Hello energyplus community,
I'm wondering did any of you ever come across the issue of willing to create or change building physical model automatically? Like in a parametric study or something?
As IDF file can be easily edit as txt file, so change some of the input parameters are quite easy and straightforward, like setting point temperatures. But the building physical model is consisted of lists of surfaces and sub-surfaces which are interrelated(the points defining the surfaces needs to be changed altogether).
So my question is, whether there exist any method to create or change building physical model automatically in the IDF without use Openstudio coupling with Sketchup to manually draw a brand new model?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
Regards, Amy
