Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Subsurface error





Do you want to share the .idf file so I can take a look.

The other possibility in case you have more than one sub-surface for SURFACE 19 [which is probably is the case in your example since it called as SUB SURFACE 3] is that the total area of sub-surfaces is bigger than the area of the base surface.

I have the following error regarding a large door on a building wall. No matter how many times I try, I cannot get rid of it. I have ensured that the coordinates of the subsurface are indeed within the base surface. I have also checked and rechecked to ensure that the coordinates are in the right order (starting in the UpperLeftCorner and in a CounterClockwise direction as mandated by my GlobalGeometryRules settings).

** Warning ** Base surface does not surround subsurface (CHKSBS), Overlap Status=No-Overlap
** ~~~ ** The base surround errors occurred 1 times.
** ~~~ ** Surface "SURFACE 19" misses SubSurface "SUB SURFACE 3"

Anyone ever had this issue before?
