Re: [TRNSYS-users] Does Shadings Work?



Dear Eva,

 

You should have .shm file in your project folder  to take into account shadows form sketchUp.

You can create it in TRNBuild: Generate->generate shading/insolation matrix or ALT+S

To understand construction of .shm file I advise you to read relevant chapter in vol. 05 Multizone Building of Trnsys documentation.

 

In short if your window is shadowed it should appear in .shm file. Shadowed means that there is some obstruction for sun radiation expect flat surface on which window is placed.

 

Regards,

Karol

Subject: [TRNSYS-users] Does Shadings Work?

 

Dear TRNSYS team members,

How can I know whether shadings created in sketchUp do work in TRNBuild and my 3D Building project?

Thanks a lot.

Yi Guo (Eva)
