I am using EnergyPlus v. 8.9.0 to simulate a building envelope consisting of four wall surfaces. I am trying to graph the changing of the inside face surface temperature and then comparing the graphs using a different material for the surfaces.
I have got the output for the inside face surface temperature, however, on the first timestep (I am using 60 seconds for the timestep) the temperatures are different for the two different material. My logic said that it is supposed to start from a single same temperature, isn't it? What arrangement should I do to make it work? Or is there an input somewhere on IDF Editor that stated the temperature of the surface on t=0? Thank you.
