2019-12-23 02:28:58 -0500 marked best answer Unacceptable heat transfer coefficient values

Dear Community,

I have modeled a simple shading system over a single window (venetian blinds) with a glare control on it, but when I output the Hcv on hourly basis, there are some hours that Hcv value is equal to 1000 between the shading system and outer layer of the window!

It seems there is sth wrong within the idf file but I could not find any clue.

Your help is highly appreciated on this issue.

Regards Amir

Dear Community,

Is there any possibility to import a schedule into E+ that contains short time intervals like 15 minutes?
