this with real measurement values!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=046364107-19012010><FONT color=#0000ff
size=2 face=Arial>- You split the wall between the two active layers, construct
the wall to the separation-zone and define one of them in each
room.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=046364107-19012010><FONT color=#0000ff
size=2 face=Arial>- You set the outside convective heat transfer coefficients of
both walls to 0.0001 (direct contact).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=046364107-19012010><FONT color=#0000ff

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=046364107-19012010><FONT color=#0000ff
size=2 face=Arial>- You create two outputs with the
outside-surface-temperature of the two walls.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=046364107-19012010><FONT color=#0000ff

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=046364107-19012010><FONT color=#0000ff
