1. Introduction
AQUAREA DESIGNER is a software program to design heat pump systems. After entering the data related to the
house or building, the hot water requirements, the energy rates and the heat source, the software assists you in selecting
a suitable heat pump.
In addition you can simulate the operation of heat pump systems. This means that important operating parameters are
calculated on the basis of a given system.
After changing typical data the calculated operational data will be immediately updated. This is a simple solution to coordinate the components of the heating system and to achieve an optimized mode of operation.
The program options are accessible at any time after the program start, even if no project is created or opened.
Likewise you can show reports previously created and saved.
Please note that some functionalities of the program AQUAREA DESIGNER are only available if additional modules
are installed. It is thus possible that functionalities described here will not be found in your copy of the program.
You will find information on the data files used and the program version under the menu item ? / About AQUAREA
DESIGNER.....
Please Note: Activate the help-file with the F1-button or the ?- button
Please Note: The appearance of the pictures of the AQUAREA DESIGNER may vary from your program output.
The representation of the program depends on the settings and the used Windows version.
2. Program Overview
The program calculates the necessary heat quantities and the current heating-water temperature based on climate data at
the location of the building and the heat consumption of the building. If shut-off times occur in the tariffs of the energy
companies, those will be taken into account by a correcting factor. The hot water production is taken into consideration
depending on tank type and required temperature.
The calculation is iterative (iteration starts at beginning of heating period) and depends on the technical data of the heat
pump. The running time and energy consumption are calculated from the temperatures of heating-water and heat source.
Running time and energy consumption are added up and used for the calculation of the annual COP and the report.
The program provides a lot of help for design and control mechanisms.
In menu item ? / Show manual the user manual file manualeng.pdf is displayed.
Buttons which are enabled (b
black font) can be chosen. Buttons which are disabled (g
grey font) indicate that there are
other inputs necessary before.
In the beginning there can only an existing project be chosen or a new one be opened (see fig. 1).
Quick Design starts the fast simulation with simplified input, Expert Design allows more extensive inputs.
If a project is opened the project related data can be shown or edited using the buttons in front of the white background
(see fig. 2).

3. Projects
AQUAREA DESIGNER works on the basis of projects. In principle a project corresponds to a customer. Before a
project can be calculated, you must enter the required data. In many cases you can use data from the AQUAREA
DESIGNER database (e.g. climate data of a location) or you can access helpful calculations (e.g. to calculate the
heating requirement by providing the oil volume consumed in the past).
After starting the program you can:
input your user data (e.g. company name, contact details). It will appear in every report generated.
set the program-options
see or change the master data of heat pumps or energy cost rates
create a new project
open an existing project
delete project components or whole projects
display a report previously created
save or restore your project data, a file with all user-defined data
If you press the button Quick Design, Expert Design or Open project, you will be asked to select a project or to
create a new one. You must give the new project a name (see Fig. 3).
Fig. 3: Project-name
AQUAREA DESIGNER checks that every name is unique. If it is not, the user gets an error message and can enter
another name. After that you can design the new system, setting all the missing data.
When all necessary components are assigned you can start the calculations.
If the project is complete, you can simulate the operation of the heating system, you can show the results and create
different reports.
Project is created or opened: After a project was created or opened the project main window (see fig. 2) appears
first. It shows all the components assigned to the project as well as buttons to guide you
to the associated data input window. These windows allow the editing of project data.
-8Heat pump and tariff data belong to the project-independent master data and are therefore not accessible via the Edit
menu but by the Master data menu.
Each data page contains the three buttons Help, Save and Close.
Via Help you can find the associated help file page.
Pressing Save means that all changes made on this data page are stored. If windows with calculation results from the
current project are simultaneously opened, the results are re-calculated and displayed. (The Save button is only
activated if at least one data element was changed.)
If the Close button is pressed, this terminates the dialogue for project data editing. If data pages with unsaved changes
exist, the user is asked to save them now.
If you select Cancel, the dialogue for data editing is not closed and the data page with unsaved data is activated.
The message box asking you to save the data appears for each input window with unsaved data (up to 6 times in the
worst case).

4. Design
There are two different modes for heat pump design. The fast Quick Design (see fig. 5a) and the expert mode (Expert
Design (see fig. 5 b)).

internal gains in warmer countries are less than in colder countries, because the time one need to heat the
building is shorter
solar gains are significantly higher in warmer countries, but in a shorter period of time because of the shorter
time one need to heat the building
The typical values for Germany are modified in the following way:
determination of the radiation which is horizontal to the building at heatings days to calculate the solar gains
and a correction factor
counting of the days of heating for intern gains and determination of a correction factor.
fixed to 15C
(This temperature limit applies for old buildings in Germany.)
Hot water tank and circulation losses
Please note: The standard heating requirement is related to the outdoor design temperature of the location.
According to this estimate, a building in Spain would appear less thermal insulated than one in Germany,
if the specific heat consumption/m is the same.
heat loss = area * value for thermal insulation * difference of temperature
difference of temperature: room temperature outdoor design temperature
outdoor design temperature (Germany) = -14 C
outdoor design temperature (Spain) = 1 C
value for thermal insulation = heat loss / (area * difference of temperature)
area and heat loss are the same for the same building
difference of temperature (Germany) = 34 C
difference of temperature (Spain) = 19 C
value for thermal insulation (Spain) < value for thermal insulation (Germany)
5. Program options
The Program options are a tool to suit often used settings (e.g. tariff, costs of fuels, currency) and default values to the
user.
In menu item Extras / Program options you reach the entry form for the Program options.
The changed option values are only applied if the Apply button (without closing the options window) or the OK
button (with closing the options window) is pressed.
The options are only saved to disk when you press the OK button. This is necessary, if you want to keep the changed
values for future program uses.
If you would prefer the changes to be valid only until the program is closed, then you must first press Apply and then
Cancel.
Pressing Cancel terminates the options dialogue without saving changes (that means any changes you have made
since you last pressed Apply).
You can reset some options to the state after installing the program. Therefore you must press reset to default values
on the related option page.
Please note: you can not undo this action.
Changings in the program options influence only new projects or projects in which the prices and life spans have never
been changed.
General options
Please note:
There is no price conversions! (All figures remain unchanged when the user changes the currency. That means a
price of 100 Euro in a project will then be shown as 100 Skr for example.)
Report warnings
source temperature out of heat pump data
If this option is selected, the user receives a warning if the computed source temperature is outside of the available
performance data of the heat pump.
required forward heating-water temperature higher than designed
If this option is selected, the user receives a warning if the computed inlet temperature is above the maximum inlet
temperature given with the building data.
annual running time of heat pump is greater than x h
If the program calculates a longer annual running time you will get a warning message. Entering zero will shut off this
test.
reset all warnings to default values
If you press this button, all warnings will be reseted to the state after installing the program.
If you miss climate data, please validate if you have chosen the right country in the options.
Report options
There are already report templates included in the program, which can be changed too (see fig. 10).
folder for report templates
Use this field to indicate the default folder for the report templates. Press the button to designate the folder containing
the report templates.
If no default template for reports is given, a file dialogue is shown while creating the report. The folder the dialogue is
starting with is chosen with this option.
folder for report files
Use this field to indicate the default folder for your reports to create in. With the button beside the report folder you can
look for and select it.
In this folder the program creates a new subfolder for each project (with the name of the project). In this subfolder all
reports for this project will be saved.
This is only true, if the option save report to a file is selected.
program to open report files
Select here the program you want to use to open and show your reports created. With the button aside you can browse
for the program in a file dialogue.
If you leave this field blank, please use the selection beneath to choose, if to use the installed internet browser or the
word processing program. Your selection is only valid, when the input field is empty.

Please note: Not every text processing programme is able to show html faultless.
Fig. 11: Input mask for running costs options necessary for comparison of running costs
1st Column: Price
Input here the costs of the energy per kWh as well as the cost of electricity for the heat circulation pumps used for gas
and oil heating systems. (The program assumes for these circulation pumps a fixed running time of 5280 hours per year
= 220 heating days with 24 hours.)
2nd Column: Efficiency
Input here the average annual efficiency of the energy source.
3rd Column: Maintenance
The typical maintenance costs for every heating system are entered here. If these values are not appropriate for a certain
project, you can change the values for the project (see Additional costs).
4th Column: Additional costs
Provide here project-independent all-inclusive values for additional costs per year. For project-specific and detailed
values use the dialogue comparison of running costs in an active project.

You can choose vertical or horizontal bars for the cost charts. Select the kind of bars by clicking on the picture with the
mouse.
Set all values to their defaults
Press this button to reset all values to the state after installing the program.
Warning: This operation can not be cancelled!
Fig. 12: Input mask for all options regarding costs of investment and used in the comparison of investment
costs
Use this dialogue (see fig. 12) to enter the investment costs and lifetimes of the heating components, used for the
investment costs comparison.
At the investment costs options page you can enter typical costs for the heating components and their lifetime. These
values are automatically used at each cost comparison. If the presettings in the options do not fit for a special
project/customer, you can change these values in the input window described here.
(You can also enter the name for an arbitrary energy source in the running costs options. And in this dialogue the
associated investment cost and lifetime.)
Components
You can enter the costs and lifetimes to all heating components listed here.
Investment costs
The costs, resulting from buying this component.
Some heating devices do not have a separate hot water tank. In such a case, please divide the total costs among
aggregate and hot water tank. Otherwise you will get a warning, that investment costs are missing.
Lifetime
The lifetime of a component is the period, after that the component have to be changed against a new one; therefore a
new investment is needed.
Please note: The values for the heat delivery are taken for the heating system which is stated in the caption of the
group (conventional or heat pump heating system; electrical heatings are assumed to have no heat
delivery).
The costs provided for buffers must enclose all buffers used in the heating system. May be a buffer for hot
water production and a second to buffer heating-water.
The costs for electrical heatings must enclose the complete heating system, because they are not divided
into components.

6. Building data
6.1 Location
The heating limit temperature or outdoor temp. limit for heating on indicates until which maximal outdoor
temperature the heating system is used. Typical values are 15 to 18 C.
Maximum heating-water temperature is the maximal forward heating- or maximal return temperature, which is used
for the heating system (not to mix up with the maximal possible forward heating temperature of the heat pump).
Minimum return temperature
Depending on the hydraulic system and the heat delivery system the minimum return temperature drops with the
outdoor temperature. The minimum return temperature can have a minimum value, which comes e.g. from the use of a
combined tank for heating system and hot water heating. If the combined tank should have at least 35C due to hot water
heating, the minimum return temperature wont be less than this value.
Location of building
Use this dialogue to select the climatic location of the building. You can choose from all climatic locations contained in
the program's or user's database.
If you press the OK button the selected location is saved as climatic location with the building's data. The associated
climate data is used for all calculations.
Country
You can use this selection list to filter the displayed locations by country.
The associated country of a location is found in the location's name (you have to consider this, when creating new
climatic locations on your own). The country's signature stands in parenthesis and is equal to the international country
abbreviation on cars.
Here are some examples:
(D)Germany
(A)Austria
(CH)Switzerland
(IRL)Ireland
(IT)Italy
(EST)Estonia
(LV)Latvia
(LT)Lithuania
(FIN)Finland
(N)Norway
If none of these country characters are found in the name, the location is only shown if you select show all locations
or locations without country code.

Type 1: The WH-tanks are tanks with good layering and the water is
heated from inlet temperature to target temperature in one go
(see fig. 20). The cold water is heated slowly. If the heating is
taking place in a tank with good layering the water heats up
according to FAWA-study from a average temperature of 35
C to the target temperature. For low hot water temperatures
the heat pump achieve better coefficients of performance.

If none of these country characters are found in the name, the location is only shown if you select show all locations or
locations without country code.
Zip code
You can use this list to filter the displayed locations in addition to the country selection by their zip-code. (A change in
the country selection resets the zip-code selection to all.)
The zip-code is extracted from the name of the location (you have to consider this, when creating new climatic locations
on your own). The extraction works this way: The first digit in the location's name is interpreted as the beginning of the
zip-code..

Instead you can select a heat pump from the drop down list on the right hand side, and the program will calculate the
temperature limits for monovalent and parallel mode of operation.
Left hand side
The starting point for the calculation is the quantity of heat the heat pump should provide. Enter this quantity as an
absolute value in kWh or as percentage of the total heat amount.
As soon as an input value is changed, the button Recalculate is activated. This is also a sign that the value calculated
before is now invalid. Only if a calculation is done, the button Assume bivalent temperature is released. If you click
this button the result value is automatically entered in the associated input field on the design input mask.
Right hand side
Select the heat pump you want to use in the current project. Check the calculated bivalent temperature and press Accept
heat pump to take over this heat pump and the bivalent temperature value into the input fields of the dimensioning
page.
Via button Cancel you can leave this dialogue box at any time without accepting the calculated temperature.
Additionally one can set the degree of supply of the given heat consumption in % of total the heat pump should have.
For this one have to take into consideration, that there are only heat pumps shown in the list which at least meet those
requirement, that means the degree of supply can be significantly higher.
Sustainability
These additional evaluations are also possible:
Regenerative factor
Identical with the annual coefficient of performance but with yields of thermal solar facility included (if existing in
project), which lower the heat consumption.
Create evaluation report
Press this button to create an annual evaluation report. Further informations on creating reports.
14. Efficiency
14.1 Compare running costs
In the dialogue Economic comparison one can find a comparison of operational and investment costs.
In the input window for operation costs options typical prices for fuels and additional costs can be given. These are
automatically used with each cost comparison. If these default values are not applicable (e.g. use of liquid gas, local
price structures), you can simply overwrite these values in the associated input fields. After pressing the Re-calculate
button all cost totals are recalculated.
Also, you can put in the name and the energy price for an arbitrary additional energy source in the operation costs
options, whose values are shown in the running costs comparison and can also be compared.
1. Column
Price for the associated energy source per kWh, and the electricity rate for the heat circulation pump(s) of oil or gas
heating systems.
2. Column
Efficiency of the associated energy source.
3. Column
Annual additional costs of the associated energy source. Press this button to display and enter detailed additional
costs.
4. Column
Annual total costs of the associated energy source.
The horizontal coloured bars behind the total costs give a fast overview for all compared heating systems. The
heating system with the highest energy costs fills its bar complete (equals 100%). The lengths of the other bars are
equal to their ratio (in percent) to the most expensive system.
Heating systems which you have deselected on the heating system selection page have missing bars and greyed
values.
Re-calculate
The annual total costs are re-calculated if this button is pressed. (It is only active if data were changed.)
Please note: the name of the additional energy source will be cut after eight letters in the dialogue.
For special cases (e.g. use of liquid gas, costs are regional different) it is possible, to use other values for the comparison
of costs. Insert your values into the according input fields and press the button Re-calculate. The total coast are recalculated now. Your default values will be saved for future calculations.
If you press the Additional costs button, you can enter project-specific detailed additional costs (see fig. 36).

Via this button you can open a dialogue, which let you enter the investment costs and the lifetime for all the components
of a heating system (heat pump heating system as well as conventional one).
Your input is stored associated with the current project.
yearly increase of energy prices in %
To have fairly calculated investment costs also when using long reference periods, you can enter here the expected
yearly increase of energy prices (value is used for all energies involved in comparison).
FFig.
Fig. 39: Heating system selection
To minimize the input effort one must only insert the for the current project relevant energy sources into the comparison
of costs.
Use the dialogue Heating system (see fig. 39) to choose the heating systems for the cost comparisons (running costs
and investment costs). Set a check mark behind each heating system you want to include.
Lifetime
The lifetime of a component is the period, after that the component have to be changed against a new one; therefore a
new investment is needed.
Please note: If the button Save is pressed the input values in the current project will be saved and the input mask
will be closed. The input values will be used for this project until they are changed again. They will remain
unchanged even if the values in Extras / Program options / Costs of investment are changed,
because those are only valid for projects without own values.
New: The costs for heat pump and tank are taken from a supplied file, but can be changed in Comparison
of costs / price and lifetime of components.
If the button Cancel is pressed, the input mask will be closed too. The changing of the values will be lost.
15. Report
Input values, library values and results of the calculation can be visualized and printed in the report. With the button
Create report at the left-hand side this function can be started.
Templates for the report printout are included in the program. Those templates can be changed by the user.
AQUAREA DESIGNER creates the report of the input and result data in HTML-format.
The application specified in the report options is used for this task.
The report templates include the report text and place-holders for input and result data (see appendix).
Choosing your own report you will be asked for the report template. Using the report template in an other language
version can simplify the communication with colleagues from an other country.
17. Sustainability

Check which modules are installed at you computer with ? / About AQUAREA DESIGNER... / Further
information
When feeding into the hot water tank this is the hot water tank target temperature (see hot water data) plus the
exchange losses. When feeding into the space heating system this is the designed flow temperature (see building
data) plus the exchange losses.
You can enter only positive values for temperature and yield.
All the values in the tables can only be changed if you click the Change button beforehand.
solar exchange losses
The temperature losses at the heat exchanger.
solar collector
Select from the drop down list a solar collector from the database that is nearest to the one you are using for the
customer.
The gains from the thermal solar system can be used for hot water production and support of the heating system.
For the feed-back control it is assumed that first the hot water is heated and afterwards the heating system is supported.
The calculation is started after pressing Calculate solar input. For the calculation the entered collector data is used.
In Enter / change solar input / Change the user can change the collector data (e.g. if an accurate simulation had
been done for those values).
In Solar data the for the report necessary values are entered. The area of collector [m2] is the basis for the
calculation of the solar collector yield. This calculation can be performed in two different ways:
Trough simulation with a existing solar simulation program and entering the output data in Enter / change
solar input / Change
using the approximately calculation in the AQUAREA DESIGNER-library
(choice of a solar collector Enter / change solar input / Change)
The volume of the solar buffer is used to check if the solar yields can be used during the sun shine duration.
The temperature difference of the solar buffer is a measure for the storable heat quantity and the according solar yields
for this temperature.
For the calculation of the solar collector yields the entered heating and hot water temperatures are used. New collectors
can not be edited by the user.
The name of the solar collector consists of several elements. These are: the location (and related solar radiation data), the
collector type and the collector orientation and inclination.
The name 'Dublin/A/+10/45' stands for a solar system in the environment of Dublin with an Average solar collector, a
deviation from the south direction of +10 (= 10 to the west) and an inclination of 45 against the horizontal direction.
The collector can not use the complete solar irradiation, due to reflection at the glass or thermal losses. To take this into
account efficiency factors are used.
It is common to use efficiency factors with the parameters c0, c1 and c2.
c0 is the efficiency factor of a collector, if the average temperature of the collector and the outdoor temperature are
the same and should be as high as possible.
c1 and c2 are combinations of different efficiency loss factors and should be low.

21.2 Cooling
In the design heat pumps can be chosen which can be used for cooling too.
If this additional module is installed, the program an approximately method is used to calculate the cooling power and
from the technical data of the heat pump the power consumption of the cooling system.
The calculation of the cooling power is very complex, since one have to regard the thermal capacity of all components,
the translucence of the windows, intern yields including temporal correlation to the position of the sun and so on.
Therefore particular calculations require a lot of queries.
As well in Expert Design as in Quick Design simplifications are necessary.
Based on VDI directive 2078 (calculation of cooling power of air-conditioned rooms, July 2006) and HEA-method
which is based on the former one, the following main influencing factors are considered:
Because the windows have big influence, orientation as well as size are queried. Double glazing is assumed.
For windows in different directions according to VDI 2078 applies:
In the addition of the cooling power calculation the compass point which results in the maximum value has to be
inserted. For different constructions of windows in one direction there values have to be added up. If two windows show
to neighbouring compass points, e.g. SW and W, the sum of both values has to be inserted.
There is only one input possible for windows in one room, because the sun can not shine on windows in opposite
directions at the same time.
In Quick Design typical values are deposed without opening a query
roofs
Also in southern countries roofs are not negligible. For this there is an input field for the area of roofs to outside air.
Further influencing factors:
components:
- exterior walls with a hypothesized size of 20 m/room
- intern yields due to technique, lamps and living beings
