I would also love to know. I've been pushing for DesignBuilder to
incorporate this into their external CFD Model so I can transfer the
boundary conditions easily to e+. I've been waiting 7 years at least. Till
now, I've been using the algorithm in e+ AFN modules, but it's not ideal. I
have to manually tweak for courtyards, and so on.
