Revision history [back]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could please assist me with he following question. More specifically, I'm working on a single office space model (to be used as a baseline for further testing purposes) - located in Golden, Colorado. This model is cooling dominant north oriented, while a single window is located on it's south wall). However, I'm not sure why switching the orientation of that model - from north to west or east- would cause increase in cooling end-use. It seems to be odd, as basically in the north hemisphere, the highest cooling demand is expected for the case when the window is located on the south wall.

Please find the idf files for all four directions here.

Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
