Simulating varying parameters

Dear all, I have series of issues modelling with OS and E+, although am very new to this but I just need to learn now. I want to ask about how to vary shading coefficient (SC), window to wall ratio in open studio/E+. I Know how to create a building in OS with different WWR and safe as separate files but I don't know how to do that of shading coefficient in either programme. Again I would like to know there is any better way rather than building 7/8 different model with different WWR.

Also, in my last trial I had 22 warnings which I think its way too high and would like to see where to troubleshoot the simulation result but could not find it. I would appreciate any assistance.

Thank you everyone olutobi

Simulating varying parameters

Dear all, I have series of issues modelling with OS and E+, although am very new to this but I just need to learn now. I want to ask about how to vary shading coefficient (SC), window to wall ratio and different orientation in open studio/E+. I Know how to create a building in OS with different WWR and safe as separate files but I don't know how to do that of shading coefficient in either programme. Regarding orientation, I find the four orientation in energy plus but not in open studion (that is N,S,E,W) but I need to simulate 8 different orientation in my study and I do not not how to go about this. Again I would like to know if there is a better way rather than building 7/8 different model with different WWR, WWR in OS, I guess there should be.
