Hello, I am a student at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in the Undergraduate Architecture program. I have downloaded Sketchup 2015 and Open Studio 1.6 and Energy Plus Version 8.1, but I am having problems understanding how to model the solar radiation and internal heat gain in my versions. My toolbar is missing the icons to model and render these variables and I am having trouble understanding if this is a problem in what I've downloaded or if the version no longer measures this data. All of the video tutorials I've watched have been filmed with older versions so I am not sure what to expect with this version. I am very excited to run these simulations so I appreciate the help that anyone offer.
