EMS Sensor for Zone Exterior Windows Total Transmitted Beam Solar Radiation Rate
Hi there,
I am currently using the OS Version 3.7.0. I would like to use the 'Zone Exterior Windows Total Transmitted Beam Solar Radiation Rate' as an EMS Sensor. The exact same sensor worked with OS Version 3.4.0 a while ago. Julien already mentioned it could be an issue with the newish space topology in E+ but I already tried to use the space name as KeyName without success. To check if the zone name leads to the problem I tried using the same key name for another zone report variabel 'Zone Mean Radiant Temperature' which worked without any problems. Do you have an idea before I try to loop through all windows and setting an EMS sensor for each window?

Can you provide your OpenStudio model via e.g. Google Drive or Dropbox?
