Hello Nicolas
For your second
question, version 2.0 of trnbuild shows the import option when you open the
software without any project loaded:
But once a project is
loaded, the file menu changes and allows you to reexport your .b17 to a .idf.
You must close the
project or open a new sessions before importing another .idf.
Best regards.
Ps : I’m interested
in answers for your first question…

Hello,
I'm trying to use trnsys3D, which seems
very promising.
I have two very simple questions.
1)
Is it possible to define two walls in the
same plane, as shown on the following figure ?
It's a door inside a wall.
According to my experience, this is not
possible because TRNSYS3D will define two walls :
-
the door (0.9*2.01),
-
the full wall (3*3.44), and not
(3*3.44) - (0.9*2.01)
Could you please correct me if I'm
wrong/confirm what I think/give me any trick that I would have missed?
(Probably the only option is the following :
2)
The manual seems to say that it is possible
to directly import .idf file in TRNbuild…
But this option is not available in my
version of TRNbuidl (2.0) :
Is this normal ?
Thanks,
Kind regards,
