Hi :)
After running in OpenStudio app I had a lot of errors like this one
** Severe ** For zone: THERMAL ZONE: CORRIDOR S1 it is not possible to calculate the volume from the surrounding surfaces so either provide the volume value or define all the surfaces to fully enclose the zone.
** Warning ** CalculateZoneVolume: The Zone="THERMAL ZONE: CORRIDOR S1" is not fully enclosed. To be fully enclosed, each edge of a surface must also be an edge on one other surface.
** ~~~ ** The zone volume was not calculated and an error exists.
** ~~~ ** The surface "SURFACE 1367" has an edge that is either not an edge on another surface or is an edge on three or more surfaces
** ~~~ ** The surface "SURFACE 1431" has an edge that is either not an edge on another surface or is an edge on three or more surfaces
............. etc (same thing for other zones)
For the severe error I checked and all the surfaces are fully enclosing the zone,and @Aaron Boranian says here that it is possible to enter manually the volume of each thermal zone using the openStudio inspector in Sketchup, but the problem is that I am modelling a residential building of 11 flats and I have a lot of thermal zones, it won't be practical to manually calculate the volume of each one and enter it.
So if anyone have an idea about how to fix this, it would be really great ?
And for the warning, I didn't know how to fix the problem with edges. Maybe if I find a solution for that, I won't have the previous error as well because apparently the severe error and the warning are related according to @JasonGlazer while responding to this post
Can anyone please explain to me how to also fix the edge problem ?
Thanks :) Greetings
