Audytor SET

[EE] The Audytor SET program is designed to support the design and adjustment of central heating installations, cold, hot and circulation water installations as well as central cooling installations in which the medium is water or water glycol solution.

The Audytor SET program is designed to graphically support the design and adjustment of central heating installations, cold, hot and circulation water installations as well as central cooling installations in which the medium is water or water glycol solution.

A program with a built-in mechanism for importing building bases from Autodesk® Revit® and exporting the installation design to Autodesk® Revit®.

The Audytor SET consists of the following modules:

• Individual modules cooperate with each other and use a common 2D and 3D graphic environment.
• The modules can also work indepedently if it is necessary to design only one system of installation (except for the FC module).
• Each module is activated by a separate license key
• icense keys run individual modules in the Basic or Pro version (except for the FC module - it does not function independently).
• It is possible to run the program using a trial license.
• The FC module extends the possibilities of other modules with additional functions.

The new Fast Calculation (FC) module in the SET Auditor provides the opportunity for simplified installation design. It also makes it possible to speed up the creation of professional designs

In professional design mode, elements of simplified design can be used to streamline the design process (fast estimation of heat loss in the absence of results from the OZC program, selection of space heating concepts, etc.).

Both the simplified design and the detailed professional design are saved in the same file, which facilitates further work with the project.

This function enables calculation of the value of room thermal load in a simplified manner based on a few basic parameters.

Thanks to this function, the designer can select the appropriate method of heating the room and get an idea of the type of heating equipment to be used in the room.

The surface layout suggested by the program can be inserted into the floor plan drawing.

When performing fast calculations, the program selects radiator power and duct diameters even if the heat source is not entered. From the default values declared in the general data, it inherits the parameters separately for the installation with radiators, separately for underfloor heating and places a virtual source in the resulting drawing.

This function makes it possible to perform calculations for a group of underfloor radiators during the design process, before the complete calculation of the installation. Thanks to this, it is possible to quickly test the response of the calculation results to individual data (e.g. supply temperature, heating floor structure, diameter of the pipes, spacing of pipes, division into several circuits, etc.).

The function of quick selection of underfloor radiators allows to determine:

• possible supply temperature range for individual radiators 
• maximum supply temperature for the indicated group of radiators 
• proposed division of coils in order to meet the criteria of maximum hydraulic resistance and maximum length   
• proposed division of coils in order to reduce the differences in resistance between coils and to facilitate hydraulic balancing of the installation.

The Audytor program has long been able to import drawings in many popular formats. DWG and DXF formats are particularly suitable for technical drawings. However, in market practice, a large part of the documentation is provided in PDF files. Although it is a general format and not addressed to technical drawings, due to frequent use, the Audytor SET software has the option of importing drawings also in this format.

The graphic design has been changed in the program - both in terms of the graphic style and window organization. Thanks to this, they have become even more transparent 

Tools for quickly dividing and connecting polygons that define hotplates. One field can be divided into two or three equal fields - horizontally or vertically, respectively. The user can also indicate a dividing line using a broken line. At the same time, the option of combining several cooking zones into one has been introduced.

These functions are especially useful when designing underfloor heating, but can be used for sharing
and joining other polygons (e.g. room zones).

Depending on the shape of the room and the assumed coil pipe laying system, it is possible to impose a way of drawing pipes "bypassing" concave corners.

The function of automatic insertion of a heating zone in the room zone (so-called insertion around the cursor).

Extended range of mixing group schemes with the possibility of local mixing at the manifold.

The ability to easily use one DWG file containing architectural plans of many floors.

The user can indicate which parts of the DWG file are to be used on each floor and then adjust their position using precision panning tools.

When selecting objects using the window, the selection window is filled with blue, which improves its readability.

Readability of selected objects has also been increased by displaying them with all details in green.

The functions Leave selected lines and Leave unselected lines allow you to narrow the range of selected objects. After selecting a number of elements in the drawing window, you can then remove from the selection the items indicated in the table or just leave those items.

When you turn on critical flow display, the other elements of the drawings are displayed less intensively. This makes it even easier to orient yourself in the course of critical circulation.

The option of temporarily turning off the display of labels during design, improves the readability of drawings on the screen in situations where labels are not necessary.

The ability to export to Microsoft Excel not only individual tables, but also all tables and diagnostics at once. This significantly reduces exporting time if you need to save a number of tables.

The program has been equipped with the latest cooperation module with DWG and DXF files.

It allows among others:

• Loading DXF and DWG drawings in the newest versions.
• UNICODE text support for most characters to be displayed correctly.
• Export of drawings in the following formats: DWG, DXF, PDF, SVG, CGM, HPHL, SWF.
• Significantly faster display of complex drawings thanks to the simplified paint function.
• A more realistic export of drawings to DXF and DWG files.
• Saving raster drawings in DXF and DWG files.
• More convenient management of drawing layers

The function allows to create layout of corresponding to the levels on which rooms have been defined in Autodesk® Revit®. The transfer of data takes place via a file generated in Autodesk® Revit® using the Audytor gbXML plugin.

• Possibility to import building bases from Autodesk® Revit® via a gbXML file, 
• Possibility to export data about the designed installation to Autodesk® Revit®..

A significant part of the parameters introduced at the beginning of defining the building are typical data for the entire building (the so-called default data). When entering general data, the user can define for each device default catalog symbol. This symbol is automatically assigned to each device in the drawing. The previously defined default catalog symbol can be changed at any time, also after inserting the device into the drawing. Changing the symbol of a device in the general data will change the symbols of all devices of a given type, unless the symbol has been “firmly” entered for a given device.

The data is edited in the table, which allows you to specify parameters for many drawing elements simultaneously. Linking the drawing to the table makes the element edited in the table highlighted in the diagram.

The data inheritance system allows you to:

• significant time savings at the data entry stage (without the need to repeatedly enter repeated data),
• very quick change of data in case of a change in design assumptions or creating variant projects.

• Import and export of drawings in DWG format
• The function of organizing the zones of risers in the development
• Data file backup system
• A mechanism that automatically generates an axonometric scheme of the designed installation
• Ability to display installation pipes with actual diameters
• Mechanism of intelligent duplication of installation elements
• The function of arranging labels on several storeys at the same time (in plan views and axonometry drawings) and a mechanism for duplicating labels on adjacent storeys
• Improving the drawing of sewage installations.
• A system of keyboard shortcuts to assign simple button combinations to the most used drawing tools.
• Improvements in editing drawing layer properties.
• Improvements in displaying information about the circulation by a given heater / receiver.  

Rakendusse saab andmeid sisestada plaanidel graafilise liidese kaudu või diagrammidel. Joonestatud elemente puudutav teave esitatakse plaanivaadetega seotud tabelites või diagrammidel. Tänu tabelipõhisele süsteemile on võimalik kiiresti muuta nii üksikute torude, radiaatorite ja liitmikega seotud andmeid, kui ka terveid komponentide gruppe. Iga süsteemi kuuluv komponent on varustatud valideerimis- ja tugisüsteemiga, mis kogub teavet sisestatavate koguste ja vastavate kataloogiandmete kohta.

Andmesisestuse lihtsustamiseks on tarkvaral:

• võimalus redigeerida samaaegselt mitut süsteemi komponenti;

• võimalus kasutada valmis plokke;

• nutikad funktsioonid, mis kopeerivad joonise detaile horisontaalselt ja vertikaalselt ning nummerdavad elemente vastavalt ümber;

• võimalus määratleda piiramatu arv kohandatud plokke, mis võivad koosneda mis tahes joonise osast;

• kiire ligipääs täiendavale teabele sisestavate koguste kohta;

• ekraaninupud, mis võimaldavad kiiret ligipääsu sagedamini kasutatavatele komponentidele;

• funktsioonid, mis seovad dünaamiliselt jooniseid tabelitesse kantud andmetega;

• funktsioonid, mis ühendavad automaatselt torudega liitmikke, radiaatoreid ja teisi süsteemi komponente;

• automaatne püstikute loomine plaanivaadete alusel;

• võimalus muuta andmeid tabelivormis, et määratleda mitme valitud komponendi andmeid samaaegselt;

• joonise ja tabeli vahelised seosed tõstetakse joonisel esile komponendi valimisel tabelist.

Iga süsteemi kuuluv komponent on varustatud valideerimis- ja tugisüsteemiga, mis kogub teavet sisestatavate koguste ja vastavate kataloogiandmete kohta ning kontrollib jooksvalt andmete õigsust.

See rakendus võimaldab luua süsteemi projekti täismahus graafilise dokumentatsiooni tänu võimalusele kuvada arvutustulemusi korruseplaanidel. Sageli tuleb projekteerimise käigus sisestada projekti kujutis. Kujutisi on võimalik sisestada avades faile, skaneerides või kleepides mujalt. Sisestamise järel vajavad kujutised sageli joondamist, kalibreerimist, vähendamist või täiendavat korrigeerimist.

Tehnilisi jooniseid (nt alusjooniseid) luuakse tänapäeval valdavalt arvutite abil. Need on seejärel saadaval elektroonilises vormingus failidena. Tehnilistele joonistele on sobivaimad vektorvormingud (nt DWG, DXF, WMF, EMF). Pildifaile on võimalik luua ka skaneeringutena. Sel juhul luuakse need pea alati rastervormingus (BMP, JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, GIF, ICO, PNG).

Üldjuhul tuleb pildi laadimisel sisestada andmeid dialoogiaknasse Picture (kujutis). Kui kujutis on rakendusse sisestatud, siis vajab see reeglina joondamist ja vähendamist. Hea elektroonilise tulemuse saavutamiseks võib kujutis vajada ka kalibreerimist. Rakenduses on võimalik valida skaneeringu resolutsioon ja kvaliteet ning salvestada skaneeritud dokumendid valitud graafilises vormingus. Rakendus ühildub TWAIN-standardil põhinevate printeritega.

Süsteemi projekteerimiseks on vaja tähistatud ruumidega joonist. Projekteerija saab joonistada ruume käsitsi või laadida neid koos plaanivaadetega küttekoormuse rakendusest (OZC 6.5). Kui hoone kolmemõõtmeline mudel loodi rakenduses OZC 6.5, siis saab plaanivaateid koos küttearvutustega importida rakendusse CH. Tabelivormis sisestatud hooned laetakse ruumide ja vastavate arvutustulemuste loendina.

Kõige mugavam viis rakenduste OZC 6.5 ja CH 4.0 kombineeritud kasutamiseks: 

1. hooneplaanide importimine DWG, DXF, WMF jt vormingutes failidena rakendusse OZC 6.5;

2. hoone 3D-mudeli loomine rakenduses OZC 6.5 ning soojusarvutuste teostamine;

3. tulemuste laadimine rakendusest OZC 6.5 rakendusse CH 4.0 (küttekoormus ja põrandaplaanid);

4. süsteemi projekteerimine rakenduses OZC 6.5 ja arvutuste läbiviimine.

Süsteemi on võimalik projekteerida kas diagrammivaates, plaanivaates või mõlemat kasutades. 
Süsteemi koostamisel plaanivaadetes, loob rakendus automaatselt lihtsa diagrammi, mis "ühendab" plaanivaated.

The program has a mechanism that automatically creates a set of project backups (up to 8 files).

Data files are backed up every time data is saved, with the new files overwriting the older files so that at least one copy of the file from each stage of the project work is always kept.

This function will allow you to recover the project file even if its last versions are overwritten or damaged.

• Hiirekursor muutub väikseks pildiks kõige sobivamast või viimatikasutatud funktsioonist.

• Kuvatakse lisaliinid, mis võimaldavad automaatset ühendamist kindlate liitepunktidega (nt radiaatorite liitekohad).

• Torusid on võimalik joonestada paaridena (varustus-/tagastusahel), millel on määratud vahed ja mis, vajadusel, ühendatakse automaatselt seadmetega (nt radiaatorite liitpunktidega).

• Torustike joonestamine polügoonse ahelana vähendab vajalike hiireklikkide arvu.

• Radiaatorite automaatne sisestamine akende alla.

• Radiaatorite automaatne ühendamine torudega.

• Võimalus kopeerida mis tahes joonise osa ühe korruse piires või järgmisel korrusel.

• Võimalus luua elementidest peegelkujutisi.

• Võimalus kasutada valmis plokke. Tarkvaraga kaasneb ka joonise standardosade (plokkide) andmebaas, mis sisaldab tüüposasid nagu püstakud, korteri- või kollektorsüsteemid, ning võimaldab kiiresti luua süsteemi jooniseid.

• Võimalus määratleda piiramatu arv kohandatud plokke, mis võivad koosneda mis tahes joonise osast. Eelmääratletud plokke on edaspidi võimalik kasutada ka teistes projektides.

The program is equipped with the function of automatic drawing of a heating pipe routing scheme in a spiral system.

Coils are created in all floor heaters on floor plans, taking into account the spacing of supply and return pipes as well as the indicated spacing between the pipes wherever possible, both in the basic zone and in edge zones.

The program also performs precise calculations of the generated coil length.

Programm kontrollib andmete sisestamisel pidevalt nende õigsust. See vähendab märkimisväärselt võimalike vigade hulka. Arvutusprotsessi käigus toimub täielik andmete valideerimine. Seejärel luuakse vigade, hoiatuste ja nõuannete nimekiri. Selles nimekirjas on välja toodud teave tähtsusastme ja probleemi asukoha kohta.

Arvutuste teostamise järel analüüsib programm saadud tulemusi. Luuakse teadete analoognimekiri. Põhjalik süsteemi diagnostika võimaldab projekteerijal hinnata koostatud projekti kvaliteeti. Rakendus on varustatud veakoha kiirotsinguga (leiab automaatselt tabeli, rea ja veeru, milles on valed andmed, või viitab vigasele komponendile joonisel).

The function allows you to export the installation project to a file that can later be loaded into Autodesk® Revit® using the Audytor SET plugin for Revit.

The function allows you to export from the data and export from the results. Export from data allows you to save even an incomplete installation project (not recalculating), for example, the arrangement of the water risers, or the layout of the radiators. Export from results allows us to use technical data of selected pipes and devices in Autodesk® Revit®, eg pipe diameters, valve settings, radiator sizes, and pipe spacing in underfloor heating. In addition, physical quantities are available, such as the medium speed, the power of the radiator, and pressure losses.

In the drawing of the automatically created installation diagrams, the Organize button that has been added, enables the intelligent positioning of the zones of risers based on the data from the storey's plan views.

The program maintains the order of the risers within individual installation systems (CH, CC and H2O).

The function is particularly useful for large projects, significantly reducing the time needed to manually move the risers' zones.

The parameters of the organizing function can be modified.

Andmete sisestamisel kontrollib programm automaatselt nende õigsust. Rakendus salvestab veateate ja tuvastatud vigadega seotud teabe veafailis. Vigade loendi aken on varustatud vigade lokaliseerimise funktsiooniga. Rakendus tõstab esile joonise osad ja tabelis leiduvad andmed, et tähistada elemente, mille puhul tekkis viga.

Veadiagnostika võimaldab projekteerijal hinnata projekti kvaliteeti. Rakendusel on kiire otsingumehhanism, mis viitab vea asukohale (leiab vigaste andmetega tabelid, read ja veerud ning tuvastab sobimatud komponendid paigaldise joonisel).

Arvutustulemusi on võimalik esitada nii graafilisel kui tabelikujul (joonis 7). Üksikuid süsteemi komponentide silte on võimalik vabalt muuta (valida kuvatavad väärtused ja siltide kujundus).

Kõigi tabelite vormingut on võimalik kohandada (valides kuvatavad read ja veerud, muutes kirjastiili) ja sorteerida vastavalt vabaltvalitud filtrile. 
Tabelid sisaldavad üld- ja üksikasjalikke tulemusi spetsiifiliste seadmete ja ahelate kohta ning materjalide ja liitmike nimekirju. 
Arvutustulemustega joonistel on valitud seadmega seotud andmetega sildid. Siltide vorming on täielikult kohandatav. Sildile saab kanda kõiki valitud elemendile kehtivaid tulemusi. Silte saab salvestada mitmes vormingus ja igal ajal uuesti muutmiseks avada.

Arvutustulemusi on võimalik välja trükkida plotteri või printeriga. Kasutaja saab valida joonise suuruse ja kasutada trükkimise eelvaadet, et otsustada, kuidas joonised trükitakse.

Kui joonis ei mahu ühele paberilehele, siis trükib rakendus selle osadena, mille saab omavahel kokku kleepida. Tänu sellele funktsioonile on võimalik ka kõige tavalisema A4 printeriga trükkida suuri jooniseid. Rakendus saab salvestada jooniseid ka DXF- ja DWG-vormingus failidena. Salvestatud jooniseid on võimalik avada ka muus tarkvaras, nt AutoCAD-is.

Arvutustulemuste tabeleid on võimalik välja trükkida ja avada teistes Windows-keskkonnas töötavates rakendustes (nt Excelis, Wordis jt).

Designers can draw heating systems using information about walls, windows and rooms, imported directly from Audytor HL software, or drawn in Audytor CH software.

The concepts of data inheritance and default data, as well as application of variables make the process of entering data on heating systems fast and flexible. Parameters of equipment are stored in tables, that enable easy and fast modification of one, several, or even all components of heating systems.

The program allows simultaneous input and modification of water supply, heating and cooling installations, which significantly improves the design process.

A common 3D model of all three installations facilitates the analysis of installation collisions occurring in the project.

Designers can create many heating systems in one project, or even in a single drawing. Heating systems alone can include even several thousands of radiator components.

The proprietary (graphic engine enables the design of very large installations containing even several thousand items, receivers and taps.

The software selects diameters of pipes and insulation of pipes, presets of accessories, dimensions of radiators, flat stations, low loss headers, heat buffers, pumps, pump groups and many other components of heating systems.

Program is equipped with a highly efficient analysis algorithm of graph installations and efficient algorithms of selection of pipes, fittings and accessories, which allow to calculate large installations in in less than a few seconds.

Designers can use the editor of labels, creating overview of materials and components of heating systems in order to prepare technical documentation of projects. Diagrams of heating systems can be divided into any number of drawings. Drawings themselves can be exported into the DWG format.
