Result summary

Last modified by Claudia Bless on 2026/08/26 10:21

In the Expert edition, the Summary tab is shown automatically after a completed simulation. For the Standard edition, it is opened from the Simulation tab.

The tab shows key results from simulations that have been made. The radio buttons on the top left are used to toggle between different available simulation results. The appearance of the scalar result tables are different depending on the type of simulation. From IDA ICE 4.7, the full results from each special simulation are retained, not just the summary tab data. Full results are loaded into the session when the corresponding summary is shown. The Cooling summary is special, here full results are only loaded once a specific peak month is selected by opening the Peak cases link (top right).

Scalar results often represent maximum values of various sensor readings. By default, signals are filtered by a 15 minute sliding average (time can be changed in System parameters). This is because very sharp peak values, spikes, often convey insignificant information that depends on approximations made rather than on underlying physics. This also means that presented results may not always correspond with a manual reading from a diagram.
