KTS design module
The KTS design module enables you to dimension the KTS thermal system, a centralised DHW heating system based on the flow-through principle. It only takes three steps to achieve the result, including documentation of the results.
Determining requirements
In the first step, demand determination, you define the specific demand for your planning using demand profiles or by specifying manual tapping processes.
Demand profile by reference object
With a demand profile by reference object, you can add a demand profile to your planning based on a predefined building type, a predefined value range for the reference value and a predefined value range for the specific demand. The key figures provided are based on actual measurements in the respective reference objects.

- Determining requirements
  In the first step, demand determination, you define the specific demand for your planning using demand profiles or by specifying manual tapping processes.
  - Demand profile by reference object
    With a demand profile by reference object, you can add a demand profile to your planning based on a predefined building type, a predefined value range for the reference value and a predefined value range for the specific demand. The key figures provided are based on actual measurements in the respective reference objects.
  - Special profile
    With a special profile, you can create a demand profile based on a predefined building type, a predefined value range for the reference value and a predefined value range for the specific demand. The key figures provided are based on actual measurements in the respective reference objects.
  - Demand profile according to DIN 4708
    You can use a demand profile in accordance with DIN 4708 to create a demand profile based on a demand index and the specification of the peak demand.
  - Dispensing processes
    With manually created dispensing processes, you create a circulation profile on the basis of created dispensing processes.
  - Circulation volume flow
    You create a circulation profile using a manually created circulation volume flow.
- Interim result
  In the second step, ‘Interim result’, a combination of results is determined on the basis of the requirements profiles and the calculation parameters.
- Result
  The third and final step, Results, provides you with comprehensive results documentation.

Demand profile by reference object

With a demand profile by reference object, you can add a demand profile to your planning based on a predefined building type, a predefined value range for the reference value and a predefined value range for the specific demand. The key figures provided are based on actual measurements in the respective reference objects.

A change to the reference value (B) or the specific demand automatically leads to a change in the tapping profile, which is displayed in the lower dialogue area.

Select the desired building type from the Building type drop-down menu.

Note:
A separate standard profile is loaded for each building type.

Note:
The formula for calculating the demand in the standard demand profile is displayed to the right of the Building typedrop-down menu.
Adjust the reference value using the slider or by entering it in the Reference value (B) input field.

Note:
Each requirements profile has an individual value range within which the reference value may vary. The diagram below is updated immediately after the reference value has been adjusted.
Adjust the specific demand using the slider or by entering it in the specific demand (PWH) input field.

Note:
Each demand profile has an individual value range within which the specific demand may vary. The diagram below is updated immediately after the specific demand has been adjusted.
Customise the explanation of the demand profile by entering it in the lower input field to the right of the sliders.
The diagram in the dialogue area below shows the relationship between the PWH power requirement in kW and the time.
Exit the dialogue Demand profile by reference object with Ok.

Note:
A circulation volume flow is automatically created, which can be adjusted afterwards.

The demand profile by reference object is created in the Demand profiles window.
