Dear TRNSYS-Users, In this news group a question concerning modelling differences of Type 56 between the following option of an opaque surface was posted:
Both options yield to the exact same results
WALL =REFEND_TERRE_CRUE : SURF= 3 : AREA= 2 : INTERNAL WALL =REFEND_TERRE_CRUE : SURF= 5 : AREA= 1 : BOUNDARY=IDENTICAL WALL =REFEND_TERRE_CRUE : SURF= 6 : AREA= 1 : BOUNDARY=IDENTICAL The reason for this is that Type56 splits the INTERNAL surface (a) into 2 equivalent surfaces with half the area. We recommend to use the option “BOUNDARY=IDENTICAL” because
The option “BOUNDARY=IDENTICAL” is kept up to now for “historical reasons”.
It is under consideration to drop this option. Marion -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
