[TRNSYS-users] Problem with TRNSYS 3D

[Giulia Mezzasalma]

Dear all

I hope that someone could help me.
I've got TRNSYS 18 and I'm using for the first time TRNSYS 3D with sketch-up. I've got a case study with two thermal zone of different height (picture 1). The adjacent wall of zone 1 is higher than the same adjacent wall of zone 2. I tried to put a line in the adjacent wall to divide the wall and put adjacent in the bottom and external in the top one, but sketch-up didn't give me the possibility to define a type of trnsys wall (picture 2) in the two different part of the wall. Am I doing something wrong or I cannot do it and I have to divide the zone 1 in two different zone (or eventually airnode)?
Because this is a simple work, but I would like to do another work and If I have to divide every zone when I have different border I have to separate the building in 108 thermal zones instead of 30 and this will slow and complicate a lot the work.
I hope that someone could help me.
Thank you very much indeed

Best regards

Giulia
