Revision history [back]

I am trying to study the site-specific weather effects on building energy consumption and I am using the EMS to customize dry bulb temperature, wet bulb temperature and wind speed. I am calculating wall-specific quantities with CFD. However, I need to be able to control the shades on each wall. Surrounding buildings create shades on each wall differently.

How can I do that? The shading control module in EnergyPlus only works for windows, not for whole facades. And there is no actuator to control direct and diffuse radiation on each wall.

Thanks for your help.
