Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Inside Temperature on Year basis





Try a 2 yr simulation. The last line in the RunPeriod object.

  RunPeriod,
    RUN,                     !- Name
    1,                       !- Begin Month
    1,                       !- Begin Day of Month
    12,                      !- End Month
    31,                      !- End Day of Month
    Sunday,                  !- Day of Week for Start Day
    No,                      !- Use Weather File Holidays and Special Days
    No,                      !- Use Weather File Daylight Saving Period
    Yes,                     !- Apply Weekend Holiday Rule
    Yes,                     !- Use Weather File Rain Indicators
    Yes,                     !- Use Weather File Snow Indicators
    1;                       !- Number of Times Runperiod to be Repeated

Hi!
I have a quick question. I'm simulating a modelhome with some properties like volume, wall and roof construction (massive, stone wall and roof), glasssurface, windows,...
When I simulate the inside Temperature on a year basis, I notice that there is a big gap between the temperature on the begining of the year (more or less -2 degrees Celcius) and the end of the year (mor or less +6 degrees Celcius). It seems the building is warming up. Shouldn't the temperature line be fluently at the gap old-new year?
I already changed the Warming Up days to the maximum, but that doesnt change a thing. The building stays "cold" when simulating begins, and ends up "warm".

Any help? That would be fantastic :)

Greetings from Belgium.
