In this case:</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style=""><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt">SHADING-SCHEDULE</span></b></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="">Takes the U-name of a SCHEDULE (with TYPE=MULTIPLIER) that defines hourly values of a multiplier on the solar gain through the window. This represents the shading effect of movable devices such as blinds, drapes, or shutters. Items that change solar transmission may also affect heat conduction. If so, a matching CONDUCT-SCHEDULE should be used. If the SHADING-SCHEDULE is not input, the schedule will default to 1.0 for all hours.</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">“Solar gain” is the load incident on a space as a result of the sun/sky’s energy entering through a fenestration and being absorbed/interreflected by internal surfaces (floors/people/furniture…), manifesting as heat radiation in the process. If you have a window device or seasonal treatment that varies not only the light coming in but also appreciably affects the conductive transfer of heat through the window/frame opening, then define a CONDUCT-SCHEDULE as well to account for those effects.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">An aside to clear up a potential source of confusion: building shades can optionally be given a SHADE-SCHEDULE, which is in practice/function very similar to a SHADING-SCHEDULE for windows.

<div> </div>
<div>Thanks for your inputs...yes, this seems a major challenge. I was thinking of creating a dummy floor in between (with 'open to below') and give inclined facades..but I doubt if there are any options in eQuest for inclined or angled facades..in between I read from one of the forums that it can be done in DD Edit...!!! still trying to find ot out, any idea if that option is available in eQuest..?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And yes, I need to try it GBS and IES too....I would also like to see anybody here in our community has done similar models with slanted facades/spherical structures etc....</div>
