[TRNSYS-users] Problem to model shading mask with Trnsys 3D

[vincent.coste@amoes.com]

Dear Trnsys users,

 

Before using TRNSys-3D, I thought the big advantage was the easy way to model shading masks by drawing masks directly on SketchUp (using shading groups function).

However, analyzing the results, I realized shading masks were not considered  by the model.

Is it normal ? 

Did I miss an important step ? 

Did one of you obtain results with shading masks drawn by SketchUp ?   

 

In addition, I don’t understand how shading masks are modeled (if they are modeled) : the simulation studio file created by the 3D-Building Project Wizard do not use types (like Type 67 or 68 or 34 …) so radiations from the weather file are not modified before the Type 56.

 

Thanks a lot for your answers !   

 

Best regards,

 

 

Vincent COSTE
