I submitted issue #9632.

Sadly it seems no. Regex only seem possible in the "first" category, i.e. here the surface name. Not in the variable nam

Hi there,

does anyone have experience in setting the heat transfer algorithm of selected constructions? According to the IO-Manual, I can set the global behaviour via

HeatBalanceAlgorithm, ConductionTransferFunction, 200; !- Algorithm, Surface Temperature Upper Limit {C}

and can then change this for selected constructions like this,

SurfaceProperty:HeatTransferAlgorithm:Construction, BO05Override, ConductionFiniteDifference, BO05; !- Name, Algorithm, Construction Name

Seems easy & straightforward. However, I then get a fatal error when trying to run the simulation telling me that "InitialInitHeatBalFiniteDiff: Found Material that is too thin and/or too highly conductive ..." which gives a material name that is not part of the construction addressed.

Any ideas welcome. Best Achim

Workaround suggested works fine. Thanks again (by the way, the original "culprit" material was a sheet metal, not an air

I would second the described approach, likely values for thermal conduction can be tweaked/adapted by using the "mixed l

Hi, this Q/A is somewhat old, but I expect it is still basically true (except that there is a new option --convert_only

FWIW, ESP-r is maintained. I.e., there is a new version approx. twice a year and basically one can reach out to ESRU.

Thank you, Thierry! That helped a lot, now the "parallel run of two instances problem" also seems to be solved. A small
