general heat load data in the context of heat load calculations.

In the General heat load data section you enter basic settings for calculating the heat load of your building. All settings made here are valid for your entire project. Some settings, such as the ventilation system, can be modified in the respective structural level (building unit, ventilation zone, room) deviating from the values set here.

You start with the selection of the calculation basis and the input of building and climate data. The uniform standard outside temperature of -12 °C can be adjusted if required. In the next step, you define the shielding class, and the ventilation system. Depending on the selected standard, you can also define minimum temperatures for unheated building units and heat transfer systems.
