The use of an "Engineering Equation Solver" makes
much easier model development as well as system
simulation. A same set of equations can be used for
sizing and simulating a whole system.
This process is fully transparent : equations can be
displayed as in a text look, but they are written as
directly executable. Simplified models (set of
polynomial equations) can be generated at any time
on the basis of simulation results obtained with a
reference model. This makes easier the
interconnections among various subsystems as, for
example, the "primary" and "secondary" HVAC
subsystems and the building.
New model libraries can easily be built on this basis.
