multiple vertical vents #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I build a compartment with one vertical vent. 
2. Then I dublicated the vents to get more cross area.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expected with the dublicated vents I will get different result, but with
one or multiple vents the result is the same.
It seems the programm doesnt sum up the vents.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

CFAST 6.1.0.32 Windows XP

Please provide any additional information below.

The documentation for vertical vents in the CFAST user's guide states

"CFAST allows only a single connection between any pair of compartments 
included in 
a simulation. This limitation is based on the implementation of the vertical 
flow 
algorithm in CFAST and on the validation efforts for the original algorithm 
development which only studied a single opening between connected compartments."

This would be better placed in the discussion groups rather than as a bug 
report for 
the CFAST software.  See http://groups.google.com/group/cfast
