Roy Moreby Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Hi I have just copy and pasted some airways from one file into another. They represent future shafts that I have excluded from simulation - just want to see where they are going to go. Simulation failed due to invalid presets (shock) airway - due to being set differently in the other file I assume. I can fix this by changing all the presets to those in the target file but I have had this issue before with various other parameters. Just a pain (or maybe me being lazy) Any chance you could change the checking routines (airflow, gas and heat etc) to ignore excluded airways completely i.e. only raise errors if an airway is being used in the simulation.

Martin Griffith Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Hi Roy, we will have a look at doing this. We might add a settings option to ignore warnings on excluded airways. I will reply here again once we've done something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Moreby Posted August 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Hi Martin To be clear - this caused a simulation fail and not just a series of warnings. All worked ok when I changed the presets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Griffith Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Hi Roy, The Invalid Preset Error is an error (red), rather than a warning (yellow), so will itself cause the Simulation Fail. We've made a change so that Excluded airways are not checked for Invalid Presets, which should do what you're after. I'll post here again when the next version is available (probably tomorrow).

Martin Griffith Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Hi Roy, we've made this change in the just released version of Ventsim 5.4.2.1, available here: https://ventsim.com/download/minor-releases/ Ventsim will now not report Invalid Preset errors on Excluded Airways.
