PyroSim 2021.2

Faster FDS modeling with professional results

What's New

This release adds new features and bug fixes.

This version of PyroSim is designed for FDS version 6.7.5. It uses version 1.8.0_282 of the OpenJDK Java VM.

Changes since PyroSim 2021.1.0224:

  • Added "whole word" and "case sensitive" search options to Find dialog.
  • When using multiple scenarios, the active scenario name will now be included in the FDS HEAD namelist parameter CHID. Folder and file names based on the CHID will also include the active scenario name.
  • Added the ability to scroll away from the bottom of the Run FDS Console.
  • Added the ability to launch Pyrosim on the completion of the installer.
  • Fixed a bug where the VISCOUS WALL UNITS quantity was available for gas phase devices instead of solid phase devices.
  • Updated bundled JRE from version 8u265b01 to version 8u282b08.

Changes to Results:

  • Added proximity tracing analysis based on EXPOSED: An occupant exposure model for confined spaces to retrofit crowd models during a pandemic (Ronchi, et al.).
  • Fixed a bug where the invisible back side of an FDS mesh might be selected when clicking the scene.
  • Fixed a bug where the cursor crosshairs would not properly track the cursor in right-to-left languages.
  • Results no longer stores temporary FDS preview files in the most recently used menu.
  • Updated wxWidgets to 3.1.4.

Changes in Patch 2021.2.0525

  • Fixed an issue where seams might appear between adjacent FDS slices.
  • Fixed an issue where a 2d slice created through a 3d slice or Plot3d might have incorrect transparency.
  • Fixed an issue where creating a 2d slice through multiple 3d slice regions in a single mesh would only result in a slice through one of the regions.

Changes in Patch 2021.2.0610

  • Fixed a bug that caused View Results and Plot Results toolbar buttons to show as disabled when results were available to view. This fix also corrects results filenames when launching results from the Analysis menu.
  • Fixed a bug that could cause an error when pasting 2D slices.
