[Equest-users] Outside wall to outside wall

[John Aulbach via Equest-users]

Thank you all. I just had to shake the trees to jog my DOE-2.1 memory.
A fully shaded outdoor wall is probably the best way, so thank you all.

That means I’d probably assume the walls are exterior and fully shaded. There is a pretty good chance there is at least small dead-air-space between the buildings (even if it is only a few inches), plus you have no control over what is happening on the other side of the wall… maybe the neighboring building is minimally conditioned, or becomes abandoned.

Subject: [Equest-users] Outside wall to outside wall    Hi Gang:    Food (and query) for thought.    I am doing a remodel of a New York Building that is essentially a tenement (?). Building squished between other buildings. Side walls essentially lay against next building.    Inside wall? Outside wall with no solar?    How would you model this?    John R. Aulbach, PE
