Vent.X Analysis: higher quality, faster, automated ventilation design

What if ventilation design mathematics were automated? What if the calculations included changes in the devices or surroundings? Look no further, Vent.X has it all!

Automated calculations save time in ventilation design

A new Analysis feature automates the calculation of ventilation functions and is now available on Vent.X. This offers great time savings for ventilation designers.

Vent.X uses a simple scale from A+ to D, A+ being the best, to grade the performance values of the devices. These grades are evolved into a total grade of an individual air external unit providing an intuitive way to assess the suitability of the device.

Changes are incorporated

Changes in the space, the quantity of air terminal units, and adjustment rate are all taken into consideration in the gradual analysis and in the final grade. By changing the selected values in throw-pattern or sound environment simulation phases, one can affect the total grade and find the most suitable device with a trustworthy trial and error approach.

Since changes are incorporated in the analysis, also longitudinal research into suitability of the device can be conducted. At best, changes in the lifetime of the air terminal units can be prepared for by finding a device with optimal performance at a suitable adjustment range.

Spirit of Helsinki wins silver in Ocean Globe race

The Finnish boat Spirit of Helsinki crossed the finish line of the Ocean Globe Race last week and achieved a historic second place in the competition. The boat and crew arrived as the third boat at the finish line and were initially tied for winning in both the class and overall races. Boat Maiden Factor took the win after handicaps with a difference of 17 hours. Spirit of Helsinki won its own class (Sayula) brightly. The Finns spent 179 days, 18 hours, 32 minutes, and 45 seconds on the competition. The end of the sailing race also means that Tommi Uksila is back at the helm of Climecon.

Vent. X tips – adding obstacles

Obstacles in the path of the air flow affect the throw patterns of the air terminal devices. By modeling the obstacles in the space, their effect on the throw pattern of the selected air terminal device and the air movement can be studied. This information helps to choose the right air terminal devices for the space and to place them optimally so for example, the airflow turning down from the barrier does not cause draft problems.
