[EnergyPlus_Support] Number of surface.

["indoman1611" <alsit303@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have solved a residential house with attic zone. However, it gives 
me warnings as follow:

** Warning ** Roof/Ceiling Tilt=90.0, much greater than expected     
         tilt of 0, for Surface=ZN002:ROOF003, in Zone=ATTIC ZONE
** Warning ** Roof/Ceiling Tilt=90.0, much greater than expected 
tilt of 0, for Surface=ZN002:ROOF004, in Zone=ATTIC ZONE
** Warning ** The total number of floors, walls, roofs and internal 
mass surfaces in Zone ATTIC ZONE is < 6. 
**   ~~~   **  This may cause an inaccurate zone heat balance  
calculation.
Roof 3 and roof 4 are triangular sections of typical residential 
house with an attic zone. The total number of the wall, floor, etc 
are less then 6 how ever, but the zone is enclosed.Two slanted 
surface, two triangular sections and a floor/patition. I uploaded 
files under Residential IDF.zip in Problem_Submittals folder.

How do I take care of these warning? Are these warning going to 
produce false results? 

Thank you,

Albert
