Details on Settings (Project Level Heating)
Information about the Settings tab (project level) of the scheme generator for the trade Heating.
In the Settings you can make general default settings for the scheme construction and the pipe network calculation. The settings apply to the whole project. The Settings are only visible when you are in the Building structure at storey or project level.
You are here:
Pipe run connection in the intermediate floors
Collective pipe run connection, Single pipe run connection, Crossover T-piece
Defines how the pipes are connected to the pipe run.
| Type of pipe run connection | Construction in the generated scheme |
|---|---|
| Collected pipe run connection |  |
| Single pipe run connection |  |
| Connection with Crossover T-piece |  |
Material
Pipe material ...: Opens the Pipe tables dialog where you can specify the material for the entire pipe network.
Pipe run material...: Opens the Pipe run material dialog, where you can specify different pipe run material for the pipe run.
Basement material...: Opens the Basement material... dialog, where you can specify a different pipe material for the pipes in the basement.
Valves: Opens the Valves dialog where you can compile a valve preselection for the pipe network calculation.
Configuration...: Opens the Settings dialog, in which presettings for the pipe network calculation can be made.
Manufacturer selection...: Opens the Manufacturer selection dialog, in which you select a manufacturer to make its product data set available in the Pipe tables dialog.
Plot
Distance between consumers
Sets the clear distance between the consumers in the scheme.
Text height
Sets the text height of the label.
Show sheet format
Enabled: The scheme is given a sheet frame including title block.
Label consumer
Enabled: The consumers are labeled with the flow path number, mass flow, rate, capacity, and valve setting. The consumers are labeled only when the scheme is generated as a labeled plan. If you have selected w/o labeling, consumers are also not labeled.
Height above floor
Sets the height of the label above the floor in the scheme.
Concept values for building component appliances
In the concept phase, it is often not yet possible to provide information on pressure losses and water volumes for the calculation of a scheme. Concept values for elements (apartments, rooms, ...) that were transferred from the building structure to the scheme are specified here. Default values are entered in the Pressure Loss and Water Volume per kW fields, which you can change at any time.
