[TRNSYS-users] Type36 & EX6

[David Bradley [SEL]]

Dear Michele,
  The example is correct. If you refer to page EX6-1 and EX6-2 in your 
TRNSYS 15 documentation, you will see the specifications of the Type19 
building used in Example 6. In Type19 the specified wall areas do not 
include windows - the net areas, not the gross areas are required. In 
the example, the gross east and west wall areas are each 31.2 m2. The 
west wall has 3 m2 of window area making its net area 28.2 m2. The north 
wall measures 10 m by 2.4 m (24 m2) while the south wall measures 10m by 
2.8m (28 m2). As with windows, the Trombe portion (15 m2) of the south 
wall is treated seperately. In this case it is treated by Type36. The 
remaining area of the south wall treated by Type19 is 28-15 = 13 m2.
Kind regards,
  David
