[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: higher temperature, lower cooling rate

["markus_gmeinder" <markus_gmeinder@xxxxxx>]

I reviewed the "details report". I am shure that the walls are 
facing the way I want. The .dxf shows the walls with the tilt angles 
and even in the "detailes report the angle is e.g. 50°. The azimuth 
is the same as in the real model. I integrated detached shading in 
each model. I will run the simulation without shading. 
thanks
