[TRNSYS-users] Problems with Trnsys3d

[Anne-Kathrin.Albrecht at ise.fraunhofer.de]

Hallo everybody,
I have several problems with Trnsys3d:
1.      I am working on a building that has a cellar with windows. When I 
convert the idf-file into a TRNBuild-file (b17 idf-file) the cellar walls 
are shown with a wrong area (takes the net area = gross area minus windows 
instead of the gross area) and the windows are missing. Is it not possible 
to include windows in walls that have the ground as a boundary? Of course 
the house has a light well, but I thought I could solve the problem by 
just drawing the windows and setting them to a high shading factor.
2.      Is it possible to list all the drown surfaces in a building? I´ve 
always used the surface search so far but I have two lines (drown by 
accident) that are recognized as walls with an area of 0.001 m² and I 
don´t know where they are, so it´s like searching  for a needle in a 
haystack...
Best regards,
Anne-Kathrin Albrecht
