<br>
I tested it for a couple of years ago and my experience was that it was very
easy to use. That is normally a good thing, but when it comes to CFD programs
they tend to be very complicated and I just figured that MicroFlo therefore
couldnt be that accurate in its results. <br>
<br>
We are looking into it again and I think its brilliant that its so simple, but
the results need to be accurate (obviously). <br>
Have you found the accuracy in the results doubtful?<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>

<p><font size=4 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:13.5pt'>Hi,<br>
<br>
ok, I've had some experience with dxf-imports. I did it a couple of years ago
and was quite annoyed with it. Has it been improved? <br>
What I found was that when it found a text it looked around it and if it found
walls then that was it, but since you can have different thinkness on the walls
and you need to find the outer limit of the outer walls, but VE stops at the
inner limit and the middle of the interior walls needs to be found it makes it
quite complicated to turn a normal dwg-drawing into a useful one or have you
worked out a smart method of doing this?<br>
<br>
When i was referering to reliability I was thinking of heat storage (with and
without false celings) and solar insolation on more complex surfaces etc. <br>
<br>
Have you had any experience with MicroFlo?<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>

Hi everyone!<br>
<br>
I just joined this mail list and I'm curious about how you use this program and
if you have found any issues. <br>
I use it extensivly and I have a few issues with it and I'm afraid that some of
the calculation methods arent that reliable. <br>
<br>
I've heard that many users import their geometry by using dxf-files. I've tried
this, but I've found it somewhat complicated. <br>
Do you have any smart methods? What program do you use to create the dxf-files?
Autocad?<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
<br>
