<title>Vent face area vs free area</title><link>http://branzfire.com/forum/read.php?2,42,42#msg-42</link><description><![CDATA[ Does Branzfire make any allowance for the difference in vent flow capacity for face area vs net free area?<br />eg an open door may be say 2sqm, but the free area is may be down to 35% of that (Klote &amp; Milke). The manual doesn't make mention of any automatic Cd factor, and there is no allowance to enter one in the vent proeprties.<br />Is any Cd applied to the vent areas entered by BF? What value?<br />If not, given the difference between width and height of a vent for flow and the non linear effect of changing one or the other, what is the recomemnded scaling method so the vent sizes entered in BF actaully reflect the expected vent performance?<br />Geoff]]></description>

<title>Stop statement encountered</title><link>http://branzfire.com/forum/read.php?2,37,37#msg-37</link><description><![CDATA[ During a recent what-if exercise of 8 narrow slots (40x 2.6m) connecting some spaces, a window popped up with &quot;stop statement encountered&quot; (ok). Clicking the Ok button made BF immediately quit? Any idea of what this error means? I managed to make it work with wider (60mm) slots.<br />I suspect the result is that it won't give me an answer I can rely (even if it works) on with my desired set of inputs.<br />Geoff]]></description>

Have you installed into a network drive or into an area which is not the default install location? Do you have a writable 'my documents' folder?<br /><br />Colleen]]></description>

I can't lauch the simulation, because I always have the same message : &quot;The emissivity of the ceiling material in room 1 is not a valid value. Please check your input&quot;<br />I check, it is the value of the software. If I pick a other material with other emissivity, I have the same message.<br /><br />Someone can help me ?<br />Sorry for my english.<br /><br />Adrien Gilles]]></description>
