[TRNSYS-users] Additionnal Shading Modeling

[Adrien JEZEQUEL <a.jezequel@itf.biz>]

Dear TRNSYS Users,

I would like to model an external shading as described in the attached 
file.

Tu sum up rapidely, the opening I want to describe is protected in the 
same time by an external shading device and a balcony. To model the 
external shading device, I share window surface in four parts. Three of 
them contain an overhang, modeled with Type34. For the fourth one, (the 
uppest part of the window), I define another overhang; always with 
Type34 ; to model balcony shading. For a better understanding, see the 
joined picture.

My problem is to take into account in the same time balcony shading for 
window 1, 2 and 3, and external shading device.

May I connect "Fraction of Solar Shading" from Type34 with "External 
Shading Factors" in Type56 (to approximate balcony shading effects on 
the appropriate window - Window2 for example), and in the same time 
defining a shading orientation also in Type56 applied to the same window 
(window2 in my example)? What would be the best way to model that 
shading effect?

Some help in that domain would be really appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Best regards, Adrien
