David,
I have run my model using both the NTYPE
901 and NTYPE903. Since I have only one window and zone shouldn’t the gains
to the zone be the same? NTYPE903 is producing a higher gain to zone. Please
can you tell me the difference between the two outputs?
Thanks

Subject: Re: [TRNSYS-users] Solar
Load
Patrick,
Try NTYPE901 - its a solar balance on a given zone. An output file will
be generated by Type56 with all the terms of the solar balance as described on
page 6-26 of the 06-MultizoneBuilding manual. One thing to be careful about is
that each entry in the output file is the value of a given energy transfer over
the previous timestep. However, the values are only generated once per hour. If
you are able to run in energy rate control and use a 1 hour time step, there is
no problem but if you are running with a shorter time step, you'll only be able
to see the value of the energy transfer over the last time step in the hour.
Its a known problem and one that will presumably be worked out in the next
version.
Kind regards,
David
I am trying to find the total solar load into a
typical office space. The typical office only has one window with a shade and
is currently facing south. I am trying to determine the solar load based on
different glazing/shades. What output in the TRNBuild model would I use to
determine such a load to the space?
Thanks for the help
