Re: [TRNSYS-users] Geo-Info in TRNBuild after giving up using Sketchupb/c of errors

["Matt Duffy" <duffy@tess-inc.com>]

 Hello,

First in your response to the TRNSYS3D plugin, I highly recommend reading the TRNSYS3D tutorial for the plugin. Also, if you share some of the issues you were having, I might be able to provide some advice or work-arounds such as the other TRNSYS user, Ganapathy Iyer, did earlier today.

If not using TRNSYS3D for the shading, you will most likely have to apply the Type34 wingwall shading component for whatever windows or walls that have overhang shading, building self-shading, etc. I would apply the Type34's where necessary and leave the GEOSURF as a default.

Best regards,

Matt Duffy

Subject: [TRNSYS-users] Geo-Info in TRNBuild after giving up using Sketchupb/c of errors

Hello,

After getting infinite error messages drawing zones in sketchup with Trnsys3D plugin, we decided to add zones and type in information manually in TRNSBuild. After all the hard work for several days, we just found out about Geo-info that shows all the vertexes, shaders and zones and we think we are in a big trouble!

I would like to know whether there is any solution to add building geometry and external shading geometry in Geo-info sine using sketchup is not reliable at this point. Also, what if we go on without typing in building geometry and external shading geometry in TRNSBuild? If anyone has a similar problem, please let us know what you have done. Thank you.
