[TRNSYS-users] shading device: modelisation of fixed and steep louver system

["Bastien GARBAY" <garbay@enertech.fr>]

Hi,

 

I would like to establish a model of a external louver system with fix and steep blades. I used the Type 34, but this type is not appropriate to represent the real shading effect of the louver system in function of the solar angle. On the building, this shading louvers enable to protect a room from the sommer sun but not from a winter sun, in order to have moderate temperatures in summer and solar gains in winter.

 

Have someone already tried to represent such a louver system? A picture of this system is on the following link: http://greensource.construction.com/products/images/gs-image-Colt-08-06-07.jpg

 

Thanks
