Enthalpy Scheme for MicroNet Controllers

Product_Support · ‎2018-09-09

Issue

MicroNet controllers using VisiSat do not provide a direct enthalpy value. The existing enthalpy object in Bubbleland only outputs a digital state based on comparison logic, which is insufficient for applications requiring actual enthalpy values.

Product Line

Satchwell MicroNet

Environment

Satchwell MicroNet
VisiSat

Cause

The Bubbleland stencil includes an enthalpy object that provides a digital output (on/off) based on temperature and humidity comparisons. However, it lacks a standard object to calculate and output a true enthalpy value.

Resolution

Option 1: Create a Simple Bubbleland Scheme

Use temperature and humidity as dynamic inputs.
Use fixed values for other parameters (e.g., pressure = 1 bar).
This provides an approximate enthalpy value.
A downloadable custom object is available to simplify this process.

Installation Instructions:

Unzip the file to create a Satchwell folder.

Copy the folder to your C:\ drive.

Files will be placed in the correct VisiSat directories automatically.

✅ Option 2: Use Preconfigured Controller Schemes

Download configuration files for your specific controller model.
Load the scheme with enthalpy objects directly into the controller.

✅ Option 3: Use a Prebuilt VisiSat Project

Includes all controller types with enthalpy schemes.
Configuration files are saved under a Configs folder within the project.

Additional Notes

These schemes are intended to provide estimated enthalpy values for operational use.
For precise calculations, consider integrating external sensors or software.
