Slice Vectors are not output in FDS 6.7.4 for Species Mass Fraction

[bwklein]

If I run the file (attached) in 6.7.3 I see 2D Vector Slices as an option to load in Smokeview and PyroSim Results viewer. If I run in 6.7.4, 2D Vector Slices are not an option to load in either program.

Check and see if you see vectors in latest smokeview. I have a vague memory of fixing something similar.

I'm not seeing vector slices in the latest smkeview. the problem is occurring in the case of smokeview because smokeview looks for U-Velocity, V-Velocity and W-Velocity in the .smv file to form the velocity vectors. FDS is no longer outputting these names when VECTOR=T is put on a &SLCF line. Instead of searching for U/V/W-VELOCITY to be the entire quantty string you could look for U/V/W-VELOCITY to be at the end of the quantity string. That is what I will have to do.

Do you know of any other changes like this to the information output from FDS?

Bryan,
I would expect a lot of changes to output as we try to scale up visualization for large cases. I would make sure you have unit tests integrated with latest FDS source. And, at a minimum, monitor any changes that get made to dump.f90

I'll leave this case open for @gforney to close when Smokeview is fixed too. I've moved the issue to our internal tracking system for changes to Results Viewer.

should be fixed in smokeview posted here

I'll close this - if there is still a problem reopen the issue
