Welcome to the TRNSYS Users Forum.
The forum is a place where people can interact and have discussions about different topics involving the use of the TRNSYS software package. Here you can post topics for discussion or questions on using TRNSYS and get advice from other users or TRNSYS experts. This forum is not intended for detailed technical support. Users should contact their distributor’s hotline for such assistance.
Some tips for success on using the forum:
- Follow the Forum Rules posted in Forum Administration.
- There are categories for different types of topics and questions. Post your topic or question into the proper category.
- Before posting a topic or question search the existing topics (and the TRNSYS Users listserv archive or Post archive) to see if a similar topic or question has already been answered.
- Use a descriptive topic name. Don’t use attention getting subjects, they don’t get attention and only annoy people.
- State the version of TRNSYS and which add-ons your are using.
- Include enough specific details for your topic of question to be answered. Just posting “Why am I getting an error?” without describing the specific error and what you are trying to do when you get the error will not receive a response that fixes your issue.
- Remember when people help you, they are doing you a favor. Be patient, help people out by posting good descriptions of what you need help with, and be polite even if a response does not solve your issue.
- Moderators may edit your post for clarity or move your topic to a more appropriate category.
During creating new glazing using Window 7.4, the final DO-2 report format window file has to be edited for TRNSYS to read it properly. I have a query regarding the very last editing requirement mentioned in the tutorial mentioned in Trnsys 18 Tutorial 9-206. I have quoted that part below.
""Dynamic daylight simulation based on DaySIM has been integrated into the TRNSYS multi-zone building model Type56. In contrast to the thermal model of Type56, the visible transmittance considering the spectral sensitivity of the human eye is needed for the daylight simulation. This value can be obtained from a product data sheet or from an additional calculation of the glazing system with a different standard file for example W5_NFRC_2003.std and prEN_410.std , respectively.""
Can you provide some more details on how to obtain this Tvis_daylight value using a different standard file W5_NFRC_2003.std and prEN_410.std? Is this somehow relevant to how at the very beginning we set the preference path of the standard file to be used for optical data of the window (snap shot added)?
