[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Finite difference method error
Dr. Li,
Good thought, but the Conduction Transfer Function method yields results within 0.02C, as expected. I did rotate the building and get the exact same results. This shouldn't make a difference though, because wind and sun exposure were turned off.

However, I'm seeing a difference of about 3C between the two zones throughout the day. The zones remain within ~0.2C using the ConductionTransferFunction method. Thoughts?
