Audytor CC

The latest version of Auditor SET introduced new features and a number of improvements to speed up the installation design process.

The main changes are:

• New concept of work with SET program.
• New Fast Calculation (FC) module, which allows you to perform fast, approximate calculations of the thermal load of rooms and preliminary calculations of installations.
• Improvements in the design process of surface installations.
• Changed layout of the bill of materials.
• Changed module for viewing catalog data and selecting devices from catalogs.
• Improvements related to drawing wires.
• Improvements in graphics.

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.

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).

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.

The Audytor CC program allows you to perform full hydraulic calculations of the installation, including:

• calculation of the nominal water flows in the pipes
• selects pipes’ diameters
• determines the hydraulic resistance of individual system components
• determines the required available pressure
• regulates the water flows in the network by selecting the appropriate regulatory elements (valves with pre-settings, orifices)

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

A drawing with marked room zones is necessary to create a project. They can be drawn manually in the program or loaded together with bases from the HL program. If a three-dimensional model of a building has been created in the HL program, the drawings with the results will be loaded into the program. The building entered in tabular form will be loaded as a list of rooms with the results.

The most comfortable mode of operation allows you to take full advantage of the possibilities of cooperation with the HL program:

1. Uploading building bases to the HL program from files such as DWG, DXF, WMF, JPG.
2. Drawing a building model in the HL program and making thermal calculations.
3. Loading the results from the HL program in the system design program (heat load values and floor plans)
4. Drawing the installation and making calculations.

Designing an installation can be carried out only on a diagram, only on plan views, or partially on plan views and partially on a diagrams. It is also possible to combine fragments of installations drawn on plan views with elements drawn on diagrams.

In the case of drawing onplan views, the program automatically creates a simple diagram of risers, "fastening" individual projections. The program Audytor SET has been equipped with a three-dimensional visualization module of the installation, analogous to the building visualization module, available in the Audytor HL program.

• 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.  

• Each inputted component is equipped with the validation and support system that allows to obtain information about the values or evokes the relevant catalogue, as well as test of data.

• While entering data the program checks its correctness on an ongoing basis. This allows a significant reduction in the number of errors. During the calculation process, complete data validation takes place. As the result of that the list of errors, warnings and hints is created. The list includes the information about the significance levels and the place of the problems.

• After the calculations, program analyses the obtained results. The analogue list of messages is created. Extensive system diagnostics enables the designer to fully assess the quality of the design. The program is equipped with a mechanism for quick search of where the error occurred (automatic finding a table, a row and a column with wrong data and faulty component is indicated in the drawing).

Skaičiavimų rezultatų vaizdavimo aukštų planuose galimybė leidžia sukurti pilną grafinę sistemos dokumentaciją. Dažnai po projektu reikia įkelti projekto paveikslėlį. Paveikslėlius galima įkelti importuojant paveiksliuko failą, skenuojant paveiksliuką arba įklijuojant iš kopijavimo atminties. Įkeltą paveikslėlį dažnai reikia suderinti su esamu projektu (palyginti, apkirpti, pakoreguoti ir pan.).

Techniniai brėžiniai (pvz. sluoksniai) šiais laikais beveik visuomet kuriami kompiuterių pagalba. Tuomet juos galima išsaugoti atitinkamo formato failuose. Vektoriniai failų formatai (pvz. DWG, DXF, WMF, EMF) yra dažniausiai brėžiniams naudojami ir tinkamiausi formatai. Paveikslėlių failus taip pat galima sukurti naudojantis skeneriu, tuomet dažniausiai sukuriamas rastrinio formato failas (BMP, JPG, JPEG, TIF, TIFF, GIF, ICO, PNG).

Įprastai įkeliant paveikslėlį būtina paveikslėlio įkėlimo dialogo lange įvesti atitinkamą informaciją. Įkeltą paveikslėlį dažnai reikia suderinti su esamu projektu (palyginti, apkirpti, pakoreguoti ir pan.). Galima pasirinkti skenuoto paveikslėlio raišką ir kokybę, bei išsaugoti skenuotus dokumentus pasirinktu grafiniu formatu. Programa suderinta su TWAIN skenerių specifikacijas atitinkančiais skeneriais.

HL programs and CH are equipped with the function of Graphic creation of a building model. This function gives you the opportunity to draw a building model. To simplify the action of drawing, you can load a drawing base into the program. The file being loaded can come from an external program for creating technical drawings (eg DWG), or from a scanned drawing (eg JPG). The scanned drawing can be divided into several files. Drawings scanned into several files usually do not keep the scale precisely enough. They can also be rotated relative to each other by a small number of degrees.

Drawing bonding allows you to quickly scale multiple scanned drawings (in different sizes and rotated) and bond them with one another.

Didelė dalis parametrų, įvestų pastato nustatymo pradžioje, yra visam pastatui būdingi duomenys (t. y. numatytieji duomenys). Šiuos duomenis naudoja duomenų paveldėjimo sistema.

Vartotojas kiekvienos klasės įtaisui gali nustatyti numatytąjį katalogo simbolį. Simbolis automatiškai priskiriamas (paveldimas) kiekvienam įrenginiui esančiame projekte. Numatytasis katalogo simbolis gali būti bet kada pakeistas, net kai įrenginiai į brėžinį jau įtraukti. Jei simbolis pakeičiamas bendruosiuose duomenyse, simboliai pasikeičia visuose to tipo įrenginiuose, išskyrus atvejus, kai konkretus simbolis elementui įvestas atskirai. Daug kitų parametrų taip pat gali būti analogiškai paveldėta.

Duomenys redaguojami lentelėje, todėl vienu metu galima nustatyti kelių elementų parametrus. Jungtis tarp brėžinio ir lentelės brėžinyje paryškinama, matomas lentelėje redaguojamas elementas.

Duomenų paveldėjimo sistema:

• padeda sutaupyti daug laiko įvedant duomenis (pašalinama būtinybė kelis kartus įvesti pasikartojančius duomenis);

• gali labai greitai pakeisti pasikartojančius duomenis, jei pasikeičia projekto sąlygos arba rengiami keli projekto variantai.

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.

• Pelės žymeklis tampa atitinkama naudojamos funkcijos piktograma.

• Rodomos pagalbinės linijos, padedančios automatiškai sujungti konkrečius charakteringus taškus (pvz., radiatoriaus jungčių taškus).

• Vamzdžiai braižomi poromis (tiekimo / grįžtamieji), parenkant tarp jų tarpus, kurie, jei reikia, automatiškai pakoreguojami pagal prijungtus įrenginius (pvz., pagal radiatorių prijungimo taškų tarpus).

• Jei vamzdžiai braižomi kaip daugiakampė grandinė, reikia mažiau kartų spustelėti pelę.

• Automatinis radiatorių įterpimas po langais.

• Automatinis radiatorių sujungimas naudojant apatinius jungimo prie vamzdžių taškus.

• Galimybė dubliuoti bet kurias brėžinio dalis tame pačiame arba kitame aukšte.

• Galimybė sukurti veidrodinį elementų vaizdą.

• Galimybė naudoti iš anksto paruoštus blokus. Dėl kartu su programine įranga pristatomų standartinių dalių, pvz., statvamzdžių aukštų, buto ir vamzdyno sistemos elementų, brėžinių dalių (blokų) bibliotekos, galima greitai sukurti schemą.

• Galimybė nustatyti iš esmės neribotą skaičių pritaikytų blokų, kuriuos sudarytų bet kuri brėžinio dalis. Iš anksto parinkti blokai vėliau gali būti panaudoti vėlesniuose projektuose.

Kiekvienas įvestas komponentas turi patikros ir pagalbos sistemą, leidžiančią gauti informacijos apie vertes arba panaikinančią susijusį katalogą bei testuojančią duomenis.

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.

Each inputted component is equipped with the validation and support system that allows to obtain information about the values or evokes the relevant catalogue, as well as test of data.

While entering data the program checks its correctness on an ongoing basis. This allows a significant reduction in the number of errors. During the calculation process, complete data validation takes place. As the result of that the list of errors, warnings and hints is created. The list includes the information about the significance levels and the place of the problems.

After the calculations, program analyses the obtained results. The analogue list of messages is created. Extensive system diagnostics enables the designer to fully assess the quality of the design. The program is equipped with a mechanism for quick search of where the error occurred (automatic finding a table, a row and a column with wrong data and faulty component is indicated in the drawing).

Skaičiavimo rezultatas pateikiamas tiek grafiškai, tiek lentelėje (7 pav.). Kiekvieno sistemos komponento formatavimo etiketės gali būti laisvai keičiamos (rodomų verčių ir etikečių stiliaus išvaizda).

Lentelių formatas (pasirinktų skilčių ir eilučių išvaizda, šrifto dydis) gali būti keičiamas ir rūšiuojamas pagal bet kokį raktą.
Lentelėse pateikiami bendri rezultatai ir išsamūs kiekvieno įrenginio, grandinės bei medžiagų ir tvirtinimo elementų sąrašo rezultatai.
Kai brėžinys pateikiamas su rezultatais, taip pat matomos ir etiketės su konkrečiais nurodyti įrenginio duomenimis. Visa etikečių forma gali būti redaguojama. Visi konkretaus elemento rezultatai gali būti pateikiami etiketėje. Galima išsaugoti daug etikečių formatų, kurie vėliau gali būti nedelsiant pakeisti.

Skaičiavimo rezultatai gali būti atspausdinti naudojant braižytuvą arba spausdintuvą. Vartotojas gali pasirinkti brėžinio mastelį ir, naudodamas spaudinio peržiūros funkciją, nustatyti, kaip brėžinys turi būti atspausdintas.

Jei brėžinys netelpa į vieno popieriaus lapą, programa atspausdina jį fragmentais, kurie vėliau gali būti suklijuoti. Todėl, naudojant netgi paprasčiausią A4 spausdintuvą, gali parengti didelius brėžinius. Programa taip pat gali išsaugoti brėžinius DXF arba DWG failuose. Tuomet išsaugoti brėžiniai gali būti įkelti į kitą programinę įrangą, pvz., „AutoCAD“.

Lentelės su skaičiavimų rezultatais gali būti atspausdintos arba išeksportuotos į kitas programas, veikiančias „Windows“ aplinkoje (pvz., skaičiuoklę, teksto redaktorių ir t. t.).

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.
