Linking with Print Templates

sisHYD primarily supplies 2 kinds of printed designs:

• Representation of network supervision (network sketch or schematic view)
• Profile plots

For the documentation of these designs, just the design is usually framed and provided with a text field. This is precisely the task (and additional functions, described below) that PrintPrep executes. PrintPrep enables templates to be prepared, into which design content and additional information is transferred. Using the PrintPrep toolbox, the templates can be used and printed with one click.

Print Templates Elements

Print Templates makes possible to produce templates for printing. These templates contain:

• Pure CAD elements, like the border DIN of the canvas.
• Specially marked areas (PrintPrep frames), which are filled at a later point when the template is used.
• Different kinds of placeholders for texts, which are replaced then the template is used.

Basic functions of PrintPrep

• Interactive, true to scale selection of design details for place holders in the template (any rotations can be set).
• Transmission of calculation information into the title block (rotation, scale of required design details, date, time).

Special functions of sisHYD for PrintPrep

• After selection of a detail, no legend is normally present in the selected range. sisHYD supplies the function (sishyd_legende), with which a PrintPrep viewport is filled with the legend.
• Text functions name the calculation, the project, and the variable:
  • The argument is the name of the PrintPrep Viewport (to determine the assigned network calculation)
  • Network – Name of the calculated network from the dialog Network
  • Calculation – Name of the calculation from the dialog "static network calculation"
  • Description – Comment on the network calculation from the "stationary network calculation" dialog
  • Project – File name of the last project save
  • Medium – Name of the calculated medium from the "stationary network calculation" dialog – relevant for gas networks
    • Variable Name of the calculated variable from the dialog "static network calculation"
    • Not for text nodes, but as argument for the framework mode "sisXXX"
    • Example: sishyd_legende/Ausschnitt1 writes the legend for the drawing of the PrintPrep framework named "Ausschnitt1" in the marked PrintPrep viewport
  • Legend – Draw a legend for a PrintPrep viewport
• Evaluation functions for the transmission of calculation results into the plot. All evaluation functions receive the names of the desired network object as argument:
  • The argument is the name of a network object"
    • Node pressure – Pressure of a node
    • Node temperature – Temperature of a node
    • Node pressure height – Hydraulic pressure of a node
    • Element mass flow – Mass flow of the element
    • Element entry flow rate – Entry flow rate of an element
    • Element exit flow rate – Exit flow rate of an element
    • Element entry temperature – Entry temperature of an element
    • Element exit temperature – Exit temperature of an element
    • Element pressure loss – Pressure loss of an element
    • Element entry pressure – Entry pressure of an element
    • Element exit pressure – Exit pressure of an element
      • The argument is the name of a network object, whereby the running number of the object can be given in alphabetical order above the name
      • Example: h_versorger_leistung ("#1") determines the performance of the first supplier
    • Name of the evaluation function – Task:
    • Supplier name – Name of a supplier
    • Supplier performance – Feeding performance of a supplier
    • Supplier mass flow – Mass flow of a supplier
    • Supplier entry flow rate – Entry flow rate of a supplier
    • Supplier exit flow rate – Exit flow rate of a supplier
    • Supplier entry temperature – Entry temperature of a supplier
    • Supplier exit temperature – Exit temperature of a supplier
    • Supplier pressure loss – Pressure loss of a supplier
    • Supplier entry pressure – Entry pressure of a supplier
    • Supplier exit pressure – Exit pressure of a supplier
    • Pump name – Name of a pump
    • Pump number of revolutions – Number of revolutions of a pump
    • Pump delivery height – Delivery height of a pump
    • Pump performance – Electrical performance of a pump
    • Pump mass flow – Mass flow of a pump
    • Pump entry flow rate – Entry flow rate of a pump
    • Pump exit flow rate – Exit flow rate of a pump
    • Pump entry temperature – Entry temperature of a pump
    • Pump exit temperature – Exit temperature of a pump
    • Pump entry pressure – Entry pressure of a pump
    • Pump exit pressure – Exit pressure of a pump
    • Valve name – Name of a valve
    • Valve position – Position of a valve
    • Valve pressure loss – Pressure loss of a valve
    • Valve mass flow – Mass flow of a valve
    • Valve entry flow rate – Entry flow rate of a valve
    • Valve exit flow rate – Exit flow rate of a valve
    • Valve entry temperature – Entry temperature of a valve
    • Valve exit temperature – Exit temperature of a valve
    • Valve exit pressure – Entry pressure of a valve
    • Valve entry pressure – Exit pressure of a valve
      • The Argument is the name of a unit-bound evaluation function, Example: h_label("h_pumpe_druckein")
    • Label – Determine a unit label for a unit-bound evaluation function.
