Open-FDD Python package (PyPI)

open-fdd (PyPI 4.1+) ships:

  1. ECM engineering (open_fdd.ecm_engineering) — agent-drivable HVAC spreadsheet workbooks + Python benchmarks.
  2. Pandas oracle (open_fdd.rules, open_fdd.analytics, open_fdd.reporting) — vibe19 catalog, analytics helpers, Engineering Findings.

The ECM API fills the same workbook input cells a human engineer would fill. It does not replace the visible spreadsheet calculations.

Production FDD (DataFusion SQL fault detection) lives in the GHCR container stack, not this wheel.

Install

pip install open-fdd                 # ECM only (stdlib)
pip install "open-fdd[oracle]"       # + pandas rules / analytics
pip install "open-fdd[reporting]"    # + Engineering Findings extras
pip install "open-fdd[vibe19]"       # playground meta-extra

For the FastAPI ECM example:

pip install "open-fdd[ecm-web]"

Oracle rules (pandas)

from open_fdd.rules import RULES, run_rule

Generate a workbook in a few lines

from open_fdd.ecm_engineering import ECMJob

job = (
    ECMJob("Lincoln Middle School")
    .set_global(
        area_ft2=85000,
        electric_rate=0.145,
        gas_rate=0.92,
    )
    .add_ecm(
        "static_pressure_reset",
        fan_kw=55.9,
        hours=4100,
        baseline_speed=0.82,
        proposed_speed=0.67,
    )
    .add_ecm(
        "boiler_reset",
        base_therms=48000,
        base_eff=0.86,
        prop_eff=0.92,
    )
)

job.save("Lincoln_Middle_School_ECMs.xlsx")

The resulting XLSX contains the engineering inputs and formulas for human review.

Independent benchmark

from open_fdd.ecm_engineering import ECMJob

job = ECMJob("demo")
result = job.calc(
    "fan_affinity",
    design_kw=55.9,
    hours=4100,
    baseline_speed_fraction=0.82,
    proposed_speed_fraction=0.67,
)

CLI

open-fdd-ecm calculators
open-fdd-ecm demo --out Demo_ECMs.xlsx

Engineering posture

Prefer measured BAS, utility, TAB, nameplate and manufacturer data over defaults. Generic chiller %/°F methods are screening proxies; manufacturer performance maps or calibrated EnergyPlus should replace them when stronger estimates are needed.
