[Equest-users] Non-rectangular building shade

[Umesh Atre]

Richard,
I wonder if you could create an additional exterior wall and define that
as a shading surface. Then you could reference polygons of your choice.
You might have to define the wall w zero gains/losses as it would
otherwise get added up under conduction. Another option could be to
create 
an unconditioned dummy zone just for the purpose of creating these
additional shading surfaces?
I have not tried this so do not know if it would work. Just thinking..

Hello

 

Is it possible to use non-rectangular polygons as shade? If so how do I
do this?

 

Any suggestions much appreciated.

 

Regards

 

Richard
