<p>Susana,</p>
<p> The steps that you describe are the correct ones and I just
made a very simple example to make sure that there is not a
fundamental problem with importing adjacent windows. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p> There is a maximum number of surfaces allowed in a model so it
is possible that may be the problem. I have also had models that
just turned sour on me and I have found in some cases that I just
had to delete the windows (or walls) that were not importing
correctly and then redraw them.</p>
<p> <br>
</p>
<p> If none of those ideas solves the problem then you should send
the *.idf and *.b18 into your distributor to see if they can offer
some help.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>

Adjacencies have been thorougly checked and the <b>dck</b>
file has also been properly set. The simulation works OK and I
have been able to get some results. All the windows are light
blue in the Sketchup-Plugin Trnsys 3D file. And the internal
ones have been drawn simetrically in both adjacent thermal
zones.</div>

¿Could you please give any useful tip to solve my problem? ¿Is

it?</div>
