Kiva

Kiva is a free and open source ground heat transfer calculation tool written in C++. Specifically, Kiva is used to calculate heat loss and gain on a timestep basis from building foundations. The goal is to create a tool that can integrate the multi-dimensional heat transfer into standard building energy simulation engines.

Documentation

See the online documentation for information on using Kiva and creating Kiva input files.

Contributing

Kiva is configured as a cross-platform CMake project. To build Kiva, you'll need to clone the git repository and use CMake (pointing to the kiva root directory).

Pre-requisites:

  1. A C++ compiler (e.g., Clang, GCC, MSVC)
  2. CMake

Building Kiva from source

  1. Clone the git repository.
  2. Make a directory called build inside the top level of your source.
  3. Open a console in the build directory.
  4. Type cmake ...
  5. Type cmake --build . --config Release.
  6. The Kiva executable (kiva or kiva.exe) will appear in your build directory.
