Follow on Google News | CYPE 2024: Improving its solutions for designing and calculating with sustainability criteriaBy: VMRCOMUNICACION CYPE has optimised and increased the performance of its energy efficiency programs, improving the interconnection between them and minimising the loss of information. As a result, the technology offers specialists the necessary tools for carrying out real energy simulations, determining economic profitability, forecasting energy consumption and performance, and considering compliance with current codes in any construction project, whether it is a new building or a renovation project. Energy simulation, acoustics, lighting, life cycle analysis, air conditioning, bills of quantities, solar panels, charging points for electric vehicles, etc., these are only some of the CYPE programs that facilitate multidisciplinary work in various fields and allow effective coordination between the different specialists involved in the project. This makes it easier for professionals to perform energy audits of buildings, while estimating the energy demand and consumption of buildings under buildingSMART International standards. Promoting sustainability: As well as the above, CYPE's programs also allow users to design and analyse using systems and equipment for clean energy production such as solar thermal energy or solar PV energy, as well as others such as geothermal, aerothermal or biomass energy, etc. Regarding the design and analysis of photovoltaic systems, the specialist program CYPELEC PV Systems has incorporated new modelling elements in this version, such as hybrid inverters, modular batteries and distribution panels. This program, which is integrated in an Open BIM workflow, analyses the correct number of solar panels that need to be installed in a building to achieve savings of between 50 and 70% of electricity costs, which accelerates the payback of the self-consumption system. In this version, CYPE has also improved the interconnection between the different programs that carry information when working in an Open BIM workflow by perfecting the IFC files and incorporating new options when exporting to this format from the different programs. New ramps module CYPE version 2024 also comes with the new "Ramps" module for CYPECAD to analyse and design ramp slabs as isolated elements of the structure. Carlos Fernández explains that this new tool resolves each span's ramp cores in four different types: Straight flight, Curved flight, Horizontal span - Quarter turn, and Horizontal span - Half turn.
