Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] How to deal with a wall which has different structures in different parts




apart from linda's suggestions
It can also be done in text editor. if you go into text editor mode or your input file and  understand how walls are specified, then you could creat a similar  wall object with the required dimensions and materials. 
eg: replicate the object below from your idf with differnt names and the required XYZ coordinates in text editor and the same wall can have different materials then.
Surface:HeatTransfer,
    Zn001:Wall007,           !- User Supplied Surface Name
    Wall,                    !- Surface Type
    METALSIDINGWALL,         !- Construction Name of the Surface
    ZONE 1,                  !- InsideFaceEnvironment
    ExteriorEnvironment,     !- OutsideFaceEnvironment
    ,                        !- OutsideFaceEnvironment Object
    SunExposed,              !- Sun Exposure
    WindExposed,             !- Wind Exposure
    0.5000000     ,          !- View Factor to Ground
    4 ,                      !- Number of Surface Vertex Groups -- Number of (X,Y,Z) groups in this surface
    4.210000     ,           !- Vertex 1 X-coordinate {m}
    71.14000     ,           !- Vertex 1 Y-coordinate {m}
    5.500000     ,           !- Vertex 1 Z-coordinate {m}
    4.210000     ,           !- Vertex 2 X-coordinate {m}
    71.14000     ,           !- Vertex 2 Y-coordinate {m}
    3.0000000E+00 ,          !- Vertex 2 Z-coordinate {m}
    4.210001     ,           !- Vertex 3 X-coordinate {m}
    51.14000     ,           !- Vertex 3 Y-coordinate {m}
    3.0000000E+00 ,          !- Vertex 3 Z-coordinate {m}
    4.210001     ,           !- Vertex 4 X-coordinate {m}
    51.14000     ,           !- Vertex 4 Y-coordinate {m}
    5.500000     ;           !- Vertex 4 Z-coordinate {m}

Dear all,

I want to define a wall which has different structures in different parts. It is the exterior wall of a room. 

But in E+, the surface has uniform temperature, so how to define the surfaces and structures? Could I divide the wall into a few parts? 

looking forward to your reply!
