Not able to visualise vectors (0 length and 0 residual values) #367

Closed Myssterium closed 5 years ago

Myssterium commented 6 years ago

Hi all,

I posted as a reply to another issue but i think is more appropriate to start a new one.

After a lot of trial and error I finally managed to make latest version of butterfly working. The problem is, while running the recipe, the residual values come out 0, as well as vectors have 0 length subsequently. Units of model and scene are meters , so the issue is not scale.

Can please someone advise?

I am using the example file of outdoor Airflow.

Attached you will find info screenshots related to the issue.

Thank you hack capture

I faced exactly the same issue and I'm not able to solve it for several days

Can you try with the newer version and see if the issue persists?

We just posted a new version of Butterfly for Grasshopper that works with BlueCFD-Core and does not need Docker and VM installation. Try the steps below to install the new version.

  1. Try downloading the newer version 0.0.05 from Food4Rhino. Use the installer file to remove the old version and install the new one.
  2. Install BlueCFD-core following this link.
  3. Restart both Rhino and Grasshopper and try one of the updated sample files that comes with Butterfly installation package.

Feel free to open a new issue if it didn't solve the problem.
