Message-ID: In the source distribution of ESP-r in the manual/OS/Apple folder is a text file named setting_up_ox.txt. It gives instructions for setting up the 'tool chain' needed to compile ESP-r on OSX. What I have used on many many OS X computers is the Macports environment. It has the whole suite of GNU compilers (and they all match). They get put in /opt/local/bin When you give the Install command include the --compiler_version option e.g. --compiler_version -mp-4.7 if /opt/local/bin includes gcc-mp-4.7 g++-mp-4.7 and gfortran-mp-4.7. If you get a different version adapt the command to suit. I have attached a copy of the instructions. It works on OS X 10.7 10.8 10.9 and 10.10. -Jon Hand ________________________________________ From: esp-r-bounces at lists.strath.ac.uk [esp-r-bounces at lists.strath.ac.uk] on behalf of Raghuram Kalyanam [kalyanam at rhrk.uni-kl.de] Sent: 18 January 2016 12:52 To: esp-r at lists.strath.ac.uk Subject: [esp-r] Error installing ESP-r Hi Everyone, I am having hard time installing ESP-r on my MacOSX.

There are two general approaches. Both assume that you have distributed mass flow cracks around the facade and have openings between rooms: a) Set all internal zones to fixed 50 Pa and boundary notes to fixed 0 Pa. This assumes that a blower door test raises the internal pressure to 50 Pa uni-formally in all zones. b) Don't bother setting specific pressures at boundary nodes or zone nodes except at the single boundary node that represents the blower door - it should be a fixed pressure 50 Pa. To explore the impact of cracks some people create a simple mode with one zone with volume equal to the whole building and then add crack components around the facade surfaces and ensure that the blower door is represented as a fixed pressure. Run this and see what the reported flow is. Adjust the length or width of the cracks and run again until it is close to the blower test.

Here are the steps to follow: ----------------------------------- You need a git client. Once you have that create a folder for working with ESP-r. In the example below we use ESPrgit as the folder name for the source distribution: cd cd Src mkdir ESPrgit cd ESPrgit git clone --recursive https://github.com/ESP-rCommunity/ESP-rSource.git git clone --recursive https://github.com/ESP-rCommunity/ESP-rDatabases.git git clone --recursive https://github.com/ESP-rCommunity/ESP-rModels.git git clone --recursive https://github.com/ESP-rCommunity/ESP-rDoc.git Then use rsync to get the contents of ESP-rDatabases, ESP-rModels, and ESP-rDoc into a consistent master folder so a full install can be carried out. Here are the steps assuming a folder ESP-rMaster is created: mkdir ESP-rMaster rsync -av ESP-rSource/ ESP-rMaster/ rsync -av ESP-rDatabases/ ESP-rMaster/data/ rsync -av ESP-rDoc/ ESP-rMaster/doc/ rsync -av ESP-rModels/ ESP-rMaster/models/ In ESP-rMaster will be everything you need to fully build ESP-r. You can remove the hidden .git bookkeepping folders within ESP-rMaster as they are no longer needed. To build ESP-r in this example to /opt/esru give the following commands: cd ESP-rMaster ./Install -d /opt/esru --gcc4 --debug As databases and example models get upgraded regularly say yes to questions about databases and example models.

In regard to output of res data, I would strongly advise to look at the text mode and automate your results extraction by creating appropriate scripts (below an example to extract all zone air temperatures). Also, you may want to look at the xml output feature. To use this, you need a file called input.xml in your cfg folder (or better, in the folder where you fire up bps ? which should be the cfg folder to avoid issues). You can set this up via prj (I think). Otherwise, below is a rudimentary version. This will generate a file called out.dictionary after a simulation run in which all variables available for xml output are given. The output is on timestep basis as .csv file. Good luck!

As per your suggestions I have corrected the data referring to material properties and it turned out that after inserting actual values for respective materials, simulation is possible to run for a whole year ( the simulation process no longer collapse). However I have got one more question - is it possible to do the export of more than 11 columns of results? Currently I manage to export at once max. 11 columns of the results although the analysis I run have more than 11. Currently, in order to get the full outcome I must open the resulting file several times and export the results one by one which is quite inconvenience. Thank you again for your help.
