This Navigator action opens the Apache Systems dialog. Any number of Apache Systems may be defined using the Add / Remove buttons at the top of the dialog.
An Apache System is named using the Name edit field. To assign the new name, re-select the system you are naming, and the new name is automatically applied.
The name of an Apache System should be of the following form:
<prefix>=<description>, where
· <prefix> is a short combination of letters or numbers which should also be added to the start of the description of the matching (paired) HVAC network. (See section 7.2, naming HVAC systems)
· = is an equals sign
· <description> is a description of the Heating/Cooling system
For each Apache System, the cooling/ventilation strategy must be configured in the “Cooling” tab. This setting determines whether a room is considered conditioned, mechanically ventilated, or naturally ventilated, and thus evaluated in the relevant credit analysis.
