Suggestion: HVAC and equipment system model overview in LB and IB

Hi @MingboPeng @chris @mostapha

I hope you are pretty well.

I was wondering how fascinating it could be to have the feature of representing the HVAC system as the OpenStudio Application shows in demand and supply mode, in the LadyBug and Ironbug tools.

Something like interactive model that when you connect or disconnect, add or remove something in the grasshopper canvas, it could be able to see dynamically in a window in the GH canvas or in the Rhino.

Thank you very much for your great team, support, and assistance.

Sincerely,
Behnam

Hi @behnammmohseni thanks for your suggestion, that’s on the top of my Todo list for the next round of Ironbug development. We are considering using some web technology to visualize the interactive interface for HVAC systems. Once I have something to demo, I will keep you updated.

Thanks again,
Mingbo

Hi all, I was in cave-mode for the last two weeks in our “hackathon” project, and I was able to figure out an end-to-end workflow to display an interactive interface for visualizing the loops. Here is the proof of concept.
