IDA ICE 4.8 SP2
Changes in IDA ICE 4.8 SP2 (rel. to IDA ICE 4.8 SP1)
+ New IFC export template. The old one did not work with simplebim. Now also exports additional parameters.
+ New weather translator supporting svb-files.
+ For cooling and overheating simulations with multiple simulation periods,
the user-defined "on simulation" graphical scripts are executed again after assembling the peak summary
+ Improved process management for daylight calculations due to problems experienced with Win10 Enterprise
+ If the program is in offline mode, new instances started from the 'File/Start additional session'-menu are started in offline mode as well
+ Updated registration dialog
+ Updated EULA
Changes in models
+ TankStrat Modification of ideal and non-ideal models regarding convective flow from internal heat exchangers
and temperature inversion.
+ CeDetZon Added liniearize to M (activity met)
+ DetWind Adjusted calculation of UGlasswoSurfRes, UWind, UWindPure and UFramePure for better stability
and accuracy for single pane windows.
Introduced for this two new variables, Rin1 and Rout1.
+ Enthalpy_wheel Modified calculation of etaS_TSet
+ Face Fixed one coefficient in Perez model
Shade
Shade_C
Fixed bugs
+ Fixed appearance of imported bitmaps in rotated editor views.
+ Fixed saving interior roller shade to database
+ Fixed error in SP1 that tried to avoid updating resources with equivalent objects from database
+ Fixed error in calculating wall edges (for wall/surface areas and thermal bridges)
+ Fixed cases of losing the last user input (e.g. when pressing Save, the last input may be accepted after saving the document). Not applied to modal dialogs.
+ Fixed crash when running daylight calculation with too small daylight plane
+ Reinstate schedule smoothing in ESBO. Set temp_throttle = 0.2 (already released in standalone ESBO 2.2.1)
Possibility to set schedule smoothing in ESBO
+ Fixed error in uvalues of roofs towards ground in some cases.

+ Fixet hot start with script (run-as ...).
+ Upgraded function "IFC Shift" to support the recent version of IFC import
+ Fixed recalculation of parameter REF-FLOOR-AREA used in reports to print results "per square meter".
This parameter was sometimes set to 0.01 when loading existing .idm files, leading to wrong results "per m² floor area" in reports.
+ Fixed test of self-intercection after editing building parts with holes
+ Fixed bugs in presentation of building parts with multipart roof and with roof parts outside of building body
+ Fixed bug with venetian blind slat angle in Daylight calculation

+ Fixed crash when running heating design with option "Fans off" and a local AHU in some zone.
+ Avoid crash when reading output file with missing requested column(s)
+ Fixed error message "Wrong argument NIL in BIND" when loading systems with user-defined macros
+ Fixed sharing violation in Parametric Runs
+ Fixes problem with zone multiplicity not being taken into account in skylight areas in input data.
+ Fixed error in double-glass facade when the parameter "opening schedule" is irrelevant and not equal to "Never open".
+ Avoid crash in ISO 13370 basement wall modeling in case when the basement depth is smaller than 0.25 m
+ Avoid crash when reading output file with missing requested column(s)
+ Fixes positioning of balconies when less than 50 % of the section area of the balcony covers the zone or
if the balcony is placed higher than 1 m below the ceiling of the zone when there is no zone above.
+ Fixes column "Slope" in Details table for non-vertical windows and openings inserted in faces
+ Fixed encoding of file names in mail.zip sent to ICE Support. Relevant only when using character set different from Western European (1252)
+ Fixed building estimator: it was not possible to repeat simulation
+ Fixed crash when flipping a zone with leaks in walls
+ Fixed function parmrun-simulate-from-file (only available from scripts)
+ DetWind: Adjusted calculation of UGlasswoSurfRes, UWind, UWindPure and UFramePure for better stability
and accuracy for single pane windows. Introduced for this two new variables, Rin1 and Rout1.
+ Fixed error when a "simple room" is simulated repeatedly
+ Fixed flipping zones with leaks
+ Fixed error in loading versions in version project
+ Fixed wall slope in tables (when is not 90 deg)
+ Fixed bug in function calc-zone-envelope-u-and-constructions
+ Fixed bug in sticking to lines
+ Fixed error with resources in version projects
+ Corrected Power values in Activity level table in Help documentation to occupant load
+ Improved detection of degenerated faces (with all vertices on same line)
+ Fixed translation of Help documentation
+ Fixed function add-component
+ Fixed ground temperature in ISO 13370 model for desing simulation with wrong climate file in Location.
(added patch ground-temp without option for constant temperature)

+ Fixed bug with extruded geometry in adjacent wall shown at wrong position
+ Avoiding Lisp errors caused by some errors in user models

Overwrite climate file when downloading (to fix old downloading error)
+ Fix timesplit bug.
+ Fixed case when polygon-composition returned self-intercecting polygon
+ Fixed case when wall-external-part returned value >1
+ Avoid crash when removing resource from palette
+ DB entry for esbo-building-type (ESBO building estimator)
+ Fixed memory leak in SketchUp import
+ Fixed unit for CO2 in zone sensor menu
+ Fixed text in fan coils
+ Introduced "reversion" between nodes with negative stratification by modifying conduction across layers.
