CBECC-Com Issue #836

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I try to use the CBECC-com for envelope and lighting compliance only and I got 
an error message once I inputted the wall portion.

If the wall is removed and I only have floor and roof, the calculation works. 
The error message is related to FluidSys property and HVACPrimary-General.rule 
which is outside of our scope.

Could you advice me how to fix the errors? I checked the example files. Once I 
changed the compliance to envelopeonly, I received similar errors.

It appears that you are getting errors because your geometry inputs are 
incorrect.  When doing a project using simplified geometry, you must model all 
exterior surfaces, and all spaces must have a floor.  When we took you model 
and include three exterior walls on all spaces, interior floors and exterior 
roofs for the upper spaces, and underground floors (slab on grade) for the 
lower spaces we were able to get the model to run to completion.  

We are not sure why the geometry issues caused a water heater error message, 
but that’s what is happening.
