Improve display of Activity Track heat input

[John Bowling]

While I very much like the Activity Track concept, I'd like to be able to view the heat added to airways via Activity Tracks visually as "New Heat Input" etc. I understand these currently only view heat inputs defined in airways. I think they should included the contribution of heat from Activity Tracks (if modeled in steady-state/as distributed effect).

Please include steady-state heat contribution from Activity Tracks in the displayed values for Heat > New Heat Input, New Latent Heat(/L), New Sensible Heat(/L), and New Total Heat/L.

Hi John, 

Thanks for the suggestion. I've sought to do this in the next version of Ventsim. Currently, it is only the properties Heat | New Heat Input and Heat | Point Diesel Power which do not include inputs from the Activity Tracks (New Latent Heat(/L), New Sensible Heat(/L), and New Total Heat/L already include Activity Track heat).

In the next version I will make Heat | New Heat Input and Heat | Point Diesel Power include the Activity Track heat. I will also change the name to Heat | Diesel Power.

This should be out tomorrow.

Ventsim version 5.4.4.4 will be available next week with this change.

I'll post here again when the official 5.4.4.4 is available and get you to update to it. 

Let us know how it goes.
