The TRNSYS 16 building model was non-geometric; when you define a
horizontal surface, the only thing that indicates whether it is a
floor or a ceiling is the condition that you impose on the opposite
side of the surface.<br>

you have to decide the outputs,how can you select a surface(to

there are a number of radio buttons across the middle of the window.
You still select a zone but then you switch to "surface outputs" and
you will see the available NTYPEs for the surfaces in that zone.<br>

</blockquote>
The ceiling of one zone is set as wall type "ADJACENT" and you
indicate the name of the zone above whose floor is the same as that
ceiling.<br>

I believe that some of the feedback controller examples
(..trnsys16\Examples\...) show how to use the active layers.<br>
