Hi Annie,

Tas can certainly model DOAS systems and chilled beams. I would be glad to provide you with a demonstration and go over any questions you had regarding the software to help you get to grips with it.

We have good documentation for our Tas Systems application in the installer of Tas and very good support. Tas Systems, our HVAC and controls simulation software, is similar to the way E+ does its HVAC simulation, but we can handle more complex waterside and airside configurations. In Tas Systems you can either build out your schematics using drag and drop components (or drag and drop pre-built systems you have saved in a library) or use a system wizard to generate a good starting point for say your VRF system with natural ventilation and then modify as necessary. Tas is ASHRAE 140-1 compliant and uses its own fast proprietary simulation engine.

Please let me know if you would like a Tas demonstration/trial, and we can arrange one in the coming weeks.

Tas can also account for the thermal lag through a radiant slab.
