However, i still cannot find the right material type for my shading device in order to input the green facade properties. I think you are right about the transmittance schedule. |

| 2017-02-28 15:13:24 -0500 | asked a question | How to model a green facade in openstudio using a Building Shading Object? I have built my model in OpenStudio and i try to simulate a green wall as a building shading device (BS), (according to Thermal simulation of a double skin façade with plants by Silvana Flores Larsena, Celina Filippínb, Graciela Lesinoa) with the transmittance of the foliage layer. Although, i can't find out which type of material i have to use in order to input Solar transmittance 0.2, Solar reflectance 0.3, Visible reflectance 0.09, View factor to ground 0.1, Convective coefficient 6, that are given and what the final shading construction is. I would appreciate your help on this problem. Thank you in advance. |
