Re: ApacheSim Error

I tried modifying those parameters, but nothing happened, it still gives me that error. I modified the internal gains and ventilation levels, and checked the adjacencies. I also reduced the time step, but still nothing happened. I'm not using MacroFlo.

Re: intersections

Thanks for the answers... I actually did it using the slice tool and erasing the part of the intersection... something similar, but maybe a little slower... :D

intersections

Is there any way to fix intersections without doing merge? because once i do that, some other rooms start intersecting with each other and i can't merge them, because thay have different thermal properties... They intersect in some minor corners... I don't want to import everything again from Revit...

ApacheSim Error

Hi,
when i run the simulation, it shows the window with the information about SunCast. I pressed yes and then it starts. The problem starts after a few seconds calculating. It shows me a window with this message in it:
Error: Surface temperature instability in room 04172957. Possible remedies: add ...

Re: SunCast ERROR

I did find the problem... and it was that when i runned the calculations reducing the number of shading surfaces, it wasn't enough. I erased a lot of new surfaces and it worked... sorry for taking your time...
However, when i want to run the apache simulation, on the appearing window, right under ...

Re: SunCast ERROR

Before that, i will run once again the calculations for the first model... How many rooms is reasonable for the calculations to run smoothly and without errors? And to connect and merge zones helps to make them one? because i don't want to have exteriors on my interiors... I just check the model and ...

Re: SunCast ERROR

I had a similar problem, but this time it was a little different... I tried another model, that is part of the whole model (the project is really big), and it started the calculations until may at 10:00 am... then it crashed... so i made an analysis till april and it went perfectly fine. Then i ...

Re: SunCast ERROR

Thanks a lot Phil.
I tried to do the solar simulation before I changed the values for the constructions and the rooms conditions and it worked... I just made the model check and it seems to be ok... no intersections and non-planar surfaces... at least on the report says:
"Scanning Model for ...

SunCast ERROR

Hi,
I can't get the SunCast calculations for Apache done.
I get this error:
Unable to re-allocate 355930260 bytes in augmnt(): tpb(2) pointer

after that the software closes.
The procedure is the following:
I imported a gbXML from Revit, i cleaned the errors from model check. Cleaned the extras ...
