<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:SimSun"> <span style="color:black">I am trying to use the MultizoneBuilding model to do some work. Now I have some question about the "Thermo-active Building Elements" model in TRNBUILD. I look
for help in the manuscript, which says that "Thermo-active building elements (slabs or
</span><span style="color:red">walls</span> of a building) are used to condition buildings by integrating a fluid system into massive parts of the building itself. Examples are radiant floor heat or cooling systems, radiant ceilings or
<span style="color:red">wall</span> heating or cooling systems." My question is that the "wall" mentioned above refers to the external walls or the internal walls of a building? I want to do a calculation of a external wall embedded with cooling pipes by using
the "thermo-active building elements" model in TRNBUILD, is that ok?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
