Welcome
OpenUtilities sisHYD is a comprehensive analytical modeling and network design application that delivers the thermal and hydraulic calculations necessary for district energy pipeline networks (heating and cooling). OpenUtilities sisHYD can quickly perform complex analyses on district energy networks to identify the asset usage costs, present operational status, location of critical points, failure simulation scenarios, and the calculation of all the major thermal and hydraulic parameters of the network.
On use of the documentation
The following section explains symbols and conventions in the documentation.
Paragraph symbols:
The hand symbol marks paragraphs
which give further information on the topic. Mostly backgrounds are explained
and possibilities for program administration described.
The warning symbol marks
paragraphs which require full attention. Potential dangers or pitfalls are
referred to here.
Links
Links to other documents, passages in the text or files and program folders are in blue.
The video symbol appears to the
left of the text whenever there is an example in video format.
Characteristics of the sisHYD modules
The sisHYD dialog system differs partially between the individual modules. Dialog elements or properties which are particularly identified for a module or a module combination are marked as follows:
– Characteristic in the
long-distance heating / cooling module
– Characteristic in the water
module
– Characteristic in the gas
module
