Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Relative North
The first time I heard this question was several days ago. Then the
question was why when I rotate the building 180 degrees do I get a
different answer. I was wondering if you see the same result when
actually using 90 and 270 degrees. The actual rotation angle may make a
difference in the calculations. Are you saying you have already tried 0,
90, 180, and 270 orientations. And the answer is different using 0 and
180 ... or ... 90 and 270? I am just trying to get all the information.
Also if you could upload your test building to the support group it
would help us answer this question.
