Maurice, I'd recommend doing some tests to confirm to yourself that capacitance is indeed having an impact. Start the building (or zone) with a high temperature and just let it cool down in a constant temperature, no solar environment. Now change the capacitance by an order of magnitude then do the test again. The zone should cool down either more slowly or more quickly depending on whether you multiplied or divided the capacitance by 10. I usually use a value of the volume*1.2*1.007*f where f is a multiplier that ranges between about 5 and 10. kind regards, David
