FDS Beta Test

[Kevin McGrattan <kevin.mcgrattan@nist.gov>]

All

I've only received feedback from a handful of users about
the new version of
FDS and Smokeview. For those of you currently using FDS 2 or
2.2, your homework
this week is to run a case with the 2.9 version and make
sure it runs OK. Choose
a case that has caused problems in the past and make sure
these problems have been
fixed, at least those problems that I have claimed to fix.
Some problems will never
be fixed. After running the case, send me a quick note
telling me if it works as
you expected. Same with Smokeview. Glenn and I cannot
possibly check every feature
and every conceivable calculation, so you have to help. This
is the price you pay
for free software.
