e BIOS as i noticed that i was required to do so. This is the progress i made. Now the file "do something". It takes about 4 minutes in the blockMesh component, so something is happening. But at the end of the 4 minutes i get the same error as before. Tried to run the start_OF.bat externally, but no use either.
Those are the snapshots of both of them:
Be patient ... and bear with me. Sorry for bothering with this ... and thanks,
-A.
P.S. There is a chance it is related to the firewall of my university, or some other security issue for those trying to apply virtual machines/hosting.
I'll try at home in the evening.
A more detailed image of the shell running the batch file manually:
…
ce condition I believe, which yes usually this is 0. Bare in mind that OF divides pressure by density, so if you want the 'real' pressure you would need to multiply the results by 1.205 (perhaps we add this in BF at some point but it's easy in native GH).
Vector based velocity is a very good idea, and a nice and easy way to model these kind of flows!
If you wish to experiment even further with the custom boundary condition components you can try implementing a flowRateInletVelocity boundary condition (see https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-3.0.x/blob/master/src/finiteVolume/fields/fvPatchFields/derived/flowRateInletVelocity/flowRateInletVelocityFvPatchVectorField.H)
It will allow you set the flows in m3/s, which is handy for usual HVAC specs. The direction of the patch follows the normal of the surface. Setting a minus in the volumetric flow rate assigns an opposite direction.
Thanks for using and sharing! Keep them coming!
Kind regards,
Theodore.
P.S.: Try this as an expirement. Increase the refinement of your mesh, factor of 4 should be nice. You can simply reduce the the blockMesh cell size by 4 to accomplish that. Try running the case and see the impact on the residual graph.

ters thesis on exactly stratification in atria and big semi-outdoor rooms.I am testing a bunch of variables and I was thus looking into utilizing Butterfly. However, this new update came too late in the process for me to fully test out.
I am very interested in your findings, as I had to go to the old fashion (and correct but yet very slow) way of using Ansys Fluent for my investigations.
I would however very much like to compare my results with the ways of the parametric tools, i.e. Butterfly: How valid are the results of BF so far? What could be optimized? When is the parametric tool favourable over the hardcore tools when considering these factors? What are the future objectives?
Could I therefore borrow your script later on at some point to use for my own to generate some analyses?Or would it maybe be possible for you to (in a month or so?) to create a very basic template script that is prepared for temperature analyses in an very simple atrium-like room maybe with an inlet and outlet as you are (or seem to be) making them? I am willing to go with NDA or give full credit to you and your work.
Very interesting what you are doing!!

llowing for higher skyline and construction areas along public transportation corridors. Up until now, neighborhoods once characterized by two-story houses, gardens and ground- floor open shopfront programs, have been completely transformed by the introduction of fortressed monolithic residential and office towers, which lack any sort of urban street life.
The new master-plan, however, now requires buildings to have an open street façade to accommodate multiple programs. Led by tutors from UNStudio (www.unstudio.com), the AA Visiting School São Paulo will address the changes being prescribed by the new masterplan through the redefinition of the tower typology in the extending of the ground of street culture, green landscapes and ecological mediation along the vertical axis of these buildings. For this, the workshop will teach advanced digital design and fabrication techniques to explore a series of novel differentiating structural and environmental organizations in the redefinition of the São Paulo skyscraper.

angel but when it comes to material behavior, stresses, surface tension i think that "our" tools are still no complex and powerful enough - and like i said i didn't really see the benefit in the work of my friend form the digital experiment.
so i think the question is is there a benefit from your digital experiment or do you rather stick to the physical experiment.

Again, these Profiler benchmarks don't reflect the whole picture, and might be affected by other things I was doing on the laptop while the code was running.…

,
and then I saw under Application that resources are managed by 'Icon and manifest'.
That can also be set as 'Resource file', but then a file path is required.
Is 'Icon and manifest' OK, or have I to set thing differently ?
Also, in the class code I inserted the following:
( I saw it mentioned here in the forum )
protected override Bitmap Icon { get { return Resources.colour; } }
( colour.png is the image file's name )
but VS gives me an error, saying:
Error 1 The name 'Resources' does not exist in the current context C:\Program Files\Rhinoceros 5 Evaluation\gh\plug-ins\ColourRhOb\Class1.cs 88 26 ColourRhOb
Did I miss a reference in the code ? Here they are:
using System;using System.Drawing;using System.Collections.Generic;using Grasshopper.Kernel;using Grasshopper.Kernel.Types;using Rhino;using Rhino.DocObjects;using Rhino.Geometry;
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks

s, each made from two Nurbs curves, each with different surface properties.
Curves A1 and A2 have 2 control points:
startpoint and endpoint
Curves B1 and B2 on the other hand were drawn with 6 control points each.
What's more, those point's aren't equally distanced from one another.
The lofts inherit the position of control points of the profile curves.
The distribution of control points in the loft direction is uniform.
So no suprise here:
You can think of Nurbs curves as rubber bands and of Nurbs surfaces as rubber sheets. The areas with less control points would correspond to streched rubber.
Now lets imagine you take an A4 piece of rubber, lay in on a table and draw equally distanced lines on it. When you strech it ununiformally - the distances won't stay equal anymore.
Returning to your first post:
The Divide Surface component operates on u,v values which you can imagine as dimensions of the rubber sheet in relaxed state.
So the result you got was indeed an equaly divided surface, only in the so called "parameter space" of the surface, which doesn't always correspond to the xyz space.
There are methods to divide curves and surfaces in equal distances in the way you want it. For starters check out the Evaluate Lenght component.
I think that's enough teory for today. Have fun!

orking in Grasshoper v0.9.00xx (I tried, 9.0010 and 9.0014)
If I try this code
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
System.Globalization.CultureInfo oldCI = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US");
Object objExcel;
objExcel = System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject("Excel.Application");
objExcel.Cells(2, 1).Value = "titleA";
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I see, the message
" Error: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Worksheets' (line 95) "
Line 95 is the last one < objExcel.Cells(2, 1).Value = "titleA"; >
I've also tried,
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application xlApp;xlApp = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application) System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject("Excel.Application");
But GH C# says
Error: The type or namespace name 'Office' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?) (line 89)
What did I wrong??
