Res: [EnergyPlus_Support] Solar radiation on a sloped surface

[Paulo Jose Schiavon Ara <paulo_ara@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you very much Linda.

 

I will try to use another type of surface, and also specify the surface name.

 

Thanks!

About this I have two questions:


1)      Is this problem being caused by the type of surface which I specified (shading) and in this case should I use another type of EnergyPlus object to model my 1m2 surface?

Yes, I don't think solar incident is reported for shading surfaces.

 

2)      Is it possible to obtain the results only for the sloped plane and not for all surfaces in my model (walls, windows, etc)?

Yes.

Output:Variable,<specific surface name>,Solar Ext Incident,hourly;

(sorry, don' thave exact output variable name)
