SVG not being created?
I'm working with an EnergyPlus model and after a successful simulation run the SVG is not created.
Reading into the Auxiliary Programs documentation it appears the post process program HVAC-Diagram.exe creates the SVG from the BND file. The BND files appear after each simulation, and an appropriate eplusout.bnd is created in the EPTEMP folder during simulation.
Any thoughts on why the SVG is not being created? Can I run the HVAC-Diagram.exe with my output BND renamed to eplusout.bnd in a specific location?
How are you running EnergyPlus? EP-Launch, command line, batch file?
For this particular model I am running my IDF using EP-Launch @JasonGlazer
To help diagnose the issue, run the file in EP-Launch after you set the option for pausing. To set this option, go to VIEW, OPTIONS then under the COMMAND WINDOW choice, check the box labeled PAUSE DURING SIMULATION. After this when you press the SIMULATE button, the DOS box that is executing EnergyPlus will pause several times during the steps before and after the actual simulation including once right after HVAC-Diagram is called. What messages are on the screen after HVAC-Diagram is called?
Jason @JasonGlazer, I am having a similar problem and when I tracked the error the way you suggested here is what I get:
"Operating system error: Not enough space Allocation would exceed memory limit"
Any thoughts?
If others see the "Operating system error: Not enough space Allocation would exceed memory limit" please try the file in the latest version of EnergyPlus (currently 8.5.0) that seemed to fix the issue.
