[EnergyPlus_Support] Snowmelt





Has anyone used EnergyPlus to model snowmelt?  Snow-melting is mentioned under "GroundHeatExchanger:Surface", but I am skeptical about actually using this object to melt snow.  Does this object model the additional heat lost from the surface in order to melt snow?  Does it model the insulating properties of the snow if the slab is not warm enough to melt the snow?

I'm looking for any feedback, ideas or discussion.

Thanks!
