Dear All,
I’m trying to use TRNSys 17 and specially TRNsys with SketchUp and I found 2 problems.
I would be really greatfull if somebody could help me solving these problems.
· First question: I defined a model on SketchUp (geometry) and I saved it as .idf to create afterwards a TRNSys file (.tpf and .b17). My question is really simple: If I want to change information in my .skp (or .idf) file, is it possible to update this information in the TRNSys file (.tpf and .b17) or do I need to create a new project with TRNSys and a new .tpf and .b17? If guess is possible to update directly information from the .skp file to the .b17 (otherwise I do not really understand the added value of using SketchUp), but I do not understand how to do this update.
· Second question: In my SketchUp model, I have different cells and for some cells, it is in contact with more than one cell. If I want to define in the “object info” in “construction” that the cell is an ADJ_Wall, then I select Zone in “outside Boundary condition” and I select the “outside boundary object”. But unfortunately, I cannot select several “outside boundary condition” whereas the face of the cell which is shown on the 2nd picture is in contact with two other cells. I know that I can fix this problem directly in TRNBuild but could I do it in SketchUp?
Thanks a lot for your answer and help
Regards
