[EnergyPlus_Support] Interior adjusted window severe error

[Σωτήρης Παπαντωνίου <sotos.enveng@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello list,

 we are receiving an error for a building we are simulating. All the windows (interiors) are having the same problem. It is a window that connects two zones. Can you give us a possible cause of the error which is obviously affecting the results of the simulation.

  ** Severe  ** Problem in interior solar distribution calculation (CHKBKS)
   **   ~~~   **    Solar Distribution = FullInteriorExterior will not work in Zone=KE_IS_NOT_01
   **   ~~~   **    because vertex 1 of back surface=93327F is in front of receiving surface=B86747

   **   ~~~   **    (Dot Product indicator=0.2570)
   **   ~~~   **    Check surface geometry; if OK, use Solar Distribution = FullExterior instead.

Thank you in advance

Sotiris Papantoniou
