Hybrid production Heating
Application
Hybrid production blocks are Base Circuits (BCs) that assist the “Compute Design Flow” calculation step. In “Compute design flow”, the design heat flow is propagated from end unit(s) to production unit(s). When having multiple production units, Hysopt cannot decide independently how the design heat flow coming from end units needs to be distributed among the different production units. For this purpose, hybrid production blocks are introduced. This principle is illustrated in the figure below:

In the Hysopt software, several hybrid production topologies are available:
