Simulation error with Orphaned Door in OpenStudio

[Abeer]

Hello,

I have been getting the following message when I run the simulation. can anyone help please?

1. Solution exception:Failed to run OpenStudio CLI:
undefined method `to_openstudio_shade’ for #Honeybee::Door:0x000002b1eeb37070

This was a bug that I just fixed 4 days ago:

fix(door): Use correct indentation for Door.to_openstudio_shade

Honeybee indoor comfort simulation

Thanks for testing that, @pedro1 . This was enough for me to recreate the issue on my end and I have just pushed a fix: This issue is that you have specified an “orphaned” Door in your model, which is not assigned to any Honeybee Face or Room. You can’t actually model heat flow across a Door like this and so the Honeybee libraries just assume that you want to account for it as shade in the energy simulation. The same thing happens with orphaned Apertures and Faces (Walls, Roofs and Floors), w…

Just like that other discussion, I’m a little doubtful that you actually meant to model an orphaned door as shade. So I might recommend checking your model setup to determine whether this is what you actually wanted.

Thank you Chris for your quick response. I have double checked my model, I am sure I have attached all the doors to parent faces (no orphaned doors). However, I still have this error while running the simulation.

If it’s the exact same error, then you have not disconnected the orphaned doors from the HB Model component. Do this, and it will work.
