[Equest-users] Interior window creation

[Jackson, Alan]

That was it. The interior-wall had to be part of the sunspace in order
for me to host the window on it. I will go around and remove the "core"
walls and replace with ones associated in the sunspace and see how my
results look.

 

Thanks!

The DOE22Vol2-Dictionary.pdf manual states that you can only have
interior wall windows if the space containing the interior wall has
SUNSPACE = YES.  The solar transmission through such interior windows is
calculated but equest cannot directly calculate daylight passing through
said window for the purposes of daylighting control.

Thanks everyone for your help. I am re-attaching the files and will
examine the Help documentation for information on the sunspace errors as
Steven recommended. After I have a more in depth look at the help files
maybe I can post some better findings, but in the meantime if you want
to examine the file I am attaching. You will get errors on loading but
if you let it load you will see the surfaces that I have retained as
EXTERIOR-WALL showing the glazed subsurface. eQuest deletes the
INTERIOR-WALL with the windows on it due to the errors.
 
Steven, to answer your question though, the wall I am placing the
interior windows on is associated with the interior space and not the
cavity/sunspace space. Perhaps the windows need to be placed on an
interior-wall that is part of the sunspace. I will try that also.
 
Thanks again
