Check for material(s) before calculation

Checks all visible domains to see if a certain material, which should not be in use is being used. If this option is checked, then the model will not only be searched for critical material, but small domains with critical material will be assigned material according to determined standards, and larger domains will be highlighted.

Name

The name of the critical material(s), which should not be present in the model. If more than one type of material is critical, then each material name should be surrounded by quotation marks, and separated by a comma. Ex:

"Critical Material 1", "Critical Material 2" 

Automatically assign materials

Determines whether domains that do not exceed a certain size and have a critical material should automatically be assigned a material according to certain standards. The critical size and the standards can be determined separately.

For areas smaller than

Critical size for a domain assigned a critical material, which should be assigned another material. All domains with an area less than this value are automatically assigned a material according to the current assignment standards.

With the material of the neighbor with

Here, you can choose the standards by which smaller domains with critical materials should be assigned a material. The following criteria can be chosen:

- greatest density (the domain with the critical material takes on the material of the neighbor with the greatest density)

- greatest area (the domain with the critical material takes on the material of the neighbor with the greatest area)

- greatest lambda (the domain with the critical material takes on the material of the neighbor with the greatest thermal conductivity)

- smallest lambda (the domain with the critical material takes on the material of the neighbor with the smallest thermal conductivity)

Critical material color

Color that domains with critical materials should be highlighted with.

Automatic division

Determines whether air cavities should be divided according to 10077-2 into smaller air cavities:

Division of air cavities can have a significant influence on the results of the calculation. According to the norm, only air cavities with outlets smaller than 2mm are allowed to be subdivided into smaller air cavities.

Ignore existing divisions

Determines whether manually defined, visible boundaries of air cavities to other air cavities with the same properties should be ignored or taken into account in the division calculation.

Division of air cavities can have a significant influence on the results of the calculation. According to the norm, only air cavities with outlets smaller than 2mm are allowed to be subdivided into smaller air cavities.

Marker Color

Color with which additional division points should be highlighted.
