Efficient cooling load calculator and hydraulic design software to improve energy efficiency

Every building requires some level of cooling to be comfortable, and achieving this level of comfort is entirely dependent on having a properly sized air conditioning system. How do you know if your air conditioner is the appropriate size? This can be accomplished by using cooling load calculator software.

By accurately performing advanced engineering calculations, the cooling load calculator simplifies installation for engineers and building services. A properly installed air conditioning system improves a building's energy efficiency while also keeping occupants comfortable at all times. The computer program correctly performs complex technical calculations, reducing the possibility of human error and speeding up the installation process for HVAC engineers.

It has the potential to automate a number of time-consuming and difficult tasks, allowing engineers to complete their projects more quickly. The cooling load calculator for air conditioning calculations allows contractors to precisely size ducts and equipment. It also takes into account any changes to the building's structure and examines the duct system's airflow requirements for a smooth installation.

Optimal performance with efficient cooling load calculator software

The cooling load calculator will consider various sources of direct and indirect cooling gains in order to recommend the best system for installation to building engineers. The cooling load calculator for air conditioning provided by a leading provider of building services software, such as ACADS-BSG, can be useful to project engineers.

The rooms' walls are built of a variety of materials and sizes. CAMEL+ cooling load calculator software by ACADS-BSG contains a large number of preconfigured walls whose dimensions may be estimated straight from AutoCAD designs. With a single click, 2D drawings may be transformed into 3D models and printed.

HVAC designers can enter project information that is shared throughout the facility. The cooling load calculator for air conditioning's preset conditions can be easily adjusted to meet the specific project requirements. The program computes the cooling load hourly, taking into account thermal storage on a given design day in a given month. In the CAMEL+ cooling load calculator for air conditioning, specific 3 pm design dry and wet bulb temperatures are accessible for over 600 sites in Australia and other countries.

Top features of CAMEL+ cooling load calculator

• Evaporative coolers, both direct and indirect
• Humidity control systems and air-to-air heat exchangers
• With and without coil reset, CAMEL+ estimates chiller, AHU, zone, and room cooling loads and air quantities, boiler, zone, and room heating loads, and reheat amounts, as well as room temperatures.
• CAMEL+ cooling load calculator calculates the cooling load hourly, taking into account thermal storage on each design day of the year. It also calculates each AHU's heating load.

KOALA cooling load calculator

KOALA is another useful cooling load calculator for small buildings by ACADS-BSG. It's a streamlined version of the well-known and widely used cooling load calculator CAMEL+. KOALA building services software will be very useful to designers and contractors working on the installation of air conditioning systems in small business and residential buildings. KOALA can generate a load chart for up to ten zones in a building.

Top features of KOALA cooling load calculator

• Users may use the software to analyse structures in either the Northern or Southern Hemispheres, and they can insert their own design criteria for places that aren't covered by the programme.
• Overhangs and reveals can provide shade for windows.
• For all items of input, contact-sensitive assistance is offered.
• On the Windows and External Walls & Roofs screens, graphics are supplied to aid users in double-checking their input data.

Hydraulic design software to design and calculate the fire protection system

As modern structures evolve, designing building services becomes more difficult. Because there are so many complexities and components, analysing the overall picture is extremely difficult. You can quickly calculate, create, size, and refine fire prevention systems using HYENA+ hydraulic design software by ACADS-BSG.

Main features of HYENA+ hydraulic design software are:

• The cloud-based application is accessible from anywhere. It available to anybody who has access to the internet, no matter where they are.
• To support easy data input, a sequence of easy-to-navigate panels with several useful elements such as drop-down lists, selection lists, multiple sort choices, are used.
• All nodes that aren't nominated as discharges or input points are automatically designated as reference nodes, requiring simply elevation assignments. This saves a lot of time when entering data.
• Fire hydrant systems, with or without hoses or hose reels, can be analysed.
• Up to ten input sites can be modelled as a fixed pressure, town mains water supply, or via a pump in the network piping system.

Apart from cooling load calculator and hydraulic design software, ACADS-BSG has developed a variety of other useful building services software, including WOMBAT for acoustic calculations, LLAMA for lift design, PYTHON for hot and chilled water design, SPRINK2000 for fire hydrant, and many more

Acads-Bsg is a leading building service design software firm. We aim to provide building services designers with the software to design and check services.
