If that is the case you have to make 2 other blocks of no significant shape next to the space that you are analyzing as fill in the blank spaces. These are really place holders for other portions of the building. You will have to make the items in these spaces use 0 energy by making all their lighting HVAC occupancy etc. 0. In other words make a schedule that turns on 0 of the equipment. The 2 spaces that abut the space you are analyzing should be drawing no energy otherwise they will show up in the analysis.
