[TRNSYS-users] R: Problem with TRNSYS 3D

[Giulia Mezzasalma]

Dear David, I opened and close sketch up a lot of time but it didn't work. I tried also to draw again the two thermal zones in another sketch-up but it doesn't work. Besides since that the line I put inside touch also the two perpendicular external wall, it doesn't allow me to saw and/or change the properties of those two walls.

What you suggest me to do?

Thank you very much indeed

Best Regards

Giulia

Giulia,

  It seems that maybe the Trnsys3D plugin is not functioning correctly. I would first try closing down SketchUp and then reopening it. It appears from the pictures you attached that you are doing the right thing. Are you able to see the properties of other walls if you click on them?

kind regards,

 David

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
