RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Internal Mass approximations




Getting there?.



So far no one has addressed the question of how to model internal mass from carpet, furniture, equipment and internal walls (or whether to bother).

I think that perhaps not only the mass, but surface area may be a factor?  any thoughts from the E+ community?



Thanks to all!

Thanks to several of you for the suggestion to use the Zone object?s Multiplier field.  Zone Multiplier, it seems, will multiply all of the walls and windows as well as the internals, so that will work.
