ENERGY ANALYSIS / SYSTEM DESIGN SOFTWARE
HAP Hourly Analysis
Peak Load Calcs HVAC System Sizing Energy Modeling |
HAP is a dual function program - full-featured load estimating and system sizing for commercial buildings plus versatile hour-by-hour energy and operating cost analysis. Thermal loads are calculated using the ASHRAE®1-endorsed Transfer Function load method. System components are sized using the System-Based Design concept, which applies the ASHRAE-endorsed Heat Extraction Methodology to link system performance to building thermal loads. Energy analysis uses full 8760 hours-per-year analysis to evaluate the operation of a wide variety of air handling and plant equipment. Operating costs are computed based on energy use and demand charges. A wide range of tabular and graphical outputs is available.

Building System Optimizer
Energy Modeling |
Rapidly compares energy cost performance of HVAC system and equipment designs in commercial buildings. Supports applications in the schematic design phase of projects where multiple designs are being evaluated to identify one or a small group of alternatives with the most promising energy performance. Streamlined user interface allows analyses to be configured in minutes. Building System Optimizer is "powered by HAP" - calculations utilize HAP simulation engines to perform detailed hour-by-hour energy analysis for accuracy and credibility.

Engineering Economics
Life Cycle Costs |
Tool used to compare the lifecycle economics of alternative designs for HVAC systems and buildings. The program permits four types of economic analysis studies to be performed (1) simple payback analysis, (2) simple cash flow analysis, (3) private sector lifecycle analysis, (4) public sector lifecycle analysis. All four are bundled in one seamlessly integrated package.

Commercial Invest
PKG RTU Life Cycle Costs |
Effective Tool (Powered by HAP) used to compare energy costs and payback of DX rooftop units. Compare existing rooftop units, new baseline rooftop units, and high efficiency units. Quickly adjust $/kw-hr, efficiency de-rate of aged equipment, and add in maintenance and repair costs. Great for repair or replace analysis and standard vs high efficiency analysis.

Chiller System Optimizer Chiller Life Cycle Costs |
Effective Tool (Powered by HAP) used to compare energy costs and payback of Chiller systems. Compare up to 4 different chiller systems (existing or new) at once in different configurations (primary-secondary, VPF, constant, base-trim, equal unloading, etc). The tool uses building load, local climate, and a full chiller performance, tower performance and pump performance to compare your total SYSTEM PART LOAD VALUE. A much more accurate way to compare chiller systems than IPLV & NPLV. Ask your Sales Rep for a FREE COPY or ask your sales rep to run a report for you! |
