Yu-Wei,
As far as I know, there is no way to import an EnergyPlus *.idf into TRNBuild. The legacy OpenStudio plugin to SketchUp used a very narrow portion of the *.idf file format and since Trnsys3d is built on the legacy OpenStudio plugin, we used the same for importing geometry and very basic default wall constructions into TRNBuild.
kind regards,
David
Hello all,
I'm a user of TRNSYS 17. I'd like to know if there is a way to import the EnergyPlus idf file to TRNBuild. I tried to import idf (v7.2) by the function in TRNBuild "file -> import TRNSYS3d file...". However, the TRNBuild cannot import the file properly. Nothing showed up after importing is done. I had tried to use TRNSYS building wizard and TRNSYS3d to create a new idf for TRNBuild. But none of them worked.
Is there a way to import EnergyPlus idf file to TRNBuild properly?
Thank you for your help,
Yu-Wei
