6th June 2014: iSBEM_5.2.b patch release
Following up from the recent feedback regarding iSBEM_v5.2.b, a patch has now been released to correct some minor functionality issues which have been identified and taking the opportunity to carry out further improvements to the current version of iSBEM_5.2.b.
The key amendments in Patch01 to iSBEM v5.2.b are as follows:
- Correction of a problem in the “Import details from mdb” facility which allows the assessor to import his details from a previous version of iSBEM.
- Correction of a problem that occurred in the interface when users attempted to create additional thermal bridges in envelopes, windows, or doors.
- Correction of a problem that prevented the calculation from running if users input the CHPQA QI parameter in the definition of a CHP generator.
- Correction of a problem that prevented the calculation from running in certain cases if users defined non-transpired solar collectors.
- Correction of a problem with the application of demand-controlled ventilation in the 2013 notional building for England in some cases.
- Minor corrections in the NCM Activity Database to amend the occupancy schedule of the university office activity and the processing of the hot water demand in a few activities such as university small-scale workshop.
