[TRNSYS-users] b18 doesn't work

[David BRADLEY]

Karol,

  I have noticed some similar behavior in TRNBuild. It does not seem to 
be systematic apart from the zone's thermal capacitance which always 
gets set back to its default value during the process. When I export a 
*.b18 to an *.idf, make changes, and then reimport back to a *.b18 I 
usually take a look at the before and after versions of the *.b18 using 
a text compare tool (I use CompareIt but there are many others).

  In your file it looks like a new HEATING type got added (HEAT002) and 
that the heating in zone "parter" got changed from HEAT001 to HEAT002. 
The set point temperature for HEAT001 and HEAT002 are the same though so 
I would have expected the behavior to be the same before and after the 
changes that you made in the *.idf.

The other change I notice is in the windows; two unused WINDOW types 
were removed and one new one was added.

I'm not sure that any of the above will help but I hope it does!

best,

  David
