Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Help me!2



I am not sure how you want to simulate your wall but it appears that the 
inputs you have chosen are not correct.

** Warning ** CAUTION -- Interzone surfaces are occuring in the same 
zone(s).
** ~~~ ** ...use Output:Diagnostics,DisplayExtraWarnings; to show more 
details on individual occurrences.
** Warning ** GetSurfaceData: InterZone Surface Azimuths do not match as 
expected.
** ~~~ ** Azimuth=180.0, Tilt=90.0, in Surface=52B6F0, Zone=DPTO 6
** ~~~ ** Azimuth=180.0, Tilt=90.0, in Surface=iz-52B6F0, Zone=DPTO 6
** ~~~ ** ..surface class of base surface=Wall

BuildingSurface:Detailed,
52B6F0, !- Name
Wall, !- Surface Type
M. INTERIOR TERMOARCILLA, !- Construction Name
DPTO 6, !- Zone Name
Zone, !- Outside Boundary Condition
DPTO 6, !- Outside Boundary Condition Object

When the Outside Boundary Condition is "Zone", Energyplus automatically 
creates the surface in the other zone, but in your case it is the same 
zone (DPTO 6). If you actually wanted to use a zone outside boundary 
condition, then you should enter the name of the adjacent zone in the 
Outside Boundary Condition Object.

You might try this:
BuildingSurface:Detailed,
52B6F0, !- Name
Wall, !- Surface Type
M. INTERIOR TERMOARCILLA, !- Construction Name
DPTO 6, !- Zone Name
Adiabatic, !- Outside Boundary Condition
, !- Outside Boundary Condition Object

You should also probably fix this warning:

** Warning ** GetInternalHeatGains: People=ZONA 1", Activity Level 
Schedule Name never exceeds 1.0 W/person.
** ~~~ ** Schedule="ALWAYS ON". Expected range of values is 70 to 1000 
W/person.

People,
Zona 1, !- Name
DPTO 1, !- Zone Name
Always On, !- Number of People Schedule Name
People, !- Number of People Calculation Method
3, !- Number of People
, !- People per Zone Floor Area {person/m2}
, !- Zone Floor Area per Person {m2/person}
0.5, !- Fraction Radiant
0.6, !- Sensible Heat Fraction
Always On, !- Activity Level Schedule Name

Schedule:Compact,
Always On, !- Name
Fraction, !- Schedule Type Limits Name
Through: 12/31, !- Field 1
For: AllDays, !- Field 2
Until: 24:00, !- Field 3
1.0; !- Field 4

The activity level schedule should look more like this example and you 
can change the activity level throughout the day, week, month, or year:
Schedule:Compact,
Activity Schedule, !- Name
Any Number, !- Schedule Type Limits Name
Through: 12/31, !- Field 1
For: AllDays, !- Field 2
Until: 24:00, !- Field 3
113; !- Field 4

** Warning ** GetInternalHeatGains: People="ZONA 4", specifies People 
per Zone Floor Area, but that field is blank. 0 People will result.

People,
Zona 4, !- Name
DPTO 4, !- Zone Name
Always On, !- Number of People Schedule Name
People/Area, !- Number of People Calculation Method
3, !- Number of People
---- , !- People per Zone Floor Area {person/m2}

You should also verify the surface coordinates in zones with this message:
** Severe ** Problem in interior solar distribution calculation (CHKBKS)
** ~~~ ** Solar Distribution = FullInteriorExterior will not work in 
Zone=ALMACEN Y SALA DE MAQUINAS
** ~~~ ** because vertex 1 of back surface=BAB1E6 is in front of 
receiving surface=87F29A
** ~~~ ** (Dot Product indicator=21.8568)
** ~~~ ** Check surface geometry; if OK, use Solar Distribution = 
FullExterior instead.
