Training

 

The IDA ICE technical support and training are two very important elements of our service offer, and we offer regulary courses and seminares, both web based and in our offices.

Check out the event calendar or contact us!


 

Our courses are normally held in our offices, and after completing a course you will receive a course certificate. Upon request we can also arrange tailor made courses, and even in your office, if preferred.

 

Our free breakfast seminars and webinars are also an important and popular way to learn more about IDA ICE and our services, and also to meet other IDA ICE users and to share knowledge. 

 

In our standard range of courses we introduce you to the fundamental functionalities of IDA ICE and the process of creating a simulation model. The lectures are interspersed with computer exercises and cover:

 

  • Building geometry
  • Defining standard constructions
  • Windows and shadows
  • Mechanical ventilation and infiltration
  • Thermal bridges
  • Reports
  • Different kinds of simulations (cooling, heating and energy)
  • How to best create a simulation model
  • System losses, including pipes and ducts
  • Detailed review of reports
  • Different air handling units (AHU)
  • Demand controlled ventilation
  • Openable windows and doors (also temperature controlled)
  • New window model according to ISO 15099V
  • Version handling system
  • BIM import
  • 3D visualization
  • NMF source code
  • Logging of variables
  • Placing actuators and sensors
  • Time controlled setpoints

Using the state-of-art building performance simulation tool IDA ICE we can test your building before it is even built. Things such as system selection, equipment sizing, control strategies and set-points can be easily optimized. Our staff all have extensive project experience in passive design, HVAC systems and controls on a diverse range of construction projects. They are fully capable of modelling innovative bespoke new energy efficient systems.

 

IDA Indoor Climate and Energy

 

We are confident that the combination of in-depth modeling skills, insight gained from performance monitoring and the flexibility of IDA ICE will bring the very best to your project.

 

Our clients include project developers, HVAC-designers, construction companies and facility managers.

Performance monitoring

 

Some things are hard to explain. If we tell you that we can save between 15-40% of the energy in a seemingly fine new office building, would you believe it? 

 


Well, it is true and we have plenty of proof to support this!

Performance monitoring

 

The key is to attain a deep understanding of how the building really works using the signals from existing sensors. Most buildings have the needed sensors already installed as part of the automation system. It is just that few ever really tries to understand what is happening in the building. When you do, you find systems that run all year when they are only needed a small fraction of the time, systems that work against each other, setpoints that are design defaults, but obviously inappropriate to the current situation, etc.

 

Performance monitoring

 

We have some special tools that make it easy for an expert to gain overview and focus on critical details in a short amount of time. However, these tools are useless if you do not understand how a building should work. This is where our expert knowledge comes in.

Customization

 

The flexible and dynamic structure of IDA ICE allows for efficient development of new software components, user interfaces and even entire tailor-made simulation applications. The software can therefore easily be customised in accordance with your personal needs.

 


Below is a list of some customization works made for our customers.
