2018-11-04 04:48:16 -0500 marked best answer How do I correct North axis angle in OS?

1._How can I define the North Axis angle in my model if the geo-location is not available for my SU version (SU Pro 2016).

After I finished the geometry, I realized the EAST facade is oriented wrong. I read in some of the answered questions here that the green axis represents north in my model, which was supposed to be correct, but when I use the Shadow tab and start swiping from morning to afternoon in SU I realize the sun is rising in the wrong facade. 2._If I rotate the building does that interfere in the simulation? I mean, will OS understand the correction in the orientation I've done?

3._In Legacy/Euclid there is a place to configure the north axis angle, but in OS no. So, how can I make sure it is correct in OS?

Thanks

Hello,

I'm using SU Pro 2016 + OpenStudio 1.10.0 and watching and reading the tutorials I realized I do not have the bar/buttons "Rendering Settings" available for temperature simulations.

How can I load it into my version?

Thank you.

2018-02-19 19:12:41 -0500 marked best answer How can I get the measure "air speed (m/s)" to be seen in results viewer?

I'm using OS 1.10.0 + SU Pro 2016 and EP 8.4.0

I'm calculating PMV and PPD for my model and I've already selected the necessary measures for calculating it, but there's one I don't know where to find or how to add in "Output Variables", which is AIR SPEED/AIR VELOCITY (or indoor air speed) of each space of the residential model I'm working in.

The only one according to air speed I found was "Zone Outdoor Air Wind Speed" which is not an interior measure.

Could you help me find/add it please?

2017-11-20 09:46:58 -0500 marked best answer How to fix white surface in View View Data Reporting Measure?

Hello,

I'm trying to see temperature results in Results Summary, I've tried checking many things in OS Inspector in order to correct problems regarding the surface settings, but couldn't fix it. In "View Data Reporting Measure" there is a window that appears WHITE in the simulation and I don't know how to correct it (or if it is the result of a mistake anyway), or why this might be happening. Could you help me explaining that, please?

Thanks.
