Re: [TRNSYS-users] question



Salim,
  Adrien's response was quite correct. I would only add that for some door constructions, it is necessary to define the door material as a "massless layer" (in other words assign it a thermal resistance but no thermal mass). If the door is thin or doesn't have much mass, it may be hard for TRNBuild to generate the conduction response factors for the door. Telling TRNBuild that the door is just an R-value solves the problem.
Kind regards,
 David

Dear Sir,

 

As a new user of TrnSys, I want to know how to model a door in TrnBuild, is it similar to adding a window ?

 

With regards
