- | ??? Can I have larger or other designed versions of ENVI-met than 250x250x30 grids? | + | |
- | What about a 100 x 400 grid version? It is the same amount of grids... | + | |
- | + | ||
- | !!!The size 250x250x30 is the maximum size possible for a 32Bit application. Also, it is the maximum size that is reasonable as far as computation time is concerned. In the future will will think of methods for distributed computing which allows lager areas to be simulated. | + | |
- | We provide ENVI-met as it is. We will not create special customized versions for you. | + | |

- | ??? I have seen some model results from ENVI-met using features that I cannot find in my version.... | + | |
- | There are papers about photocatalytic NO degration, water spray cooling or the cool TreePass. Where are they in my version? | + | |
- | !!! There are two different versions of ENVI-met | + | |

- | !!! As a microscale model, ENVI-met is not designed to simulate very large areas such as an entire city. You need to pick selected or typical areas and simulate those as case studies. | + | !!! By default, as a microscale model, ENVI-met is not designed to simulate very large areas such as an entire city. |

+ | ??? How do I get support? | ||
+ | |||
+ | !!! There is a large number of documents, online help and video tutorials on our web page and it is growing constantly. | ||
+ | In addition there is our online forum, but remember that this is not an online hotline. Some question might be answered, others not because they are too complex. Also this is intended as an exchange forum between users. | ||
