Hive 1.10.2

HOTFIX No2 of today

When "Bestand" (existing construction) was selected as construction quality in the building form, the sia380 demand simulator wouldn't work because it had "NaN" in some properties (heat recovery). Fixed in 31e6fbe

Hive 1.10.1

HOTFIX
Hive 1.10.0 did not recognize any floor surfaces anymore! This is now fixed by c7dfcca

Hive 1.10.0

mostly minor bug fixes. Also updated Honey-Badger to be able to compile with Rhino 7.0, but we'll continue building for Rhino 6.0 for now

• enhancement: checking compatibility with Rhino 7.0. looks all good. updated Honey-Badger to be able to compile with Rhino 7.0, too, but for compatibility reasons, we'll stick to compiling for Rhino 6.0 #513
• bug: sia380 wasn't working without windows #581 #583
• bug: floor area not displayed correctly in the building form #579 #584
• feature: when no floor is found in the 3D geometry, the building form now displays a critical error #577
• documentation: some templates for hive.core solar tech components #585
• bug: divide by zero in solar-thermal component #560

Hive 1.9.0

Lot's of smaller and bigger changes! Most importantly, all WPF has been translated to Windows Forms for compatibility reasons.

Change log:

• bug: Hive.Core.epw_reader.json GHI type string, corrected to type float #549

• misc: we wrote an IBPSA paper on hive and analysed survey data #553
• enhancement: wpf to winforms for compatibility. Some students couldn't open the wpf forms and we just couldn't figure out, why #555 #500
• enhancement/feature: hourly resolution in demand calculation #455 #563 #571 #568 #571 #569
• enhancement/feature: sia 2024 schedules for hourly resolution #565 #572
• bug: corrected most gh template files #574

Change log:

• fixed bug that disconnected the Hive Building Component from everything when connecting it to a parametric input component: #509 #504
• added template file for the final EaCS3 exercise, E04_Hive_template.gh, which is basically the same as E03_Hive_ActiveSolar.gh, just with office open space set in the building component and a PV surface set in the Hive EnergySystems component

Hive 1.4.0

Sprint 1.4

most changes already released as hotfix 1.3.1. Additional changes:

Change log:

• fixed a bug that made surfaces disappear in the EnergySystems form: #507 #493

Hive 1.3.1

Hotfixes

• more than 8 windows can now be displayed in the Solar Gains plot of the GhVisualizer: #501 #499
• PVs are now saved in the EnergySystems component when saving the .gh file: #503 #491
• honeybadger sia2024 room list components now with updated data. fixed bug that caused data for some rooms to be wrong in Hive.IO: #502 #476
• updated hive icons: #498 #497
• updated parametric input components: #505 #495

Hive 1.3.0

Hive release introducing the active solar energy exercise and an .exe installer

...also some cosmetic changes and bug fixes.

To install, get the Setup_Hive.exe here in the Assets and simply double click on it.

Change log:

• introducing an .exe installer #485
• fixing PV and ST parameters in the Energy Systems form for now #489
• changing labels in demand plot #490
• adding active solar exercise #488
• fixing negative COP bug of chillers #486
• adding new icons #484 #479
• refining components descriptions #477

Hive 1.1.0

Major change in how cooling demand is calculated. Furthermore, input parameters in the Grasshopper Building and EnergySystems forms are now saved into the .gh file.

To install, extract the contents of Hive_v1.1.0.zip into your Grasshopper Components library folder. If you've previously installed an older version of Hive, simply replace the existing files with the new ones. Make sure to set each file to unblock (right click, properties).

Tutorial videos are on Moodle (currently only accessible to ETH students enrolled to the course "Energy and Climate Systems 3), in "E02 - Passive Solar": https://moodle-app2.let.ethz.ch/course/view.php?id=12932#section-6

Change Log:

• building energy demand calculations (sia380.py) now better represent cooling demand, in accordance to newest equations from @Linwal and @hillias (Interaktion Struktur, Klima und Wärmebedarf_HS20.xlsx and EK1_Formelsammlung_HS20.pdf). ( #470 )
• input parameters of the Grasshopper Building and EnergySystems forms are now saved in the .gh file ( #471 )
• renamed Solar irradiation per window label in the GhVisualizer component to Solar gains, because these values show irradiation into the zone (considering g-values), not onto the surface ( #468 )
