As system diversity can now be accurately assessed you may find that systems are selected with a
high level of diversity (the ability to attach more fan coil capacity than the total capacity available from
the condenser)
We strongly recommend that any notifications or warnings on your selection are discussed with
Daikin who can be contacted on [e-mail] who will be happy to provide confirmation
of limitations and help with selections.
Thermal Simulations Menu
A) Thermal Simulation Tab – Under this menu the settings for performing an accurate simulation
of the selected VRV systems can be performed
B) Timestep setting – This setting will alter the frequency of the simulation steps – 10 minute
timesteps are usually suitable for an accurate simulation however timesteps as low as 2
minutes can be selected but are likely to produce very large file sizes.
C) Weather file setting – It is possible to select a weather file to any of the available .fwt or .epw
file types for simulation
