Dear Trnsys users,
</div>
<div>
<br/>I am using the building model Type 56 and Trnbuild to model a stadium, I need to model a stadium covered with a convertible (PTFE) membrane with a thickness of 3 mm. I Have two questions regarding this model.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
- Firstly i would like to know how i would model this small thickness as when i model the membrane as a roof and select the PTFE material i get an error message regarding the heat transfer function.
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
-I want to model the operation of this membrane as a convertible membrane which means that this membrane opens at a certain time and close at a certain time. I tried modelling a window with the same surface area of the roof but i don't know how to remove the glazing from the window and also specify the shading material.
</div>

I would be thank full if anyone answer me.
