2017-07-17 22:33:56 -0500 answered a question calculate dynamic SHGC for Electrochromic glazing

Thanks for your answer, I want to check about something... i measured the SHGC by dividing Surface Window Transmitted

2017-07-17 04:57:44 -0500 asked a question calculate dynamic SHGC for Electrochromic glazing

calculate dynamic SHGC for Electrochromic glazing hi, i want to calculate SHGC on energy plus hourly for example in 21

2017-01-23 07:53:10 -0500 answered a question dynamic shading, EMS with different slats angels,wide more than 1 meter

Can any ony help me with how to dynamic horizontal overhang width more than 1 meter??????

2017-01-20 10:52:37 -0500 commented answer output the hours of each condition of dynamic shading (closed-open-partially shaded)

this what I did exactly, for dynamic shading, to have 3 windowMaterial: blind with different slat angle (30,60,135) and to have three construction with these three blinds, and to design EMS Program to change these three constructions according to temperature ( like the idea of thermochromic glazing )

I want to ask, how to have a dynamic horizontal sun breakers with EMS with wide more than 1 meter because the blind are not more than 1 meter?? @JasonGlazer

2017-01-20 10:48:16 -0500 commented question EnergyPlus or grasshopper - best for dynamic glazing and shading

my work is with accumulating between electrochromic glazing with dynamic horizontal and vertical shading with wide more than 1 meter, I used energy plus, but I was asking if there is another simulation program may be more efficient with dynamic shading ???

2017-01-14 05:06:01 -0500 asked a question EnergyPlus or grasshopper - best for dynamic glazing and shading

Which tool - EnergyPlus or grasshopper -is the best to simulate dynamic glazing like electrochromic glazing and dynamic shading? Why?

thank you for replying

for dynamic shading, I want to chek if is right or not, to have 3 windowMaterial: blind with different slat angle (30,60,135) and to have three construction with these three blinds, and to design EMS Program to change these three constructions according to temperature ( like the idea of thermochromic glazing )???

2017-01-12 02:44:51 -0500 asked a question output the hours of each condition of dynamic shading (closed-open-partially shaded)

In case of using dynamic glazing and shading in EnergyPlus, how can I output the hours of each condition, that the shading was closed, opened, and partially shaded?

2016-10-21 09:46:53 -0500 asked a question Electrochromic from WINDOW LBNL to energy plus

CAN ANY ONE HELP ME which is the BEST way to report glazing dynamic glazing which has many states from clear to dimming, from WINDOW LBNL to energy plus in WINDOW there are two ways: 1- idf file 2- BSDF idf file for each state

if the BSDF is the best way, how can I combine many states together ??

A problem with inputting BSDF .idf from WINDOW to energy plus for Glz system

To report *BSDF IDF for all of the states of an electrochromic glazing system,* and in case of copying the( window material:glazing - window material: gas - window thermal model: params - construction : complex fenestration state) which in the BSDF.idf generated from WINDOW LBNL to my case study .idf file it shown like the picture what can I do input the four states of the Electrochromic glazing to my idf file to control them with EMS ?? is way is right or any one have another suggestions?

but still my second problem that the cooling load doesn't calculate with EMS ?????

2016-10-08 10:25:03 -0500 answered a question THERMOCHROMIC modelling with EMS or without

the EMS modelling approach can be considered a suitable alternative to the EnergyPlus built-in model, and it could also be successfully extended to other dynamic glazing technologies that do not have a built-in model available in EnergyPlus, provided that an accurate thermo-optical characterisation of the dynamic glazing is available.

2016-06-15 09:16:31 -0500 marked best answer for intelligent dynamic windows,how can i import idf file from WINDOW LBNL to open studio??

My master is about intelligent dynamic window glazing glazing and shading, and using energy plus is not friendly, so I am trying to use OpenStudio and importing the intelligent window structure from WINDOW LBNL.

Are there any suggestions? How can I import IDF file from WINDOW LBNL to OpenStudio?
