2019-02-13 13:22:06 -0500 marked best answer Location of Daylight sensor outputs

I´m testing the radiance tools in Openstudio, and I set three Daylight sensors in the same thermal zone (Linked those sensors in that thermal zone). image description

The problem is I can´t find the luxes for each sensor. Where can I found it? Is the result in Dview the mean of all sensors? I didnt found those outputs in Result Viewer too, in the archive C:....\000_Radiance Daylighting Measure\radiance\output.sql

Thank you

2019-02-10 06:41:22 -0500 marked best answer Surface Window Net Heat Transfer Rate

In Openstudio, i´m trying to get the heat balance of surfaces and windows (The equivalence of heat balance of DesignBuilder), I know that for surfaces I have to use "Surface Average Face Conduction Heat Transfer Rate", but I wondered If its correct using "Surface Window Net Heat Transfer Rate" for the heat balance on windows, because in the pdf of InputOutput reference does´t appear this value, the search tool doesn´t find it.

So, what´s exactly the definition of "Surface Window Net Heat Transfer Rate"?

thanks you for your attention and best regards,

2017-06-01 16:50:31 -0500 marked best answer HVAC Load Profiles is different to the sum of Zone Air System Sensible Cooling Rate

I´m learning Openstudio step and step, finally I reach the simulation results about "HVAC loads", unfortunately a question appeared, and I wondered if someone could solve.

The Sum of monthly HVAC load profiles is different to the sum of zone Zone Air System Sensible Cooling Rate. I thought it would be the same.

I´m using a Cooling district in order to discover the cooling demand. Maybe the different is the latent load, if it is true, which value should I reach, because I have used "Zone Total Internal Latent Gain Rate" and all values are 0.

2017-05-22 15:38:57 -0500 marked best answer How can I customize frame window U-Value

Hello everyone!

I have a little doub, well... two doubs:

  • Where can I customize the u value of a frame for a windows, in the windows parameters I can choose a existing material frame, but I can´t create one.

  • I found in the plugin of openstudio, in "set window properties and frame" the option of selection the conductivity of this frames. but when I open this sketup model in the openstudio program I can´t found the frame create in sketchup. If I simulate in openstudio program, which U value the programe use: The sketup one o openstudio one?

Thanks!!
