[TRNSYS-users] External horizontal louvers (Horizontal slats) modelling in TRNSYS for simulating thermal radiation and daylighting



Dear All,
I want to model a horizontal automated slat (motorized Louvers) on TRNSYS to simulate the daylight and heat gain/radiation through the window with the slats. The figure of the slat is given below:

Fig: Horizontal slat for controlling the daylighting as well as thermal radiation entering the fenestration
I am wondering how can i incorporate the shading device i.e. the horizontal slats on my model. Is it possible to draw the slats on google sketchup TRNSYS 3d plugin and do the trnsys calculation of daylighting and thermal radiation? 
Is it possible to model these slats and change the tilt angle of the horizontal slats?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Ashmin Aryal
