[TRNSYS-users] Emissivity of wall material (TYPE56)

[Philippe André]

Dear Yoshi,

Another possibility we have used in the past is to change the average 
surface temperature parameter (available under the "project" window / 
properties in TRNBUILD) according to the formula given below:


This way, it is possible to define a fictitious coefficient TmeanNEW which 
is the Tmean which is needed in the model in order to have the effect of a 
modification of the surface emittance:

                                                                             
                             (7)





where   eNEW    is the required emittance.

Best regards,



Philippe.
