Re: [TRNSYS-users] external shading

[David Bradley <bradley@tess-inc.com>]

Karin,
  There are a number of ways to treat shading in TRNSYS and I am not sure 
that I know which one you are using. By "external shading" do you mean the 
field in Prebid that allows you to specify a fraction for external shading 
and a fraction for internal shading? If so, then I believe that specifying 
complete (opaque) external shading prevents any solar from going through 
the window.
Kind regards,
 David
