Systems Preprocessor
Goal
Lets the user specify the probability distribution of HVAC systems for the simulated buildings. For example: 40% air-source heat-pumps and 60% pellet boilers. This information is needed for environmental analysis, with primary energy and CO2 emissions.

Dependencies
- Create SimStadt Model
- Geometric Preprocessor
- Import City Gml
- Physics Preprocessor
- Usage Preprocessor
Parameters
Use an assessment scenario? (useScenario)
Should an assessment scenario be used?
If the CityGML file is incomplete or out-dated, a custom scenario can be defined, for example in order to specify:
In PhysicsPreprocessor: which percentage of buildings have been refurbished, depending on their building types (30% of single-family houses before 1995 to KfW55).
In SystemsPreprocessor: which HVAC system (e.g. pellet boiler or air-source heat-pump) has been installed.
- Type :
boolean - Default :
false - Getter :
isUseScenario() - Setter :
setUseScenario(boolean)
Available libraries (libraries)
List of libraries which have been imported and are available.
Selection is done either via GUI or by setting selectedLibrary to the desired index.
- Type :
List - Default :
[eu.simstadt.library.EnergySystemAndFuels] - Getter :
getLibraries() - Setter :
setLibraries(List)
Selected Library (selectedLibrary)
Index (between 0 and n-1) for the desired library out of the list of available ones (libraries).
- Type :
int - Default :
0 - Getter :
getSelectedLibrary() - Setter :
setSelectedLibrary(int)
