Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Unentered Other Zone Surface

["Michael J. Witte" <mjwitte@xxxxxxxx>]

When using UnenteredOtherZoneSurface, the user describes the surface only once. 
 The program then automatically creates a mirrored surface of the same area 
(unless zone multipliers are involved) and reversed construction layers in the 
other zone.  

When using OtherZoneSurface, the user describes the surface twice, once in each 
zone.

For an example of UnenteredOtherZoneSurface, see example file 
5ZoneAirCooledConvCoef.idf
