Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] how to define polygon

[Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxx>]

with the advent of >4 sided polygons, you no longer have to limit 
yourself to 4 sided/rectangular floors/roofs though it is perfectly 
correct.  (ref: examplefile Flr_Rf_8Sides.idf for a floor and roof 
with 8 sides covering an L-Shaped zone.

This is the only example file with >4 sided polygons that comes with 
EnergyPlus so any of the others will illustrate making a rectangular 
floor or roof (usually).

5ZoneAirCooled.idf, for example.
