Dear DB support,

I can't seem to place vents on external floors for E+ simulations. I can place them on walls. But I need some floor vents on a double wall cavity with aluminum cladding external floor, no concrete slabs. I can place holes on these external floors, though.

I say this because I can't define the vent type in the openings tab of the concerned floor surface and it cannot be viewed in the rendering/visualization.

If this possible in the next betas? Or is there something wrong with what I'm doing? I'm using the latest beta.

tnx!
Jun

I get it. No need to model the holes on the external floor. Large horizontal openings are poorly modeled in airflownetworks. Should find another way to do it.
