Dear All,
I am trying to conduct a radiance simulation using DB v3 and it gives me the following message:
ocinv: falal - (dbmodel.rad): bad arguments for glass "glazing10035"
Does anybody knows what does it means?
Kind Regards,
Felipe Duran

Filipe could you post the dsb file that generates this message?
Thanks,
Andy

Andy,
Thank you very much for your quick reply. Here is the model, I finally could solve the problem erasing and re assigning the glazing template.

Felipe,
The problem here is that some of the windows in the model have lost their glazing setting. This is causing problems in Radiance. I've changed the code to trap for this in future and generate an error message.
The problem may arise due to an upgrade from an earlier version of DB. Is it possible the database of glazing systems was loaded at library level? I ask because this is a known cause of component data loss.
Actually the easiest way for you to solve the problem might be to run a heating design calculation. This generates a list of errors indicating the names of the zones with the missing glazing setting.
Andy
