Advisory Messages (Energy Evaluation)
The “Advisory Messages” dialog box appears if:
•
the required input data are insufficient
See
Additional Data Assignment and Input
.
•
there are simulation errors
See
VIP-Core Dynamic Simulation Engine (Energy Evaluation)
.
Errors will be required to be resolved before continuing. However, resolving Warnings is optional.
Errors And Recommended Solutions
(mandatory to resolve before continuing)
•
Physical properties of a used materials are not defined.
•
Error icon: “Building Materials with missing properties”
•
List of missing Building Materials
•
To-do: “Select the relevant Building Material from the dedicated dialog box and enter the missing values (values are required to be more than zero) in the Physical Properties panel.”
•
“Climate data is not available.” (missing or the server is not accessible)
•
Error icon, “Climate Data is not available.”
•
“To edit the Climate Data, open the Environment Settings dialog box from the Model Review palette.”
•
“One or more used Building Material/Composite Structure is missing.”
•
Error icon, “Structures with missing attributes.”
•
List of structures with missing Building Material
•
“Select the relevant model elements and edit its Building Material attribute.”
•
“Energy simulation runtime error.” (engine errors during the hourly energy simulation)
•
Error icon, “Simulation engine errors.”
•
List of <Engine error code + description>.
•
To-do: “Contact technical support:”
•
“No valid Operation Profile selected.”
•
Error icon, “Operation Profile is missing or not defined.”
•
To-do: “Select an available profile from the Operation Profile dialog.”
•
“Energy model analysis error.”
•
Error icon, “Energy model analysis did not found any structure or openings.”
•
To-do: “Check the geometry of the Zones and update them using the Update Zones command.”
Warnings And Recommended Solutions
(optional to resolve before continuing)
•
“Zones are outdated and/or have errors.” (i.e. not up to date, overlapped zones, visible zones which are not assigned to any TB) - zones on hidden layers will not appear
•
“Outdated zones:”
•
List of Zones - Zone ID, zone name, thermal block name
•
To-do: “Check the geometry of the above Zones and update them using the Update Zones command.”
•
“Location data varies between project location and climate data.”
•
Warning icon, “Location data does not match between project location and climate data.”
•
To-do: “Either modify the project location from the Project Location dialog box or modify the climate settings from the Environment Settings dialog box accessed via the Model Review palette.”
•
Simplified building system is attached to a Thermal Block.
“Thermal Blocks with simplified building system:”
•
List of Thermal Blocks - color swatch, number, name
•
To-do: “Choose detailed settings from the Building Systems dialog and add the relevant details of HVAC systems used within building.”
•
“Building shell contains one or more empty opening(s).”
•
Warning icon, “Building shell is not closed because external wall contains empty opening.”
•
To-do: “Review the Opening list and modify empty opening if necessary.”
On the Structures and Openings lists, a yellow warning exclamation mark appears next to those entries which contain faulty or missing data. (The problematic list items are also highlighted in pink.)
