Overview of WUFI's Menu Structure

This list contains a description of all menu items.

Wipes WUFI's memory clean and starts a new, empty project.

Creates a new case within the current project.

Serves to delete cases which are not needed any more.

Displays the usual 'Open' dialog from which you can open existing project files (which contain the input data and the calculation results, if any).

Displays a list of projects you have previously worked with so that you can easily open them by simply selecting them from this list.

Saves the input data and (after a calculation has been performed) the calculation results to the project file.

Saves the current project under a new name.

Closes WUFI-1D.

(these dialogs are also directly accessible from the project explorer on the left side of the screen)

Assembly / Monitor Positions
Here you define the assembly of the building component by specifying the layer sequence and the layer thicknesses as well as the material parameters of the individual layers.
Orientation / Inclination / Height
This dialog serves to define the orientation, inclination and height of the building component.
Surface Transfer Coefficients
In this dialog you define the surface transfer coefficients, such as the heat transfer coefficient, the radiation absorptivity, rain reduction factor etc.
Initial Conditions
The initial temperature and moisture distributions are specified in this dialog (e.g. a dry component or one with trapped construction moisture).
Calculation Period / Profiles
Here you tell WUFI for which period of time the simulation shall be carried out (e.g. the simulation is to span one year, starting on June 1st).
Numerics
The options offered by this dialog allow you to control the way the calculation is done.
Climate: Outdoor (Left Side)
Climate: Indoor (Right Side)
These dialogs serve to specify the weather acting on the left or right side of the component, respectively.
