Source and Diffuser

Post by ikamecha »

Hi all,

I'm getting error while running the simulation in microflo (CFD), it said "please balance the sources or add a diffuser, while displaying the net moisture and net CO2 value."can anybody help me on this. im newbie here. how to balance the sources and add a diffuser to the model?

many thanks.

Most simple would be to go to surface level in the room and add a Boundary Condition, here you can specify Diffusers etc and the properties of these and this will allow you to balance the sources.

The MicroFlo user guide can be accessed via Help menu >> User guides but if you are serious about this then perhaps some e-training would be of benefit http://www.iesve.com/training/subjects/ ... s/microflo

Hi, I have the same problem when I put some components providing heat power. Because I don't want to study the CO2 but only temperatures, I set them with null CO2, CO and moisture. Is there a way just not to run this part of the simulation, or balance the CO2 and the moisture without adding any diffusers, which are not present in my case?

Thanks,

Antonietta
