[TRNSYS-users] thermal bridge

["nicola" <nisorbi@hotmail.com>]

Dear all,

I'm modelling a wall wit a thermal bridge effect.

I found a bug in TRNBuilt :

1. If I put the value of resistence equal to xxx (hmK/kJ) in the layer manager, the program create a wall with a U-value expressed in kJ/h m^2K and a resistence equal to xxx in hm^2k/kJ!!!
2. the u-value of a wall with thermal bridge effect is lower than the same wall without thermal bridge effect.

Somebody have any ideas how correct this bug?
