<p>Sachin,</p>
<p> One way to handle this would be to activate an external shading
factor on the affected windows in TRNBuild. You can set the factor
to be an input to Type56 and then use an equation or write a
component to determine the fraction of solar blocked by your
motorized shading device and its controls. It might be good to
start by running the building once with no external shading device
(just building self-shading) and then to run it once with some
idealized form of your motorized shading (block all beam radiation
after noon or something) to see the magnitude of the impact that
shading the windows will have before you spend a lot of time
developing an equation or a component to model the actual shading
device.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>

<div dir="ltr">Dear All,
<div> I hope you are safe and doing great. I am a
student and for my research I need to model a set of motorized
shading slats in the building model for optimization. Is there
any guide or manual for modelling such thing in shading zone? </div>
<div>Please provide instructions in steps. </div>
