CAMEL+ Training Workshops Return - ACADS-BSG

September 28, 2026by Jocelyn Damian

Our next round of CAMEL+ online training workshops will be held on the 18th and 25th of November 2026. These interactive sessions are ideal for new users building a solid foundation in CAMEL+, or more experienced users looking to reinforce their understanding, with guided project examples and live Q&A throughout.

 

CAMEL+ Workshop One 

📅 Wednesday, 18 November 2026, 12:30–5:00 pm AEDT

 

Includes a walkthrough of the basics of CAMEL+, how to set up a load calculation, the most effective ways to analyse your results, and more. You will learn:

  • Heat load calculation fundamentals
  • How each input screen in CAMEL+ is used
  • How to efficiently set up your AHUs, Zones and Rooms using the Tree Structure screen
  • Understanding AHU coil psychrometrics and bypass factors
  • How to review the psychrometric graphs to sense check your results
  • How to best use the different results screens

 

CAMEL+ Workshop Two 

📅 Wednesday, 25 November 2026, 12:30–5:00 pm AEDT

 

Covers some of the more advanced features of CAMEL+, along with a further two example projects. You will learn:

  • The wall shading features available in CAMEL+, including more complex examples
  • How to model shading from adjacent buildings
  • How to apply shading to roofs
  • How to evaluate shading effectiveness using the Shadow feature
  • How to use the storage mass calculator
  • How to model outdoor air preconditioners
  • How to set up different load schedules
  • How to model chillers, boilers and circuits
  • How to analyse the results for more complex systems

 

Building on the CAMEL+ workflow basics covered in Workshop One, we’ll use the CAMEL+Cnect 3D Builder in Workshop Two to quickly input the building geometry, giving us more time to focus on the engineering inputs.

 

Every participant who registers for either workshop (or both) will receive one month of 3D Builder access for free (valued at $99). Your free month will start on the day of the first workshop you attend. Access will be applied to your existing CAMEL+ user account, or to a trial account if you’re not an existing customer.

 

The user interface for HYENA+ is much cleaner and more user friendly than the UI used for the original HYENA program. This makes the experience more enjoyable, easy, and less taxing when using the program for long periods of time. HYENA is an excellent tool to have and its now web-based nature with HYENA+ has allowed it to become even more beneficial.

It has always been a pleasure dealing with ACADS-BSG team due to their helpful nature and quick response time to any inquiries and technical issues. Camel\Hyena works out of the box and install time is in seconds, I cannot recommend any other company that provides better customer service other than Catherine and her team.

Catherine and the team at ACADS provide customer service of the highest standards always offering the best solutions for our business with fast response times. I would highly recommend ACADS-BSG.

The ACADS BSG suite of software has been used by VOS Group for 30 years. We as a company have grown as the software capabilities have changed with usability and technology. The support from head office has always been quick and accurate, with a resolve to overcome any obstacles. We have always found the outputs to be accurate and reliable and a good basis for good engineering design.

Moving to a cloud based platform has improved the overall performance of the software. [being able to log in from any device] has improved my overall productivity as I only need to carry my smart phone or a tablet, and I can do my job remotely. Tools and functions are clearly organised within the new interface reducing any confusion for a new user. Copy+ Paste option saves a lot of time for Engineers like me. It just works like an Excel Sheet, where you can copy items and paste them somewhere else. It saves a lot of time especially if you are working on a single project and you want to do multiple calculations.

[HYENA+] allows me to quickly switch from one calculation to another without losing any data. This has reduced the overall lead time in doing calculations. I am sure [HYENA+] will have a positive impact on the Fire Industry.
