Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Use of EnergyPlus for simulation of cold storage facilities

[Rob Hitchcock <RJHitchcock@xxxxxxx>]

Randall,

EnergyPlus does have the capability to simulate skylights, and tubular 
daylighting devices (TDDs).  Daylighting impacts are simulated as well 
as solar and thermal impacts, in an integrated fashion.
