Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Creating a Shadowing Transmittance Schedule for a overhang





Because at the beginning of the simulation, the program checks your schedule fro you. Since you only have 1 value, it "reminds" you that the transmittance is not changing and you shuold check it and make sure it's correct. But it doesn't matter since you are changing the schedule with the EMS. If you want this message to go away, change your schedule to have at least 2 values, a 0 and a 1. The EMS is just going to override this schedule any way.

Hi!

The thing is I dont want the shading te be transparant all the time, i want its transparancy to change as the EMS changes the schedule. So not value 1 all the time, but changing values between 0 and 1 so the zone mean air temperature changes too.

The report of the schedule is alright though, i checked it and the values are as i wanted them to be. Why doe the program keeps saying the shading is transparant (1) all the time?

I dont get it...

Greetings
Pieter
