Fernanda,
There is no representation of shading surfaces visible in
TRNBuild. In order to see the impact of shading, you'll need to
generate the shading matrix file from TRNBuild, which is an option
in the TRNBuild Tools menu. This will create a file with the
extension *.shm. If the *.shm file is found in the same location
as the *.b18 file then shading will be taken into account. If you
move the *.shm file then shading will be ignored. Also keep in
mind that Type56 assesses the impact of shading only on windows,
not on walls so if your building has very few windows then the
impacts may be minimal.
kind regards,
David

Hi Everyone,
I have a problem with
the shading zones in my model. I draw two shading groups and
3 thermal zones in trnsys 3D (Sketschup). When I import the
idf file in trnbuild, fist I can’t see the shading zones, I
see only the thermal zones. Then when I simulate the
operative temperature of the thermal zones that have
shading, I got the same results as when I simulate the same
thermal zones without shading. So I can´t see any different
with shading and without shading. I already use the tool
generate shading/isolation matrix but I can´t see any
different.
Can anyone help me with
that? I could be grateful
Best regards and happy
New Year
Fernanda
