Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Tubular Daylighting Device

[Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

so your dome and diffuser should be on the same surface, you
think?  that is, both attached to the roof.

(have you tried it?)

you could also put a small celing surface that is not connected to
anything to put the diffuser in if you want.  (suspended --
buildings in EnergyPlus don't actually have to be built....)

I looked quickly on the helpdesk and did not see any specifically asking
your question -- I saw a few where there were mismatched areas or other
issues.
