Problem with solve adjacencies

Hi All. I am having troubles with understanding and working with honeybee solve adjacency for running an energy simulation. I am on 2 minds on this: (Files Attached)

  1. when I add just solve adjacency component, model is validated by ``HB validate model´´ component but they way that internal surfaces and external walls are distinguished is wrong. please see image.

Second way: I use HB intersect solid´´ component between Hb room from solid´´ and ``solve adjacancy´´ , it is not validated at the end by Hb componenent due the reason in the image, but all of the surfaces and external walls are difined coorectly.


I want to know what is the problem in my workflow. Your help highly appreciated.

Hi @Mahdiaskari
I highly recommend starting by adding the zone groups and then adding each zone of the group one by one to check which zone is not working correctly. I saw your file and found that two of the classrooms are the problem. I think you should remove them and recreate them, paying attention to the OSNAP in Rhino. A small deviation in OSNAP makes the HB intersect solid´´ error because of the tolerance in your Rhino file.
For example, this deviation is not important in the energy simulation result but may cause some errors.
