vent overlap warning messages #13665

I'm getting vent overlap warning for this case

smv/Verification/Visualization/vcirctest2.fds

I was not getting warning messages before this commit. The overlaps are real. The case has an open vent and also a circular vent on each of the 6 exterior walls. A side question, is there a better way to setup the case.

Ah, this is feature, not a bug. When I made the change to print extra information to the smv file about OBST faces, I had to move the location of the call statement for the subroutine that writes the smv file. Since this case is a "setup only", in the past, we would have never reached that part of the code that would print these warnings. Now we do. Good news is that these warnings are good to see if you were doing a setup check.

do you have any suggestions on how I could set up this case to avoid warnings ie to put a circular vent on an external boundary?

mcgratta commented 4 weeks ago

Did you change the order of the VENT lines?

gforney commented 4 weeks ago

yes. vent 12 cells are rejected again but this time the rejected cells are for the circular vent (since they appear last). looks like the first vent that occurs has priority.
