Calculation method

Calculation method

Daily indoor heat input (kWh/day)

Sum measured power×hours×indoor heat fraction/1000.

Average heat load (W)

Daily heat kWh×1000/24; excludes heat removed or exported.

Peak simultaneous input upper bound (W)

Sum power×heat fraction; schedules may not coincide.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Measured electrical loads, operating schedules. Returns Heat input scenario. All coefficients and observations are user supplied; results describe only the stated mathematical model. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification.
Are these inputs private?
