Crash when defining horizontal ground heat exchanger

[RuthUrban]

Issue overview

We created an OpenStudio model with a horizontal ground heat exchanger, but OpenStudio isn’t allowing input of “Undisturbed Ground Temperature Model” in the object “OS:GroundHeatExchanger:HorizontalTrench”. The field is greyed-out and can’t be selected.

Current Behavior

The simulation crashes with this message:

“[BOOST_ASSERT] <2> Assertion modelObject failed on line 175 of class openstudio::model::ModelObject __cdecl openstudio::model::detail::GroundHeatExchangerHorizontalTrench_Impl::undisturbedGroundTemperatureModel(void) const in file D:\OSN\src\model\GroundHeatExchangerHorizontalTrench.cpp.”

Expected Behavior

Possible Solution

See discussion on unmet hours: https://unmethours.com/question/97673/horizontal-ground-heat-exchanger/
We (with help) developed a work around, but this should be properly fixed.

This seems like a NREL/OpenStudio SDK issue. I'm guessing it's the clone method that's messed up.

Yup, filed at NREL/OpenStudio#5074
