[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Easy question - Very thick massive external floor

Hi Jean,
I am asking more than I am pretending to know here! Just for the sake of understanding the thinking process.

I dunno but if your looking for a best match, why not model the garage. Is it conditionned? at constant temp or not? I would guess that the temperature of the garage is not allowed to go below a certain temp in cold season but it can get hotter in the summer. Modeling it would provide you with its interaction on the zone above.
What do you think? 
it probably doesn't represent much more modeling effort.
