Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Simulation using HAMT model for two zones

[Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The thing I notice is that the construction on the two
interior walls is not reversed/symmetric:

Construction,
    Interior
Wall,           !-
Name
   
Plasterboard,           
!- Outside Layer
    Glass Fibre
ins,         !- Layer 2
   
Concrete,               
!- Layer 3
   
Plasterboard;           
!- Layer 4

See if you make one of them:
Construction,
    Interior
Wall-rev,           !-
Name
   
Plasterboard,           
!- Outside Layer
   
Concrete,               
!- Layer 2
    Glass Fibre
ins,         !- Layer 3
   
Plasterboard;           
!- Layer 4

you get better results.  I thought we had a check for non-symmetric
constructions but we may just check for identical R/U values in the two
constructions.
