Create Curve Data for Pressure Losses in Ventilation Components
Shows step-by-step how to create custom data sets for ventilation components.
Before you begin
You want to create manufacturer-specific data sets for ventilation components with corresponding pressure losss data to assign them later to ventilation components in your model.
Requirements:
You have manufacturer-related component data for ventilation components.
Navigate to:
Procedure
- Open the context menu in the Manufacturer row via the function button
and select Create entry. The Create manufacturer dialog opens.
- Enter a manufacturer name and confirm the entries with OK.
- In the Model series row, open the context menu via the function button and select Create entry.
The Create model series dialog opens.
- Enter a name for the model series and select a Connection geometry from the drop-down list.
- Optional: Select the options with damper positions and/or interpolate.
- In the Nominal diameter row, open the context menu via the function button and select Create entry.
The Create nominal diameter dialog opens.
- Depending on the selected connection geometry, enter a nominal diameter (round pipe) or two values for the side lengths a and b (rectangular duct).
- Enter an article number.
- Confirm the entries with OK.
- Optional: If you have previously selected the option with damper positions, open the context menu in the row Damper position via the function button and select Create entry. Note: You can define several damper positions for each article and then specify them with individual volume flow and pressure loss data.
- Enter the data for the volume flow V and the pressure loss dp in the table. The entered data is displayed as a pressure loss curve in the curve diagram.
Results
You have created a component dataset for a ventilation component with curve data. The data can now be assigned to ventilation components via the Technical data dialog.
