RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Outside Boundary Condition

 
Hi Diogo,
 
"Adiabatic" is not yet supported for Outside Boundary Condition in OpenStudio.  Sorry for the inconvenience.  I've entered a new item for the issue in the Bug Tracker so that it will get fixed in the next release:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2782369&group_id=133018&atid=725735
 
In the meantime, the workaround is to select "Surface" as the Outside Boundary Condition and then select the surface's own name in the Outside Boundary Object.  Pointing a surface to itself is exactly the same thing that the "Adiabatic" option does.
 
By the way, I want to remind everyone that OpenStudio has it's own dedicated user support mailing list now.  The new list is the preferred venue for all support questions, bug reports, and feature requests regarding OpenStudio. 
 
To join the list, send a blank email to openstudio-support-join@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.  You must join before you can post.  After you've joined, you can send all your support issues to openstudio-support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.  
 
Thanks,
P

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Outside Boundary Condition





Hello everybody 

I´m with a problem on using OpenStudio in Sketchup. The problem is:

I need to set the outside boundary condition for a number of walls, but in the Sketchup, with the OpenStudio plugin, does n´t appear all the options on the info window. In my case, for interior walls of a zone, i need to set the condition as Adiabatic, but the option is n´t there...
Opening the IDF file in E+, all the option´s are available...
I Want to do this process in Sketchup because in total i have 400 surfaces, and their names are as Sketchup original (numbers).... doing it in E+ would be work for weeks...

In the same subject a second doubt. I´m modelling a Bank that has some buildings as neighbours! Does somebody now if E+ has a feature that describes the neighbours as a zone in which the temperature is a certain number of degrees lower then the zone in study?

Thanks a lot for the time spend

Best regards 

Diogo Cortez Alves
