Hi I want to construct a new airloop in openstudio model using ruby bindings, now I know how to construct it but the name is defaulted:
irb(main):068:0>new_AirLoop = OpenStudio::Model::AirLoopHVAC.new(model)
irb(main):069:0> new_AirLoop.name.get
=> "Air Loop HVAC 1"How can I change this name? Any suggestion?
new_AirLoop.setName("A new Name") should do the trick!
Thanks, sorry to bother you but do you have any tutorial or other documentation? I barely find these material online.
The OpenStudio::Model object list can be found HERE which contains most of the methods needed for each model object. Some of the more general methods can be tricky to find, if you click on the 'inheritance diagram' for AirLoopHVAC you will see it traces back to OpenStudio::IdfObject which contains the setName() method, found HERE
Using new_airLoop.methods in an interactive prompt is also a good way to see what's available. The naming conventions in openstudio are generally pretty clear.
