MACROFLOW not working?

Hi,

I am modelling a simple building with high level windows running around the top of the walls on 2 sides. I have modelled these in macroflow to open every day by 20% when the temp is above 18C. the results are no different to the windows being closed all the time. I have double and triple ...

I would like to import a construction template from a different project to the one I am currently working on.

Using the Building Template Manager I have attempted to import the construction file from the different project, but I can only find the initial default constructions and none of the ones I ...

Re: Constant Temperature Profiles

Many thanks. I understood that I needed an absolute profile, it was how to fix the units that I was puzzling over. simple after all. :)

Constant Temperature Profiles

I know this probably really simple but I can't figure it out.
How do I set up a constant temperature profile?
Not obvious in ApPro and I can't find any info in the user guides.

thanks,

Re: Plastic strip door curtains

Update
After reviewing some literature I changed the crack length to 250% to allow for overlaps which reduce the air leakage. Given that these curtains in an industrial environment can be effective a separating different internal environments am I being overly cautious?

Plastic strip door curtains

I'm creating model of an existing factory with plastic strip door curtains. I have modeled these with a crack length of 350% and modulating profile of 50%.
does anyone have any thoughts on whether this is a reasonable approach or alternative suggestions?

thank you

Editing vertices - won't action

I have a couple of rooms which are insertecting other rooms. I have tried to edit the vertices for the overlapping areas but the system won't complete the action as it states that the two rooms are overlapping. (I know!)
I have double checked the vertices in each room so I know that I'm doing it ...
